So I hear Slipknot for quite a while and already possess the albums "Slipknot" and "Iowa". and who knows these CD's, know that the CD's slipknot rather noisy and aggressive and is the non-stop. so it's more what the hard ^^, nene But the new album is just great, I've even heard before the Slipknot has changed, but so ... nen circle how many degrees? 360, right? then slipknot has rotated 360 °! because there are no longer just loud songs and endless roar without much text here, but also melody and rhythm have found their way in the music of Slipknot! and it's good! There's even a song where accompanied with rhythm guitar and piano ... and there are also songs where you can get to hear sadness, what is for slipknot already really strong. So I can recommend this album to any of the other stands on slipknot, but also where the more also are music with melody and good lyrics (but the music is still loud !!)
