That's probably one of the most original and interesting tribute albums that a band like Slipknot would ever get. Slipknot come on like an a-bomb; nine men pummeling out the most brutal, banging sound. Their fanbase demand the most uncompromising music. That spirit fuels The Scorched Earth Orchestra. They expand on Slipknot's marching-band-from-hell framework. Booming percussion; in-your-face horns; string sections that rip at your flesh; all of these make this a tribute that maggots will dig like the grave.

The Pulse of Radio reports: If you have missed SLIPKNOT on this summer's Rockstar Energy Mayhem tour, don't worry — the band will return for its own trip through the U.S. starting in late January, according to HardDrive Radio. It's too early for details, but fans will probably hear a lot more of the band's new album, "All Hope Is Gone", on that trek. The group is only playing one new song on the current trip, but singer Corey Taylor told The Pulse of Radio he couldn't be happier with the response the band has received. "It's very appreciative," he said. "It's been two and a half years since we played, our first show was Seattle (on July 9) and people were just so cheesed to see us, you know what I mean? It was such a great feeling. And, you know, the feedback afterward is just so good, man. People are just celebrating you being there, and if you do well, then people are just really gonna have a good time watching you."

In addition to all-new masks and costumes, SLIPKNOT's current stage show features a lift that raises percussionist Shawn Crahan high above the stage as well as a drum platform for Joey Jordison that rotates sideways, upside down and around.

Most of the bands who previously turned slagging Slipknot into an extreme sport have fallen off the face of the earth.

The 'Knot, on the other hand, have spent nearly a decade cementing their place as one of hard rock’s most extreme acts.

They've dropped three albums and two DVDs, all of which went Platinum or better. They've sold out festivals and tours around the globe.

And they are preparing to release their fourth record, All Hope Is Gone.
