Slipknot Post Chilling Vocal Teaser Clip From the Studio
It was just over one month ago that Corey Taylor shared a photo from the studio, declaring he was back to work on Slipknot's new album. With the August 9 release date getting closer, the band has posted a vocal teaser clip.
The one-minute video below, which was shared on Twitter, shows mixed media clips alongside heavily slowed-down and distorted vocals. At the 28-second mark, text appears on the screen, which reads "SMPTE UNIVERSAL LEADER," though it's not clear what the significance of it is.
While the wait for Slipknot's new album continues, we did get some new vocal work from Taylor in the form of his guest appearance on U.K. rapper Kid Bookie's new track, "Stuck In My Ways." The song is a remake of Kid Bookie's 2018 track and features the Slipknot singer rapping.
