Introduction of slipknot belt

1999, the Slipknot band released their first official album Slipknot on Roadrunner Records after a period of accumulation. Through the non-stop tour, the Slipknot Band gradually has its own fixed fan base, and their performances at Ozzyfest Music Festival have greatly improved their popularity. Their violent performances quickly conquered many heavy metal fans through TV broadcast. In this performance, many band members were injured due to excessive venting during the performance, and Crahan, the soul of the band, even needed stitches in his head. However, their blood won them a wider reputation. Their singles "Waiting for Blood" and "Spit Out" immediately became very popular singles, and their album sales have been very smooth. In 2000, they almost entered the top 50 of the Billboard 200 list, and their sales in the United States exceeded 654.38+0 million, ranking first in the history of Roadrunner records.

200 1, Slipknot has become one of the most concerned heavy metal bands in the United States, and their second album "Iowa" is highly anticipated. Although it was released at the end of August, it still ranks third in the Billboard 200 list, with sales of more than 880,000 copies in the United States. However, just after the release of this album, after the tour and Ozzyfest, Slipknot set up his own maggot recording company and signed a band called Downthesun, in which the lead singer was the drummer of Crahan, the core of Slipknot, but the other members of the band began to do their own things.

Slipknot's DJ Sid Wilson also changed his name to DJ Starscream and started his personal development. The band's two guitarists, James Root and Mick Thompson, also started their personal music development. Joey Jordison, the drummer of the band, joined another band Murderdolls, where he even often performed as a guitarist. Corey taylor, the lead singer of the band, joined Stone Sour, and in 2002, he contributed a single "Both" to the soundtrack of the blockbuster "Spider-Man". However, the division of the slipknot zone has not ended, but has intensified. In the summer of 2002, Joey Jordison, drummer of Slipknot Band, and Tripp Eisen, guitarist of Static-X Band, formed Murderdolls Band. Corey taylor, the lead singer of the band, reorganized his Stone Sour band. Other members include two other guitarists, Jim Gunn and DJ Sid Wilson. The Stone Sour band released its first album "Stone Sour" in 2002. It seems that the reunion of the band is still far away. In the winter of 2002, Corey Taylor, the lead singer of Slipknot, made a statement on the band's homepage, claiming that his teammates had not spoken for several months, and the band would rather disband than become the second Gwar band. This statement quickly caused an oral dispute between members of Gwarband Oder Ouurungus and Corey Taylor. However, this announcement soon reunited the members of the slipknot band. At the beginning of 2003, corey taylor's statement disappeared from the homepage. Instead, the band members have reunited and started recording their new album.

In the summer of 2003, Slipknot began to record its first new album from 2000 to 2003 with another big-name producer, Rick Rubin, and began to tour again in early 2004. It has been made clear that it will participate in Ozzfest Music Festival again in the summer and will use their redesigned third-generation mask. On May 25, 2004, the anger and noise of the Slipknot band returned to the fans with their third official album, Volume III: Subconscious Poems. Vol 3, 2004: After the publication of subconscious poems, every member of the band took a long vacation, some were busy with their own lives, and some helped to make some sidebands or personal works. So the recording of the album didn't start until the end of last year, and it didn't end until 1 Originally, it was supposed to be released in February, but the band was still not satisfied with the mix, so they went back to the studio to rework it, which took so long.

The new album "All Hope Disappeared" will not focus on Thrash metal like the last one, but will present many guitar solos in it. The band members feel that the space for doing this is getting narrower and narrower, so they want to add some acoustic guitar elements and beautiful vocals to the song.

This song "All Hopes Are Gone" became the sales champion in the record market. According to Nielsen SoundScan's statistics, the sales volume of All Hopes Gone reached nearly 240,000 copies in the first week (the exact figure is 2395 16). For the Slipknot, this is the first time that they have won the Billboard 200 album charts. In 2004, Slippery's last album, Vol. 3: Subconscious Poems, won the second place on the Billboard 200 album list, while as early as 200 1, Slippery's other album, Iowa, also won the Billboard 200 album list.

It can be said that most of the fans who like the slipknot band are their die-hard. What everyone likes is their fierceness and ferocity, and of course, the hysterical noise during the performance. At the beginning of her debut, the mask on her face added mystery to this huge group. Later, when slipknot became more and more famous and even became a popular nomination for Grammy Awards every year, the masks on their faces looked more like decorations. In recent years, there have been more and more fans of Slipknot, and their music has been accepted by more and more people. That's understandable. Of course, in the face of more people, Slipknot will definitely lose some die-hard loyalty in his early years.

Judging from this new work, which has been brewing for four years, the music of Slipknot has become more and more neat, the melody is in one go, the solo is good, and the singing is becoming more and more "clear", which has the potential to enter the radio station and become a popular theme. For the early hardcore of the slipknot band, this song "All Hope is Gone" may not be what you expected. If you still have expectations, then unfortunately, just like the title of this album, your "hope has failed." Suddenly I thought of Stone Sour, a branch band of Slipknot, and now Slipknot seems to be developing in that direction. This band is from Iowa and has an impressive platinum sales. This metal-style rock band consists of nine monsters. This popular band in Europe and America has more injuries than a hockey team. Of course, the audience will not be spared when watching the performance of this group of music thugs. In Oklahoma City, a riot broke out when 60 spectators with tickets were ordered to leave the scene. A British female fan was hit on the head by a musician who jumped off a 30-foot stage.

