Album Notes & Community Reviews
Originally released as a self-financed demo, 'Mate. Feed. Kill. Repeat.' captures Slipknot's earliest, most experimental incarnation with original vocalist Anders Colsefni. The recording showcases a raw fusion of death metal, funk, and industrial elements that sharply contrasts with their subsequent major-label sound. Due to its limited initial pressing of 1,000 copies, it has become a highly sought-after collector's item among fans.
