Here is the list of 6 more rare songs Slipknot have announced they will play again

Slipknot are breaking out the deep cuts on their 25th anniversary tour. Here are six more long-unplayed fan favorites we’d love to hear again.

Nu metal’s nine-man powerhouse, Slipknot, kicked off their 25th anniversary tour this week by performing their iconic debut album in its entirety. This setlist revival has seen tracks like “Only One” and “No Life” performed live for the first time since 2012 and 2000, respectively.

With Slipknot set to stay in full gear for the rest of the year, the return of these rare gems has us thinking about other overlooked classics in their discography. Here are six more fan favorites that deserve to be brought back to the stage.

Iowa (Iowa, 2001)

It’s understandable why this track hasn’t made a setlist since 2016. “Iowa” is a 15-minute journey, and its dark, ambient, necromantic themes stand out as an anomaly in Slipknot’s typically explosive repertoire. However, this haunting conclusion to the band’s UK number-one album is a fan-favorite experiment, and the thought of it never unsettling audiences again is pretty disappointing.

My Plague (Iowa, 2001)

“My Plague” has all the qualities of a live showstopper. As one of the most popular tracks from *Iowa*—partly due to its feature on the 2002 *Resident Evil* film soundtrack—it packs a punch with its crushingly heavy verses and a chorus that’s a cathartic shout-along, complete with the unforgettable line, “I know why you blame me!” So why hasn’t it been played in eight years? It’s practically heresy.

The Nameless (Vol. 3: The Subliminal Verses, 2004)

Slipknot shed their nu metal identity in 2004, and “The Nameless” is a prime example, blending intense thrash elements with unexpected, tender acoustic passages. A live version of the track was released to promote the *9.0* album in November 2005, but it hasn’t been performed since. Given the streaming numbers compared to most other *Vol. 3* tracks, it’s clear that this needs to change.

Pulse Of The Maggots (Vol. 3: The Subliminal Verses, 2004)

Pulse Of The Maggots was written as an anthem for the Slipknot fan-base. The unity of such lines as “We are the new diabolic! We are the bitter bucolic!” – not to mention the popularity of the track and its exciting, constant groove – should make it an ideal concert regular. But, Pulse… hasn’t exploded from venue speakers since the summer of 2016.

All Hope Is Gone (All Hope Is Gone, 2008)

Famously, Slipknot have only played the title track of their fourth album live one time. This is in spite of it being All Hope Is Gone’s lead single, as well as its standing as a technical thrash metal banger with an addictive hook. Tell us you can’t picture entire arenas screaming, “We’ll find a way… when all hope is gone!” You can’t.

The Negative One (.5: The Gray Chapter, 2014)

The Negative One was Slipknot’s comeback track. Their first new music after the death of Paul Gray and the dismissal of Joey Jordison, it was a statement of continued furiosity from one of the nastiest bands on Planet Earth. This importance, plus the song’s chart success, hasn’t been enough to put the song on a setlist since June 2019, however.
