. (Gibson) With Slipknot's future in doubt, ever since bass player Paul Gray's tragic death last year, there's good news for fans.

Last week, frontman Corey Taylor hinted at an upcoming U.S. tour for the band. Now, another member has all but confirmed the news. According to Britain's Daily Express newspaper, Slipknot's drummer Shawn Crahan wrote on his Facebook page: "I wanted to tell everyone straight from my mouth because you may have heard it already anyway, but SLIPKNOT will be touring by next June (12) in America only, but that does not mean things will not change, and as they do, I will, along with others, tell you, our family, first."

As for a new album? "It is too soon and there are no songs yet because the band needs to come together to write this next one... Everything happens for a reason, so be ready." more on this story
