Surprise! Slipknot drop new song “All Out Life” (stream)

Get ready to pulverize some pumpkins — Slipknot just dropped a surprise new song, “All Out Life,” presumably off their long-awaited new LP. This marks the band’s first new output since 2014’s .5: The Gray Chapter. 

Here’s what Slipknot frontman Corey Taylor had to say about the track on Zane Lowe’s Beats 1 radio show:

“Everybody talks about toxic masculinity and toxic fandom these days. For me, it’s more about this toxic idea that unless something came out 10 minutes ago, it’s not any good, and that bothers me. It’s, like, I love new music, but at the same time, don’t turn your back on the music that’s been. Don’t turn your back on the people that worked to make a platform for you to have a platform in the first place, so for me, it’s really about … It’s a rallying cry for everyone. It’s about all of us getting together and saying, ‘You know what? Let’s not talk about old. Let’s not talk about new. Let’s talk about what is. Let’s talk about what’s good, what’s real, and get behind that and start embracing things that matter because there’s history there and not just because it’s the next best thing.'”
