Slipknot‘s highly anticipated and long-awaited sixth LP, We Are Not Your Kind, is officially out today.
Guitarist Jim Root noted, “This is 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.”
“These days the art we are making comes with the highest reward, because it’s taken the most time,” added Crahan. “Almost four years to create this emotion and temperature, and the reward now is nothing short of salvation.”
Slipknot shocked fans around the globe last year with the release of the standalone single, All Out Life. Since release, All Out Life has already racked up over 35 million streams worldwide and 35 million YouTube views.
