Slipknot

Published October 2, 2008

Slipknot features DJ Sid Wilson, drummer Joey Jordison, bassist Paul Gray, percussionist Chris Fehn, guitarist James Root, sampler Craig Jones - 133, percussionist M. Shawn Crahan - Clown, guitarist Mick Thomson, and singer Corey Taylor. They're still heavy, still enamored of great, big walls of deeply textured layers of sound. But with their new album All Home Is Gone, they've approached their music with an eye towards stylistic expression that completely invalidates any and all comments about heavy metal clichés. Moreover, they've continued the exploration of melody that began on their first record. 

Play Frontlines against these heavy metal rockers.

"You know, we went from being some local band in a basement to selling millions of records," says Gray. "It's going to be a decade since the first album came out. I'm so happy and amazed and proud and thankful for where this band has gone. I've gotten to see the world—and I get paid for it!"

Want to take on these heavy metal rockers in Frontlines™: Fuel of War™? The two superpowers, the Western Coalition and the Red Star Alliance, are headed for the inevitable conflict. Join the battle on the frontlines today!
