The Profile

Slipknot is an American heavy metal band formed in Des Moines, Iowa, in the mid-1990s, known for a nine-member lineup, distinctive masks and aggressive, percussion-forward music.

Known for breakthrough albums such as Slipknot (1999) and Iowa (2001), for intense live shows and for a stylistic evolution that has divided critics and fans. Reviews on DeBaser reference their studio albums, live releases and DVDs, lineup changes and the death of bassist Paul Gray (as reported in reviews).

DeBaser reviews span Slipknot's discography from the debut through recent albums and live/DVD releases. Early records and live intensity are frequently praised; later releases provoke debate over melody vs. brutality. Reviews note strong drumming, signature masks/image, and a polarizing evolution.
