Slipknotin alkuperäinen laulaja Anders Colsefni suunnistaa kiertueelle Australiaan esittämään ”Mate.Feed.Kill.Repeat”-demon kokonaisuudessaan: Omistaa kiertueen Paul Grayn sekä Joey Jordisonin muistolle
Yhdysvaltalaisen metalliyhtye Slipknotin alkuperäisenä laulajana tunnettu Anders Colsefni on suunnistamassa Australiaan kiertueelle esittämään yhtyeen 27 vuotta täyttävää ensimmäistä demoa ”Mate.Feed.Kill.Repeat” kokonaisuudessaan. Colsefni on julkaissut tiedotteeseen liittyen virallisen viestin, jonka mukaan tulevat keikat on omistettu Paul Grayn sekä Joey Jordisonin muistolle ja voit lukea sen tästä:
”As many of you are aware, I am not big on social media or talking in the press but with the growing amount of interest in my forthcoming tour of Australia and New Zealand, I feel it is time to issue a statement.
”My performances as part of this tour are dedicated to my fallen brothers, Joey and Paul. I miss you both dearly. I will be drawing on you both to deliver these songs to our fans with the same level of aggression and volatility that we did together 27 years ago.

”I will endeavor to keep the set as authentic to the emotions and sentiments of which they are written but I will deliver them as I am now, not the kid I once was. Since these songs were written almost three decades ago, I have had many great opportunities in various bands to hone my vocal abilities, and stagecraft and to grow as a person.
”In response to Corey’s well wishes I’d like to say ’Thank you’. It may come as a surprise to many maggots, but it is actually Corey who I have maintained an ongoing friendship since my departure from the band. There has only ever been a kinship between us. I consider Corey a true brother and he has always had my back, and I his.
”Thank you all again for your adoration and support and I look forward to delivering Australasia ’Mate. Feed. Kill. Repeat.’ for the first time ever. Long live the KNOT.”
