Probably one of their best. Underrated and probably the heaviest atmosphere of any album to get as high on the billboard charts as it did.

The Last track is basically a Swans track and listening to it on repeat as a teenager probably made the leap to listening to them a lot easier.
S/T is better, but Iowa was probably a better live era: youtube.com/watch?v=80W10DsHCWM

I was thinking about listening to their early albums again to see if they really suck or they were good but I judged they wrong.

I used like this track

It's pretty good aside from the cringy lyrics.

I wont find a heavier record. Ever. And this is why Slipknot is famous.
Because this not only pure violence, this is real, They hated each other in this period. REALLY. There is no acting here. Corey doesn't even remember a lot of the recording process because he was drinking 2-3 Jack Daniels bottles per day.
This is also sad. This is just pure extreme emotions. There is a lot of sadness behind the violence. Check 16:55 or 49:40 (all the end of metabolic is SAD actually.
You won't find a heavier record for a lot of reason. 1) noone can beat Corey's scream. I'm not a teenager fan I'm 31. There is a lot of things I don't like with this guy but musically he is the best vocalist ever in my opinion.
2) the sound/production and the combo doubles guitars + bass is insane.
3) There are 3 drummers.
4) The DJ and Samples to add the little something more.

I'm listening to metal for 20 years. Nothing has NEVER came close to this.

Too bad for everything else after this album :/

man, this track is better than I remembered

good album
great song

well you know thats just like your opinion man

It is basically Orchid covering Sepultura's Roots. Still enjoyable tho.

>What do you thing

There's such a thing as going overboard with heaviness, which I think is what he's talking about, and also being too clean. Iowa works because it's not afraid to be something other than metal.

EASILY their best. They toned down the dj wankery on this one, using it only to convey atmosphere and on the right moments. The production and mixing is also damn great, the bass is at times really out there. It's got groovy ass riffs, catchy hooks and a damn heavy atmosphere. Honestly, the only thing bringing it down is the edgy lyrics, although this is probably their only album where the excessive edgyness is justified.

Agree with , it's probably the heaviest album ever to chart on the billboards. It also probably got a lot of people on death metal, which is always nice.

If Death Grips made People = Shit it would be praised here.

0:24 still gets me pumped up, even now. The song felt like a roller coaster in the purest sense when I first heard it.

This "if popular artist made shitty song it would be considered good" meme has never been fucking funny

That combination sounds amazing desu

IM STILL TREADING

I sounds just like that album. And it is actually pretty good.

Goes on way too long and every song is exactly the same.

it's not a meme you dipshit

Other than his complete inability to write lyrics (even though I admit I like Snuff) he is/was such a good vocalist. Vocally his best album.
