All Hope Is Gone is the fourth studio album by American heavy metal band Slipknot. Released on August 20, 2008 by Roadrunner Records, the album was published in two versions: the standard album in a Compact Disc case and a special edition packaged in a six-fold digipak containing three bonus tracks, a 40 page booklet, and a bonus DVD with a documentary of the album's recording. This is the last album to feature original bass player Paul Gray due to his death on May 24th, 2010.

Preparation for the album began in 2007, while recording started in February 2008 in the band's home state of Iowa. All Hope Is Gone is Slipknot's first studio album since 2004's Vol. 3: (The Subliminal Verses). Before the album's launch, Slipknot released a series of promotional images and audio samples from the album through various websites. All Hope Is Gone is considered the band's most eclectic-sounding album, incorporating elements from their previous three. All Hope Is Gone includes their "brutal" edge, reminiscent of songs such as "(sic)" from their debut self-titled album, slow burning, "trippy" elements such as that of "Skin Ticket" from their second album Iowa, and acoustics and guitar solos, which were first introduced on Vol. 3: (The Subliminal Verses). Lyrically, All Hope Is Gone centers on themes such as anger, disaffection, obsession, and the music industry. The album name also features a more prominent focus on politics than their previous albums. Slipknot promoted All Hope Is Gone on a world tour and at the Mayhem Festival. Generally well received by critics, the album reached the top position on nine record charts worldwide, including the Billboard 200—the first Slipknot album to do so. The album has been certified Gold by the RIAA on the 9th December, 2009 for shipments in excess of 500,000 albums.[8] The week ending 14th April, 2010, All Hope Is Gone has sold a total of 924,907 copies in the United States.[9]

Recording

Preparation for All Hope Is Gone began in 2007. Drummer Joey Jordison explained, "I've told them to demo whatever they can so we've got as much material to choose from as possible."[10] In February 2008,[11] Slipknot entered the Sound Farm Studio in Jamaica, Iowa with producer Dave Fortman.[12] All Hope Is Gone is the band's first album written and recorded in their home state of Iowa. Bassist Paul Gray explained that the band decided to record in Iowa because there were too many distractions in Los Angeles, where production of their previous albums had taken place.[13] The band also stated that being close to home was good for their mindset; vocalist Corey Taylor drove home every night to see his son.[14] Unlike Slipknot's previous releases, the album's writing process involved all nine band members, who wrote over 30 songs. Jordison commented, "I have to say that the band is at its peak; everyone—I mean everyone—is now completely involved in the writing process, and it's a beautiful thing."[12] Taylor felt the writing process had some problems, but also noted that the creation of every Slipknot album has had conflict and that the band has come to embrace it after realizing that the conflict helps to bring out their creativity.[15] Taylor and guitarist Jim Root paired up with Sid Wilson, performing on keyboards, and percussionist Shawn Crahan to work on "oblique, arty pieces".[12] Taylor also experimented with tracking in an old well, stating, "There was this natural reverb to it that was just intense."[12] According to Crahan none of the experimental tracks made it onto the album. However, one of them, "Til We Die", appears as a bonus track on the album's special edition.[16] The track "Sulfur" was the first combined effort of Jordison and Root, who wrote the song in one evening.[17]

Feeling discontent over the record's production process, Root said, "it felt a little bit rushed. And it felt like we were trying to do things just to appease a schedule, which I didn't really like."[18] Root was particularly disappointed with the record's producer, Dave Fortman, and said, "Dave Fortman really helped me appreciate Rick Rubin as a producer. [Fortman] wasn't able to get nine people together on the same page and, to me, that's the most important thing in making a Slipknot record."[18] Conversely, Jordison said, "It's finally the record that I've wanted Slipknot to sound like."[19] He went on to compliment Fortman's ear for tone, and considered All Hope Is Gone to be the band's best album.[19] All Hope Is Gone was mixed by Colin Richardson in the United Kingdom.[20]

Promotion

Rumors that Slipknot would be recording and touring All Hope Is Gone without their trademark masks circulated after band members appeared unmasked during performances with various side-projects. However, Shawn Crahan dismissed these rumors in an interview on The Sauce.[21] Bassist Paul Gray elaborated that the band would return with a new overall image, "It'll still be Slipknot," he stated, "but we're gonna upgrade, step things up a little."[22] Beginning April 1, 2008, Slipknot's website displayed ten teasers to promote All Hope Is Gone.[23] The first nine displayed the band in their purgatory masks, however, the final teaser featured a darkened photograph of the band with their new masks.[24] Slipknot premiered their new masks on July 1, 2008 on Spinner.com; eight million people visited the website to view the masks on the first day.[25]

