Uncover the Mystery: Slipknot's Lost Album 'Look Outside Your Window' Revealed for Record Store Day 2026
Get ready to embark on a musical journey into the unknown as Slipknot's long-awaited album, 'Look Outside Your Window', finally surfaces for Record Store Day 2026. This 12-inch vinyl, initially recorded as a side project by band members Corey Taylor, Jim Root, Sid Wilson, and Shawn 'Clown' Crahan, is now set to captivate fans worldwide.
Despite not being officially branded as a Slipknot release, 'Look Outside Your Window' is a testament to the band's experimental spirit. Limited to 2,300 copies, the album was crafted during the 2008 sessions for Slipknot's 'All Hope Is Gone', offering a glimpse into a different creative realm. The band members shared their vision: 'We knew we were exploring a unique creative path, distinct from Slipknot, and we embraced it with enthusiasm.'
The project's name, 'Look Outside Your Window', pays homage to the experimental nature of the music. Born from late-night sessions in a secluded farmhouse, the songs evoke a sense of the unknown. The band described the process: 'We peered through a large picture window, pondering what or who might be lurking outside. This sense of mystery permeated the music, free from any rules or constraints. Ideas emerged from anywhere: subtle drum loops, organ snippets, abstract guitar noise, or even samples of frogs and crickets. Guided by emotion and instinct, we let the sounds guide us.'
After years of anticipation, Slipknot's 'Clown' promised in a Discord Q&A that 'Look Outside Your Window' would finally be released in 2026, following missed release dates in 2019, 2023, and 2024. The album's tracklist features:
- 11th March
