Maximum Metal Rating Legend
5 Excellent - Masterpiece. A classic.
4.5-4 Great - Almost perfect records but there's probably a lacking.
3.5 Good - Most of the record is good, but there may be some filler.
3 Average - Some good songs, some bad ones at about a half/half ratio.
2.5-2 Fair - Worth a listen, but best obtained by collectors.
1.5-1 Bad - Major problems with music, lyrics, production, etc.
0 Terrible - Waste of your life and time.

Note: Reviews are graded from 0-5, anything higher or not showing is from our old style. Scores, however, do not reveal the important features. The written review that accompanies the ratings is the best source of information regarding the music on our site. Reviewing is opinionated, not a qualitative science, so scores are personal to the reviewer and could reflect anything from being technically brilliant to gloriously cheesy fun.

Demos and independent releases get some slack since the bands are often spent broke supporting themselves and trying to improve. Major releases usually have big financial backing, so they may be judged by a heavier hand. All scores can be eventually adjusted up or down by comparison of subsequent releases by the same band. We attempt to keep biases out of reviews and be advocates of the consumer without the undo influence of any band, label, management, promoter, etc.

The best way to determine how much you may like certain music is to listen to it yourself.

Take a look inside their fucked up world
Filmed by over 30 cameras during a performance at the London Arena, the insane 9-piece from Des Moines, Iowa known as Slipknot, give you Disasterpieces. Take a look inside their fucked up world with some backstage footage and witness firsthand, the mayhem that ensues on stage.

Nine of the 30-some cameras covering the spectacle are attatched to the members of the band in some way. Some have a small camera fixed on their mask, others have it on their guitar, some just have a simple cam holding a constant shot of them playing. All together, it makes for a viewing that's quite interesting.

The band rips through songs left and right and in between we get a glimpse of the efforts going into setting up a Slipknot show. From stage construction, sound checks and getting suited up to PR work, autograph sessions and hanging out backstage, you don't quite see it all, but they let you get just enough of a glimpse to know what it's like.

It's pretty safe to say that you have to be a Slipknot fan to wanna check this out, but if you've always wanted to see the craziness that "maggots" talk about after a Slipknot show but you've never wanted to plop down the $35 or $40 for a ticket, then maybe you'd like to check this out.

Special features include "Maggot Edits" where the DVD gives you two tracks to choose from and allows you to control which camera you're looking through. Also, with the ownership of this DVD you'll have all of Slipknot's videos to date immortalized on plastic.

I don't think there's much of a gray area with Slipknot, you either like them or you don't. I've liked the band for quite awhile now, hence the positive review. So for any Slipknot fans reading this, if you don't already have the DVD, pick it up and enjoy.
