Night review: Slipknot in Graz: bliss in the chamber of horrors

Yes, this is metal music. And at the same time punk down to the last pore. In other words: defensiveness, resignation, rebellion. Smile wearily at the judgment of others. To date, no other band has ousted metalheads Slipknot (a form of hangman’s knot) from that position. The nine-man team from Iowa, USA (besides the usual rock formation, equipped with a DJ and a percussion bat squad) came from a generation whose questions remained unanswered – and turned the tables.
