Description
First Slipknot album after Paul Gray’s passing and without Joey Jordison, .5: The Gray Chapter channels loss into grim clarity. Custer’s barked “Cut, cut, cut!” detonates into a nasty snare flurry that feels like the old chaos refined. The Devil in I threads a huge, wounded chorus through precision chug, and Killpop’s shift from sleek melody to teeth-bared stomp still surprises.
As a 2LP, the spread gives the arrangements room to breathe; low end sits deeper and the guitars don’t smear together. Imaging feels clearer, so those percussion layers and Corey’s breaths between lines land with intent. Artwork presentation is strong across the gatefold, too.
In the Slipknot story this sits between Iowa’s grind and Vol. 3’s dynamics, a late-era reset that rewards front-to-back plays. It belongs right beside those records on your shelf, and alongside other heavy hitters who kept things inventive in the 2010s. If you’d rather order online, you can buy Slipknot records online with us.
Our shop take: it’s a tough, cathartic set with enough hooks to pull in lapsed fans and enough bile to keep lifers happy. Turn up Custer for the pure adrenaline, then ride The Devil in I to hear how they rebuilt. Still hits hard at party volumes yet opens up on headphones.
Grab it online now or drop in to our Melbourne shop and take it home today.
