Slipknot kicked off their European summer tour last week when they took to the stage at Rockfest in Finland.
Then, at the weekend, the band headed to Germany for an appearance at Hamburg’s Rock Im Park, followed by another headline show Nurburg’s Rock Am Ring. The whole performance was streamed live, and is still available to watch on YouTube (above). The setlist is shown below.
The European shows are the ban's first full-length shows since Knotfest in Chiba, Japan, in November 2016, although they returned to live action last month with a two song set on Jimmy Kimmel Live.
Slipknot revealed their new masks in their video for Unsainted last month. Speaking about the follow-up to 2014’s .5: The Gray Chapter, guitarist Jim Root said: “This is the most time we’ve had to write a record and work stuff out together.
"One of my inspirations this time around was those artists that recorded full length albums – not just songs."
“While the industry is moving toward singles, Slipknot wanted to make an album experience, front to back.”
