Slipknot have surprise released a new single called Bone Church.
The haunting, slow-building ballad marks the Grammy Award-winning metallers' first new music since their 2022 album, 'The End, So Far', but in a statement released alongside the track, percussionist Shawn "Clown" Crahan explained that Bone Church came from the sessions for 2014's '.5: The Gray Chapter'. He said:
"On the road, we have a 'jam room' set up backstage at every show, where we play, practice, warm up and sometimes try out new ideas. Bone Church started life in a jam room on the '.5: The Gray Chapter' tour. We've been bringing it closer and closer to life ever since, and finally, here it is. This one is for the fans — a further vision deeper into Slipknot's history, which is still being written. Enjoy."

Slipknot are due to kick off their world tour in Indonesia on March 19, with dates lined up through the summer, where they'll appear at festivals including Welcome To Rockville, Hellfest and Download, alongside select headline appearances.
