If you want a reminder of just how clinical Slipknot still are on a festival stage, Resurrection Fest has you covered.
Professionally shot 4K footage of the band’s June 28th, 2025 headline set in Viveiro, Spain, has officially landed via the festival’s YouTube channel and it captures the band at full force.
Clocking in at nearly 80 minutes, the set leans hard into Slipknot’s legacy while still giving newer material room to breathe, from the eerie intro pairing of Knight Rider and Come Play With Us through to a genuinely unsettling closer in ‘Scissors’, this is Slipknot in full beast mode.
The setlist pulls deep, including early cuts like ‘(sic)’ and ‘People = Sh*t’ sitting comfortably alongside bruisers such as ‘Gematria (The Killing Name)’ and ‘The Heretic Anthem’, while newer tracks including ‘Nero Forte’, ‘Yen’, and ‘The Devil In I’ prove they’ve long earned their place in the live canon.
‘Spit It Out’ and ‘Surfacing’ still hit like blunt objects, even decades on.
Catalog Sale Hits $120 Million
The release lands just weeks after Slipknot quietly reshaped their financial future, the band recently completed a deal to sell a significant portion of their music catalogue to HarbourView Equity Partners, reportedly valued at around $120 million.
The agreement covers publishing and recording master royalties from their archival catalogue, though it does not include future releases.
“After 25 years of taking on the music business, we find ourselves with a partner that is willing to sign onto continuing what SLIPKNOT started,” said M. Shawn Crahan (Clown).
“Only they want to go even bigger. Get ready. Hail The Knot.”
HarbourView CEO Sherrese Clarke framed the deal as a long-term cultural investment, stating Slipknot’s catalogue represents “enduring artistry within the genre.”
Almost three decades in
According to Billboard, Slipknot’s recordings have generated approximately $15.5 million annually over the past three years, with publishing adding another $5.2 million per year.
Ownership of the master recordings remains tied to Warner Music Group, following its acquisition of Roadrunner Records.
Nearly three decades in, Slipknot remain both a cultural force and a commercial juggernaut, and this Resurrection Fest footage makes it painfully clear why.
