SLIPKNOT have unveiled a music video for their new single “The Dying Song (Time To Sing)”, directed by M. Shawn “Clown” Crahan. The track is taken from the band’s upcoming album “The End, So Far”, due for release on September 30th via Roadrunner Records.
Speaking about the forthcoming album, Crahan asserted: “New Music, new art, and new beginnings. Get ready for the end.”
Produced by SLIPKNOT and Joe Barresi, “The End, So Far” includes the band’s 2021 surprise single “The Chapeltown Rag” and follows their widely celebrated 2019 album “We Are Not Your Kind”, which marked SLIPKNOT’s third consecutive No. 1 on the Billboard 200. The release made a massive global impact with No. 1 debuts in the official album charts of twelve countries around the world, including the U.K., Australia, Canada and Mexico, with Top 5 debuts in an additional twelve countries including Germany, France and Sweden.
In February, singer Corey Taylor told SiriusXM’s “Trunk Nation With Eddie Trunk” about the musical direction of the new SLIPKNOT material: “It’s really killer, man. It’s darker than ‘We Are Not Your Kind’, but there’s a ton of melody. I’ve been telling everybody that it’s like a heavier version of ‘Vol. 3: (The Subliminal Verses)’. It’s got so many textures and layers. The heavy stuff has attack but the melodic stuff you can just sink your teeth in; there’s a lot of great melodies and hooks. I’m really, really excited for people to hear it.”
SLIPKNOT are set to kick off their European tour tonight in Bucharest with support from JINGER and VENDED. The tour will run until mid-August with performances in Athens, Prague, Wacken and more.
