Information AboutIowa (album) |
''Iowa'' is the second (or third, if you include "Mate.Feed.Kill.Repeat") album by Nu-Metal band Slipknot . The album was released on August 28 , 2001 by Roadrunner Records . The album's title is a reference to the band's home state (the members live relatively anonymously in Des Moines , Iowa ). The cover of the album shows the head of a goat, an image the band incorporated into their live set, on their boiler suits, and in the video for "Left Behind", as the band felt they had been held as Scapegoat s since the release of '' Slipknot ''. The goat also refers to how when they were all brought up in Iowa, middle America, they were all warned basically as they've said "Beware of the horned goat of Satan!", and that they think that is, to quote Corey "total bullshit - it's just an animal!". The title of the first song is (515), which is the telephone prefix code for central Iowa , where Des Moines is located.
