Iowa

Slipknot
Released 2001Metal
ClassicPicked by a lifelong record collector

A brutal, claustrophobic peak of nu-metal aggression. Heavy and intense. Their darkest record. Released in 2001, it's a key entry in Slipknot's run.

On vinyl: Vinyl can be scarcer than the CD from this era, so it's worth looking for a recent repressing.
