M E T A L A L B U M O F T H E Y E A R ? Incredible album man... Like phenomenal even. It's the first & only album I've bought in 2019... @rapsody may very well be next (more on that later) With that said, I've had a very challenging 'love affair' with @slipknot. "All Hope Is Gone" was first album I ever bought from them. After that? "Vol. 3...The Subliminal Verses" And that was about it. Even though this band is one of the most artistically and technically proficient metal bands ever, one that has consistently had one the greatest drummers and one of the greatest frontmen in rock history, albums like their self titled debut, ".5: The Gray Chapter" and arguably their best album "Iowa" were just way too dark & flirted way too much with a satanic vibe (whether it was for real or for shock value) for me to listen to and enjoy on a regular basis with a clear conscience However, this album entitled: #WeAreNotYourKind is much more balanced out, much more nuanced and a much more artistic and daring approach while retaining their signature sound, and it features some their best songs and heaviest records to date.... And I totally love it With songs like #BirthOfTheCruel, #SolwayFirth, #NotLongForThisWorld, #NeroForte and #CriticalDarling to name very few, this album shows why @coreytaylor is a vocal and songwriting genius, why @jayweinberg is an 'out of this world' drummer and why this band overall just dropped one of the best albums of 2019 and it became a No. 1 Billboard Top 200 album Cheers to another album that's got me looking for a recording studio ASAP... #LongLiveTheKnot Written by Jason Andre Roberts aka CONQUEST #Slipknot #WANYK #BestMusicOf2019 #BestAlbumsOf2019 #Metal #HeavyMetal #CONQUEST #CONQUEST44 #AlbumReviews #MetalAlbumOfTheYear #Rock #CoreyTaylor #EngagingTheCulture #ImOnThatNextNEXT #No1Album https://www.instagram.com/p/B1zQoCxgySp/?igshid=c0gjidt2lvm1
