SLIPKNOT – “All Out Life” Music Video Released

SLIPKNOT have unleashed a brand new track titled “All Out Life” with an official music video for it now available for your viewing pleasure down below. The band’s frontman Corey Taylor commented on the track:

“‘All Out Life” is a song that is trying to do 2 things: bring everyone together, but also remind everyone that the past is not something to be discarded with disdain. People are so eager to find the Next Big Thing sometimes that they shit all over the bands and artists that have come before, thus making the past feel disposable, like a dirty thing. Fuck that: why should we pay attention to your mediocre future when you can’t be bothered to celebrate an amazing past? I’d rather listen to a guaranteed hit than a forced miss. ‘All Out Life‘ is the anthem that reminds people that it’s not the date on the music- it’s the staying power.”

The group’s percussionist M. Shawn “Clown” Crahan also added:

“Right now is a very exciting time for Slipknot. We’ve been working on new music for the last two years, and ‘All Out Life,’ the song and the video, is just one of many concepts in the works. It’s a fitting taste to get you to the next thing. Get ready for what’s to come. We challenge you to All Out Life.”

As it turns out, the band had been teasing the song via a web app dubbed ‘Touche‘ featured on their social media recently with an official press release stating:

“The song’s presence was first alluded to weeks ago – and regularly, since – in a digital campaign for a web app “Touche,” which featured the tagline ‘Welcome to your all out life!’ The app made no mention of Slipknot, and was a trojan horse, ultimately, set up by the band as a commentary on the public’s willingness to hand over their privacy in exchange for worthless, temporary engagement. Some fans, as expected, rooted out the band’s involvement and took to chat rooms and forums to compare notes and revel in the campaign.”
