THE ANNOUNCEMENT
Four Slipknot members recorded a full album in 2008, shelved it because it didn't sound like Slipknot, and now—18 years later—it's finally getting a proper worldwide release †. Look Outside Your Window was supposed to stay a Record Store Day exclusive, but the 10-track project featuring Clown, Corey Taylor, Jim Root, and Sid Wilson drops on physical formats June 12 †. Only four of the nine members who were in the band during the All Hope Is Gone sessions actually played on this thing †.
THE DETAILS
- Worldwide physical release June 12, 2026 †
- 10 tracks recorded during 2008 All Hope Is Gone sessions, shelved for nearly two decades because the sound diverged too far from the band's core style †
- Seven different physical formats including multiple limited vinyl variants †
- Blue Transparent Leaf-Filled LP limited to 250 copies †
- Golden Pearl LP exclusive to Hot Topic, 750 copies †
- Silver Nugget LP exclusive to Revolver, 500 copies †
- Pre-orders live now through Revolver and Hot Topic †
WHY IT MATTERS
BUCKET LIST. This is the only chance to hear what half of peak-era Slipknot sounded like when they deliberately weren't trying to be Slipknot—material deemed too different to release under the band name. Seven variants for a shelved side project from 2008 is absolutely ridiculous, but at least the music exists now instead of rotting in a vault forever.
