Sulfur
Released: April 17, 2009
Album: All Hope Is Gone
Director: Paul Brown / Shawn Crahan

Video: SLIPKNOT filmed a video for the song "Sulfur" on March 9 in the Los Angeles area with director P.R. Brown (MOTLEY CRUE, MARILYN MANSON, CHIMAIRA, AVENGED SEVENFOLD), who helmed the last two SLIPKNOT clips, "Psychosocial" and "Dead Memories". The video is premiered online in April.

Dead Memories
Released: October 25, 2008
Album: All Hope Is Gone
Director: Paul Brown / Shawn Crahan

Video: "This was a very expensive video. It�s actually a short film, and most people thought we were going to bite off way too much, and we did, but that�s the way we like it. And the sole purpose of this short film was to be an experiment to help Corey finalize �Dead Memories.� I took it that deep. He thought he finalized ideas by laying lyrics down to a musical score. Well, guess what? I�m gonna dig it all back up and force you into eight categories of this insanity in your mind. And it�s art, so who knows what it means? Who cares what it means? Just let it mean what it means to you." (Shawn)

Psychosocial
Released: August 2008
Album: All Hope Is Gone
Director: Paul Brown

The music video for "Psychosocial" began filming on June 30, 2008, but was soon delayed due to an unrelated head injury sustained by turntablist Sid Wilson before the shoot, who was subsequently hospitalised. During an interview with Kerrang!, guitarist James Root revealed that the video will feature the burning of the purgatory masks adorned by the band members in the splash teaser photos shown on Slipknot's website, reportedly because the masks represent theband's ego. The video will premiere on MTV's "FNMTV" show on July 18, 2008 as revealed on theRoadrunner Records home page.

The Blister Exists
Released: January 2007
Album: Vol 3: The Subliminal Verses
Director: M. Shawn Crahan

Video: The Music Video displays the band performing the song live, with clips of their fans being excited, with much similarity to the "The Nameless" music video.

The Nameless
Released: 2005
Album: Vol 3: The Subliminal Verses
Director: M. Shawn Crahan

Video: The Music Video displays the band performing the song live, with clips of their fans being excited. Some of the footage was used in Slipknot's DVD Voliminal: Inside The Nine. During the soft part of the song in the video, Corey Taylor curls his lips inward to make the mouth of his mask look more like an actual mouth. This technique is used often by Taylor during other live performances.

 

Before I Forget
Released: 2005
Album: Vol 3: The Subliminal Verses
Director: Tony Petrossian

Video: The video for "Before I Forget" shows Slipknot performing the song unmasked and in casual apparel, but when their faces were shown, the camera was zoomed in on a single part, such as the mouth or eyes. Their masks can be seen hanging next to them and swaying around. The video focused on the instruments of the members more often than it did their faces. "Before I Forget" actually evolved from a much earlier Slipknot song, "Carve".

Vermilion Pt.2
Released: 2004
Album: Vol 3: The Subliminal Verses
Director: Mark Klasfeld, M. Shawn Crahan

Video: The Vermilion Pt. 2 video shows the same girl, but this time in a field peacefully sleeping. The wind begins to lift her and sway her back and forth. Eventually, the viewer realizes the girl is dead; however, she appears to be in a more peaceful state than in the first music video.

Vermilion Pt. 1
Released: 2004
Album: Vol 3: The Subliminal Verses
Director: Tony Petrossian, M. Shawn Crahan

Video: In Vermilion Pt. 1, it shows a girl living a tortured life in a crowded city. She walks around in contortions and twists as people walk by in a blur, not noticing her pain at all. The only time she gets noticed is when she wears a Maggot Mask (a mask specially designed for fans of the band to wear) which makes the members of the band appear and dance with the girl. On the first time she puts on the mask, the band members appear in front of her and they put on a white mask which enables their true faces to be seen for a couple of seconds. Then the band members dance with her. A caterpillar is also seen growing in the video and at the end seen it turns into a butterfly. The video ends with the girl screaming and tearing her hair out in utter anguish.
The woman in the videos for Vermilion Pt. 1 & 2 has been rumoured to be a partner of one of the band members or in some way related to them. She is actually an actress, Janna Bossier in Los Angeles.

Duality
Released: 2004
Album: Vol 3: The Subliminal Verses
Director: Tony Petrossian, M. Shawn Crahan

Video: The music video was shot six miles outside Des Moines, Slipknot's home town. The video starts with a large crowd of teenagers and adults running towards the abandoned farm house where Slipknot is performing the song. Once the crowd gets inside they break windows, tear down walls, lift some of the Slipknot members and mosh. Near the end of the song the crowd stops causing chaos when Corey puts out his hand and makes them calm down. Then the scene cuts and an even larger crowd is situated outside watching the performance. Once the chorus began again the crowd immediately causes more carnage and the song ends suddenly.
