Slipknot announce European tour for 2021

Slipknot have announced a ton of European dates for summer 2021

Slipknot have announced details of a European tour for next summer.

Kicking off in at Moscow's Park Live Festival in Russia on July 16, the masked maniacs will travel across the continent before ending at the Cabaret Vert Festival in France on August 19.

Following the postponement of Knotfest Japan until 2022, these European dates form the backbone of the 'Knot's live shows for next year. But we wouldn't be surprised if there were more dates added... a UK show perhaps?

2021 could indeed be a very busy one for Slipknot, as last week frontman Corey Taylor revealed that the band were thinking about dropping a new record next year.

“The plan right now with Slipknot is to try and A) finish up the touring next year, and B) we’re thinking about kind of putting another album out maybe next year,” he said. ​“But I don’t know. I don’t know what the plan is yet.

“I just know that we all kind of feel like there’s unfinished business and we wanna finish that out before we do anything. But I know that we were talking about doing it, ​’cause we only have one album left on our contract [with our record label].”

A Slipknot tour and album? That will certainly make up for the painstorm of 2020.
