To celebrate two decades of existence, Slipknot will release Antennas To Hell, a "best of" collection documenting its career on July 24th. The album is scheduled to be released via Roadrunner Records while the band is spending its summer as the main attraction of the 2012 edition of the Rockstar Energy Drink Mayhem Festival, as well as curating and headlining the inaugural year of their very own festival, Knotfest.



This summer's Mayhem and Knotfest outings celebrate the band and the life of late bassist Paul Gray, and will serve as "the end of the beginning" for Slipknot; this summer's performances will be the fans' last chance to see them as they are now. Of course the band will continue, but just as inevitable with Slipknot is the fact that the band will evolve, and the future is unwritten. Antennas To Hell serves as a companion to that celebration. The two-disc version of Antennas To Hell includes a bonus live CD that captures the band's 2009 performance at the legendary Download Festival in the UK. The live disc showcases the band playing a set of career-spanning classics in front of 80,000 rabid fans. The journey from "(Sic)", track 1 on their self-titled debut, to "Snuff," the haunting No. 1 rock track from 2008's All Hope Is Gone, proves that. The album features fan favorites, live classics and well-known radio hits.

This summer will also see the release of the band's first-ever mobile application, Wear The Mask. Part mask builder, part social connector for fans, and 100% Slipknot in its look and execution, the app brings the Slipknot mindset into previously uncharted territory ? the mobile devices of fans worldwide. Wear The Mask will be released simultaneously with Antennas To Hell.

Jordison stated: "We're banded together in hate. Sometimes we hate each other, sometimes we hate the world. Sometimes we just hate our own lives. But when we get together, something monstrous happens and we pull this amazing sound out of all that energy. Plus, we believe in world domination. And this is the band that's going to get us there."
