Frontman, Corey Taylor adds:
ā€œEven with everything going on in the world right now, weā€™re still extremely excited to come back out in the states, with 2 different, exciting packages.

Come celebrate with us, and try to stay as safe as we will be.ā€

2021 marked a banner year for Slipknot. Making a triumphant return to the road, their Knotfest Roadshow 2021 tour sold out amphitheaters across the country, bookended with the record-breaking Knotfest Iowa and the biggest headline show of their career, Knotfest Los Angeles at Banc of California Stadium where they debut their first new music in two years – the furious ā€˜The Chapeltown Ragā€™ taken from the highly anticipated new Slipknot album, expected to release this year. In addition, they topped the bills of multiple, internationally renowned festivals including Riot Fest, Rocklahoma, Inkcarceration, Welcome To Rockville, and more.

The tour will be part of Live Nationā€™s Live Stubs initiative which provides digital collectible NFT ticket stubs to ticket holders, which are free with ticket purchase (These are collector items and will not replace the digital tickets needed to physically enter the show). Fans can view, share, gift, trade, and resell their live stubs on Livenation.com

About Slipknot

Slipknot sit alongside musical institutions like Metallica and Iron Maiden, as one of a select few bands whose legacy is secured within heavy music’s elite. The band emerged at the end of the 20th Century from the American mid-western town of Des Moines, IA and quickly established themselves as the most enigmatic, provocative and aggressive music collective of the modern era. 1999ā€™s eponymous debut is widely viewed as a modern day classic and was honoured by Metal Hammer magazine as the ā€˜Best Debut of the Last 25 Years.ā€™  The release racked up double RIAA platinum certification in the US, with many of Slipknotā€™s subsequent releases achieving platinum status both in the US and around the globe.  To date, the band have been nominated for 10 Grammy Awards (winning in 2006 for ā€˜Before I Forgetā€™), as well as scoring 12 Platinum and 41 Gold album certifications around the world and over 3.2 billion YouTube views and counting. Slipknotā€™s fanbase is as unwavering as it is ubiquitous – the bandā€™s most recent studio album, 2019ā€™s ā€˜We Are Not Your Kindā€™ debuted at #1 in the Official Album Charts of 12 countries around the world, including the US, UK, Australia, Canada and Mexico and in the Top 5 of an additional 12 countries including Germany, France and Sweden.

About Knotfest

Knotfest is Slipknotā€™s own self-curated, destination festival brand, currently held in four international locations; the US, Japan, Mexico and Colombia, with the inaugural Brazilian event set to happen in December 2021.  Plans for the first UK event are still underway, having been postponed in 2019 by Covid-19 restrictions.  Designed as an immersive, unforgettable, ā€˜dark carnival experienceā€™, the event invites you into Slipknotā€™s apocalyptic underworld where stunning visuals, fire breathers and nightmarish creatures on stilts set the stage for an intoxicating and memorable weekend of live music.

About Cypress Hill

Three decades ago, B-Real, Sen Dog, and DJ Muggs sparked a trip that left popular culture stoned, stunned, and staggering in anticipation for more. Naming themselves after a local street in Los Angeles, Cypress Hill burst on the scene in 1991 with the release of their self-titled debut album. The singles ā€œHow I Could Just Kill a Manā€ and ā€œThe Phuncky Feel Oneā€ became underground hits, and the groupā€™s public pro-marijuana stance earned them many fans among the alternative rock community. Cypress Hill followed their debut with Black Sunday in the summer of 1993, which debuted at #1 on Billboardā€™s Top 200, garnered three GRAMMYĀ® Award nominations, and went triple platinum in the U.S. As a result, Cypress Hill became the first rap group to have two albums in the top 10 of the Billboard 200 charts at the same time and are the first Latino-American hip-hop group to achieve platinum and multi-platinum success. Since the release of Black Sunday, Cypress Hill have put out seven more albums including 2018ā€™s critically acclaimed, Elephants on Acid. Cypress Hill made history once again in 2019 when the group was honored with their very own star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.  In 2021, Cypress Hill released ā€œChampion Sound.ā€ Produced by Black Milk, the single appears on the soundtrack of R.B.I Baseball 21 and is also the featured song for the bandā€™s partnership with Montejo Cerveza. 2021 also saw Cypress Hill celebrate the 30th anniversary of their self-titled debut this year with a SONY reissue on vinyl, 7-inch box set, a reissue across all DSPā€™s that includes eight unreleased tracks, as well as a graphic novel and their very own STANCE sock.


Cypress Hill continue to be busier than ever in 2022. The band will release a new album this spring and have already dropped three singles, ā€œChampion Sound,ā€ ā€œOpen Ya Mind,ā€ and ā€œBye Bye.ā€  Their ā€œHits From The Bongā€ documentary, which is part of Mass Appealā€™s ā€œHip Hop 50ā€ franchise in partnership with Showtime, will also be released this year.

About Ho9909

Ho99o9 [HORROR] is a volatile conflagration of digital hardcore punk, gritty trap-infused hip hop, then cross-contaminated with explosive elements of industrial, electronic, metal, and noise. The experimental Avant-grarde project originated in New Jersey by Yeti Bones & theOGM, and is currently joined by drummer Billy Rymer of The Dillinger Escape Plan. Ho99o9 has built a cult-like following over the last decade, perpetually blazing around the globe laying waste with their legendary, visceral, live performances. Ho99o9ā€™s completely unique and uncompromising style has created its own lane for the future of heavy, alternative music.
