Slipknot’s self-titled major label debut for Roadrunner Records came out in 1999, but the band has been touring over the past year celebrating its 25th anniversary.

They’ve issued seven albums and had such songs as “Wait and Bleed,” “Duality,” “Psychosocial,” “Dead Memories,” “Snuff,” “The Devil in I” and more become hits.<\/p>\n

On the other side of the ring, you’ll find Mudvayne, who arrived on the scene a year later with their standout debut effort L.D. 50. The group has been celebrating the album’s 25th anniversary on tour as well. They issued five albums before splitting after 2009’s self-titled set, but have reunited in recent years and just issued their first new song in 16 years. Among their hits are “Dig,” “Not Falling,” “Happy?,” “Forget to Remember,” “Fall Into Sleep,” “Do What You Do” and “Scream With Me.”<\/p>\n
