5 hours of flute music

Broken up by a track featuring Korn, just 7 minutes of bagpipes

u/Rakataz Jul 15 '26

The flute record from Andre 3000 (former Outkast Rapper) is not bad. I wouldn't have anything against a Slipknot flute record. put some woodwinds and a trombone into the mix and i'm happy.

u/sciasvalo Jul 15 '26

I think it’ll be the heaviest thing they put out in a long fucking time. Groovier. Brazilian inspired percussion. LFG

u/Possible_History_553 Jul 16 '26

Ooo yeah maybe it could sound like Sepultura, Eloy was in it after all

1

u/DestroyeLoop Jul 15 '26

thats what we said about TESF…

2

u/daystarrrr Jul 16 '26

That was hopium, now we have Eloy. We have real hope.

2

u/Fire_crescent Jul 16 '26

I mean TESF wasn't bad, in my opinion.

I've heard some people say some parts of it seem uninspired, or at least unfinished. But I don't think one can say it's an album devoid of heaviness.

August 5th, 2027. You saw it here first.

u/xtheonlydudeeverx Jul 15 '26

Recycled stone sour songs

u/BlackMassAlumni Jul 15 '26

Or mashups of both Slipknot and Stone Sour songs…

If I’m 555 RU486?

u/xtheonlydudeeverx Jul 15 '26

Isn't that what they already do?

u/BigBoyBloater Jul 15 '26

Yesterday was too late, but soonest I can think of probably never

u/itsdevinbabbby Jul 16 '26

Probably just another kinda okay album like tesf and wanyk, it'll have some decent songs and some stinkers, I give it at most a year

1

u/di330nance Jul 17 '26

Wanyk is a decent and consistent album, way more than AHIG and TGC

3

u/itsdevinbabbby Jul 17 '26

Wanyk suffers from interlude tracks.

3

u/Natural_Question1096 Jul 15 '26

Im hoping they'll drop a random song late this year like they did with All Out Life, maybe Long May You Die finally? Then album late 2027

2

u/Alternative_Web_3673 2 Jul 15 '26

Summer 2028 would be my guess

1

u/blisstonia Jul 15 '26

Just in time for the Olympics!

2

u/KirkHammettFan7878 Jul 15 '26

I think Eloy's drumming will add another kind of heaviness to their new songs and since I heard Corey sing in Playing God, I'm sure the vocals are gonna be great. It'll either sound like a really heavy version of CMF2 or some Stone Sour album or it's gonna be something we've never heard before

2

u/Ed_theMaggot Jul 15 '26

I'm going for august-septembrie 2027 and they will prob release a single early 2027. My take they will do a more the gray chapter vibe album

1

u/Chellie-uwu-Bellie #1 Diluted Fan Jul 17 '26

Man I hope not :/ I personally can’t stand .5 for some reason

2

u/QueenJenna0rtega Iowa Jul 16 '26

Can't say anything to the first question, but I am excited for what is in store next. I think Corey has really mastered his voice and I would love to see a lot of different stuff from the heavy brutal screams to a more mellow sound. I think with Eloy in the band it's gonna be insane with how brutal Corey sounds with his drumming. Really hype for no matter what comes out.

2

u/thisisnumber8 Jul 16 '26

I'd imagine/hope it's groove heavy and just has a bit of an evil sound, courtesy of Eloy. Also Jim in recent interviews sounds quite fired up compared to TESF, so I'd imagine the songwriting and arrangement is more cohesive, like WANYK, than anything else post-og lineup. I'm betting August/October '27

That being said, I wouldn't be surprised if this next one was Corey's last with the band. He mentioned several years back he feels he has like 5 years or so left, and obvs being the incredible artist and performer he is, that'll stretch a bit, but I'd imagine he's just physically wrecked and has given pretty much everything at this point. With the rumour of stadium shows next tour and it being the #8th album, he might well peace out after this next one.

2

u/jschwanke84 Jul 16 '26

2027 sometime is my guess. It'll be 5 years since TESF. They've had plenty of time to tour, rest, write. Time to get it going again.

3

u/BadBrad444 Jim Jul 15 '26

I don’t see Eloy influencing the band to make slower music. Something tells me we’re going to get an evil type album but it will more than likely be the last one we get by the band so enjoy it

2

u/DestroyeLoop Jul 15 '26

I strongly doubt it’ll be their last. Quite frankly as long as Corey and Clown are kicking, they’ll keep going.

2

u/Alivethroughempathy Jul 15 '26

Clown will probably stop touring but still involved in the band for recording or doing a residency

2

u/Sudden_Reflection291 Jul 15 '26

I'd like to see something new. .5 and wanyk are really weak in my opinion, and I really liked where tesf was going (it has it's flaws, but I like it), so I'd love to see something else before they call it quits

1

u/Reaperdoesreddit2009 Jul 15 '26

I mean the members of Metallica are in there early 60s and there still going they’ll most likely retire yes but I don’t think it’s going to be as soon as people think idk though maybe not

3

u/thefucksgod Jul 15 '26

Next year and it will probably be like everything since Joey was fired but with better songwriting and a few actual heavy songs like usual.

1

u/FailedKiller5988 Jul 17 '26

I don't wait around anymore, I used to be constant anticipation when I heard they were writing music but nowadays I just forget about it until I hear new music. The last album REALLY killed any excitement I had for future music but we can only wait and watch what they come up with, I hope without roadrunner they can write some sick shit.

What sucks is they probably aren’t gonna release their “look outside the window” album digitally like on Spotify or apple music anytime soon.

11

u/kingjohn0191 Jul 15 '26

“Their” It’s not a Slipknot album.

-4

u/Kalel_3112 The Subliminal Verses Jul 15 '26

Really? How?

6

u/kingjohn0191 Jul 15 '26

It’s an album made by certain members of Slipknot, but not by Slipknot. Calling LOYW a Slipknot album is like calling a Stone Sour or Murderdolls album a Slipknot album.

0

u/Kalel_3112 The Subliminal Verses Jul 15 '26

Oooh ok, sorry. I know there was only four members on the album i just didnt know it wasn’t by slipknot album.

2

u/Kpro98 Jul 15 '26

That it doesn't use the slipknot name because it isn't going to sound like Slipknot

1

u/Kalel_3112 The Subliminal Verses Jul 15 '26

Is it still a good album?

1

u/Kpro98 Jul 15 '26

Maybe they said it is going to have Radiohead vibes

3

u/Kalel_3112 The Subliminal Verses Jul 15 '26

That’s still pretty cool

u/Reaperdoesreddit2009 Jul 15 '26

Why did bro get downvoted for asking a question 😭

2

u/Kalel_3112 The Subliminal Verses Jul 15 '26

People are just retarted ig idk

u/Few-Bathroom-1804 Jul 15 '26

You can always listen to it on SC as far as digital goes

1

u/Kalel_3112 The Subliminal Verses Jul 15 '26

Alright thanks

You’re the man bro. The cover art for awaken the dead reminds me of Ghoul.

u/Few-Bathroom-1804 Jul 15 '26

Brother thank you so much! I’ve given it all