The slipknot band has been established for five years, and this is their heyday. The nine members of the band all wear different masks (mainly made of rubber and metal) and name themselves with numbers from 0 to 8. No.0 DJ Wilson, 1 drummer Joey Jordan (Joey Jordison), No.2 bassist paul gray (Paul Gray), No.3 drummer Chris Fehn (Chris Fan En), No.4 guitarist Jim Lute (Jim Lute), No.5 sampler controller Craig Jones (Greg Jones), No.6 drummer Shawn Crahan (Shawn Crahan) and No.7 guitarist Mick Thomson (Mick Thomson). It is said that replacing names with numbers is to reduce the influence of personality on the whole, thus highlighting the image of the team, while wearing clowns or monster masks is to scare the audience.

The drummer (captain) Shawn Crahan is 30 years old and used to be a welder. 1993, he contacted the local bassist Paul Gary, and Gary called his alumnus and drummer Joey Jordison, who used to oil and dress the body in the funeral home. Graham picked up an abandoned carpet from a pet shop and hung it in his basement, thus forming a training ground with good acoustics. Everyone rehearses here for four hours every day, no matter how much animal droppings that "tapestry" leaves. When they walked out of the rehearsal place, they smelled shame for six hours. Their first album was born in this small basement. New members came and went. 1995, the band added three guitarists, Jim Root, Mick Thomson and Craig Jones (the latter later became a full-time sampler). He declared that he would not be interviewed by the media or anyone), and the addition of DJ Sid Wilson and the third drummer Chris Fehn further expanded the sound effect of the band. Chris Fehn is a football player on the university team and likes the Iron Lady. His mother is an organist in the church. Finn's father, who has watched three performances by Slipknot, said, "I think this band has brought good things to children. I am 55 years old. I saw that the audience's reaction at the concert was unique and the performance was very attractive. " Finn is the only musician who wears a long nose mask. Take off the mask. He is the healthiest and most handsome one. The last person to join the slipknot band was singer corey taylor. He wrote most of the lyrics of Slipknot. "My mother is often unemployed, and I never know who my father is. I have been homeless for two weeks, "Taylor said. Taylor,/kloc-dropped out of school at the age of 0/8, once worked in a porn shop and worked as a part-time singer in a small band. Taylor said it was great to work in a porn shop, where many of his works were created. The slipknot band had almost no trouble from formal formation to fame. In the late 1990s, they recorded their first album in the basement of Klahan, which attracted the attention of the music industry. Then an important performance opportunity came, and they appeared in the Ozzfest tour hosted by Ozzy Oourne. At first, they inevitably encountered some small resistance. After the performance, drummer Joey Jordison met a priest. The priest was obviously angry with the performance of the slipknot band and scolded Jordan. There are also fans who are unfamiliar and want to coax them off the stage. But when people found that this metal band actually had a group of drummers, two guitarists, a DJ and a sampler, they immediately felt very novel. They sacrificed their faces, wore prison clothes and burned their skin during the performance, causing red spots and blisters on their skin. No one dares to laugh at the craziest person on earth. They are not acrobats and magicians. It's true that they play with shit, drink urine, cut themselves, break their ribs and hurt their calves. People are surprised, which is what they want to see. Jordison said, "It's not that we deliberately want to achieve a certain goal, but that music has brought us to that situation."

Jordison didn't really tell the essence of the problem. It was the audience who encouraged them to do so. After the above improvisation, the Slipknot Band sold 1 5000 albums in1week. The slipknot band is just an unpopular obituary in music style, and there are only a few more members at most. There are countless bands with more skills than them, but the audience prefers one because the slipknot band will throw shit at the audience and add a curse: you are all shit. According to foreign media reports, in order to prepare for the upcoming 20 1 1 tour, American Metal Band Slipknot decided to recall Donnie Steele, a guitarist who played in Slipknot in his early years, to replace paul gray, a bassist who died unexpectedly.

"In the early days of our band, Donnie Steele once played in the band. We think it's more appropriate to bring Donnie back than to find someone else. It is also a respect for Paul to let people from our big family take over paul gray's position. " Slipknot said in a statement: "Donnie and Paul are very close friends, and we feel better to have him take over from their good friend Paul. All eight of us are looking forward to standing on the stage again and remembering paul gray together. This summer, our big family will go to Europe and Brazil to perform. "

On May 24th, 20 10 local time, paul gray died of a drug overdose in his room at the Town Plaza Hotel in Des Moines, Iowa, at the age of 38. After Paul's death, the remaining eight members of the Slipknot Band appeared in public for the first time without masks to collectively commemorate paul gray.

This summer, the slipknot band will give ten performances. On June 17, this series of performances by the Slipknot Band will start from the Sonishere Music Festival in Greece. Corey Taylor, the band's lead singer, said in an interview in 1 month that some members of the slipknot band are already seriously considering creating their new album. "Our band lost an important link and our extended family lost an important member. We can only do our best step by step, and I can only hope that the rest of the band will do the same.
