Corey Taylor: "Too soon for a new Slipknot album"

Slipknot are still not ready to record a new album, frontman Corey Taylor says. The singer, who has previously stated he "cannot see a new Slipknot album happening", has now changed his mind and has said he believes they will record again "one day", but not for quite some time. "It's still too soon, at least that's how I feel. I'm not ready to make a Slipknot album, I think there will be a day when we do, but, for me, doing it now wouldn't make sense. You can't do a three week tour then jump into the studio, especially after something like this. It makes more sense to do a few tours and reconnect as a band first", said Taylor.



Corey Taylor also spoke again about the impact that the death of bass player Paul Gray had on the band. "We were the nine, but there's a piece missing. So we should allow people to pay their respects before we come out with new music. We should do this right", he stated.
Slipknot will tour in the US later this year and will also take part in Brazilian festival Rock In Rio.
