Episode 71: Slipknot Articles
Added 2025-07-11 20:01:03 +0000 UTCA new change: the articles posts will now be available to all of our members, including free. It's not public, you still have to have to be a member, but it's just a little gift to those who are along for the ride with us even if they aren't a paying member of the Patreon. And what a month to do it, as these Slipknot articles are nuts, particularly the Metal Edge one. Enjoy.
SPIN: "Slipknot: Children of the Corn" (May 2000)
This was from the Iowa press cycle but we missed it on the Iowa pod and it's got some good stuff about their gross myth-making, Ozzy Osbourne farting, and they hate Korn for "selling out".
Metal Edge: "The (sic) World of Slipknot" (June 2004)
The Slipknot article to end all Slipknot articles, this profile has insane writing by the author and insane quotes from the band about how other bands are copying them, more about how this recording process almost killed them, and how hard it is to tour.
Revolver: "Slipknot Look Back on Torment and Tumult Behind Vol. 3" (September 26, 2008)
In where Corey hates Rick Rubin and the other guys love him, Corey tells the story of kicking through the window of a pager store, and they all tell us how much they really, really didn't wanna record this album.
