After Recovering From COVID-19, Corey Taylor Has Three Slipknot Songs to Record

Corey Taylor, Slipknot’s frontman announces that he only has three songs left to record for the band’s upcoming album. Taylor, who recently shared his positive COVID results, told fans at GalaxyCon some details about the upcoming 2022 release.

Corey Taylor shares his thoughts on how COVID has affected him as he finishes the album: “I was actually supposed to finish my vocals this week. I got screwed, man, [by the COVID diagnosis]. I actually only have really three songs left to do. I’ve done all the other tracks because I’ve been doing ’em in between tours, just fucking hitting it.”

As of last month, Taylor hinted at “pit openers” that would be in the 2022 release. He also said, “It’s an expansion of where we were at on We Are Not Your Kind. This band has always prided itself on expanding boundaries, expanding our musical vision,” according to consequence.
