Message from Slipknot1.com:

ALL HOPE IS GONE debuted at #1 on the charts on release day in Japan and it was the #1 selling international album for the release week and #2 overall, only beat out by Japan's biggest pop singer. Thanks to everyone in Japan for their continued loyalty and support!

Altitude recently conducted an interview with SLIPKNOT percussionist Chris Fehn. The two-minute clip, which includes performance footage from the recently completed Rockstar Energy Mayhem Festival tour, can be viewed below.

According to Hits Daily Double (the companion web site of music industry tip sheet HITS), SLIPKNOT's new album, "All Hope Is Gone" is poised to sell between 230,000 and 250,000 copies in the United States during its first week of release. The CD will go head-to-head with Geffen rapper THE GAME's "L.A.X." for the top spot on next week's The Billboard 200 chart.

SLIPKNOT's last album, "Vol. 3: (The Subliminal Verses)", opened with 243,000 copies back in June 2004 to debut at No. 2. "Vol. 3 (The Subliminal Verses)" was the follow-up to "Iowa", which registered a first-week sales tally of more than 254,000 copies back in September 2001 to enter The Billboard 200 chart at No. 3.

Today I've got for you some exclusive scans from the new issue of British Kerrang! magazine! Check them out here:

Newly reformed rap-rock band RAGE AGAINST THE MACHINE won the Hall of Fame award, which has previously been awarded to JUDAS PRIEST and AC/DC, while SLIPKNOT collected the Kerrang! Icon award.

SLIPKNOT lead singer Corey Taylor dedicated the award to the band's drummer Joey Jordison, who was absent due to a broken ankle.

Taylor said: "I'm speechless; I don't know what to say. I wish there was more of us here. I just showed up for the booze."

Move over, Marilyn Manson. The masked men in Slipknot are the latest heavy metal dudes being blamed for a school slaying. On Monday, a teen wielding a sword attacked four people at his high school in Krugersdorp, South Africa, killing one. According to eyewitness accounts, the suspect was wearing a mask similar to that of Slipknot drummer Joey Jordison. A community leader was quick to blame "bad Satanic music" for the incident.

Slipknot front man Corey Taylor calls bullshit. "Obviously, I'm disturbed by the fact that people were hurt and someone died," he tells Blender. "As far as my responsibility for that goes, it stops there, because I know our message is actually very positive." In the past, when Slipknot was linked to real-world violence, "I used to sweat it really hard," he adds. "But the thing I have to realize is the fact that I'm not encouraging anybody to kill anybody. I encourage our fans to express themselves, to stick together and to help each other."

"You have something like this happen, it could have been Marilyn Manson, it could have been any number of people who make art that is startling visually, on the darker side. It could've been Pat Boone, for Christ's sake. At the end of the day, there are always going to be mental disorders and people who cause violence for no other reason than the fact that they're fucked up and lost. And all we can do is try to learn from it."

Meanwhile, Slipknot — whose fourth album, All Hope Is Gone, comes out next week — have been forced to cancel their upcoming European festival dates to allow Jordison time to recover from a broken ankle.
