Good morning, Iowa masked metal favourites Slipknot have announced their return to Australia.
Fittingly, the band comes Down Under for the halloween period, with the group to perform on a three-show east coast run this October.
Having teased an Australian tour - via some vague posters, which recently appeared around town - the confirmed dates were officially announced this morning. The visit marks the band's first performances in Australia since 2015's Soundwave festival.
Slipknot released their current studio album, '.5: The Gray Chapter', in 2014.
