Slipknot guitarist Jim Root offered some commentary on the band’s processes around We Are Not Your Kind:
“This is the most time we’ve had to write a record, and work stuff out together. One of my inspirations this time around was those artists that recorded full length albums – not just songs. While the industry is moving toward singles, SLIPKNOT wanted to make an album experience, front to back.”
Slipknot are soon to begin an extensive campaign of touring that will last for the next several months. They will first visit Europe, including being one of the headliners of the 2019 UK Download Festival at Donington Park (get your Download tickets here). Upon their return to the US, they will embark on the first Knotfest Roadshow tour, supported by Volbeat, Gojira and Behemoth. Lastly, they are heading down under to Australia and New Zealand as special guests to none other than Metallica!
