| Slipknot Ranked
I remember really hating this band back in day for no good reason going back has been fun if not underwhelming at many times. | | 1 |  | Slipknot
Vol. 3: The Subliminal Verses
I love a 3rd album that takes all the proven lessons learned of a second album and refines it into an even better record. Song ideas, production, and performance are all great and even the weaker tracks succeed in spite of their poor foundations. Pretty hard to see band top this, especially with the band lineups rocky status and even thoughts towards this album in the years following it's release. | | 2 |  | Slipknot
We Are Not Your Kind
Biggest surprise of their career after a back half of discog that leaves a lot to be desired. Relatively to the point songwriting leads to a great album that doesn't stumble with it's experimentation, unlike the albums preceding and following it. | | 3 |  | Slipknot
Iowa
The rage-out aspect of this bands lyrics are so stupid but this album is so hopelessly bought in that it doesn't matter. The albums oozes energy and has many great tracks, showing the band knew how to tone down the questionable choices from debut. | | 4 |  | Slipknot
Slipknot
Forgot to address it earlier but yes we know Mate. Feed. Kill. Repeat exists but it might as well not, which means this might as well be debut. Of course the slight experience under some of the members belts probably helped make a good debut but band still had some stumbling blocks fully meshing the sound of 9 members. | | 5 |  | Slipknot
.5: The Gray Chapter
A slight course correction from All Hope is Gone, but still gets in its own way a bit much. Basically, the tracks that are good really recall the best band has done, but the stinkers are just as bad as the bands worst. | | 6 |  | Slipknot
All Hope Is Gone
I saw it mentioned that Paul Gray had a tirade about not being mall metal following Vol. 3 which is funny considering they go and release their most mall metal release afterward. Band obviously had no idea or faith in their vision and it shows with an album that only gets it right a few times; a sordid, confused ordeal. | | 7 |  | Slipknot
The End, So Far
Lol this is pretty stinky idgaf if it is a "finish a contract album". Kinda starts in a whiplash manner from bad to good, but then settles for mediocrity for majority of album. Not much to miss if skipping this one imo. | |

09.13.25 | Figured I may as well do these as I finish different artists discographies so I have it more fresh in the mind. | Middle18
09.14.25 | Swap 2 with 4 and that would be my list...good work! | JDubb
09.14.25 | TESF - sorry, this album feels right after spending the last 26 years with Slipknot. Has some of the best brooding and proggy Slipknot tracks, along with WANYK. | RVAHC13

09.15.25 | I love seeing Vol 3 at 1. Was my favourite of theirs since the first listen. Imo it should look like this: Vol 3, Iowa, S/T, All Hope is Gone, We Are Not Your Kind, The Gray Chapter, The End So Far
I like your ranking, hate the AHIG slander tho :D

09.16.25 | I'd put AHIG a lot closer to the top tbh, one of my favs from them. | Christbait
09.16.25 | 1. Iowa
2. Slipknot
3. Vol 3.
Whatever else. All Hope is Gone's best attribute was the insanely fun pre-release stuff they did with the giant paper-mache heads alluding to new mask changes. We should rank these albums by which ones featured the best masks. I loved Corey's AHIG mask. | cycosynner
09.16.25 | Iowa's a classic but the rage limits the listenability. I'm fairly grumpy, tbh, but I'm usually a bit too chill to get Iowa levels of mad. | qwenta
09.17.25 | Everylist not showing Slipknot - Slipknot as #1 is baaad. | troyofyort
09.18.25 | Slipknot s/t had to many pointless moments for me to consider it their best tbh. A ranking for the masks would be fun. I legit was expecting more from AHIG because its the masks I liked the most along with Vol. 3. | cycosynner
