Slipknot rip Sonisphere 2011 apart
Exploding headline set closes the metal festival

Kai Jones - 10 July 2011
With flames continually bursting through the stage, pyros exploding indiscriminately and the band clambering over instruments,
amps and every inch of a shivering stage, Slipknot didn't
just storm Sonisphere as explode into its face, David Cronenburg-style. The crowd - many of them dressed in Slipknot
branded, 'maggot' overalls - sucking on every cathartic moment.
They finished the night by putting Paul
Gray's No2 jump suit front centre, for the whole crowd to see, the band assembling in front of the now empty clothing,
before drummer Joey Jordison gave the suit one final embrace.
