Slipknot decided to perform some oldie but goodie songs during a concert this week.
While playing in Noblesbille, Indiana, on Tuesday night, the metal band performed all but one song from their self-titled 1999 album, including the first performances of “No Life” and “Scissors” since 2000.
Fan favourite cuts like “Wait and Bleed” and “(sic)” also got played, as well as bonus tracks “Me Inside” and “Get This” and the hidden track “Eeeyore”, which was sure to satisfy serious Slipknot fans. The only song that didn’t get its turn in the set was “Diluted”, which Corey Taylor and his bandmates have never performed live.
“The last time we played this song [‘Scissors’] was in 2000,” Taylor told the Indiana crowd in a fan-shot video (via Blabbermouth). “This is dedicated to every maggot who has stuck by us for 25 years. We’re gonna take you someplace fucking dark.”
In a nice touch, each Slipknot member spored a red jumpsuit onstage, recalling the band’s striking look from the time they broke into the mainstream.

For “No Life”, which you can watch below, the band kicked things off with no introduction, Taylor simply launching right into his rap: “My freedom is best / Whole country’s on house arrest / And everyone’s a suspect / You can’t feel the flow because you died.”
