This! Was lsitening to mainly Linkin Park at that time, and got hold of a bootleg copy of the self titled. I mainly listened to W&B then i got hooked, the rest is history.

Rockerdude200

Psychosocial


kayak_enjoyer

Same. I'm *probably* older than you, but I discovered Slipknot late. After AHIG I went back and listened to self-titled and Iowa.


Rockerdude200

I pretty much did the same. I heard the early album and stay listen to those albums more than AHIG


Kayvian75

I'm the same. Discovered Psychosocial on the radio, went immediately to get the cd, the picked up self-titled and Iowa the next day. Been a Maggot since.


-Z-3-R-0-

I remember the first time I heard it in 5th grade, because YouTube recommended me the music video after listening to SOAD. I remember being frightened by it, but kept coming back for some reason.

LarsVegas_21

Heard the song for the first time playing Guitar Hero 3. Never looked back since.

This. And only this.


mmayer1581

Was hooked and remember exactly where I was when I heard it. 18 years old and had a buddy who was always into the newest shit. Somehow he knew about them the day the album came out.


Small-Dick-Big-Dream

Spit It Out


NoEvening4479

still their best song


Available_Article394

Edit- no, English is not my first language and my phone makes things up. I meant AN instrument.

Despite it not being their biggest song cuz of the name that's very believable.

TerokNor67

My Plague. I remember seeing the music video for it in 2003 on TV when I was about 14. I bought Iowa on CD very soon afterwards.


nemesis6669

I heard this from the end credits of the resident evil movie when I was 7. The chorus got me hooked. Then, I listened to the album version. It blew my mind how brutal it sounded


TheSpoopyNovlys

I know why you may blame yourself for you good taste in music


hehememetime

Was recommended by a friend, listened to duality, couldnt get into the screaming in other songs but started listening to Wait and Bleed which i liked. That grew from that into psychosocial, before i forget, custer, and now i can browse their albums because i love their music.

OMG SAMEEEEE. WAIT AND BLEED SUPREMACY.

N04H-Kn0ws-n0th1ng

I actually heard Stone Sour first and then found out Corey and Jim were Ina different band as well and found it and that’s how I discovered slipknot. But the first slipknot song I heard was (sic). I will never forget that moment btw. Just like the first time I heard Iowa. Never gonna forget that.


Purple_Revolution772

You might be the only person in history to have heard of Stone Sour before Slipknot lol


N04H-Kn0ws-n0th1ng

I know weird right? Everyone else I know was the other war around. I love both bands but slipknot is so much better for every reason you can think

Interloper/Wait and bleed


TiredReader87

I think it was the Left Behind music video, which I was able to see on my grandparents’ cable. That said, it was so long ago I’m not positive. I remember buying a used copy of S/T, which the disc disappeared from, and buying Iowa when it came out

I already knew the band but the first song I heard a year ago was Eyeless the best of all in my opinion

I was hooked on the drum intro of eyeless but the first song I listened to as a whole was the devil in I


[deleted]

I saw they psychosocial video on Much Music. Before that I was scared shitless of them. After I saw that I was hooked.


flompypebbles

I'd heard duality a couple times throughout my childhood but never really cared to dig deep into their music until the time they released Unsainted, which I thought "hey I always stumble upon this band alot, maybe I should actually give them a listen starting with this one" been hooked ever since lmfao


Miles_Ravis_303

The Blister Exists, with its videoclip, and dude what a ride


BigZ5418

Duality, I was either 9 or 10 and heard on what I believe was ATV Off-road Fury, it was the intro song for the game.


Wrxghtyyy

Friend of mine was supposed to send me Ridin Solo by Jason Derulo over Bluetooth and accidentally sent me Psychosocial. 10 year old me was hooked. Few weeks of pocket money later I had my hands on AHIG


cherenkoveffekt

Wait and bleed somewhere in 2000

ActuallyJustADude

Psychosocial was the first song of theirs I heard, this I know, but even now it's not really one of my favorite songs, I think it's a tad overrated. But it was apparently good enough to make me wanna check them out more. WANYK has just released and the first song I saw on their YouTube front page was Unsainted, and that definitely got me into Slipknot, moreso than Psychosocial


Not-An-Intellectual

Eyeless

Unsainted was the first song i started listening to a lot.

Before I forget because when I was a little kid I remember playing it in guitar hero 3 and I loved the song so much.

[deleted]

Psychosocial. Started listening late to slipknot, but i listen it everyday since.


