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.
"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."
"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.
"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."
"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!"
"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."
