“**💭 Thoughts:** On Slipknot’s 2001 album *Iowa*, titled after their home state, they continuing embracing their sound from their self-titled debut—screamed vocals, crushing, down-tuned speed riffs, and fast-paced, double bass, drumming—ultimately working in their favour. Not my personal favorite Slipknot album, but definitely up there.
