Editorial Review:
Like many other pivotal bands the primary emotion behind the music of Slipknot is anger. The nine man masked outfit from Des Moines, Iowa, have been labelled "nu-metal", a term first placed on LA emo-rockers, Korn. The author aims to explain why he considers them nothing less than a phenomenon.
Slipknot: Unmasked (Parental Advisory: Explicit Lyrics) Reviews:
Surprisingly Interesting 
2003-11-07 - Not being much of a Slipknot fan, I wasn't expecting much from this book. Fortunately I was pleasantly surprised. It's very in-depth in regards to how this band came to be & chronicles its success quite well. It provides a look into the their personal lives as well as their public persona. A sprinkling of the McIver trademark humor is always a good thing. Even though I don't much care for the band this is indeed a good read. I'm to the point now where I look forward to reading Joels books, no matter the subject.
good but.. 
2003-07-21 - this book was great, but..
it didnt show their faces enough if it did at all.
if you want a movie that shows their faces through the whole movie (just about).. i know the perfect movie.
The Knot Gone Wild.
check that movie out.
but anyway..
the book was great. it kept me interested throughout the whole book. from the biginning of the bands' stardom to present day.
if you're a Slipknot fan, you should definalty get this book.
