It’s Gonna Come Out. You Have My Word

Slipknot recorded two albums in 2008 – All Hope Is Gone and the often-talked-about and however by no means launched Look Exterior Your Window. Look Exterior Your Window options vocalist Corey Taylor, guitarist Jim Root, percussionist Shawn “Clown” Crahan, and DJ Sid Wilson, and has been described as a massive departure from the band’s usually-aggressive sound.

Look Exterior Your Window was initially slated for release on Christmas Day 2019, and then again for sometime after April 2023. Percussionist M. Shawn “Clown” Crahan assured followers final 12 months that Look Exterior Your Window is definitely coming in 2024, although it is but to floor.

So what is the deal? In a brand new interview with Andy Corridor, Clown stated Look Exterior Your Window has paintings and is each blended and mastered, and that it will be out ultimately. Clown notes in his reply that Look Exterior Your Window “wants its personal area and to not share with anyone or the rest,” which makes 2024 really feel slightly unlikely given Slipknot‘s ongoing celebration of their 1999 self-titled debut album.

“The one purpose why it is not been out is as a result of it is a timeless album,” stated Clown. “It may be launched 10 years in the past, 10 years from now, at the moment, so on and so forth. And the primary purpose, and this feels like B.S., however that is the reality, each time we have gotten it to a spot the place we have been gonna pull the set off, life has thrown the band via a circumstance of some types. For example, the paintings’s executed, the blending is finished, the mastering is finished — it is all executed. However we like to advertise issues so everybody will get that likelihood. After which what occurs is one thing like COVID hits after which perhaps somebody within the band goes and does different issues.

“So what we have gotta do is we have gotta put our consideration to these issues. And we’re not attempting to make Look Exterior Your Window that has to pressure issues to cease, however different issues are making it cease, ‘trigger we’re not making it a precedence. However I form of put my foot down as a result of I am bored with listening to all people — not the followers or your self, however guys within the band which are on it. It has been so lengthy now that they simply snicker. And I snicker too, however I do consider we’re gonna get it out this 12 months. I do not see it as one among these items… It isn’t like we’re gonna go tour it. That does not imply we can’t play some exhibits; I do not know. But it surely’s actually only a present for ourselves.

“So, I actually prefer it. It’s gonna come out. You could have my phrase. There is no drama. It wants its proper time. It wants its personal area and to not share with anyone or the rest. So it has its due time on this actuality. In order that’s all I can say.”
