.5: The Gray Chapter is the upcoming fifth studio album by American heavy metal band Slipknot.

A standard and deluxe edition of the album will be released. The deluxe edition will feature two bonus tracks. It was also revealed another special edition featuring a t-shirt of the album cover will be released.
