Editorial Review:
Album Description: Limited edition pressing of the debut album by nine member alternative metal band from Des Moines, Iowa signed to the Roadrunner label. Comes in a digipak with 3 bonus tracks added, 'Get This', 'Interloper' (Demo) and 'Despise' (Demo). 17 tracks total. Digipak. 1999 release.
Amazon.com: 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. 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. 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 Taylor's immense passion and wide melodic range, makes Slipknot immensely listenable. Slipknot isn't for everyone, but they provide a visceral and satisfying ride for fans of the hard stuff. --Katherine Turman

...as far as Slipknot go they have had a rather sucessful career...many adoring fans (maggots? The patriotic references are rather disturbing) and of course their music is played on mainstream metal radio stations across the globe...
...their image has always been one of the quirks that repel certain people thus drawing in others...making random people shout out words such as "THEY'RE SATANIC BECAUSE I ASSUME THEY ARE!!!" And awkward controversies (spellcheck) meant they were seemed as ... Read More

I have ordered this cd with #8 frail limb nursury and #9 Purity 4 times through Amazon and I got the other release instead. Save yourself the time and frustration and look for it somewhere else.

I remember when this album first came out I was in high school and, to me at the time, this was some very hard hitting original stuff. I bought the album twice at the time because I lost one and the tracks on those I purchased were different than the ones listed here. This is because once Slipknot hit radio waves they re-arranged the album. I have no idea where you would still find the original today, it's probably worth a good chunk of change.
Nevertheless this is still a masterpiece. ... Read More

let me start out by saying that slipknot is something that you have to have a taste for, so if you don't like it don't listen to it! anyway this self titled album is a great cd, it features some of their earlier work such as eyeless, and wait and bleed. the band its self consists of 9 members: sid wilson(DJ), corey taylor(lead vocals), jim root(rythem guitarist), mick thompson(lead guitarist), paul gray(bassist), shaun crahan(percussion), chris ferhn(percussion), craig jones(sampler), joey jordison(drums). ...
