Corey Taylor has taken a brief diversion from promoting new Slipknot album The End, So Far this week by touching down in the UK for some solo dates. On Monday night (October 17), Taylor and his band played London's historic Palladium, smashing through an entertaining, 20-song set that featured songs from across Taylor's career, covers of rock and punk classics and even an iconic children's TV theme.

Perhaps unsurprisingly, some of the loudest reactions Taylor received on the night were when he dusted off two Slipknot classics to the delight of a raucous audience.

First up was All Hope Is Gone cut Snuff, before an airing of classic 'Knot breakthrough anthem Wait And Bleed, taken from the Iowan legends' 1999 debut self-titled album.

You can watch fan-filmed footage of both performances below. Check out the full setlist from Taylor's London show just below that.
