No Description AvailableNo Track Information AvailableMedia Type: CDArtist: SLIPKNOTTitle: SLIPKNOTStreet Release Date: 06/29/1999DomesticGenre: HEAVY METAL 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. Inside, foul language and subversive lyrics complete the picture. Yet Slipknot are no Insane Clown Posse, using hyperbole to mask a lack of talent. Slipknots sound, while indebted to the likes of Korn, is more aggressive and creative. Indeed, its a closer kin to Slayer and death metal, yet listenable and surprisingly melodic. 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. His stellar production, melded with wonderfully creepy percussive elements, a sampler, a DJ, metallic-grind guitars, and singer Corey Taylors immense passion and wide melodic range, makes Slipknot immensely listenable. Slipknot isnt for everyone, but they provide a visceral and satisfying ride for fans of the hard stuff. --Katherine Turman
