I've returned to Debaser because the true new metal needs its spokesperson who isn't afraid to say what they think and isn't afraid of others' judgments about themselves and the albums they review.
"All Hope Is Gone" is an album that's already been released, specifically for a while now. So many riffs in this new masterpiece from Slipknot, just as there are many riffs that get smashed on Mick Thomson's guitar. And so, with stones thrown with a baseball bat like Gematria, it's clear that Slipknot are truly strong. I recommend it.
Tracklist and Lyrics
01 All Hope Is Gone (04:45)
The state of the nation - violation!
A broken promise is as good as a lie.
The hell is humongous, the devil's among us
and we will burn because we won't unite!
We won't witness anymore freedom.
Where is anybody? Do we need 'em?"
I would rather fight,
than let another die.
We're the problem,
but we're also the solution.
ALL HOPE IS GONE!!!
If you want you cannot take it from me.
If you think you can, you still don't know me.
Let me tell you, when I said it, I meant it
and I will always have the right to defend it.
Fifty seconds, a hundred murders.
The bill of rights is a bill of sale.
What will you do when the war is over?
What will you do when your systems fail!?
[chorus]
We have made the presence -obsolete.
What do you want?
What do you need?
We'll find a way,
When all hope is gone!
We've seen the fall of the elite.
Bury your life,
Take your disease.
We'll end the world,
when all hope is gone!
[chorus]
The wretched are the wounded,
The hungry starved to death.
At a place where no-one goes,
the air itself is a final breathe.
So discontinue,
the antisceptic cash charade.
As the cry of justice comes,
Our malignant fire fades.
I am the reason your future suffers.
I am the hatred you won't embrace.
I am the worm of a pure distinction.
I am the remedy, spit in my face!
All your lies and wars are out-dated.
All your subjects are dulling mind games.
I can rattle off a million other reasons why
but doesn't matter when the only thing we love will die.
[chorus 2x]

By Zio_Ozzy
"The song immediately kicks off very strong with a very aggressive instrumental part."
"If the whole album is like 'All Hope Is Gone', we can expect one of the best albums from the 'knot."
By emanuele
"Slipknot is back much more intense than before, with that renewed anger that gave birth to 'Slipknot' and 'Iowa'."
Corey’s voice here sounds much dirtier and more gritty and, in a sense, also more interesting and unique.
By wish
"This work is exactly what the previous album 'Vol 3 The Subliminal Verses' and the Taylor and Root project 'Stone Sour' predicted for the band’s future: a remarkable melodic addition to the usual brutal and death-leaning style Slipknot had accustomed us to."
"If one is too attached to the old Slipknot, the title of the work will be extremely prophetic."
By velu
"All Hope Is Gone is a real wonder for the ears, it’s great to sing at the top of your lungs."
"This album makes us understand that experience has made the 9 masked men take giant steps... definitively METAL!"
By Tanzi
"This album is truly excellent, the band’s best, and I don’t regret rushing to my trusted shop on the day it was released."
"’Snuff’ is one of the jewels of the album, marking the band’s maturation with an unprecedented ballad in their history."
