1. Slipknot es un grupo de metal alternativo/nu metal con claras influencias de otros géneros en sus composiciones como pueden ser el death metal, metalcore y el hardcore melódico y cuya seña de identidad principal es la utilización de máscaras que usualmente varían con la salida de nuevos trabajos. Fue formado en Des Moines, en el estado de Iowa, Estados Unidos, en 1993. Entonces el proyecto se llamó "The Pale Ones", "Pyg system", y "Meld" antes de llamarse Slipknot.

The riff when he starts screaming after "Binding my time..."
B |-1--0-| F#|-1--0-| - let the chords ring B |-1--0-|
Then there is that noisefest part with feedback. Most notes resemble the intro so play around with that. Im sure its a random thing when the band plays it live (if they do...). It kinda reminds me of Kurt Cobain and his feedback-led solos.
Towards the end ("I want my time.. Id rather die..."
B |-7-| F#|-7-| - this chord is played with flanger B |-7-|
"Need Time!" (when Corey goes all psyco!)
B |-00-00-| F#|-00-00-| - Just that chord B |-00-00-|
