We Are Not Your Kind is the sixth studio album by Slipknot, released on August 9, 2019, by Roadrunner Records. Recorded at EastWest Studios in Hollywood, California with co-producer Greg Fidelman (who previously produced the band’s 2014 album .5: The Gray Chapter). The title is taken from a lyric in the song “All Out Life”, which was released as a standalone single in 2018 and features as a bonus track on the Japanese edition of the album. We Are Not Your Kind is the only Slipknot album to be recorded as an eight-member band, as their former percussionist Chris Fehn was fired from the band in March 2019 after suing the group for alleged unpaid royalties.
