Slipknot frontman Corey Taylor has offered a sobering counterpoint to his bandmates M. Shawn “Clown” Crahan and Jim Root‘s hopes to have a new album out in 2017. Speaking with Rocksvergie.se, Taylor said of the bands plans:
“Well, I mean, we’re gonna finish touring and then we’re gonna take a couple of years off again to, kind of, let everything chill. I’m gonna go do my thing, everybody else’s gonna go, kind of, do their thing. I know Clown‘s got movies that he wants to make, which is very cool. He just wrapped his first feature a couple of months ago, which I’m pretty stoked for him about. So everybody is gonna, kind of, do their thing, and then, in a couple of years, we’ll get back together and see what happens again. Kind of what we used to do… Before we lost Paul, that’s what we would do: we would go for a while and then we would get back together after a couple of years and say, like, ‘All right. What have we got now?’ So I think that’s what we’re gonna do.”
