Slipknot have announced details of their first-ever livestream, and it'll be taking place as they headline Knotfest Los Angeles in November for their biggest headline performance to date!

In other ’Knot news, Corey Taylor revealed earlier this month that the band's new album – the follow-up to 2019's We Are Not Your Kind – is almost finished.
"It’s pretty much done," he teased. "I’d say it’s probably about 80 per cent done. We’re finishing up some music, [and] I’ve got a couple more songs to sing. However, I will say this: don’t be surprised if in the next month or so you hear something new."
The frontman also added that their first single would have more of a "let’s bludgeon everybody and remind them why we’re still Slipknot" vibe.
