Knotfest has expanded into five countries – Japan, Mexico, Colombia, France, and the UK – since it began seven years ago.

“It definitely will happen but it has to be the right thing,” he said. “Right now we do a lot of festivals with a lot of great people and you’ve got to find a time and a zone and it’s got to be right.

“We don’t like to go and mess things up; it’s not about that. It’s about being righteous and pure and it being what it is.”

Today’s announcement comes after Slipknot confirmed an expansion of Knotfest events with a new cruise for next summer. Taking place in August, ‘Knotfest At Sea’ will depart from Barcelona, Spain and will feature two onboard performances from the band.

Slipknot, meanwhile, have been named the most-listened-to group for listeners who are feeling angry, according to a recent study.
