SlipKnot


SlipKnot is an American metal band from Des Moines, Iowa. The current members are Sid Wilson, Joey Jordison, Paul Gray, Chris Fehn, Jim Root, Craig Jones, Shawn Crahan, Mick Thomas, and Corey Taylor. They are recognized as one of the pioneering bands in the New Wave of American Heavy Metal.
The band formed in late 1995 and underwent several line-up changes following the independent release of their debut album Mate.Feed.Kill.Repeat. in 1996. Their first studio-produced album, Slipknot, was released in 1999. Followed by two further studio albums, Iowa in 2001 and Vol 3: (The Subliminal Verses) in 2004. They are expected to release their fourth album, All Hope Is Gone on August 26, 2008.


Slipknot is a good band, I've listened to them for almost as long as i have Maximum The Hormone. My favorite album is Vol 3: (The Subliminal Verses). My favorite song is Before I Forget. They got nominated for 6 Grammy Awards and only won one of them. They should have gotten more.

Why are they called SlipKnot? Did the knot slip or someting? LOL. Also, why do they have to look like they are going to kill you? I agree with Mr. T. What do they actually look like?
