Slipknot is an American heavy metal band from Des Moines, Iowa. The band was founded in 1995 by vocalist Anders Colsefni, guitarists Donnie Steele and Josh Brainard, bassist Paul Gray, drummer Joey Jordison and percussionist Shawn "Clown" Crahan, who released the group's first demo Mate. Feed. Kill. Repeat. in 1996. After its release, the band went through a number of lineup changes, replacing Colsefni with Corey Taylor, Steele with Mick Thomson and Brainard with Jim Root, as well as adding second percussionist Chris Fehn, turntablist Sid Wilson and sampler Craig "133" Jones. The nine-piece's official debut album, Slipknot, was produced by Ross Robinson and released by Roadrunner Records in 1999. Most of the songwriting was credited to all nine members except Root, who had joined the band late into the recording process.
The follow-up to Slipknot, entitled Iowa, was released in 2001 and credited all nine band members for songwriting.
