Grammy winning metal band, SLIPKNOT, are set to release their fourth album, All Hope is Gone, on August 26th via Roadrunner Records.  The album was recorded this spring in the band’s home state of Iowa and is co-produced by the band and Dave Fortman.

Singer Corey Taylor comments on the album: “Every album we have made is a statement about that space in time. I think this era is the most mature, most beautiful and the most powerful. We have made an album that will show the road behind, the road ahead, and where we are as men. I think it’s the best thing I’ve ever made. And I challenge anyone to prove me wrong.”

The first single “Psychosocial” will be delivered to radio on June 30 and will be available digitally on July 1st. A complete track listing will be announced shortly.

SLIPKNOT are set to partake in the first annual Rockstar Energy Mayhem Festival, alongside DISTURBED, DRAGONFORCE, and MASTODON. The tour kicks off July 9th in Seattle. For a complete list of tour dates and all up-to-date info, visit the official Mayhem Festival website: http://www.mayhemfest.com/
