Could Slipknot be touring with All That Remains?
An innocent tweet from a fan may have just led to the possibility of one of the coolest tours of 2019: Slipknot and All That Remains.
A Twitter user took to his account to post an ideal collaboration. “Just sitting here waiting for an @CoreyTaylorRock and an @philthatremains collab,” the post reads.

All That Remains frontman Phil Labonte responded to the tweet, echoing the user’s sentiment.
“I just wanna tour with him. [Stone Sour] or Slipknot,” Labonte says.
I just wanna tour with him. SS or Slipknot.

Corey Taylor eventually chimed in with, “We’re gonna make this happen.”

The duo discussed the possibility back and forth with Taylor eventually stating it would have to be in 2019.
“Might have to be next year. But you know what that means. We’ll talk soon. #2019,” he tweets.

The timeframe is perfect for All That Remains who will have their new record out, and according to Labonte, “it’s a pretty heavy one.”
We will have a new record out, my dude. And it’s a pretty heavy one. Just let us know, we’re in.

Taylor recently revealed some more details about the masked metal band’s upcoming album, their first since 2014’s .5: The Gray Chapter. Maggots take note: Taylor says their sixth full-length, due next year, will be heavy like Iowa.
That’s right, the Slipknot vocalist references the band’s 2001 sophomore milestone when fielding some fan queries about the group’s next long-player during a recent Q&A session with Kerrang.
“This is Iowa levels of heavy,” Taylor says at one point in the chat, clearly displaying his enthusiasm for the new material. “And I have to go out and tour this shit at my age. I can feel those songs in my back! I am really, really excited about it.”
As far as the future plans of both bands, fans are so here for the possibility of a tour, and we couldn’t agree with them more.
Take my money now ????

You know how many times I travelled for the SS tour? And do you know how many times I’d travel if it was an ATR & SS tour?? Probably double that. THAT WOULD BE A LITERAL DREAM COME TRUE.
