Slipknot has announced a new album, WE ARE NOT YOUR KIND, due out on August 9. It’s the masked metal act’s first new release in five years, following 2014’s .5: The Gray Chapter. The band has also posted a video for the album’s first single, “Unsainted,” directed by ‘knot member Clown (born M. Shawn Crahan.)
Clown had this to say about the album and video: “These days the art we are making comes with the highest reward, because it’s taken the most time. Almost four years to create this emotion and temperature, and the reward now is nothing short of salvation.”
Slipknot will bring this salvation to the masses on a newly-announced world tour, which will run from June through early November. For information on dates and ticketing, visit the band’s website.
The band will also perform on Jimmy Kimmel Live tomorrow (May 17).
