Right from the introductory shriek and grind of "(515)," you know Slipknot are deadly serious about making a real heavy metal album. Iowa is intimidating in its unforgiving heaviness. Produced to perfection by wunderkind Ross Robinson, it takes the best of Slayer as a starting point. "People = Shit," "The Heretic Anthem," and "New Abortion" are relentless and wholly brutal, but this is no mere thrash. "Disasterpiece" features a weird, hypnotic riff, while "Left Behind" comes across like a duet between Alice in Chains' Layne Staley and Slayer's Tom Araya. The rerecorded "Gently" builds slowly from industrial atmospherics to a punishing explosion of noise. The title track (also old and formerly known as "Killers Are Quiet") is a deeply unsettling heavy-metal "Midnight Rambler." Frontman Corey Taylor claims to have performed it naked and bleeding from self-inflicted wounds, which isn't hard to believe. This masterfully constructed collection is painfully raw and utterly compelling. --Dominic Wills

This Is One Of Slipknot's Best Albums.
Better Than Their Debut.
Some Of My Favorite Songs Are
I Am Hated,People=S***,Skin Ticket,Left Behind
I'm Not Sure If It's Their Best,Its At Least One Of Their Best
IT's Worth Buying Even Though It's Not Real Cheap
Their Are Two Covers You Can Get There
Is A: Red Cover & White/Gray Cover
I Think That There Were More Copys Of The Red Cover Than White

I must be careful about how I educate the unfortunate anger addicts who think this band and disc are anything better than mediocre. The rage-aholics are too desperate to shout down any opposition or difference of opinion. So I'll be gentle with you tender, delicate kittens. OK? This band and disc are not even as good as the worst crap grunted out by Judas Priest or Iron Maiden, who at least realized how odd it is to have a room full of sweating, writhing young males all adoring them. Rob Halford certainly appreciated it, again and again. So you remember that, you men among men, as you pump your fists in the air and pump whatever else this music tells you to. This disc bites. AC/DC kicks its ass!!!! That's a homoerotic joke. Get it? You confused, disturbed sex farts are just so cute...

I have three copies of Iowa, since i was 13 years old, that was five years ago. I have listened to all of their albums again,and again over the years. Iowa is my favorite album by Slipknot, and is in my top favorite five albums of all time. When I first started to listen to Slipknot back in August 2004, I started out with Vol 3 The Subliminal Verses, a neighbor of mine at the time let me borrow the album for about two weeks, and when they wanted it back I didn't want to, but I did, a few days later I bought my own copy and now I have the regular version released in 2004, and the special edition with two discs in 2005. Ever since then I have been following them closely. I also have three copies of Slipknot's self titled album. I wish Slipknot would go back into the studio, and make another Iowa which I think will never happen again. They should at lest re release Iowa in 2011 when it's been 10 years since the album was released. Iowa got me into death metal, I know Iowa isn't death metal, but this album is very intense. I hope Slipknot is around for many years to come, because I personally think they are one of the best bands in metal.

I previously had a review on here that ended up going awry, I got mad half way thru it and started ranting on All Hope Is Gone and how bad it sux. I felt stupid because I already did it once. So here's a better one (not to satisfy the poser that voted my review unhelpful mind you).
This album is fu**ing amazing. It's darker than the first, I wouldn't say heavier or angrier but definitley darker. Great technical work on the drums by Joey, especially on Disasterpiece which is in my opinion the best song on the album. Corey's last stand as an amazing vocalist, and the last album Clown had hardly anything to do with. Ironic, but that's as far as I'll go. Overall, if you like the 1st album then get this one.
