Vol.3 - The Subliminal Verses

by: Slipknot

May 24, 2004
you're too old - no excuses. This album makes Metallica sound average, dated and out of ideas. The Blister Exists is the best metal tune I've heard in at least a decade - buy it for that if nothing else. This CD is the sonic equivalent of an 18 wheeler crashing through your frontroom while you're eating your tea.

Iowa

by: Slipknot

August 28, 2003
After buying their new album a couple of years ago, i decided to check out their first 2 albums. Their debut album quite frankly is boring it has 2 good songs on it the rest sounded this same. This album however is deffinetly better. The songs here differ from each other, and everything has improved. Best songs are My Plague, The Heretic Anthem & Iowa. This album is very heavy, but brutal? who knows. But the thing that pisses me off is people keep comparing Slipknot to Slayer that's just not right, Slayer are one of the greatest metal bands to hit the planet yeah slipknot are good their no slayer. So overall, indeed a great album much better then their debut. A great starting point for new slipknot fans.

Slipknot

Best album of the past ten years - I'm serious.

'Slipknot' crystalises all that is good about hardcore metal. I've loved this kind of stuff from the mid 80s, all the way from Celtic Frost through Naplam Death in the Lee Dorian days to 90s death metal. Great stuff that's always scratched an itch for me.

But nothing brings it all together like this album. It just gets everything so... RIGHT. The combination of emotion - raw aggresion, rage and a bit of humour - with melodies, awesome percussion, theatricality is spot on and quickly gets under your skin. Nothing quite else really comes close to making it all work so well. Vocals, riffs, samples - everything is just in the right place.

This is a truely stunning set ... Read More:

9.0: Live

by: Slipknot

October 31, 2005
Massive Slipknot fan speaking here, I traveled far and long to see them perform live many years ago several times, and while you get caught up in the atmosphere when you're there and on DVD can appreciate the visual element, without those factors Slipknot's shortcomings are disappointingly apparent.

9.0 has the worst production of anything I've ever heard, and that includes things that were produced badly on purpose. While the band shines on their studio outings, it must be kept in mind that these albums are often many years apart. In the live situation, that majesty just can't be recaptured night after night. If anything, its in the live situation that Slipknot's shortcomings are showcased. Their strengths are in committing to making a record ... Read More:

Vol.3 - The Subliminal Verses

by: Slipknot

May 24, 2004
I cant believe Slipknot the 18 legged hate machine has sold out on us Maggots and gon mainstream!
If you liked Corey Taylors solo song: Bother from the spiderman soundtrack (also featured on stone sower's CD)aswell as Slipknots singles then you will probably like this album. But if you are a fan of the last two albums and think soft slow acoustic rock is for woos's I sugest you get this CD as cheap as posible, because you probably wont keep it long! Personally I burned the heavier tracks (about half the album) onto a CDR, I will think twice about buying a Slipknot album in the future!

Duality

Taken from their new fantastic album, Slipknot release this amazing song as a single. Corey Taylor sounds brilliant, and Joey, as allways, has brilliant drumming skills which are shown off in this song. This is one of the best songs from Vol.3 The Subliminal Versus. So if you are a fan of the great band which is Slipknot buy this single, or better still buy Vol.3 because it rocks!!!
