10 Heaviest Slipknot Anthems So Far
8. Eyeless
The third song on Slipknot’s phenomenal self-titled debut, Eyeless is one of the heaviest songs the band have ever released. Still showing up now and again in their live performances, the intro to this song kicking in completely electrifies a crowd, even twenty years on from its release.
Those who have been in a mosh pit when this song has come on probably have a reasonable understanding of what it was like to go twelve rounds with Mike Tyson in his prime.
This track has everything you could ask for from a 90s Slipknot anthem. Sid Wilson dominates the DJ decks whilst a thrashing riff and more of our beloved speed-drumming produce one of metal’s most energetic songs.
Follow this up with a stomach-churning breakdown and punching vocals about not being able to see California without a certain famous actor’s eyes, because Slipknot, and we’re on to an absolute stormer.
To this day Eyeless is still a fan favourite, regularly blasting in rock clubs across the world and having been wonderfully covered by Bring Me The Horizon (back when they still played heavy music.) If this song isn’t on every one of your Spotify playlists, you need to re-evaluate your life choices.
