Review Summary: Slipknot's self tittled album.

What was good about this album:
Corey's vocals are great on this cd,and I'm also not into Nu-metal but somehow these guys pull it off.Although this cd isn't as good as mte feed kill repeat it has its fare share of excellent tracks,noteably (sic),eyeless,and spit it out.The drumming on this album is great.This is also a good cd to listen to to releave your stress.The DJ(I think his name is sid?) also does a superb job on slipknot's self tittled album.

What was bad about the album:
The guitar,its just like every other Nu-metal band out there.Some of the lyrics on this album are rather ignorant,noteably sufacing,which during the chorus pretty much says f**k everything.Corey's raps are horrible,since on the rest of the cd he's screaming his voice is very horse,and when he his vocals are just shot.The drumming is great on this cd,but a lot of the time they bury it underneath the guitar,which is nothing special.

Overall this cd was good.Corey just needs to rest his voice before he raps otherwise it sounds horrible.So overall I give this cd a 3/5.

Too short of a review, not enough detail. There are spelling mistakes, all of this seems very rushed. I'd suggest going into details about why you liked or didn't like a certain track.

Too short, and lots of errors. This CD is by far Slipknot's best.

Not enough detail. But keep trying, it all comes in time. But for the record this is my favorite SlipKnot album for sure....... Wait And Bleed, such a great song.

I am very much over this album... listened to it hundreds of times.

For what it's worth it's very slickly produced and one of the best nu-metal albums there is. I'm just bored with the genre.

I can see what you mean; he has an ordinary voice and sounds real smart-ass. but the rhymes and pace make up for it.

i have listened to this record now and then since 2002, and still find it entertaining.This Message Edited On 05.25.07

This was THE album to get me into metal. I can't help but give it a 4.5, no matter how immature it may be.

I had this album in my cd player for months when i first got it. It is one of the first albums that got me into metal, but the album that actually got me into metal was Reign in Blood. I havn't listened to this album in it's entirety in probably 2 or 3 years.
