In a recent engaging interview with Knotfest, Slipknot’s Shawn “Clown” Crahan shared his personal resolution for the year 2025, shedding light on his plans for self-improvement and growth.

As Slipknot gears up for a thrilling 2025, fans can look forward to the continuation of their nostalgic 25th anniversary tour, the eagerly awaited release of the long-hidden album Look Outside Your Window, and the brainstorming of fresh ideas for a new record that promises to captivate audiences.

Beyond the band’s ambitious projects, Clown revealed a significant personal goal that he intends to focus on over the next year.

“In 2025, I’m going to commit to ‘No Complaining’,” he stated candidly. “I’ve come to realize that my expectations often remain unmet, so I need to allow myself some grace. This is probably the final aspect of my ego I need to address, enabling me to simply go with the flow. By doing this, I can concentrate on my positive potential without the distractions of negativity.”

The musician also mentioned that Slipknot has plans to begin working on a new album, set to commence later this year. This new project will serve as the follow-up to their 2022 release, The End, So Far, and marks a new chapter for the band after their contract with Roadrunner concluded and following the departure of longtime members Craig Jones and drummer Jay Weinberg.
