Heavy Fucking Metal & Rock 'N' Fucking Roll!

Can you believe it’s been 25 years since Slipknot released their incredible self-titled debut album? Neither could we, so we dedicated 28 pages to them this issue. Clown, Jim Root and Ross Robinson look back on the album that changed the world.

We also chat to their first manager and the friends who witnessed the birth of the nine-headed monster; ex-Hammer editor Robyn Doreian remembers meeting the band and what prompted her to give them their first Hammer cover feature; the guys reflect on THAT London Astoria gig, and we ask nine musicians what the debut means to them.

Elsewhere in the mag, we chat to the new face of British metal, Heriot; metal’s biggest names tell us their favourite Ozzy tracks to celebrate the Double-O’s long-overdue induction into the Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame; and we meet House Of Protection, featuring former members of Fever 333.

​​​​​​​We review Nightwish’s new epic, Yesterwynde; Unto Others’ Gabriel Franco talks German techno and his past as a “little metal sh*thead”, and Bury Tomorrow’s Dani Winter-Bates answers your questions.

We hit the studio with Opeth, Bridear’s Kimi invites us into her record collection, Lacuna Coil reminisce about the making of Our Truth, and Powerwolf’s Falk Maria Schlegel dispenses his life lessons.

All this, plus all the essential news and reviews from the world of metal!
