	CLUAS \| Album Reviews \| Slipknot 'Iowa'
		Slipknot fell into one of the traps most feared by serious "artistes", they became instantly popular and phenomenally successful.
		It will be very hard to find a "Wait and Bleed" type single on this album, "I Am Hated" being the most likely candidate, thanks to its similarity to one of their most successful singles, "Spit It Out".
		It's difficult to pick highlights from this album as each of the 14 tracks is quite astounding.

	Slipknot (album) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Slipknot is the official debut album (Mate.Feed.Kill.Repeat is their first, but was released independently) by Slipknot, considered by most critics a nu metal album.
		The album was released on June 29, 1999 by Roadrunner Records.
		A digipak version was released on March 7, 2000, followed by a "Clean" version that was strangely uncensored with a note in the booklet insert that claimed that censorship was "the absolute fascism of America" on March 14; the digipak was re-released on August 9.

	[No title]
		Slipknot actually take away from their groove by being so determined to keep the album heavy.
		Slipknot is an artificially condensed sugar-rush of aggression: so fucking dead-on in its sweetness that its nutritional value becomes irrelevant.
		The Slipknot party line, if I understand this correctly, is that the costumes are not a gimmick, but some sort of political statement against gimmickry in the music business.

	Slipknot Biography
		On their first major label album, each band member was referred to by first name and number only; the band are far from secretive about their identities, however, and their full names were present on their second major label album.
		On the contrary, supporters of Slipknot note that the majority of their music does not have a rap-based lyrical structure (although the influence of rap is evident in some of their earlier music).
		Slipknot is also accused of creating positions within the band for the sole purpose of increasing the total number of members; for example, no other popular bands hold a position for a sampler, even if samples are included in the music.

		But even more helpful was their theatrical, attention-grabbing (some critics said ridiculous) image: the band always performed in identical industrial jump suits and homemade Halloween masks, and added to its mysterious anonymity by adopting the numbers zero through eight as stage aliases.
		The music scene in Des Moines wasn't much to speak of, and the band's big-time ambition was usually met with disbelief and ridicule, which provided the initial spark for its mostly anonymous stage visuals.
		Finally, in the spring of 2000, Slipknot was certified platinum; the first such album in Roadrunner's history.

	SLIPKNOT
		Slipknot originated in Iowa which is sort of out in the middle of nowhere.
		This was very different to the first album, and was considered to be the debut album by many people.
		This album is much more like the old slipknot, in a kind of fl metal way, rather than the nu-metal sound of the last album.

	Slipknot (album)
		Slipknot is the second album by heavy metal band Slipknot.
		The album was released on June 29, [1999]] by Roadrunner Records.

	Into Liquid Sky - Music Reviews
		Whereas they have a strong fanbase, they also find a lot of metal purists (and even elitists) who dislike them for a number of reasons, one of which is that they managed to become popular despite their freak-show gimmick.
		For those who don't know, Slipknot is a nine-piece from Iowa that dresses up in disturbing masks and outfits and throws down some brutally heavy metal layered in chaos, percussion, samples and an overabundance of antiestablishment rhetoric.
		After listening to the album a few times, I would have to say it's one of their better efforts.

	Slipknot - 9:0 Live - Album Review
		Due to unseen circumstances SlipKnot will not be perfoming tonight" are met with a tidal wave of angry fans yelling and booing the poor sound tech that had to say it, only to be replaced seconds later with the roar of appreciation as SlipKnot take to the stage.
		This double disc live album has been taken from their World tour in support of their 3rd album Vol 3: (the subliminal verses), 24 tracks of pure unadulterated ear bleedingly loud (if like me it HAS to be loud!) Metal.
		The sheer dedication these fans show on the album make you realise this is something that it will take an age before you forget.

		The anticipation for Slipknot's follow-up was intense, and many industry observers predicted that it would debut at number one; however, faced with some stiff competition that week, the band's sophomore effort, Iowa, bowed at number three upon its release in 2001.
		By the winter, Slipknot had still not reunited and Taylor wrote a commentary on the band's website stating that they had not spoken in months, and that they'd rather break up than become "the next Gwar".
		Slipknot then embarked on a brief tour as a warm-up for their dates headlining Ozzfest that summer.

