August 19, 2008

A Texas radio station conducted an interview with SLIPKNOT percussionist Shawn "Clown" Crahan when the band's Rockstar Mayhem Energy Festival tour recently passed through the state. The five-minute clip, which includes interview footage with some of the group's fans, can be viewed below.

SLIPKNOT's new album, "All Hope Is Gone", is scheduled for release on August 26. In addition to the standard edition of "All Hope Is Gone", a special edition of the LP will be released featuring three bonus tracks, expanded artwork and a bonus DVD containing "Nine: The Making Of All Hope Is Gone" — a 35-minute documentary directed by SLIPKNOT percussionist Shawn "Clown" Crahan.

SLIPKNOT will premiere "All Hope Is Gone" on the nationally syndicated radio show "Rockline" with host Bob Coburn on Monday, August 25 at 8:30 p.m. PT / 11:30 p.m. ET. Fans are encouraged to speak with the band by calling 1-800-344-ROCK (7625).
