On Tour - Slipknot Tickets

Slipknot will embark on the U.S. portion of their All Hope Is Gone tour starting in January 2009. The tour is in support of their recently released fourth studio album All Hope Is Gone. The U.S.leg comes on the heels of a late 2008 tour through Europe, Japan, Australia, and the United Kingdom that saw the band join up with thrash metal band Machine Head and Finnish melodic death metal band Children of Bodom. Slipknot was also a headliner at the summer 2008 Mayhem Festival. For much of the U.S. tour, Slipknot will share the stage with progressive rock group Coheed & Cambria. Slipknot will give 35 performances in 34 cities including Des Moines, Iowa, Greensboro, North Carolina, Houston, Texas, and Inglewood, California.

The U.S. tour follows what has been one of the most successful Slipknot albums to date. All Hope Is Gone debuted at number one on the Billboard 200, which is a first for the band, and their highest ranking album thus far. It also debuted as number one on several other charts around the world and in the top ten in over a dozen countries. The album has sold over 500,000 units so far and has been certified gold. The album was praised by many critics, with Darren Ratner of Blender stating that Slipknot is able to "make ugliness sound just a little bit pretty," and Jim Kaz of IGN writing that the classical metal emphasis of the album was "the best career move they could have made."

Ticket sales for All Hope Is Gone tour opened on December 3 to fans who bought copies of the album, giving them the first choice in tickets. General ticket sales opened on December 5. There are still many tickets that are up for grabs, so be sure to use TicketNetwork in order to get the best selection of Slipknot tickets!

About Slipknot

Formed in Des Moines, Iowa in 1995, Slipknot was started by drummer Shawn Crahan, vocalist Anders Colsefini and bassist Paul Gray as "The Pale Ones." The band went through a couple changes in name and lineup before settling on the name "Slipknot" and current roster of Crahan, Gray, disc jockey Sid Wilson, drummer Joey Jordison, percussionist Chris Fehn, guitarist Jim Root, sampler Craig Jones, lead guitarist Mick Thomson, and lead vocalist Corey Taylor. The band released two demo albums, Mate, Feed, Kill , Repeat and Slipknot Demo, independently before being signed to RoadRunner Records in 1997. It was also during these early years that Slipknot began experimenting with the makeup and masks that would eventually form their distinctive on-stage look.

The early albums gained Slipknot a strong following which grew tremendously when they attended Ozzfest in May 1999. That June, they released their epynomous debut album, Slipknot. Peaking at #51 on the Billboard charts and having since been certified double platinum, the album gained the band quite a bit of notice from the metal community. Slipknot got right to work recording their second album. They toured with System of a Down in order to promote it, and in August 2001 the band released Iowa, named after their home state. By that time, Slipknot's popularity was enough to shoot the album straight up to #3 and a platinum certification. Following the release of the album, the band parted ways for nearly two years while many of the members worked on side projects, including forming or re-forming old bands, such as Stone Sour, the Murderdolls, and To My Surprise.

Slipknot reunited in 2003 amid speculation on the band's future to work on their third album with producer Rick Rubin. Vol. 3 (The Subliminal Verses) was released in May 2004 and peaked at #2 on the Billboard 200 and was in the top five in at least half a dozen other countries. The album was in part experimental in nature as it included songs, such as "Vermillion Pt. 2" and "Circle," that featured significant acoustic guitar play. The next year, on November 1, 2005, Slipknot released their first and as of yet only live album, 9.0: Live, which including portions of concerts from Phoenix, Arizona, Las Vegas, Nevada, Osaka and Tokyo, Japan, and Singapore. 9.0 reached #17 on the Billboard charts. In August 2008, the group released their fourth studio album, All Hope is Gone, which debuted at #1.

Slipknot Trivia

• Slipknot cites several influences in their work, including AC/DC, Slayer and Korn, among many others.
• According to All Music Guide, Slipknot's distinctive face masks and anonymity on stage stem from the ridicule they received while working in the band's hometown of Des Moines, Iowa.
• In late 2002, while responding to questions about the band's future, Slipknot lead vocalist Corey Taylor said that the band would rather break up than become "the next GWAR", presumably referring the high turnover of the fellow metal band's members. The statement provoked a furious response from GWAR frontman Oderus Urungus and a brief feud.
• Slipknot affectionately calls its fans "maggots."
