Slipknot Unveils Neon Nightmare Fuel in ‘Nero Forte’ Video, Announces 2020 Tour Dates

On Monday (Dec. 16), Slipknot shared the neon-tinted video for their latest single “Nero Forte,” and also announced the dates for their 2020 European and Asian tours.

The clip is pure, abstract nightmare fuel, with the band performing the intense track while bathed in flashing neon lights and wearing their signature masks. “A home like yours is upside down/ Too much animosity/ Nobody does it better than the enemy/ A hope like yours won’t help me now/ You can do your worst to me/ At the end of the day, that’s what you do best,” vocalist Corey Taylor rages over the more melodic lines of the track’s sinister chorus.
