Slipknot percussionist M. Shawn Crahan has confirmed that the band will tour the U.S. next June, and implied that the band has plans to write new material.

Crahan stated via Facebook, “I also wanted to tell everyone straight from my mouth because you may have heard it already anyway, but Slipknot will be touring by next June in America only, but that does not mean things will not change and as they do I will along with others tell you our family first.

Everything happens for a reason, so be ready.”
