Joey Jordison is back with SLIPKNOT and will be touring world wide this summer!

Developed in collaboration with super metal drummer Joey Jordison of Slipknot, the Black Alpha "Slipknot Edition" are coated using the original black ColorSound coating and then silk-screened with a rich gold Alpha logo, model designation and Slipknot logo. The "Slipknot Edition" is Joey's personal selection of Alpha models which features the core look and sound of his upcoming 2008/2009 tour.

The Black Alpha models consist of the 20" Metal Ride, 17", 18", and 19" Rock Crash, 14" Sound Edge Hi-Hat, 18" Rock China, and 10" Metal Splash. The ride sound is metallic with a strong ping and icy wash. The Crashes are powerful, sturdy and cutting while the hi-hats are loaded with sizzling energy, suitable for the loudest styles of music today. The deep thunderous China and untamed smashing Splash are ideal effect sounds that compliment the entire set.



The ColorSound technology only Paiste is truly known for adds a bit of bite to the initial attack, centers the overtones, and adds raw presence to the entire sound character to this dark and exotic looking set of cymbals.

Rolling Stone has revealed what appears to be the cover art for SLIPKNOT's new single, "Psychosocial", which will be delivered to radio on June 30 and will be available digitally on July 1. Check it out below.
