At the same time, “Goodbye” might just be the album’s most poignant moment. Transmuting ethereal instrumentation within evocative lyrics, it proves utterly chilling as it recounts the day Paul died. “Word for word, it’s about all of us sitting in my house that day,” says Taylor. “It was the first time, Slipknot-the band-had ever been in my house. The irony was it took the death of one of us to get everyone there. We were all balling our eyes out.” Early within the sessions, the members tapped into a raw aggression akin to their breakout self-titled debut and 2001’s landmark Iowa, but filtered through fifteen years of wisdom and refinement. I had this built up energy in me since the day of Paul’s funeral, and I saved it for four years,” adds Clown. “That’s the music for ‘XIX’. I thought it was so appropriate.” Want to find out more about Slipknot's discography? No problem! Here you can find more SlipKnot albums.

Vinyl Vol. 3: The Subliminal Verses - Limited Edition Violet Vinyl

Can't get enough of Slipknot Artworks and value a first-class listening experience? Then you shouldn't miss out on Slipknot vinyl records. The LPs let the famous Slipknot album artwork shine in new splendour and provide a unique retro feeling.Slipknot is a metal band from Des Moines, Iowa, formed by vocalist Anders Colsefni, percussionist Shawn Crahan and bassist Paul Gray (3) in September 1995. At first, they called themselves "The Pale Ones", then debuted as "Meld" on November 5, 1995, and finally settled on "Slipknot", a suggestion by drummer Jordison. They also performed at least two shows in June 1996 under the moniker "Pygsystem". Covering a myriad of feelings, Slipknot deliver one of their most brutal declarations ever with the polyrhythmic viciousness of “AOV” and an echoing and eviscerating “call-to-arms” on “Sarcastrophe”. “Skeptic” offers up a lyrical dedication to Paul, while the finale “If Rain Is What You Want” leaves listeners breathless with its cinematic expanse and starkly uplifting dénouement.

At the turn of the 21st century, Slipknot opted to take the newfound fame and success rewarded by their self-titled debut, and run it into the ground in, what has to be, one of the most intriguing examples of chaos and inner band turmoil lending to an integral work.Just wondering why the 'Barcode and other identifiers' lists CD variation when the heading of this entry state 2 x vinyl. This cannot be correct and therefore needs correcting. Teasing the storm to come, Slipknot first unveiled “The Negative One” on August 1, 2014. After an ominous swell, a buzzsaw guitar seesaws between gnashing and guttural, snapping into a propulsive beat punctuated by eerie and entrancing squeals. Corey spits pure vitriol before blasting into an equally anthemic and atomic refrain. He goes on, “It’s that inner fist fight. You’re going to war with yourself and finding out which side is going to win.” Slipknot reissue their classic 2004 album Volume 3: The Subliminal Verses on violet coloured vinyl. Early 2014 saw Slipknot secretly retreat to Los Angeles to record the follow-up to 2008’s platinum-selling All Hope Is Gone, which debuted at #1 on the Billboard Top 200.
