The multi-platinum Grammy-winning act continues to send shockwaves through the global Metal community, having just released their widely anticipated sixth LP, We Are Not Your Kind. Released last August 2019 and highlighted by tracks like “The Birth of the Cruel,” “Solway Firth,” and the lead single “Unsainted,” Slipknot’s latest record has unsurprisingly left much of the music world in awe.
Slipknot emerged towards the end of the 20th Century from the US Midwestern town of Des Moines, Iowa and quickly established themselves as the most enigmatic, provocative, and aggressive collective in contemporary music.
1999’s eponymous debut album is widely regarded as a modern-day classic and was honored by Metal Hammer as the “Best Debut of the Last 25 Years.” The release quickly racked up double RIAA platinum certifications in the US, with many of the band’s subsequent releases achieving platinum status around the globe.
To date, the band has been nominated for 10 Grammy Awards (winning in 2006 for “Before I Forget”), and has also scored 13 Platinum and 44 Gold record certifications around the world, with 30 million unit sales and over 2.5 billion YouTube views to date.
Slipknot’s fanbase is as unwavering as it is ubiquitous — the band’s last studio album, 2014’s .5: The Gray Chapter, debuted Top 5 in the Official Album Charts of 19 countries around the world including the US (#1), UK (#2), Japan (#1), Australia (#1), Russia (#1) & Germany (#2).
