Slipknot

Formed in Des Moines, Iowa, in 1995, Slipknot emerged as a groundbreaking force in the heavy metal scene. The band’s distinctive identity is characterized by their masked, jumpsuit-clad appearance and aggressive musical style. The original lineup included nine members, each assigned a number and a corresponding persona. Led by percussionist Shawn Crahan, Slipknot features vocalist Corey Taylor, drummer Jay Weinberg, guitarist Jim Root, and others. Their self-titled debut album in 1999 unleashed a ferocious blend of metal, industrial, and punk influences, earning them widespread attention. The follow-up, “Iowa” (2001), solidified their presence with its intense and visceral sound.
