For Surfacing. About the Knot.
NO, I received an e-mail from channel (V) in the latest Heavy Shift newsletter, and it says:
-----------
SPLITKNOT?
-----------
Have Slipknot broke up? The short answer is, NO!
Rumours started flying when the band left No Name Management, the
management company they’ve been with since the band started. Lead singer
Corey Taylor spoke to a radio station in Iowa, USA to clear up the mess,
"We are not breaking up! We had to make some managerial decisions for
whatever reasons, and we are not breaking up. We're looking for new
management and we're gonna record a new album soon so CALM DOWN!"
In other Slipknot news, Corey’s also recorded a solo track for the
upcoming soundtrack to the Spiderman movie. The track is titled ‘Bother’
and here’s what he told Rock Sound Magazine UK about it:
“I've been trying to get on this soundtrack for a year! Anyone who
knows me knows I am the biggest Spiderman freak of all time! I started
putting the word out and said I'd do a song with someone else just to be on
that soundtrack, that's how much it meant to me! I've been waiting
since 1993 for this movie to come out and I had this song called 'Bother',
which is me and an acoustic guitar."
“Last year I was like, '**** it, I'll record it'. If nothing else it'd
be just for me to have on record. So I recorded this song, sent it to
my manager, he heard it and was like, 'Holy shit' and he took it to the
girl who was putting the soundtrack together. She flipped, and so
automatically I'm flying to LA to record this song and it was weird! It was
the first time I've ever been in the studio doing anything by myself
and on a professional level. It came out really good. This is a song I
wrote seven years ago so I'm pretty happy with it!"
And Papa Roach have recorded a tribute song to Slipknot turntablist Sid
Wilson. The track, ‘Singular Indestructible Droid’, will appear on
their new album, 'Lovehatetragedy', out in a few months.
