For those of you who didn't know... All Hope Is Gone is the fourth studio album by American metal band Slipknot. It was released on August 20, 2008, by Roadrunner Records. A special edition of the album contains three bonus tracks, and is packaged in a six-fold digipak with a 40-page deluxe booklet and bonus DVD containing a documentary of the album's conception. The album was Slipknot's first #1 debut on the Billboard 200. Noted to have begun preparation in 2007, recording was due to begin in January 2008; however, it was delayed to February. It is the band's first studio release since 2004's Vol. 3: (The Subliminal Verses), making All Hope Is Gone their fourth studio album as well as the first musical output from the band since Corey Taylor and Jim Root's mainstream success with Stone Sour; Joey Jordison's stints with Korn, Ministry and 3 Inches of Blood; Shawn Crahan's side project Dirty Little Rabbits; and Sid Wilson's solo project. All Hope Is Gone is also the band's first studio album released by a major label to be recorded in their home state of Iowa. Unlike previous releases, all nine band members were involved in the writing process of the album, reportedly writing over 30 songs. Jordison reveals, "I have to say that the band is at its peak; everyone I mean everyone is now completely involved in the writing process, and it's a beautiful thing." When questioned about the process, vocalist Taylor explained that the cycle was not met without conflict. He went on to add that the creation of every Slipknot album has had conflict and that the band has come to embrace it, as they realize it is what brings out their creativity. Also for the first time, some members of the group separated themselves from the band to write some tracks. Vocalist Taylor and guitarist Jim Root paired up with turntablist Sid Wilson (performing on keyboards) and percussionist Shawn Crahan (who took up full drumming duties) to work on what was described as "oblique, arty pieces." One experiment saw Taylor tracking in an old well, he enthused, "there was this natural reverb to it that was just intense." Crahan would later reveal that none of these tracks made it on to the album. However, one of which, "Til We Die" does appear as a bonus track on the special edition. During an interview with LiveDaily, guitarist Root expressed some discontent over the process of the record, stating that "it felt a little bit rushed. And it felt like we were trying to do things just to appease a schedule, which I didn't really like." On the subject of the record's producer, Root went on to say, "Dave Fortman really helped me appreciate Rick Rubin as a producer," and that, "[Fortman] wasn't able to get nine people together on the same page and, to me, that's the most important thing in making a Slipknot record." In an interview in the October 2008 issue of Guitar World, Root went as far as saying that Fortman didn't produce the album, adding; "I'd honestly have to say that he was really just a good engineer. He didn't do what I'm used to with producers." He then again expressed his frustration with the way the album came together, saying "I don't want to make another album the way we made this one; I just don't think it's a good way to make a record. I might as well have stayed at my house in Florida, and we could have FTP'd files back and forth." Prior to the release of All Hope Is Gone, copies of the album intended for reviewers were pressed under the false name "Rusty Cage," in order to reduce risks of the album leaking to the Internet early. Not as good as Volume 3, but lives up to their standards. Enjoy a free copy! Slipknot - All Hope Is Gone (2008)(320Kbps) [ www.sendspace.com ] |

 Coolness: 685625 | yeah.. it's not that bad, but it's not all that great.. The best part I find is that they're adding solos back, which metal was seriously lacking.. But the emo choruses have GOT to go.. Corey needs to get back to destroying his vocalchords yelling untill his throat bleeds. |
| I'm feeling major nerdage right now.. | |

| Coolness: 282490 | I don't hear the "emo" qualities in his voice though. I hear a harsh-soulful tone; almost country-ish,
like a Blues-y quality to it which definitely makes it sad, but not like a whiny emo singer at all. Emotional lyrics and choruses they are, but not overly pussy. |
