How To Book Slipknot For Your Event
Slipknot may be available for your next special event.

Started in 1995, Slipknot is a sonic collision of unstoppable music,
back-breaking stage shows, and visuals that will keep you looking over
your shoulder a full-frontal attack on every sense known to Man.
From the over-caffeinated beats and jungle scratches to the searing
riffs and driving vocals, the music has elements from almost every known
music in the world. It's also heavy as hell, and the feeling behind the
music is never more evident than seeing the live show.
The motto for Slipknot has always been 'no
limits,' in everyday life, on stage, even down to the tiniest details.
Nothing backs this up like their line-up: a main drummer, two stand-up
drummers, two guitarists, bass player, lead singer, DJ, and a sampler.
"We're like a white version of the
Wu-Tang Clan," drummer Joey Jordison jokes. This isn't just a band, but a family, an army, a
musician's wrecking crew.
Then there are the masks. This is no gimmick, but
almost an extension of each member's personality. "You're only free
until you come face to face with who you are," lead singer
Corey
Taylor said. "You deal with it, you accept it, then you revel in
it." "This is the first thing I've heard in the last two to
three years that's got me truly excited," said Monte Conner, senior
vice president of A&R at Roadrunner Records.
This band from Des Moines, Iowa, has gathered a loyal
following in the Midwest and surrounding states, selling out local shows
for the last two years. While unsigned, they played KKDM's Dotfests 1
and 2, local music festivals drawing more than 20,000 people and gaining
them exclusive media attention both times.
Their single, "Spit It Out," was the #1 most
requested song on KKDM for 3 months. It was added to the radio industry,
which caught the attention of Ross Robinson in January '97. Ross, who
calls them a "wolf pack of Beavises," helped Slipknot
get a spot on the EAT'M festival in Las Vegas. Extreme 107.5 in Vegas
added "Spit It Out" to their "Cagematch," pitting
songs against one another. Slipknot were champs for 5 weeks until
they were retired.
After EAT'M there were many offers from labels, and
the band finally signed with Roadrunner, where they feel "at home,
more like a family than a label."
Hits include: "Dead Memories",
"Duality",
"Snuff", "Psychosocial",
"Before I Forget",
"The Devil In I",
"Vermilion", "The Negative One",
"Sulfer", "Nameless", "Left Behind",
"Killpop",
"Wait And Bleed".
Other notable songs include: "Spit It Out",
"Liberate", "Tattered and Torn",
"Better Back Off",
"Scissors",
"Prosthetics", "Only One".
