Corey Taylor was recently interviewed by the Des Moines Register about Slipknot’s August 10 show at the Des Moines State Fair and during the chat he talked a bit about the band’s new material. According to him, the music they’re working on is “dark and vicious.”
Taylor said the following
“(It’s) gonna be evil. It’s going to be ridiculous, let’s put it that way.”
He continued:
“[‘All Out Life’ isn’t] nearly as dark and vicious as the rest of the stuff that we have that we’re working on.”
Taylor also discussed the lyrics, saying they were inspired by him maintaining sobriety while dealing with the depression that led to his divorce:
“All I was doing was giving and I found myself absolutely, completely tapped. You could see it in my skin. You could see it in my eyes. That’s basically the journey I’m going to take people on this album … show them what happens to depression when you have no chemicals to fall back on.”
