Slipknot’s original vocalist to perform band’s demo tape in full on tour
Slipknot‘s original vocalist Anders Colsefni is set to perform the band’s demo tape ‘Mate. Feed. Kill. Repeat.’ in full on tour.
Slipknot released the demo tape in 1996 when Colsefni fronted the masked metallers. Corey Taylor took over in 1997.
Later this year, the band’s ex-front person will perform ‘Mate. Feed. Kill. Repeat.’ in full on a 12-date run of dates in Australia and New Zealand as part of a ‘Numetal Mayhem’ tour alongside ex-Mushroomhead singer Waylon Reavis.
Giving his blessing for the performances, Taylor tweeted: “Really wish I could be there to see these shows, but I know Anders Colsefni is going to crush them.”
See the tour dates below.
