When Slipknot's self-titled debut was released to the masses during the dying days of the 20th century, it gave a shot in the arm to heavy metal music the likes of which only a handful of the greatest bands can equal. Twenty-one years, six albums and countless sold-out world tours later, and the group have evolved into chart-toppers, debuting at number one on both the US Billboard 200 and the UK Albums Chart with their latest release 'We Are Not Your Kind.' Jonathan Graham sits down for an exclusive interview with one half of the Slipknot's guitar double team, Jim Root.