On June 15, 2008, a 30-second sample and cover art from the album's title track, "All Hope Is Gone", were made available on Amazon.com.[26] The song began airplay the same day and on June 20, 2008, Roadrunner Records offered the track as a free download on their website. "All Hope Is Gone" was later released as a digital single. The second single from the album, "Psychosocial", began airplay on June 26, 2008 and was released as a digital single on July 7, 2008.[27] Following the album's launch, "Dead Memories" was released as a digital single on December 1, 2008, along with an accompanying music video.[28] The music video for "Sulfur", the album's fourth single, premiered on April 18, 2009,[29] and the single is scheduled for release on June 15, 2009.[30] From August 17 through 19, 2008, Kerrang! magazine held six listening events across the United Kingdom which included a preview of the documentary supplied with the album's special edition, and free merchandise.[31] On April 17, 2009, Roadrunner Records announced that the album would be released on vinyl on April 19, 2009, coinciding with Record Store Day.[32]

The album's cover art and track listing were released on July 8, 2008.[33] Slipknot began its All Hope Is Gone World Tour the following day—the tour was their first since 2005. The band initially toured with the Mayhem Festival across the United States, through August 16, 2008. Afterward, Slipknot was scheduled to appear at the Reading and Leeds Festivals in England, the Two Days a Week Festival in Austria, and the Area4 Festival in Germany.[34] However, the European tour dates were canceled due to Jordison breaking his ankle.[35][36] Slipknot performed at the Rock on the Range Festival on May 16 and 17, 2009 then headlined the Download Festival in England during the summer.[37]

Style and themes

Prior to the album's release, Slipknot's members displayed interest in making All Hope Is Gone their heaviest album, which Joey Jordison affirmed saying, "It's going to be heavier than Vol. 3: (The Subliminal Verses), but just as weird and as experimental."[10] Corey Taylor reiterated this, describing All Hope Is Gone as a "very dark" combination of the band's two previous studio albums, Iowa and Vol. 3: (The Subliminal Verses).[38] In All Hope Is Gone, Slipknot expands on their use of traditional song structures, acoustics, and solos that they introduced on their previous album Vol. 3: (The Subliminal Verses). The track "Snuff" is led by acoustic guitars and has been dubbed as Slipknot's attempt at a "power ballad", though it remains "dark and ominous".[39] In an interview with Artistdirect, Shawn Crahan stated, "Everyone can feel the pain that's in there. It's not forced upon you. You have it in there innately."[17] Slipknot also retained a metal edge reminiscent of their earlier work. Stephen Erlewine of Allmusic wrote "Gematria (The Killing Name)" goes from "a cluster of cacophony" to "an onslaught of densely dark intricate riffs".[2] Crahan compared it to the song "(sic)" from their debut album, explaining, "The technique and the style are very reminiscent of the old, brutal shit that we've done."[17] Jim Kaz of IGN stated that the "swaggering, cock-rock groove and an anthemic chorus" of "Psychosocial" gives Slipknot the potential to reach out to new fans "without sacrificing a lick of intensity".[7] Crahan stated he "loves" his parts of "Psychosocial", in which the band incorporates snare drums, reminiscent of "Before I Forget".[17] He also cited "This Cold Black" as one of his favorite songs, saying that it has a "driving tempo and a lot of attitude".[17] The track "Gehenna" incorporates elements of Slipknot's slower, more cerebral edge reminiscent of "Prosthetics" and "Purity" from their debut album, and "Skin Ticket" from Iowa. Crahan called it a "trippy song", explaining, "It's just somewhere we go."[17]

Corey Taylor explained that the phrase "All Hope Is Gone" is aimed at the fans' expectations of the band, further elaborating, "Just when you thought you had us figured out, give up all hope because you're never, ever going to."[40][41] Throughout the album, Taylor incorporates a focus on politics in his lyrics, compared to Slipknot's previous albums. The opening track, ".execute.", features Taylor's response to former United States Vice President Spiro Agnew’s speech targeted at Vietnam War protesters,[39] and the second track "Gematria (The Killing Name)" follows in the same vein. During an interview with Kerrang!, Taylor discussed the song's lyrical content, explaining, "There are a lot of people who are disguising politics as religion and dictating taste and turning it into policy. And that hurts me."[40] Reviewing for IGN, Jim Kaz said that lyrically, "Gematria (The Killing Name)" gives the listener a "heaping dose of Corey Taylor's caustic bravado".[7] On the track "Wherein Lies Continue", Taylor offers a "dressing down of the world as we know it," explaining, "It kinda goes up against any civilization that takes themselves way too seriously and where the 'leaders' are so pretentious that they think they are deemed to speak for the people."[40] He also proclaimed, "It wouldn't be a Slipknot album if I didn't rag on the recording industry."[40] On "Butcher's Hook", Taylor specifically targets "all those little emo boys", commenting, "People give us shit for wearing outfits, but all of those guys look exactly the same."[40]

