The KNOTFEST brand reaches ever further around the world, with annual landmark events now held in the US, Japan, Mexico, Colombia, as well as 2019’s debut collaboration with French destination festival, Hellfest for KNOTFEST MEETS HELLFEST and the first ever KNOTFEST ROADSHOW tour which saw SLIPKNOT play to the biggest US crowds in their history. In additional new territory for the brand in 2020, the inaugural KNOTFEST AT SEA cruise (KnotfestAtSea.com) will set sail from Barcelona on 10th August 2020. The cruise will be headlined by SLIPKNOT, who will perform two sets on board the ship with the full line-up announced soon. There will be various on-board experiences, including a live Q&A with members of the band, a Sid DJ/MC Set, a Slipknot Whiskey Tasting & Discussion with Clown (limited capacity), with more experiences still to be announced.

WE ARE NOT YOUR KIND is highlighted by the current single ‘Nero Forte’, ‘Solway Firth,’ and the LP’s lead single ‘Unsainted.’ The three tracks feature an M. Shawn Crahan directed official music video, and each trended worldwide on YouTube (all videos, not just music) – ‘Unsainted’ at #1 worldwide for a full 24 hours.
