JoelG.Sep 29, 2008Fast but no-key solos, forgettable songs... These guys are supposed to be more than just another metal band but this cd makes me question.

RyanBJul 25, 2009Slipknot definitely have some good songs on this album, but in my opinion, Vol. 3 was more intricate and more interesting. The soft tracks on the album sound like they belong with Stone Sour, while the heavier songs are no departure from Slipknot, which, while good in some ways, leaves a lot to be desired.

billDNov 28, 2008Its almost okay as a cd. this and vol 3 are the poser cds of this band and they suck kinda. the songs were taken mainstream by guitar hero and straight up posers.

FilipL.Oct 23, 2008All we already knew that new album would't be so energetic like selftitled and iowa.. simply they've been into mainstream many years from now, so they act like that. sad but true.

TomPSep 28, 2008LMFAO! Orelha's comment was the funniest review I've seen in awhile. And props to Joe. That just made my day. I haven't even listened to this album so...A review?...well, it's Slipknot, what's left to expect?

Aug 18, 2010This album is good, but not one of their best. Unlike their other albums, when you like all of the songs except one.. In this album you will probably like 3 or 4 songs. In other words, this album is good....but not great.

Feb 12, 2011Rather uninspired when compared to their early work. Although decent on its own, this album will find its greatest demise in being compared to its predecessors.

Feb 18, 2014Disappointing. Conventional. Friendly melodies. Almost nothing original. It was the best billboard album, but the worst artistic one. It was released for good sells. I wouldn't recommend listening to that juvenile album.

Jul 14, 2019This is the only album in the band's catalog that I honestly just don't enjoy that much. There are too many cleanly sung choruses this time around, to the point where they sort of begin to blend together and I struggle to remember which song is which. That being said however, songs like 'Sulfur', 'Gehenna' and 'Snuff' are among the best moments on this album.

Sep 15, 2019This album is not that bad, songs like Psychosocial, Sulfur & Snuff are exemples of the few realy good songs in this album, but the most of the songs in this album are like OK.

All Hope Is Gone as a whole winds up being as bleak and unforgiving as its title.

The set is at once Slipknot's most ambitious and accessible outing to date, with a broad palette of sounds and textures that shift faster than Michael Phelps off the starting block.

Happily, Slipknot can pull in these directions and still maintain a new standard of bone-crunching intensity . There are louder metal bands in the world, for sure, but the Iowan nine-piece continue to make the most noise.