	(sic)Army - 3.0
		SLIPKNOT guitarist Jim Root has reportedly been forced to sit out the early part of the band's current "Subliminal Verses Tour: The Final Volume" after breaking his wrist a couple of days prior to the tour's kick-off on Friday, October 14 in Cincinnati, Ohio.
		SLIPKNOT have set "9.0: Live" as the title of their upcoming live album, due on November via Roadrunner Records.
		ABC ePrep reports: As SLIPKNOT prepare to launch a South American tour, which will be followed by the final North American leg of their Subliminal Verses tour, percussionist Shawn "Clown" Crahan phoned ABC ePrep from Iowa to bring everyone up to date on the band.

	Slipknot - Free Music Downloads - MP3 Downloads - Download.com Music
		In a world where the mentality seems to be "work less, yet earn more," Slipknot have done everything they can to work harder and earn what they deserve, much to the chagrin of their so-called peers, yet to the delight of their fans, known affectionately as the Maggots.
		The latest culmination of their efforts is, Slipknot 9.0: Live, a bludgeoning double-live CD of the past three album's worth of material that captures all of the noise, hatred, intensity, violence, pain, blood and infection that make the maggots swarm.
		The album contains blips from the nearly two years of brutal touring the band waded through, rejoicing, suffering, destroying, but most importantly reconnecting as a unit, a family, an unstoppable force that will never be reckoned with, never be duplicated, but always envied.

	SlipknotNine - Press - Slipknot Cap A Year Of Destruction With 9.0 Live; More Stone Sour On Tap
		"Studio albums are cool because they span the tables of time and you can work on the music until you're ready to put it out — but when you play those songs live, they take on a whole different life," percussionist Shawn "Clown" Crahan said.
		To make sure the songs on 9.0: Live were as tight as possible, Slipknot recorded dozens of shows over the past year from their tours for The Subliminal Verses.
		The visceral quality of the recordings Slipknot sifted through brought back many painful memories: bassist Paul Grey collapsing from exhaustion, percussionist Chris Fehn jumping the wrong way and tearing a ligament in his knee, and Crahan grappling with DJ Sid Wilson 10 feet off the ground and taking a dive headfirst into the concrete.

	Vol. 3: The Subliminal Verses - Slipknot - Song Listings
		Slipknot set out to construct the ultimate metal music flamethrower, ever since their genesis in a Des Moines, IA, basement.
		Rubin is integral to the album's power -- his cataclysmic vocal filters and arrays of unidentifiable squiggle and squelch unite Vol.
		This is personaly my favorite album of all time, and is so far the best slipknot album to date.

		This new sense of dynamics and experimentation proves that Slipknot is about to rise above the narrow confines of their category, but large parts of this album are still stuck in the worst tendencies of nu-metal.
		While I understand that this album will most likely make some fans angry or disappointed, I have to admit that I really love this new album--and this is coming from someone who loved "Iowa" a lot more than their self-titled album.
		The best approach to this album is to listen to it with an open mind, allow the album to play all the way through once, let it all soak in for an hour or so, and then listen to it again.

		The album cover of this self-titled release depicts the nine members of Slipknot in creepy masks, the dark image confirmed by the presence of a parental advisory sticker.
		Slipknot's sound, while indebted to the likes of Korn, is more aggressive and creative; indeed, it's a closer kin to Slayer and death metal, yet listenable and surprisingly melodic.
		However Slipknot are infamous for their dodgy masks and boiler suits, and the fact they've pretty much grabbed the younger generation by the throats.

	SLIPKNOT - METAL HEAD REVOLUTION
		Slipknot is a nine-piece American musical group from Des Moines, Iowa, formed in 1995 and currently signed to Roadrunner Records.
		Slipknot's first songs were composed in 1990, during what is referred to by the band members as the "Basement Sessions", while in this "Basement Session", Slipknot went under the name as Meld before they became Slipknot.
		Those who consider Slipknot to be nu metal argue that the lyrical themes and instrumental styles of Slipknot, most notably the rarity of guitar solos, the use of three drummers, turntables, sampling, and rap-reminiscent vocals place the group squarely in the nu metal camp.

	Metalhammer - Slipknot
		The same is true of 'Prosthetics', with a vicious, viscous odour of maladjustment, mixing a wall of wails with off-kilter percussive bombs, in an opera of distressed noise and mania.
		It's at these points that Slipknot make a strong case for being more than the sum of their influences.
		And you do get the feeling that 'Slipknot' is just the first frayed step on a journey into a hellish maze of torture and depravity.

