Due to miscommunication, the first press of vinyl and cassette versions are mistakenly titled "The End For Now..." instead of The End, So Far. Some copies received a sticker with the correct album name. Furthermore, track 2 is titled "Dying Song" instead of "The Dying Song (Time To Sing)" and track 5 is titled "Hivemind" instead of "Hive Mind".

The fourth full-length studio album by legendary American Nu Metal band.
The band’s only album produced by Rick Rubin, and also the only one not to feature harsh profanity.
Following the band’s tour to promote its second album in 2002, speculation regarding the future began. Some band members had already been involved in side projects including Murderdolls, To My Surprise, and the reformation of Stone Sour. However, in 2003, Slipknot moved into The Mansion to work on the album.
Initially, the band was unproductive; lead vocalist Corey Taylor was drinking heavily. Nevertheless, they wrote more than enough material for a new album - the band’s first to incorporate more traditional, melodic song structures, guitar solos and acoustic guitars.
"Vol. 3" shares its lyrical themes of anger, disaffection, and psychosis with most of Slipknot's Nu-Metal peers, what makes it tick is the dedication to making it a Slipknot album, and not just another flashy Alt-Metal billboard. The seething anger and preoccupation with pain is valid because it's componential to the band's uniquely branded havoc.
Rubin is integral to the album's power, his cataclysmic vocal filters and arrays of unidentifiable squiggle and squelch unite "Vol. 3"'s various portions in wildly different ways. It's a satisfying, carefully crafted representation of their career to date.
The album peaked within the top ten in album sales across eleven countries, and went Platinum in the United States. The band also received the Grammy Award for Best Metal Performance for the song "Before I Forget". At the end of 2009, "Before I Forget" was listed as AOL’s "Top Metal Song of the Decade". Roadrunner Records have listed the music video for "Duality" as the best video in Roadrunner history.

The first re-release of the seventh full-length studio album by legendary American Nu Metal band.
"We Are Not Your Kind" sees a confidant and apoplectic Slipknot in full command of their craft, delivering a searing 14-track set that's as versatile as it is observant of Nu-Metal's architectural truisms. Far removed from the desultory aggro-Metal being dished out by veteran contemporaries like Saliva and Limp Bizkit, "We Are Not Your Kind" bristles with both intent and imagination. Corey Taylor and company have weathered their fair share of personal and professional woes over the years -- overdose, divorce, line-up changes, and lawsuits, not to mention an increasingly mercurial musical landscape -- but they have consistently managed to turn misfortune into grist for the sonic mill.
"We Are Not Your Kind" opened at the top ten on more than 20 album charts, debuting atop about 10 (including Australian, Belgian, Canadian, Finnish, Irish, Portuguese, Spanish, British, and American charts). The album debuted atop the US Billboard 200 with 118 000 album-equivalent units, including 102 000 pure album sales, becoming Slipknot's third consecutive album to reach the country's summit after "All Hope Is Gone" and ".5: The Gray Chapter". The album debuted at number one on the UK Albums Chart, preventing Ed Sheeran's No.6 "Collaborations Project" from getting a fifth consecutive week at the top spot by selling 31 800 units in its first week, including 25 500 physical copies. This would give the band its first UK number one since 2001's "Iowa".

Smashed Ruins is a two man's Black Metal project from Germany with a goal: create atmosphere without distracting vocals and thus add a new dimension to the musical scene. Those who expect endless guitar licks and loads of melodic passages will be disappointed by SILENCE. Seven songs without vocals (apart from some screams) that actually create some sort of dark atmosphere.
At the end of the day this record is more or less an atmospheric Black Metal record that spares us the vocals. Anyhow, you should check those guys out.

The debut single by Ukrainian Hard Rock/Stoner Metal band.
Powerful riffs, relentless rhythm, piercing vocals, virtuosic solos - this is what you will hear in “Paradise Lost”.
The single was created in the wake of the impressions of Metal music of the 1980’s with the notable inclusions of Modern Metal.
 A huge influence on writing of the song had Metallica, Avenged Sevenfold, Godsmack, and Paradise Lost!

Second full-length album by Greek Melodic Heavy/Power Metal band.
With Snowblind, Mike G. (ex-Nighfall guitarist) shown his intentions to try another kind of craftmanship. In specific: Mike's voice is 'smoky', passionate and limited to a normal 'pitch'. He does sound narrative from time to time, while lovers of frontmen like e.g. Rhett Forrester (Riot - R.I.P.), Jay C. Blade (Oz), Mike Scalzi (Slough Feg) and Ronald Van Prooien (Picture) will applaud with delight and followers of Nick Holmes (Paradise Lost) will also find enough interest. The guitars' presence is typical for the genre, with simple yet ample riffs endorsed by 'roving' solos (some fine leads - referring to Iron Maiden and British Metal - included, too).
Must for all fans of Heavy and Power Metal!!
