<1996.10.31> Slipknot - Mate. Feed. Kill. Repeat.
CD, Pale One Music - 000-2 [counterfeit]
Mate. Feed. Kill. Repeat. is the independent debut album by Slipknot, released on October 31, 1996 with a pressing of 1000 copies. The band self-distributed the CDs until June 13, 1997, when Dan Schlissel took the remaining 386 copies for distribution under his -Ismist Recordings label. Those copies received a new catalogue number (-ism CD 0032) and a very limited number of copies were unwrapped and opened to add a promotional ink stamp by the label, and later a promotional sticker. Mick Thomson and Craig Jones joined after the album's recording and as such do not appear on it. However, Jones helped with the concept and graphics of the sleeve. Although Slipknot considers the album to be a demo nowadays, its small number of copies has resulted in a lot of interest by collectors. Engineered in the winter '95-'96, Mixed during March '96, All songs written in fall '95.
