Product Description
After over 5 million albums sold in the US, Slipknot returns with their most powerful
statement yet - All Hope Is Gone. Filled with the fury people have come to expect from
Slipknot as well as some extraordinary surprises, this album is the culmination of the
band' s 9 unique members, three platinum albums and their 10 year journey at the top
of the Hard Rock genre. Kicked off by the powerful crescendo that is Execute and
Gematria (The Killing Name) and ending with the blistering track All Hope Is Gone
- the album is a cohesive statement about the world today and truly cements the
band as one of Rock' s heavyweights. The lead single Psychosocial will propel the new
album to match and exceed the success of the last album, Vol 3: Subliminal Verses
which produced numerous Top 20 songs at Rock radio including a Top 5 track at Active and
Modern Rock radio.
Album Description
Hailing from the 'middle of nowhere'- Des Moines, Iowa - SLIPKNOT are a true phenomenon of modern Metal.Fortified with an arsenal of blistering music saturated with screams, drums, searing riffs, sampling, scratches and melody, Slipknot's music runs the scale from eerily thought-provoking to utterly terrifying. Already hailed as a landmark in Metal music, their self-titled debut is now close to Platinum status in the UK (over 280,000 shipped), while their second album 'Iowa' made an even bigger impact. Heavier and even more uncompromising, it debuted in the UK album charts at Number 1 (shipping Gold on release) and capped it with a debut sold-out UK Arena tour which spawned their ground-breaking 'Disasterpieces' DVD release. With their third album - 'Vol 3' - the one the doubters said would never see the light of day - the band demonstrated their seemingly innate ability to connect with existing fans (affectionately dubbed "maggots") while pushing the limits of the genre in all directions. Another UK Top 5 and Gold album 'Vol 3' has gone on to retain the sales level achieved by 'Iowa', a rare feat in this digitally-ravaged music business. While Nu-Metal (a genre Slipknot were unfairly tagged with) has long since gasped it's last breath, Slipknot have proved that they really are in a field of one. Now the Grammy Award winning nontet are back with their fourth album, 'All Hope Is Gone', recorded this spring in Slipknot's home state and co-produced by the band and Dave Fortman (Evanesence), mixed by Colin Richardson (Machine Head).All Hope is Gone is more of a statement than a record. Corey Taylor comments, "Every album we have made is a statement about that space in time. I think this era is the most mature, most beautiful and the most powerful. We have made an album that will show the road behind, the road ahead, and where we are as men. I think it's the best thing I've ever made. And I challenge anyone to prove me wrong."

 This is Slipknot? October 11, 2008
Wow... Guitar Solos.. Singing..and Screaming. Not what I expected from a slipknot album. This stuff is way better musically than the old stuff, sorry hardcore fans, but this is much better music!
slipknot newbie October 9, 2008
I've never listened to Slipknot before but after hearing Psychosocial on the radio I went out and bought the cd. I loved it! It's heavy, lyrics are good, bass is there...I haven't heard their previous stuff yet but I will definitely be exploring their older music now. If you're looking for a good head-banging album, this is it. I think the band is incredibly talented and the songs show their diversity. Lots of heavy bands don't really have true vocal capabilities so it was surprising to find out that Slipknot does. I would recommend this album - can't criticize their other stuff 'cause I haven't heard it yet so if anyone else out there is new to the band like me go for it.
excellent time and service October 7, 2008
Everything I have ever ordered through Amazon.com has been delivered FAST and been exactly right. Just PERFECT! You all deserve a big pat on the back for the service that you and your outlets provide.
Thanks, Karen Cox
a dose of every album, with a new album sound October 7, 2008
First off, I think this album is great. Ive been a fan since they started in '99. there is at least one song on this cd that sounds like each other album. Including, Wherein Lies Continue sounding like the first album, Gematria sounding like Iowa, and a few songs sounding like Vol III. however, there are a few songs that sound very similar to Stone Sour. Now, they are great too, but i thought the concept was to keep the two seperate. And here, they didnt. Even though Gehenna fell into this catagory, it remains a experimental and breakthrough song for Slipknot. They have captured the "Sing-A-Long Bash your head against the nearest wall, rock chorus...." If you do purchase, upgrade to the special edition. The extra 5 or 7 bucks is so worth it. The booklet is bigger, the 3 songs make the money worth it alone, and the dvd is fun to watch for the 35 minutes it lasts. Very similar to "Inside the Nine" DVD. All in all, worth my twenty bucks, and hasnt left my cd player since i got it the first day. I scream my lungs out to every line.
All Hope is Gone is definitely not the case! October 6, 2008
Being a huge Corey Taylor fan, my opinion is semi bias. One thing that I can promise you is, this album (All Hope is Gone) is nothing like their self titled album, Iowa, or Vol 3 The Subliminal Verses. Creating their fourth album with different perspective, different recording style, and brand new lyrics... has turned into a matured Slipknot masterpiece.
These nine guys have different personalities, different recording tactics and styles. Each single member of Slipknot brings different artistic ideas to the table and to this record. One thing for sure, these guys know how to rock and can pull off any type of project that is given to them!
All Hope is Gone is by far their best album yet! Slipknot shows you that they are a band who will never break up and better yet.... give us Maggots security that there is indeed more to Slipknot that we have not yet seen!
All Hope is Gone not only gives us hope for future projects by Slipknot, but All Hope is Gone is a remarkable and refreshing album!
