Slipknot’s Sid Wilson Shares Shocking Story of Iowa Listening Party Gone Wrong

1. NOT so fun fact: We have all heard the intro to the album Iowa. The fact is? Sid Wilson has just recently lost his father. I’m not sure how… But anyways….
   The intro to the album, Iowa was a recording from Sid Wilson himself in the recording booth very shortly after his father had passed away.
   That was his legitimate guttural, absolute feelings, apparently how he felt at the time. So that’s what the intro to Iowa is.
   Also, I’m not really positive as to where the intro to the self titled slipknot album came from. But? I can tell you that it says “The whole thing I think is SIC” repeatedly.
   I’m pretty sure it was probably Clown, but I’m not positive. Props to anybody who read what I had to say, but it is the actual truth so every time I hear that intro? I get goosebumps and you know? It’s just something else when you know where it came from and why. 🤘
   Rest in peace, Paul Gray, and rest in peace Joey Jordison.

2. That is the most METAL story ever hahaha 🤘

3. Hmmm… there are a few inconsistencies in this story. Wasn't the subliminal verses (slipknot 3rd album with RR) the album that was recorded in Rick Ruben's Houdini Mansion?

4. You mean the drummer from papa roach isn’t even as much of a bad ass as I was at 8 years old. I was screaming along with it.

5. Glad we got to hear the real story as well.

6. Not gonna lie, I thought Sid was just bullshitting until the end. Lol

7. Sounds like a stroke.

8. I melt people's faces with it too when they ride in the vehicle with me 🤣

9. To have an album so heavy it melts faces has to be the most metal thing I’ve ever heard

10. am i the only one who thinks the debut is heavier?

11. so basically anything loud would have caused it

12. NO ME GUSTA SLIPKNOT AHORA COMO ANTES 1999 2001 2004 LOS MEJORES DISCOS

13. EPIC DISC IOWA 2001 BRUTAL SOUND EPIC MASK 😍😍😍😍

14. Dave was probably cooked as at the time, he was addicted to drinking and drugs unfortunately. The guy is very talented and going great now.

15. If only they could put something out that awesome again. I still love the knot and all their albums but let's be real here, they haven't touched those first two albums since with their following albums. Honestly I wish they'd revisit some of the vibes from self titled. There's a lot that didn't carry over from self titled to Iowa but Iowa was so insane it held its own. Like I said before, I like all their stuff (less so this last album TESF) but for me the first two are absolutely perfect. From star to finish masterpieces.

16. His face was melting because of all that coke they did 🤣

17. Freaking brutal!

18. LMFAO was Wilson on Acid at the time . I love Sid. Keep up the great content

19. So this is why my face is paralyzed? Actually I’ve been diagnosed with transgeminal neurology and it’s called the suicide disease. Because when it flares up it hurts so bad and it takes a psychological toll on you that you don’t know if you wanna go through it time and time again

20. That is the darkest heaviest nu metal LP of all time

21. Iowa was an amazing album but the first album put them on the map.

22. 1:03 what show is that clip from?

23. Love it ,so creepy with those sounds along with the screaming words of Keeping myself alive on the end of the track

24. Love it , I listened to this album while in my evening deer hunting treestand on my headphones, battling the inner thoughts of depression for no reason whatsoever, SKIN TICKET is powerful, a well done track that is haunting, but feels good at the same time, the screaming growling lyrics with the extra sounds creeping in around the layers ,the track ends with KEEPING MYSELF ALIVE, with that deep sound scraping or gouging at you. It felt like someone was telling you not to give up keep going, pretty cool music for us heavy music fans ,

25. His face didn't melt off, sid was just hallucinating from all the acid.

26. Think he meant looking like he was having a Stroke not a seizure!!!!

27. It’s called loud music kids…not Slipknot
