Slipknot have announced their North American 'Here Comes The Pain Tour' to celebrate 25 years of their debut album
Slipknot announce 'Here Comes The Pain Tour' to celebrate 25 years of their debut album with a North American tour.
Slipknot are celebrating the 25th anniversary of their self-titled debut album with a comprehensive North American tour titled 'Here Comes The Pain Tour'.
The band will be accompanied by Knocked Loose on all dates, with Orbit Culture joining the first leg and Vended, a band featuring Corey Taylor and Shawn “Clown” Crahan's sons, supporting on the second leg. Tickets for the tour will go on sale on May 3 at 10 AM local time.
Reflecting on the 25 years since the album's release, guitarist Jim Root shared, “We loved what we did with the first record but we didn't even know if there was gonna be anything after that. We just wanted people to hear it. Selling out of records and shows, having successful tours– those are goals for any band. But the dream scenario in some ways, came true for us.”
Founding member Shawn “Clown” Crahan commented on the personal connection the band strives to maintain with their fans: “Every time I've walked on stage, it's never been about how many people have been there because my culture, the maggots, always show up," he explained. “But as we’ve grown as a band, we have had fewer and fewer of those intimate, personal moments, trading them for massive ones. So we're gonna make it more personal on the anniversary, but how remains to be seen. Just get ready to have your face kicked in. Because we just do what we do, spread that maggot culture – that disease. And you've been infected.”
