Andrei MihaiIt’s a good time to be a metal fan: guitarist Jim Root of Slipknot and Stone Sour recently posted a photo to confirm the band’s studio entrance; previously, vocalist Corey Taylor said they will be starting work on a ‘very heavy album’. Featuring a heavily tattooed arm holding a Fender guitar by a mixing board, the photo on Instagram sends out a pretty clear message that new stuff is on the way; the comment is…
Joey Jardison talks about not leaving Slipknot
Alexandra
Source Joey Jordison Even though at the end of last year, in an interview for Minneapolis radio station 93x, Corey Taylor, Sipknot’s frontman, talked about Joey’s departure, it seems that drummer does not intend to leave the band.

The video went viral, hitting over 12 million views, which apparently lit…

Slipknot Chris Fehn: ‘I Think We’re Going To Overtake Metallica’
Let’s face it, rock it’s not living its best years yet; what’s more, it seems fewer and fewer bands with legendary potential are appearing with every year that passes, and if such a band appears, the odds are it splits right after they make it big.
