The worthy set to music legacy Paul Grays

How I faith- looking forward to this day Slipknot release a new album. After the tragic death of bassist Paul Gray in May 2010 and the separation of drummer Joey Jordison at the beginning of the year the band had now lost two eminently important band members and it always seemed uncertain, as there still wants to accomplish the band, a new album to bring to the market that the name makes Slipknot honor. As the Albumtitiel .5 The Gray then leaked Chapter, it was clear that it will be a very emotional album in which to get rid of the past and Slipknot throughout the mourning for her lost brother Paul to try. The audio snippets on the band's website will then have already sparked a great deal of curiosity, which was lined with more publications of the songs The Negative One and The Devil In the more I.
The remaining seven have made it impressively with the recruitment of Alessandro Venturella on bass and Jay Weinberg behind the shooting, to compensate for the loss of Paul and Joey. Both new musicians, although not officially confirmed, or as a full member of the band, do a great job. In addition, between Corey Taylor and James Root is a certain tension after James was thrown out of the band Stone Sour. He wanted to completely dedicate the new Slipknot album and creativity einbringen- there and that's what he did impressively. On .5- The Gray Chapter To hear some of the best riffs Slipknot-.
You can feel how each member of the band this album puts his stamp. Long was heard not so much gescratche by DJ Sid Wilson. Or take the time percussion rare these were more in the center than on this album. We've tested new, different drums, as it can announce the Clown.

I do not want specifically to the individual songs incoming album itself is to be understood here as a collective work. But it is worthwhile to address a number of songs in particular: If one feels when standing for the number of tape years Intro XIX including sonically überstapelndem bagpipe use and the gloomy mood still on a requiem mass, you will überollt hereafter Sarcastrophe after its melodic intro then , These are Slipknot, how they liebt- sawing guitars, drums and a kanllende Corey Taylor in maximum From. Also the following song AOV (Approaching Original Violence)
one of the best Slipknot songs of modern times, including a wonderful melodic intermediate part and a great bass solo. Killpop is a number that you do not get out of your head after a short hearing, the song comes from the construction of very melodic and with mostly clean vocals out, he breaks towards the end by ala Prosthetics.
The following Skeptic one learns a direct homage to the man Paul Gray (You were a gift .. /), this song also has a great structure, slightly reminiscent of the Song Vol.3 Welcome and one of my favorites on the album. With Goodbye album also contains an emotional ballad, in the Corey describes the loss of his brother. The great Custer awakens again remembering Slipknot in their musical Iowa phase.

The band has not promised too much, you have with this CD found a successful combination of the hardness of Iowa and the melodies of Vol.3- The Subliminal Verses. The Vorwerk All Hope Is Gone is surpassed by far. You hear the new album to the significantly longer development phase, everything looks more detailed and perfect. Even the many fans after listening to The Devil In I prophesied Stone Sour Share this album is not nachzuweisen- it remains unmistakably Slipknot, and thus high worlds dadrüber.
They have managed to Paul to bequeath an impressive musical legacy. I would even say that it is one of the best things you ever heard of this band. I'm very excited about the perhaps last two concerts Germany in February of next year. You should definitely take with such a strong album in his luggage, the dates in Berlin and Hamburg. Especially since you can not even know if the Gray Chapter and the Chapter of this band is closed. And that's the beauty of this band, everything is possible!
