Aug 9, 2019Their greatest album since Vol. 3
Everything on this album is better than what we saw on they Gray Chapter -
Aug 9, 2019Without a doubt Slipknot's best album and in my opinion, about as perfect as an album can reasonably get. Every single track is worth multiple listens, and that's more than I can say for most records in the sea of mediocrity that is the modern metal scene.
-
Aug 9, 2019This is their most brutal album in sometime but I think what bothers me is that the songs do not take their own identity like they do on Subliminal Versus, they mesh together too much, I could listen to this album 5 times and not remember what songs I liked, it had some moments but I am not super impressed
-
Aug 9, 2019This album is a testament to having a vision and seeing that vision through. It contains the “Alice in Chains” influences while meeting the Pink Floyd’s “The Wall” experimentation and conceptual writing. This is a legacy-writing piece of art.
-
Aug 9, 2019Possibly one of their best. Relentless drum bashing metal brilliance from start to finish

Aug 9, 2019I lovr this album. This is grown, artistic Slipknot, with elements from earlier albums all the way to the reality of the band at present, as well as future experimental leanings. This is art, period!

Aug 9, 2019An amazing album to cater to the old fans while bringing in new ones. Filled with so much emotion and energy you'll be head banging all the way through.
-
Aug 9, 2019Amazing album, it’s experimental like .3 . Definitely one of there best albums in years, Corey’s vocals are amazing it’s overall an amazing album.

Aug 9, 2019Without a doubt, Slipknot's best work since Iowa. A combination of Iowa and the best parts of Vol. 3, with plenty of experimentation.
-
Aug 9, 2019This album is just awsome. Great and heavy riffs, catchy chorus, samples like vol 3 , just great . For me are the best songs Solway Firth , Unsainted , Red Flag and Liar Funeral.

Aug 9, 2019Absolutely breathtaking. This band has fully delivered on every level. A feat of the best album in their discography is something I never thought would happen. Each song is unique in its own way. The atmosphere of "Slipknot" is fully earned here. If they stopped here, I would be content.
-
Aug 9, 2019We Are Not Your Kind is simply the greatest sensory experience of Slipknot and Nu Metal.

Aug 9, 2019Slipknot aways can do heavy metal: Solway Firth, Birth of the Cruel and Nero Forte show this. but this time they bring us with everything we want and a lot of thing that we dont know we want. Just amazing.

Aug 9, 2019Slipknot made a solid return with elements of every of the past albums.
This is sincerely one of their best albums and maybe one of the best albums of the year! -

Aug 9, 2019HELL YEAH HELL YEAH HEEEEEEEEEEEEELLLLLLLL YEEEEEEEEEEEAHHHHHHHH
Heavy, crazy, best Slipknot record so far. HELL YEAH -
Aug 9, 2019Honestly, i am dissapointed, the drums does not have tha same kind of integrity and attack just the same "heavy" beat all the time with little time for fast fills, guitars are getting more repetitive and boring, the sheer hype of their music seems to be gone for me with this album im sorry but i cannot recommend this.
-
Aug 9, 2019I think this is the point at which the band start to decline. The same detuned riffs and Corey's screams are the lowest quality in years. Theres no evil menace any more and its verging on emo hipsterism. Unsainted is great but overall it seems like the prelude to breakup. So phoned in and by the numbers you wonder where their balls went.
-
Aug 9, 2019Esse álbum tá incrível cara, Slipknot voltou com tudo com músicas que realmente ficam na cabeça! Pra mim as melhores são Nero Forte, UNSAINTED, Critical Darling, orphan e Solway Firth. Daria nota 1000 se pudesse

Aug 9, 2019Better than the gray chapter, but not as good as all hope is gone .Critical darling, fantastic track!
-
Aug 9, 2019This album is pure rage against Corey's depression with a Vol.3/Iowa/Gray Chapter style with the best melodic parts I've heard in Slipknot ever. Slipknot has been so ambitious with this album and I think is their best record since Vol.3. 10/10

Aug 9, 2019No words needed. Masterpiece
Great synergy of all previous album's styles.
100% recommended -
Aug 9, 2019I heard the Album now the 5th time and with every hearing session i find another piece of hidden art in this new and mostly daring but also winning album of slipknot. Its an album which is fresh and brave and even keep the great spirit of the band. Some also tracks remind me of IOWA times. Wouldnt be surprised if this will be one of the best Slipknot LP's. Great work. Great Art.
-
Aug 9, 2019Amazing. The only word to describe it. It is a breath of fresh air for SlipKnot in the modern era of Slipknot and makes you want more (even though there are 14 songs).
-
Aug 9, 2019I rate this album with 1. Because in this sh*t you can find only 1.5 good tracks.
All other sh*t you can turn on on the graduation school ball for slow dance... -
Aug 9, 2019I really enjoy this album but Iowa and Slipknot are better albums for me. Solid 8/10 for me.
-
Aug 9, 2019Can feel the evolution in both Slipknot as a band and Corey’s singing. It’s heavy, but stays authentic. Some parts are unpredictible, which is real fun to listen for the first time. I can’t say it’s a copy of any other previous albums, it’s innovative, modern, unique, and strongly stands on his own. Nero Forte is an instant favorite.
-
Aug 9, 2019We Are Not Your Kind is nothing short of a masterpiece. It’s Slipknot ambitiously refining their sound while firing on all cylinders. Very impressive.
-
Aug 9, 2019It's everything I wanted and more. Surprisingly, the least Slipknot song on the album, Spiders, is in the top 5 for me off the album.
-
Aug 9, 2019I'm not some Slipknot mega-fan. I enjoy a handful of their tracks but usually don't venture beyond what immediately jumps out to me, so if I can appreciate this album enough to get into it way more than I have with any previous Slipknot album I can only imagine how excellent it must be for legit fans. Definitely worth a spin, and perhaps many more spins in the future.
-
Aug 9, 2019I have been a huge Slipknot fan from the beginning, and it pains me greatly to have to say this but this entire album is garbage. Not once did I feel like I was listening to a slipknot album. Fact is, the band lost its way after Paul.
-
Aug 9, 2019Dark, heavy and aggressive! Just what you want in a Slipknot album. This will entertain casual listeners too!
-
Aug 9, 2019Nero Forte is the best song I've heard in years! The drums are absolutely savage! This entire album is brutal but so melodic!
-
Aug 9, 2019You want Iowa, the self titled and Vol.3 combined in one brutally melodic fashion then this is your album. Creepy samples, eerie intros, beautifully crafted ballads and rip roaring choruses. Definitely worth a shot for the Grammys
-
Aug 9, 2019**** amazing. Great album with great songs (Nero Forte is my favorite), in the second half it’s Full of experimentation.
-
Aug 9, 2019With some very solid tracks and some that feel a bit too "experimental", "We are not your kind" is a good addition to slipknot's discography. Even if it is a bit of a come down from ".5 the grey chapter".

Classic Rock MagazineAug 20, 2019Wonderfully cohesive hour of vein-popping indignation. [Sep 2019, p.82]
-
Aug 15, 2019Slipknot make an unexpected impact with their newly-discovered tenderness, but it’s those instantly-recognisable throat-shredding roars that really shine.
-
Aug 14, 2019For better or for worse, Kind is a Slipknot record, one that has more to offer than expected and is still sometimes frustratingly short-sighted.
