Biography

Slipknot is a metal band from Des Moines, Iowa, formed by vocalist [a=Anders Colsefni], percussionist [a=Shawn Crahan] and bassist [a=Paul Gray (3)] in September 1995. At first, they called themselves "The Pale Ones", then debuted as "Meld" on November 5, 1995, and finally settled on "Slipknot", a suggestion by drummer Jordison. They also performed at least two shows in June 1996 under the moniker "Pygsystem". Since their inception, the band went through various lineup changes and eventually ended up with nine members shortly before their signing to [l34268] in July 1998, to which they remained signed until April 1, 2023. Their best known lineup was completed with the addition of guitarist [a=James Root] in January 1999; it would last until the death of Gray on May 24, 2010, and Jordison's firing on December 12, 2013. Subsequently, Alessandro Venturella and Jay Weinberg were brought in as replacements on bass and drums, respectively. In early 2019, Fehn was fired and replaced by Michael Pfaff. In June 2023, the band announced their split from sampler and keyboarder Craig Jones, whose position was filled by a currently unidentified person. In October that year, they also announced their split from drummer Jay Weinberg; Eloy Casagrande was announced as the group's new drummer in May 2024. Ex-members: [a=Anders Colsefni] - vocals, percussion (September 1995–September 1997) [a=Brandon Darner] - percussion (July–August 1998) [a=Chris Fehn] - percussion (1998–March 2019) [a=Craig Jones (2)] - sampling, keyboards (March 1996–June 2023) [a=Donnie Steele] - lead and rhythm guitars (September 1995–1996), bass guitar (2011–2014) [a=Greg Welts] - percussion (September 1997–July 1998) [a=Joey Jordison] - drums (September 1995–December 2013, † July 2021) [a=Josh Brainard] - lead and rhythm guitars, backing vocals (September 1995–January 1999) [a=Kun P. Nong] - guitar (September 1995, rehearsals only) [a=Paul Gray (3)] - bass guitar (September 1995–† May 2010) [a=Jay Weinberg] - drums (2013–2023)

LYRICS

(Oh Yea) I did my time, and I want out
So effusive
Fade
It doesn't cut,
The soul is not so vibrant
The reckoning, the sickening
Packaging subversion
Pseudo-sacrosanct perversion
Go drill your deserts,
Go dig your graves
Then fill your mouth
With all the money you will save
Sinking in, getting smaller again
Im done, it has begun
I'm not the only one

And the rain will kill us all,
Throw ourselves against the wall
But no one else can see,
The preservation of the martyr in me

Psychosocial, psychosocial, psychosocial
Psychosocial, psychosocial, psychosocial

Oh, there are cracks, in the road we laid
But where the temple fell,
The secrets have gone mad!
This is nothing new,
But when we kill it all,
The hate was all we had!
Who needs another mess?
We could start over!
Just look me in the eyes
And say I'm wrong
Now there's only emptiness...
Venomous, insipid!
I think we're done
I'm not the only one!

And the rain will kill us all,
Throw ourselves against the wall
But no one else can see,
The preservation of the martyr in me

THE LIMITS OF THE DEAD!
THE LIMITS OF THE DEAD!
THE LIMITS OF THE DEAD!
THE LIMITS OF THE DEAD!

Fake Anti-Fascist Lie,
(Psychosocial),
I tried to tell you,
(Psychosocial),
But your purple hearts are giving out,
(Psychosocial),
Can't stop the killing idea,
(Psychosocial),
If it's hunting season,
(Psychosocial),
Is this what you want?,
(Psychosocial),
I'm not the only one!

And the rain will kill us all,
Throw ourselves against the wall
But no one else can see,
The preservation of the martyr in me

And the rain will kill us all,
Throw ourselves against the wall
But no one else can see,
The preservation of the martyr in me.
