US metal giants Slipknot are currently working on their new album, which is currently in the mixing stage.

Now, in an interview with WZOR, the band’s drummer Jay Weinberg talked a bit about the content of the new album. According to Weinberg, the album will feature “the heaviest blues song in the world” and a lot of new experimentation within the band’s sound.

“I would say we kind of turned up the dials on experimentation. And there’s some new things happening that are really exciting, really interesting, stuff that maybe I wouldn’t have even expected us to pull out of our hat. We’ve got a song that’s like the heaviest blues song on earth, and stuff like that that’s super exciting to hear what the guys are doing. Then, once we’re working on the instrumental for a while, then we get to hear what Corey brings to the table and how that elevates things and turns things into newer and better and whatever… It’s very exciting to hear that kind of taking shape”, Weinberg says.

According to Corey Taylor the band’s new album should be out sometime during the summer.
