Metal band Slipknot teams up with The Sandbox to create a musical metaverse
The Sandbox (SAND) teamed up with the metal band Slipknot to create the Knotverse music project. The purpose of this initiative is to hold a concert by the band as part of the festival called Knotfest. This project is progressive for a company that wants to develop in the field of virtual reality.
Metal band Slipknot joins the metaverse
This is not the first case of cooperation between The Sandbox (SAND) and world-renowned companies. The game platform’s partners already include Britain’s international commercial bank HSBC and cryptocurrency wallet Ledger, but The Sandbox is now teaming up with Slipknot to create a new successful project in the meta world. On Twitter, the company announced the launch of an advertising campaign called “Are you ready to rock?”.
It should also be added that the partnership includes not only the Slipknot group but also one of the most famous heavy metal festivals called Knotfest. That’s why The Sandbox, together with “the most mysterious, provocative and aggressive band of today”, wants to create the Knotverse project, which would be a unique place to unite Slipknot fans in the metaverse. Fans of the band are also waiting for the release of several collections of non-fungible tokens (NFT) with the most important elements of the band’s history.
The Sandbox will present a Slipknot concert in virtual reality
As already mentioned, such cooperation involves not only merging with Slipknot but also with the cult music festival Knotfest. Therefore, we should expect the presentation of the entire festival in virtual reality The Sandbox.
According to one of the founders of the band Shawn “clown” Krehan, the Knotverse project in the metaverse will take over the dark and mysterious theme of the festival and present the stage images and references of the Slipknot band. “Anyone who has ever attended Knotfest or dreamed of it now has the opportunity to enter the digital version of The Sandbox live 24/7,” — said Swan Krehan.
Back in November 2021, the Slipknot team presented their website The Chapeltown Rag, which played the role of a marketplace for the purchase of 9 unreleased NFT music. Therefore, the Knotverse project is not the first initiative of the band in the world of Web 3.0.
According to preliminary data, Slipknot should release a new album by mid-2022. That’s why their collaboration with The Sandbox is one of the innovative projects that attract even more fans of the band in the meta world.
