CLOWN Gives An Update On SLIPKNOT's Look Outside Your Window

Slipknot recorded two albums way back in 2008 – All Hope Is Gone, which got released; and the unreleased album Look Outside Your Window featuring vocalist Corey Taylor, guitarist Jim Root, percussionist Shawn "Clown" Crahan, and DJ Sid Wilson. It seems like every year Slipknot fans get promised that Look Outside Your Window will see the light of day, with this year being no exception.

So what's the deal with Look Outside Your Window in recent times? According to Clown in an interview with Vulture, the album is largely completed in terms of art and post-recording activities. When asked about unreleased material, Clown revealed he recently approved the artwork for the album and has "worked really hard to get it mixed and mastered."

"Oh my God. I don't even know where to begin," said Clown "I mean, there's audio, and then there's video too. We have tons of incomplete concepts, some just under completion. There's a lot of Slipknot I wish the culture could have. There is so much I create throughout my career but very, very little is actually put out there.

"Someone recently brought up the album Look Outside Your Window. It was a piece of art Corey Taylor, Jim Root, Sid Wilson, and myself created in 2008. We made it up the hill from the studio that we recorded All Hope Is Gone in, in Perry, Iowa. No one believes that it even exists, or that it's ever going to come out. I've always talked very highly of it and I've always said that you will never hear Corey Taylor sing like this. It's just a whole different approach in my mind. Recently, I approved all the art. I've also worked really hard to get it mixed and mastered."

I'd say prepare yourselves because it sounds like Look Outside Your Window is imminent, but it's also seemed to be that way since 2019.
