Oh my god, they were roomates. In the wake of Slipknot’s latest album release, ‘The End, So Far’, band member “V-Man” recounts living with bandmate Shawn “Clown” Crahan. According to sources at NME, the artist felt it necessary to live with his bandmate for a full six months during the making of ‘The End, So Far’. The band found themselves in quite the pickle during England’s travel restrictions through covid. As leaving the country proved impossible, the band was forced to find alternative routes when collaborating on the latest album. The band mates could not simply hop on a plane and became forced roomates in order to complete their latest work.
“V-man” did not seem to mind these new odd circumstances. The musican reminisces over the homemade meals provided by his band mates wife and the visits made by other band members. The creation of this latest album seemed pleasant for the band members, despite the added pressures of being roomates.
The upcoming year is scheduled to be a productive one for the decades old band. As well as the release of “The End, So Far”, Slipknot will be headlining the upcoming Download Festival. The band will be occompained on the line-up with Metallica and Bring Me The Horizon. Slipknot has also announced a nine date European tour for next June.
