The legendary Iowa metal band plans to release a 10th Anniversary Edition of their 2001 breakthrough album, Iowa, on November 1st. 
"For the past year, we've been hearing non-stop about how the Knot needs to come to South America. Literally on a daily basis. For the past month, these same maggots have been hitting us up counting down to Saturday's show on a daily basis. When art can equal that kind of desire, you have God. We can't wait to throw down with you. Get ready. Hail the maggots. Hail the Knot." 
-Crahan said
Slipknot fans can also get excited about Revolver Magazine's latest release called "The Book of Slipknot." The release is to coincide with their landmark re-release of Iowa. The special issue tells the story behind the masked maniacs in their own words. It features exclusive interviews, never-before-seen-photos, and appearances by other metal legends like Lamb of God, Anthrax, Asking Alexandria, and many more!

Slipknot - (sic)nesses Live at Download Review

The greatest metal band of the 21st century is at it once again with their latest concert DVD release (sic)nesses Live at Download. Available since late September, this work of art is enthralling, brilliant and surreal. Percussionist Shawn “Clown” Crahan exemplifies the DVD in one simple line; “It’s an extreme gift to be able to give the world your pain.”

The multifaceted compilation starts with a live recording of the bands 2009 performance at the hallowed grounds of Donington Park. The band drew largely from their hardcore roots, playing tracks such as “Eyeless,” “Surfacing” and “Wait and Bleed.” If you’ve never had the honor of experiencing the chaos that is a Slipknot concert, feast your eyes on the tens of thousands who enjoyed the ass kicking the nine handed them on this momentus day.

Easily the most artistic and impeccably revealing part of (sic)nesses  is the look that Clown gives fans in what is called Audible Visions of: (sic)nesses, a feature film directed by Clown himself. It delves the viewer behind the scenes during the bands tour to promote All Hope is Gone. The footage gives you a look into the soul of the beast that is Slipknot.
