Slipknot are in doubts about next album

Slipknot frontman Corey Taylor claimed that he and his bandmates have doubts if they can record new album. Earlier Taylor said that he "cannot see" Slipknot doing another record after the death of bassist Paul Gray, who was found dead in a hotel room in Des Moines, Iowa, in June 2010. However, now he believes that it may happen one day – but definitely not in the near future.

"It's still too soon, at least that's how I feel. I'm not ready to make a Slipknot album, I think there will be a day when we do, but, for me, doing it now wouldn't make sense. You can't do a three week tour then jump into the studio, especially after something like this. It makes more sense to do a few tours and reconnect as a band first", said Corey Taylor.

He added: "If we jumped right in, it wouldn't be about the absence, it would be about the rest of us and it's too soon for that. We were the nine, but there's a piece missing. So we should allow people to pay their respects before we come out with new music. We should do this right".

Slipknot last to date album All Hope Is Gone hit the stores in 2008.
