Aug 10, 2019One of their most cohesive, experimental, dynamic, and yet instantly recognizable works. Brilliant.
-
Nov 10, 2019This album is a culmination of what makes Slipknot an iconic metal band. After many, many listens I conclude it is a genuine masterpiece. There are so many incredibly songs that remind me of why I fell in love with Slipknot to begin with while still bringing something entirely new to the table.
-
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!
-
Dec 18, 2019This album is truly brilliant, its hard to stand out in what has been a fantastic year for metal. This album I gave a score of 10 and still struggled to put it in my Top 5 albums of 2019. You just knew as soon as Unsainted was released that this album was going to be a fantastic album and it was. The usual mixture of fantastic ballads and brutal vocals continues to impress.
-
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, 2019This is Slipknot at their absolute peak in every facet. It has all the elements that made their early work so great and so much more. This album deep and you will undoubtedly pick up something new with every listen. Like any masterful piece of art it's composition can't be summed up into words.
-
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, 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 12, 2019A Slipknot Record that is so new and fresh after all this years, it takes a lot of brave to leave the save corridor and release a record like this. Every Song brings new ways and more dynamic. For all the haters, its no talent to ram every note with factor 1000, dynamic in tempo, heavyness and this great sound is just a masterpiece. A new Iowa next to the Codename Orange Release last year.

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, 2019Очень интересный альбом, этот коллектив один из немногих, кто старается экспериментировать с музыкой при этом не теряет свою харизму со времен одноименника. Порадовало большое количество чистого вокала от Кори.

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 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.
-
Sep 6, 2019One of the best Slipknot albums in my opinion. Somehow the songs are both aggressive yet melodic at the same time. I definitely recommend this to any metal fan.
-
Aug 10, 2019
-
Dec 24, 2019Raw,brutal and at the same time beautiful and carefully crafted.This is Slipknot at their prime.
-
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, 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, 2019
-
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, 2019Dark, heavy and aggressive! Just what you want in a Slipknot album. This will entertain casual listeners too!
-
Aug 10, 2019Mix the creepiness of the Self-Titled, the heaviness of Iowa, the experimentation of Vol.3, the catchy chorus of All Hope Is Gone and the atmosphere of The Grey Chapter and you get We Are Not Your Kind. Slipknot at it's best.
-
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, 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, 2019No words needed. Masterpiece
Great synergy of all previous album's styles.
100% recommended -
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, 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, 2019The best slipknot album is now here the most creative and overall best album they have done easily.
-
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, 2019I have never listened to any album where i genuinely enjoyed every song this album in my eyes is perfect
-
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 work since Iowa. A combination of Iowa and the best parts of Vol. 3, with plenty of experimentation.
-
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, 2019
-
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, 2019
-
Aug 9, 2019Possibly one of their best. Relentless drum bashing metal brilliance from start to finish
-
Aug 9, 2019So good. Corey's voice is back in form. Saw him live a week ago in Knotfest. I'll Never forget that night!
-
Aug 9, 2019Absolutely amazing album. It’s up there with Iowa and ST in my opinion. 100% must buy for anyone that calls themself a maggot.
-
Aug 9, 2019
-
Aug 10, 2019It’s like what they wanted Vol. 3 to be; Experimental and heavy but... matured. It’s their best album because it does everything very well. It’s not singularly heavy or singularly melodic, it mixes both perfectly.
-
Aug 10, 2019Corey is god, альбом очень понравился, все песни кроме deth because deth, теаепь мой 1 из любимых
-
Aug 10, 2019**** AWESOME album. corey taylor's voice is still impressive. the most badass songs: orphan, a liar's funeral, solway firth, unsainted, not long for this world, nero forte
-
Aug 10, 201910/10 album. Mixture of Iowa and Vol 3. A must listen to all rock fans around the world. This album will kick your f*cking ass.

Aug 14, 2019One of the best albums so far heavy, dark, and very well produced im a fan of slipknot since they first album and this is a masterpiece every fan of slipknot should be proud of them. Congratz and enjoy the music life its to short. PEACE
-
Aug 14, 2019A brilliant album. A perfect amalgamation of everything slipknot have done over the years. Their experience and emotions all coming together in an album that is fitting for the current climate of the world. I have been a fan since 1999, I have struggled with some of their experimental work and stayed the course. I’m glad I have because this is rapidly becoming my favourite album of Slipknots.

this masterpiece is an amazing combination of experience, emotion and hard work
nice job slipknot m/ -
Sep 15, 2019This album is amazing, it's like you are in a movie with the history of Slipknot, in some moments your fell like you is listening a bit of Iowa and Self-titled, but att the same time you fill some Recent Slipknot vibes.
-
Sep 17, 2019Amazing Masterpiece!!! My Favorite album after Self-Titled! In podcast on Spotify, Clown said everything i wanted to. I can just say go and buy it!

Aug 21, 2020This album encompass all the best bits from Slipknots' earlier work. It gots the chaos and rawness of ST and Iowa, the emotion of Vol 3 and All Hope is Gone and the musical technicality of vol 5. Every song stands out and it will be difficult for Slipknot to release a better album than this one.

Sep 14, 2019A beautiful revival of the Iowa era in a new and experimental way. Slipknot proves to be timeless once again.
-
Aug 17, 2019Such an epic album. Their best one. I only want a fan of the interludes so I gave it a 9 instead of 10. Best album I’ve heard in a few years actually and I have it on repeat:)
-
Aug 9, 2019
-
Aug 12, 2019Better than vol 3 and .5! A great listen, slipknot of old and slipknot of new all in one. Corey's vocals get better and better.
-
Sep 11, 2019This album is great. Better than Iowa and Self-Titled imo. The diversity between the songs is something you can't beat.
-
Aug 9, 2019While I felt that .5 was a rare misstep by Slipknot, they are now back in full force, full swing, full angst, sounding as great as ever. We Are Not Your Kind is a glorious kick in the teeth that manages to both look backwards at their back catalogue and look forward to new and better things.
-
Aug 9, 2019Better than the gray chapter, but not as good as all hope is gone .Critical darling, fantastic track!
-
Aug 9, 2019HELL YEAH HELL YEAH HEEEEEEEEEEEEELLLLLLLL YEEEEEEEEEEEAHHHHHHHH
Heavy, crazy, best Slipknot record so far. HELL YEAH -
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, 2019Great album. August will be a great month for music.

Aug 11, 2019This is Slipknot's strongest album in quite some time. I personally didn't enjoy The Gray Chapter. This album perfectly fits between Self-Titled and Vol3 with slight hints of IOWA.
Most of the songs are perfect! And songs like Spiders are very catchy. Might give a few Stone sour hints. -
Aug 12, 2019Absolutely brilliant! Best since Vol 3, or even Iowa. Massive, strong, full of energy.
-
Aug 13, 2019Solid album! While a return to roots of sorts, it's also completely new and different than any other slipknot album. Love the brutality of Solway Firth.
-
Aug 13, 2019Simply amazing. It has IOWA moments but it;s not just a IOWA 2.0. From a total of 11 songs (14 but we excluded the 3 filler songs) 9 are very very good and i'd actively listen to, the other 2 are the pure clean vocal emotion songs - great but won't listen very often.
-
Aug 20, 2019From start to finish this album is a solid listen with only a couple of tracks (Spiders, mostly) that seem to break the flow of pure adrenaline. I've listened to this album several times through and I am looking forward to my next listen.
-
Aug 25, 2019Between renew and old style. A good Slipknot album! Need some full listening to appreciate it but after that, just listen it again and again.

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.