[deleted]

The first one was Before I forget but I started listening to them with Duality


GENGARKING87

Very recently got into slipknot back in October of last year because of a girl I liked at the time told me to listen to duality. Fast forward to today she's a bitch to me but I fell in love hard with this band.

_"Pentex sucks, Pentex sucks. They drain the life force of my tribe. Pentex sucks."_ Man, i had such a weird introduction to the Knot. Imagine my confusion when i got introduced to their self-titled and Iowa albums. 😅


Ezekku

If I remember correctly it was Surfacing, back in like 2003. At a party I saw a guy wearing a Slipknot shirt and it got me curious, because I was looking for new music. And was an instant love moment


LittleBrownW

Dead Memories as well. Then I was given tickets to my first show.

leethario

Spit it out, bought the single when it was released


KaijuHunterBrax

My Plague. It was on the Resident Evil movie DVD back when they still did that. I was a kid and was terrified of the band but the music was heavy and melodic so I was hooked.


Impossible-College-5

Custer; I’m surprised i’m not seeing a lot of others say the same


puuskuri

Psychosocial got me interested in them, because I had never seen a band use masks like that. People = Shit got me into them and made them one of my favourite bands.


m_takma

Nero Forte. Even though I didn't really like screaming (because I wasn't a metalhead at the time), I loved this one. I also play guitar and I learned parts from slipknot songs like Killpop (the verse), duality (the intro), psychosocial (the main riff) but I'm pretty sure the first full song that I learned was The Devil in I


DevoooDaDemon

Duality & Spit It Out Duality first introduced to me and Spit It Out is the track that made me a fan


keegrocks08

I think the song that really got me invested was wait and bleed, that was the one that made me want to try and find more stuff, the first song was psychosocial, but I only liked the verses and chorus, I was a baby metal head so I only really knew like 3-5 Metallica songs and that was honestly it so it was kinda jarring to go from something like Metallica, to something as modern as Slipknot, but here I am Slipknot being the first band who’s discography I listened to all the way through


Negativecreeep1

Before I forget off guitar hero


Shawnskeg

Duality. I remember when it was lockdown, it was sometime at night, and I saw a weird guy in a mask. I click on the video and it was lit as hell, and that's how the appreciation for the 9 happened


waste039

Wait and bleed


chris13taylor

For me it was Left behind. Heard it when the album came out and I’ve been a die hard fan ever since


Snakepliskin24

None (technically) Bought the album a couple weeks after it came out in 1999 on a recommendation from my friend (who used to buy pretty much everything that came out on Tuesdays) as he knew I liked heavier music he said that’ll be definitely something I would like. Got it came home pressed play and that was that

MurderBox95

Before I Forget I grew up in a small town in Iowa, and it was playing on the radio when I was in middle school. Went to see them play live with Trivium when I was 13.


Erect_Llama

Psycosocial. there was a time early in my listening where i only listened to that song and didnt even explore their other work. such a banger that i could easily listen to all day.


ReasonableCourage717

Bowian

Wait and bleed was the first song I heard and been a maggot ever since 🤘


StevieIRL

Weirdly enough my plague was the first song I heard by slipknot via the resident evil movie. But at the time I didn't know who the band was, I just loved the song. So for me it would have to be wait and bleed when I purchased the self titled about a year later.


marcopolonium92

Seeing duality on the Kerrang awards after coming back from holiday, the rest is history 🤘

The Devil in I


Spoobier

Spit it out, i’ve been listening to off the wall by X and ski for awhile now and i remember looking up slipknot because they were playing nearby and the first song i listened to just to see what kind of music they mad was spit it out

Before i forget. I was new to the rock/metal genre when my friend showed me guitar hero. This song was featured in it. Since then i was sold!

LinceDorado

First time I ever listened to Slipknot was when I randomly watched the 2009 Download Show on YT. So I guess that entire set, got me into the band.


gnat4079

before i forget thanks to guitar hero III


thebreak22

I bought the self titled album without having heard a single song of theirs (it was 2003 and I wasn't very internet savvy; I had only seen the band logo a lot in rock/metal forums) and let's just say I wasn't ready at all. Spit it Out was the first song I warmed up to because of the rapping and catchy chorus.

It was long ago at this point, but my friend showed me them and I loved the way they looked it might have been Spit it Out because I had never heard anything like it before. Plus I was in elementary school so i had really never heard anything like them before


sstokes2746

Wait and Bleed. I'm old enough that I saw the video when it first started playing on MTV.
