They are headlining download in July, so it can't be that long of a hiatus.

It's better to go this route than the Gene Simmons route to be honest.

I thought they already were on hiatus.

they basically were. came back for a few live shows and are now pissing off again. tbh I wouldn't be
surprised if they never actually write a 5th album. Some of the band members have said writing is in
full swing, others have said they haven't even started. It seems like the whole unity of the band went
to pot when paul gray died

When All Hope is Gone came out, the guy who beats on the trashcans said in an interview with ultimate guitar "It's just beginning man we haven't even written our black album yet"

so I still like this band, they have written some very memorable and catchy shit.

All Hope is gone was alright, I enjoyed it, but I never expected the band to go much further than that to be honest. Oh well, i was looking forward to the day they would announce that production had begun.

will be another 3 years minumum, infinite years maximum.

If they don't release another album I'll be satisfied, their discog is pretty good already and fans might not enjoy the reality of a replacement Paul Gray.

Yes because slipknot albums have always been known for their strong instrumentation and song structure.

Call me crazy, but I still like Slipknot. "All Hope Is Gone" wasn't that great, but it wasn't terrible...a lot better than other bands in their same genre, whatever you call it anyway. I'm not disappointed though, "Surfacing" is a good song to play when you're pissed.
