The album, described as “experimental” and “melodic” by frontman Corey Taylor , was recorded during the sessions for 2008’s All Hope Is Gone .
Despite first being teased by Crahan in 2018, it is yet to see the light of day.
The 54-year-old has offered yet another update on the record to Andy’s Hall Access, claiming that it will come out this year.
“The only reason why it’s not been out is because it’s a timeless album,” Crahan explains (via Metal Injection ).
“It can be released 10 years ago, 10 years from now, today, so on and so forth.”
The percussionist adds that the artwork, mixing and mastering for the album is all complete, but says Slipknot are still yet to find a decent release window so that the project can be properly promoted.
Crahan also admits that the repeated delays have made Look Outside Your Window something of a running joke among certain Slipknot members.
“I sort of put my foot down because I’m tired of hearing everybody – not the fans or yourself, but guys in the band that are on it,” he says.
“It’s been so long now that they just laugh. And I laugh too, but I do believe we’re gonna get it out this year.”
Look Outside Your Window was originally slated for a Christmas 2019 release.
After that date came and went, Crahan stated it would be released during the touring cycle for 2019’s We Are Not Your Kind .
The album had still not materialised by the release of 2022’s The End, So Far .
Crahan then stated in January 2023 that Look Outside Your Window would come out “very soon after” Slipknot left longtime label Roadrunner Records in April 2023.
At time of writing, the only song from Look Outside Your Window currently available to the public is ’Til We Die . The track was released as part of the deluxe edition of All Hope Is Gone .
Slipknot will begin a blockbuster world tour next month, commemorating the 25th anniversary of their self-titled debut album. See the full list of dates below.
The band have teased that they will soon release a new single called Long May You Die .
The track will be their first with drummer Eloy Casagrande and their new, as-yet-unnamed keyboard player.
