Slipknot Announce North American Tour And Reveal Album Release Date

It's official! After days of teasing, Slipknot have announced their Knotfest Roadshow headline tour of North America.

The 29-date trek across the United States and Canada kicks off on July 26 at the Shoreline Amphitheater in Mountain View, California, and continues through to the Cynthia Woods Mitchell Pavilion in The Woodlands, Texas on September 8.

Slipknot aren't alone on this roadshow though, they're joined on the carnival of horrors by Volbeat, Behemoth and Gojira.

But that's not all, Slipknot have also announced that their long-awaited sixth studio album will be released on August 9 – the date before they headline Iowa State Fair. Now that's a party we want to go to!

Every pair of tickets for the 2019 Slipknot tour comes with a digital copy of the as-yet-untitled new album. Keep your eyes on Kerrang! for more album details when they're announced.

Tickets go on sale Friday March 8 at 10am local time.
