Slipknot is an American heavy metal band from Des Moines, Iowa. Formed in 1995, the group was founded by percussionist Shawn Crahan and bassist Paul Gray. After several lineup changes in their early days, the band consisted of nine members for the greater part of their tenure: Sid Wilson, Paul Gray, Joey Jordison, Chris Fehn, Jim Root, Craig Jones, Shawn Crahan, Mick Thomson, and Corey Taylor. However, the death of Paul Gray on May 24, 2010, left the band with only eight remaining members. Former guitarist Donnie Steele was the band's touring bassist in 2011.
Slipknot is well known for its attention-grabbing image, aggressive music style, and energetic and chaotic live shows. The band had somewhat of a meteoric rise to success following the release of their self-titled debut album in 1999. The 2001 follow-up album Iowa further increased the band's popularity. After breaking for their first hiatus, Slipknot returned in 2004 with Vol. 3: (The Subliminal Verses) and once again in 2008 with their fourth album All Hope Is Gone, which debuted at the top spot on the Billboard 200. The band has also released one live album and four DVDs.

Plot: The fate of a group of government operatives - four women, DisKO, SlipKnot, Bug and HollowPoint; and one man, T-Rex - depends on their ability to fit back into regular society, following years of U.S. Military spookery on dangerous foreign soil. Having recently returned to the United States where they struggle to re-enter a new and unfamiliar culture, the group inadvertently stumbles upon a pair of demented, home-grown sociopaths , Bird and Bard Osterman, whose mission of destruction and insane self-gratification threatens global moral order. The former spooks' razor-sharp instincts and relentless spirit gives them the edge they need to chase down these wealthy and over the top jet setters who threaten countless innocent lives.

My self-affliction fades
Stones to throw at my creator
Masochists to which I cater
Chorus
You don't need to bother;
I don't need to be
I'll keep slipping farther
But once I hold on,
I won't let go 'til it bleeds
Wish I was too dead to care
If indeed I cared at all
Never had a voice to protest
So you fed me shit to digest
I wish I had a reason;
my flaws are open season
For this, I gave up trying
One good turn deserves my dying
Chorus
[Solo: Corey]
Wish I'd died instead of lived
A zombie hides my face
Shell forgotten
with its memories
Diaries left
with cryptic entries
Chorus
You don't need to bother;
I don't need to be
I'll keep slipping farther
But once I hold on:
I'll never live down my deceit
