One of the most interesting songs on the album is “Spiders.” This song really brings out the creepiness the band is able to portray in their music, giving off a feel reminiscent of horror movie musical themes. Though the song is only one minute and 21 seconds long, its tone is scary enough to be memorable. “Death Because of Death” creates a creepy vibe with static as the introduction, accompanied by a piano and the words “death because of, death because of you.” The added effect of a repeating bass drum is almost like a ritualistic chanting. “Insert Coin” begins the album with various electronic elements that mix together to create a spacey feel of what is to come, which is almost confirmed by the only lyrics in the song- “I am counting all the killers” - which are sung at the end. “Insert Coin” and “Death Because of Death” start off the album by conveying melancholy instead of the normal heavy pounding aggressiveness that is typical of Slipknot. The album beat albums from other popular artists like Rick Ross, Trippie Redd, Billie Eilish and Ed Sheeran for the top spot, making it the first time a hard rock or heavy metal album has debuted at the top since the Foo Fighters’ “Concrete and Gold” in 2017.Īfter listening to the album, I realized how distinct it is from Slipknot’s earlier work within the first few songs. 9, caught attention from the public and became the band’s third consecutive No. Slipknot’s “We Are Not Your Kind,” released Aug. A new album jumped through the Billboard 200 to the first slot in August.
