Slipknot has added Jinjer and Vended to their upcoming European tour. The addition of Jinjer to the tour is particularly nice, given the band originally dropped off Slipknot's North American roadshow due to the ongoing war in Ukraine. During that time, Jinjer launched two new t-shirts to raise funds for the people of their home country. These funds have been going to various charities aiding Ukrainians with food and medical supplies, as well as other basic necessities like water. Check both shirts out here.
Slipknot said they were mixing their new record back in February, and as of March were still mixing it. Taylor said in an interview at the time that the record was about halfway mixed and that it should be out sometime this summer. According to DJ Sid Wilson, the new Slipknot record features samples of outer space, and according to drummer Jay Weinberg it features both "the heaviest blues song on earth" and a lot of new experimentation within the band's sound.