Reception

All Hope Is Gone was generally well received by critics. Several music critics anticipated the album immediately after the release of Vol. 3: (The Subliminal Verses). In its review of Vol. 3, Allmusic stated, "There's a sense that whatever Slipknot do next might be their ultimate broadcast to the faithful."[42] Copies of All Hope Is Gone intended for reviewers were pressed under the false name "Rusty Cage" to reduce the risk of the album leaking onto the internet.[43] Stephen Erlewine wrote in his review for Allmusic that the early "cluster of cacophony" of "Gematria" is "so effective [...] that when things do get a little softer a little later on, the album threatens to collapse like a soufflé".[2] Criticizing the album, Erlewine wrote, "One more power ballad like ["Snuff"] would be enough to derail the album." [2] He gave the album a rating of four out of five stars.[2] Regarding the album's creation process, Darren Sadler of Rock Sound wrote, "[Slipknot] raised their collective middle fingers, and created an album that stands out head and shoulders above everything else that will be released this year."[39] He compared the album's sound to those of other bands such as Stone Sour, Morbid Angel, and Meshuggah, and he gave the album a score of 9 out of 10.[39] Ryan Ogle of Blabbermouth.net gave All Hope Is Gone 7.5 out of 10 stars. Ogle stated that the fans' views of the "diversity" of the album would be Slipknot's "saving grace, or their misfortune", concluding, "While it may not be as jaw-dropping or revolutionary as some might have hoped, it's by no means a bad release."[44] Reviewing for Blender, writer Darren Ratner observed a different theme in the lyrics when compared to previous Slipknot albums, noting that the band is able to "make ugliness sound just a little bit pretty".[45] Marc Weingarten of Entertainment Weekly gave the album a B+ rating, calling All Hope Is Gone "a metal assault-and-battery on the hypocrisies of the modern world".[46] Jim Kaz of IGN stated that the band's attempt to move from nu-metal to "more classic metal elements" was "the best career move they could've made".[7] Kaz gave All Hope Is Gone a score of 8.1 out of 10, writing, "[It] effectively [builds] upon the band's collective strengths."[7]

Rolling Stone's reviewer Chris Steffen praised the percussive edge on All Hope Is Gone noting, "The band’s multiple percussionists generate a din that’s more suffocating than ever [on the track] "Gematria"."[47] He proposed "Snuff" as the "most melodic" song on the album, comparing it to "Circle" from Vol. 3: (The Subliminal Verses).[47] Steffen also wrote that ""Psychosocial" is capped off with a time-signature shattering guitar/drum breakdown that will leave the best air-instrumentalists stumped."[47] The album was praised by Total Guitar's writer Nick Cracknell, who declared the effort "Slipknot's heaviest and most aggressive work to date".[48] He compared "Dead Memories" to the works of Alice in Chains, while praising "Gehenna" for being the band's "most experimental work in their history".[48] Cracknell went on to state "Wherein Lies Continue" contains a "huge chugging verse riff" which evolves into an "incredible soaring chorus".[48] Dan Martin of The Guardian compared "Dead Memories" to Metallica's song "Enter Sandman" and called "Gematria (The Killing Name)" a work of "astonishingly dense thrash", giving the album four out of five stars.[5] Criticizing the album, John Doran of The Quietus called "This Cold Black" the song's heaviest track, remarking, "Imagine dropping a 3ft wide, solid steel manhole cover on your bollocks and then having a Panzer full of cybermen drive backwards and forwards over it."[49] He compared the overall sound of the album to "a mess of shards", referring to "Snuff" "absolute garbage".[49]

All Hope Is Gone was Slipknot's first album to debut at number one on the Billboard 200 album chart, outselling LAX from The Game by 1,134 units.[50] Initially, Billboard published an article stating that The Game had secured the top spot with a margin of 13 units, in what was described as the "closest race for number one since SoundScan began tracking Data in 1991".[51] After a recount 12 hours later, the article was rewritten and Slipknot was awarded the number one spot, having sold 239,516 units.[51]As of 2010, All Hope Is Gone has sold 914,502 copies in the United States.[52] All Hope Is Gone debuted at number two in the United Kingdom, topped only by The Verve's album Forth.[53] The album also debuted at number one on eight other charts worldwide.[54] On December 9, 2008, All Hope Is Gone was certified Gold in the United States;[55] it was later also certified Gold in the United Kingdom and Australia.[56][57] "Psychosocial", the album's second single, brought Slipknot their first MTV Video Music Awards nomination for Best Rock Video,[58] as well as their seventh Grammy nomination for Best Metal Performance at the 51st Grammy Awards.[59] In December 2008, Total Guitar ranked All Hope Is Gone as one of the "50 Best Guitar Albums of the Year".[60] In 2009, it was rated 16th in UK magazine Kerrang!'s "The 50 Best Albums of the 21st Century" reader poll.[61]
