Slipknot.The record was recorded by the founding member and percussionist – real name Shawn Crahan – alongside Corey Taylor, Sid Wilson and Jim Root at the same time as they were working on 2008’s ‘All Hope Is Gone’.

However, hopes of it being shared have remained unfulfilled and only one track from the sessions has seen the light of day: ‘All Hope Is Gone’ bonus track ‘Til We Die’.Taylor, Root and Clown have all hinted at the release in recent years, and last month the latter revealed to NME that the long-awaited LP was out of his hands and with management for the final steps.Now, in a new interview with Knotfest, the founding member has revealed more information about what fans can expect from the release, and confirmed that it is by no means a Slipknot-sounding record.“It was never a Slipknot album.

Not while it was happening, not while I’ve held onto it for 10 years, and certainly not fuckin’ when it comes out,” he told the outlet.Sharing how they wrote the material while working on ‘All Hope Is Gone’, Clown recalled how the members would be interrupted during the process and put the project on hold to finish up the 2008 release. “We’d see them before they’d see us… We were already there jamming, and heard come somebody down the road, and we’d be like, ‘Fucker’.

It might be the producer [Dave Fortman], and then we’d shoot ball rockets at him. It was a lot of fun. And we just did what you should do.
