Editorial Review:
Product Description: Special Edition includes bonus tracks and a DVD featuring the making of All Hope Is Gone. After over 5 million albums sold in the US, Slipknot returns with their most powerful statement yet - All Hope Is Gone. Filled with the fury people have come to expect from Slipknot as well as some extraordinary surprises, this album is the culmination of the band' s 9 unique members, three platinum albums and their 10 year journey at the top of the Hard Rock genre. Kicked off by the powerful crescendo that is Execute and Gematria (The Killing Name) and ending with the blistering track All Hope Is Gone - the album is a cohesive statement about the world today and truly cements the band as one of Rock' s heavyweights. The lead single Psychosocial will propel the new album to match and exceed the success of the last album, Vol 3: Subliminal Verses which produced numerous Top 20 songs at Rock radio including a Top 5 track at Active and Modern Rock radio.

After being a fan of slipknot since the 7th grade after discovering that such a crazy band existed of psychopathic mask wearing maniacs, I've listened to every slipknot album with the exception of 9.0 live, seen them live, and have their disasterpieces dvd. I have to say that after the raw animalistic sound of their debut album, their more streamlined sophmore album, and their more mature and experimental 3rd album, I was not too sure how their 4th studio album would sound, and after giving it a listen, I have to say it brought a smile to my face. The album is like a sample platter of each of their previous albums, songs sounding very heavy, some more streamlined, and some soft, there are also some more experimental songs on here that are very ...

All Hope is Gone starts out much the same as the other Slipknot albums. They build you up with an intro track and you lose your mind on the first song. All is certainly good there.
After that, Slipknot attempts to evolve into a band that should be called, Slip-Sour.
Instead of keeping up the pace with the blistering, opening track, "Gematria (The Killing Name)", they go into a mid-tempo, radio-friendly rocker. Granted, there is always some of that on their albums and often they are good songs. "Sulfur" IS a good song. Unfortunately, it isn't even the most commercial song on here by any stretch.
The hardest aspect to deal with is that Corey sings WAY too much on this album. If I wanted the Stone Sour ... Read More:

It's been way too long since the last Slipknot album. This one is no disappointment, there are a few kind of slow songs that remind me of Stonesour but the heavy songs are sick. A must have.

maybe theyve always been immature and its taken me this long to figure it out? idk...
after reading through reviews here amazon, it leaves me wondering. are they wrong or am i?
i think this album is amazing. theres really not a bad song on the album, except dead memories. i dont get why slipknot put a stonesour song on thier album.
let me break it down for you.
execute- the typical intro. builds a nice atmosphere for the album.
gematria- what can i say about this song that everyone else hasnt? most reviews ive read completely bash the album and say gematria and psychosocial are the best songs EVAR!! whatever.
sulfur- nice song. i like the double kick with the heavy guitars. ... Read More:
