Corey Taylor has commented on the current state of Slipknot following the departure of Joey Jordison, and discussed the band's future, calling on fans to be patient.
After Jordison's recent statement that he did not quit the band, Taylor has sent out a defiant new years tweet insisting that that the band aren't falling apart. Instead he called on fans to look forward to the future and hinted at grand plans for the band this year.
For those who think The Knot are falling apart, you are greatly and sadly mistaken. Bring On 2014. Great Things Are Coming. Stay Tuned...

Despite this speculation is still rife as a result of Jordison's statement that there is trouble within the band, as the drummer recently wrote a passionate statement regarding his departure from the band.
Jordison wrote: "To my fans, friends, and associates... I would like to start the New Year by addressing the recent rumors and speculation regarding my departure from Slipknot. I want to make it very clear that I DID NOT QUIT SLIPKNOT. This band has been my life for the last 18 years, and I would never abandon it, or my fans.
This news has shocked and blindsided me as much as it has all of you. While there is much I would like to say, I must remain silent to further details at this time. I would like to thank you all for your unwavering love and support, and wish everyone a very happy and healthy New Year."
