Between Slipknot and Stone Sour, Corey Taylor is a busy man, but he’s confirmed that Slipknot will be getting to work on a new album next year.
During a recent interview with Musik Universe (via Kerrang) Corey Taylor said the band will “absolutely” be working on a new album in 2019, and they will likely hit the road when it’s done.
“It’s dark. It’s really dark. It’s probably the most autobiographical I’ve been in years. Just for the fact that I’ve been through a lot the last few years and I’ve been sitting on a lot. So I’m writing from the standpoint of where I am now instead of where I was. Which is so easy to tap into sometimes and it’s so easy to just kind of go there almost on impulse. But now, I’m writing it from the standpoint of a man who’s been through a lot – not just a young man, but an older man – and trying to figure things out.”
