Avec un single, All hope is gone, qui sortira en aout :



An audio sample of the new SLIPKNOT single "All Hope Is Gone" is available at Amazon.com. The track comes off the group's long-awaited new album, which is due on August 26 via Roadrunner Records. Other working songtitles set to appear on the CD include "Moth", "Chapter One", "The Eleventh March", "Dirge", "Dead Memories", "Vendetta" and "Psycho Social".

A heavier track from the new SLIPKNOT album will be sent to metal radio shows this week, with an official rock radio single coming on June 30.

SLIPKNOT frontman Corey Taylor told Billboard.com last month that the group's new album will "rip your face off," adding, "I don't think the world will be ready for this album." The group's yet-to-be-titled fourth effort will follow up 2004's "Vol. 3: (The Subliminal Verses)", with Taylor calling it a "very dark" cross between that and its 2001 sophomore CD, "Iowa". Taylor described the new record as having "so much power in it and yet there are so many great spots for melody...It's a controlled chaos that hits you right out of the gate."

Taylor, who also fronts the more melodic STONE SOUR, said that his vocals are in a similar vein on this SLIPKNOT outing. He explained, "I got to the point where I was tired of pretending that I couldn't sing every time I made a SLIPKNOT album, so this time I'm going all out."

As for the album's lyrical direction, Taylor revealed, "Instead of bitching about what went wrong in my life, I'm bitching about what's wrong in life, period."

New images on SLIPKNOT's official web site have hinted at a change in the masks and costumes that are a trademark of the Iowa-based nine-piece. Taylor described the new outfits as "evolved," adding that they are "very dark and will fit in everything image-wise that we're making with this album."

Slipknot Percussionist Ready To Leave Group


Slipknot rocker M. Shawn 'Clown' Crahan desperately wants to leave the band to spend more time with his family.

The percussionist admits he has become disillusioned with life on the road with the heavy rock group and hopes he will be able to quit or take an extended hiatus.

Crahan's wife Chantal was diagnosed with bowel condition Crohn's disease in 2001, and the star insists he would love to be at home with her and their four children.

He says, "I'm in a really weird place in my life right now. I'm at a point where I wouldn't say I'm having a mid-life crisis but... I'd love to be doing anything other than Slipknot right now.

"I've never wanted to be around my family as much as I want to be around them now. My wife is in the best health she's been in for a long while and I'm enjoying watching my kids grow up.

"I guess I don't know who I am any more and that's pretty scary."

D'après ce que j'ai lu dans le dernier RH, il vire plus mélodique, surtout au niveau des Vocaux.
Pourquoi pas?
A voir, même si je ne suis pas fan...

Ils vont faire du Stonesour bis en fait j'ai l'impression

Oui c'est ce que je pense aussi!

C'est pas ce qui est écrit en tout cas.
Y a un titre où machin ne hurle pas et chante à la Stone Sour. Pour le reste c'est comme d'hab.

Album en écoute là :

Mon fils l'a acheté aujourd'hui, et je profite de son absence pour l'écouter.

Damned !!! Ils chantent à présent ???

Je n'ai pas encore tout écouté, mais je dois avouer que pour l'instant j'aime bien.

Mais je ne suis absolument pas dans le "coeur de cible" de SLIPKNOT, et je pense que ceux qui avaient hurlé au "virage commercial" à la sortie de The subliminal verses (que j'aime beaucoup) vont définitivement clouer au pilori le gang de l'Iowa.

Autre chose que j'apprécie: la qualité du livret et le DVD bonus. Enfin un groupe qui, pour le prix "normal" ("usuel" serait plus approprié) d'un CD, fait des efforts vis à vis de son public.
