Released on June 29, 1999, ‘Slipknot’ was a smash hit with critics and an instant classic with fans. The album spans several genres, but is famed for its extensive percussion and overall heavy sound. It peaked at number 51 on the Billboard 200 and has gone on to become certified double platinum in the United States, making it the band’s best-selling album.
Speaking about the seminal LP in a press release, guitarist Jim Root said: “We loved what we did with the first record but we didn’t even know if there was gonna be anything after that. We just wanted people to hear it. Selling out of records and shows, having successful tours– those are goals for any band. But the dream scenario in some ways, came true for us.”
In other news, Slipknot have confirmed the identity of their new drummer after he made his debut with the masked metal band last week.
