Anyone been keeping up to date with Slipknot's upcoming album? Thoughts on the new material?

6 songs have been officially released, a couple more have been doing the rounds on Youtube and I think the whole album's leaked on some sites.

Only heard 4 - The Negative One, The Devil in I, Custer and Sarcastrophe.

The middle two are both good, particularly The Devil in I. Not a fan of The Negative One at all. Sarcastrophe is decent.

Not a huge Slipknot fan to be honest, although I do love some of their songs - mainly their more 'radio friendly' songs such as Before I Forget, Duality, Psychosocial, Snuff etc.

Cannot wait to see these in March.

Words can't express how jealous I am.. I saw them a few years ago and they were incredible, would love to see them again for their new stuff..

I'm so excited for it!

I just hope they don't neglect their self-titled and Iowa when choosing the setlist.

As with most bands that tour after releasing new material, sadly their older songs get left behind a bit, i'd imagine a lot of focus will be on their upcoming album. Unfortunately I don't think i'm gonna get to this tour :frown:

If you have iTunes, there's another 3 songs that you can buy right now (XIX, AOV and Killpop). They're probably on Youtube somewhere as well.

I have to say, "The Negative One" is actually my favourite of the new songs. I prefer the ones with more of an electronic influence (like "Surfacing" & "Spit It Out").

Their new album is easily my favourite of the year. Plus they have Every Time I Die as support which is just perfect. :woo:

It is a solid release for them but it is too long with some songs that just bring the album down.

Disappointing, but not totally awful. Reminded me a little bit of The Amity Affliction's 'The Weigh Down', though not as good.

If anyone's after something a bit different, I discovered these chaps a while ago:

Folk metal from (Inner) Mongolia. People seem to describe them as the Chinese Korpiklaani which I think is pretty fair: the riffs are of a similar style and the vocalists sound quite a bit like Jonne.
