Editorial Review:
Special Edition includes bonus tracks and a DVD featuring the making of All Hope Is Gone. After over 5 million albums sold in the US, Slipknot returns with their most powerful
statement yet - All Hope Is Gone. Filled with the fury people have come to expect from
Slipknot as well as some extraordinary surprises, this album is the culmination of the
band' s 9 unique members, three platinum albums and their 10 year journey at the top
of the Hard Rock genre. Kicked off by the powerful crescendo that is Execute and
Gematria (The Killing Name) and ending with the blistering track All Hope Is Gone
- the album is a cohesive statement about the world today and truly cements the
band as one of Rock' s heavyweights. The lead single Psychosocial will propel the new
album to match and exceed the success of the last album, Vol 3: Subliminal Verses
which produced numerous Top 20 songs at Rock radio including a Top 5 track at Active and
Modern Rock radio.
All Hope Is Gone (Special Edition CD/DVD) Reviews:
All Hope is Gone is definitely not the case! 
2008-10-06 - Being a huge Corey Taylor fan, my opinion is semi bias. One thing that I can promise you is, this album (All Hope is Gone) is nothing like their self titled album, Iowa, or Vol 3 The Subliminal Verses. Creating their fourth album with different perspective, different recording style, and brand new lyrics... has turned into a matured Slipknot masterpiece.
These nine guys have different personalities, different recording tactics and styles. Each single member of Slipknot brings different artistic ideas to the table and to this record. One thing for sure, these guys know how to rock and can pull off any type of project that is given to them!
All Hope is Gone is by far their best album yet! Slipknot shows you that they are a band who will never break up and better yet.... give us Maggots security that there is indeed more to Slipknot that we have not yet seen!
All Hope is Gone not only gives us hope for future projects by Slipknot, but All Hope is Gone is a remarkable and refreshing album!
Slipknot is more than just noise ! 
2008-10-05 - This cd kicks butt, much better than the previous cd version 3.0, I perfer their heavy stuff over the slow songs on this cd, as of all the other cds too.
I can't wait to see them perform some of these songs live.
slipknot sucks 
2008-10-04 - this band sucks dont buy any of slipknots albums that also goes for distrubed and coldplay do not spend any money on these people
they would have done better tough.......stone sour collaborates with slipknot 
2008-10-04 - It is a heavy album and only the song "all hope is gone" is the one i can call brutal and maybe one of the first ones too.I was a bit dissapointed cause the band said the album was gonna be really heavy and the truth is,it's not heavy as f**k like they said it would be,heavy but not like you expect.The melodic singing is not like the old slipknot is stone sour singing and the slow song sucks unlike the other albums but it's okay.If you call yourself a maggot(i'm not,just like them)then get this album.The last song is kinda technical death metal which is my favorite one but in my opinion iowa is still the heaviest album slipknot have done and not to mention corey doesn't give those big screams he used to i mean his voice sounds like in iowa but doesn't scream like in the old songs like,eyeless,sic,people=sh**,the heretic anthem,he just lost it but what's best for mainstream crap huh?Still good album and recommend it and they are completeley done with the nu metal crap for good.
Still worth the money! 
2008-10-04 - A little soft for me but not horrible..... my expectations were too high. I totaly forgive them for a few of the songs because they make up for it in concert! I've been to many concerts (back to the 80's) and they continue to put on one of the best shows I've seen!
