Slipknot is cranking up the volume as they mark their 25th anniversary with the announcement of a deluxe reissue of their legendary self-titled debut album. Hitting the shelves on September 5, this special edition boasts a whopping 59 tracks—yes, you read that right—40 of which are previously unreleased demos, alternate mixes, and live recordings. It’s like a treasure trove for every maggot out there! Can you imagine the behind-the-scenes magic captured in these tracks?

The excitement doesn’t stop there. A limited edition run of 100 “blood-filled” vinyl copies was released and sold out in mere seconds, crashing the band’s website like a headbanging crowd at a live show! The general box set, which features blood-splattered vinyl, is limited to 1,899 copies. Talk about a must-have collector’s item! Plus, they’re including all sorts of goodies—new artwork, rare photos, and even collectible photo cards. Who knew nostalgia could come with such a bloody twist?

In the spirit of celebration, Slipknot also took their iconic tour on the road, featuring throwback-heavy setlists that honor their debut era. Fans who managed to snag tickets are in for a wild ride, reliving the frenetic energy of Slipknot’s early years. So, what’s your favorite moment from the band’s journey?