	IGN: Slipknot Recording New Album
		August 29, 2003 - Slipknot, the modern day masters of mutated metal, are currently working on the follow up to their 2001 critically acclaimed platinum album, Iowa.

		Slipknot took a break from recording their upcoming release to stalk the red carpet at the Freddy vs. Jason movie premiere recently in Los Angeles, CA.

		Slipknots new album is out 25th of May in US and god knows when in UK.
		Bands evolve and slipknot haven't spent as much time on this album as the others but, all of you people i feel purposely come on here previously not appreciating slipknot and then joining the band wagon and mocking them.
		SLipknot guitar is far basic to any other metal band, and is the guitar sounding on nu-metal, short riffs that repeats itself throughout the song, who cres if it sounds heavy, cos slipknot ruin it by the constand racket they make signing through the song

		The new Slipknot CD -- Vol 3: The Subliminal Verses -- came out a few weeks ago.
		Generally 16 on my car stereo is enough to penetrate my core and feel the adrenaline -- but this album is kept at 12 -- and even that feels too high.
		I first heard of Slipknot four years ago from an old friend of mine, Kenny James.

	Fleetmack.com - Slipknot Vol. 3 (The Subliminal Verses) Review
		This album is just amazing, it shows the maturity the band has gained, the musical talent they have retained, and the song writing capability that only improves with each album, and furthermore, with each song.
		I bought the album last Tuesday (the 25th of May), it is now June 2 - 8 days later, and it's been playing constantly on my winamp player both at home and at work, only to have the volume turned off when I leave that particular computer.
		This is such a positive album, it shows all of the emotions you can feel and the negative ones don't win in the end.

	New Slipknot Album In 2008? \| News @ Ultimate-Guitar.Com
		The maggots may have to wait till 2008 for a new Slipknot album if the latest update from the band is anything to go by, reports Gigwise.
		I'm not much of a fan of slipknot, in fact severely dislike them however i can stand the subliminal verses more than the earlier albums, so hopefully ther'll be some songs on this new one that don't sound like a dying cat tuned to drop B. Sigh...
		SlipKnoT, i think, should follow the large amount of success they had w/ Volume 3 and say "Wat did we do to top the billboards and get a grammy?" and utilize it.

	CanEHdian.com: Slipknot
		Slipknot's much awaited second album, Iowa, has come to haunt me. When asked to review this CD I had some doubts as I had never heard any of their music and only knew about them from a couple of Rolling Stone interviews.
		This album is much like their live shows, from a band that has been called, "the best live band in ten years".
		It is also described as "a murderous, rampaging free-for-all that threatens to engulf the entire venue, Slipknot is a sonic assault on all five senses that makes you wish you had a sixth".

	KindaMuzik - Albumrecensie: Slipknot - Iowa
		My first impression of the album was that the band had definitely not become a sell-out, but had become complexer, heavier and darker.
		The album ends with 'Iowa', a song that is said it was recorded while vocalist Corey Taylor was standing on broken glass; naked.
		Slipknot has proven that they're here for the long term, something millions of people already found out after their eponymous debut.

		The album cover of this self-titled release depicts the members of Slipknot in creepy masks, the dark image confirmed by the presence of a parental advisory sticker.
		Slipknot's sound, while indebted to the likes of Korn, is more aggressive and creative.
		The common denominator among Slipknot and the late '90s crop of neo-metal-rap bands is producer Ross Robinson (Korn, Limp Bizkit), who discovered the Iowa-bred Slipknot and signed them to his label, I Am Records.

	BBC - Rock/Indie Review - Slipknot, Volume 3: (The Subliminal Verses)
		How slipknot managed to combine thrashing rock tracks like "duality" and "opium of the people" and then play emotionally touching records like "circle" is beyond me. Corey Taylors roaring vocals and Mick and James' ecstatic riff patterns turn the album into a symphony of mosh-mastery.
		Slipknot needs to rediscover their roots and get away from the lighter weilding audience (yes, I just saw them 2 days ago and most of the audience were sporting their lighters during certain tracks, reminding me of the 80's, like Scorpions and Poison and such).
		Whoever said the Slipknot are just mindless roaring can stick their mindless roaring up their asses and listen to this albums lying upside down on the operating table.
