WHO’S THE GOAT ON THE COVER?
“This is Sid’s part from People = Shit cut up. He recorded that after his grandfather passed. You can hear it. I mean, it’s so guttural and so emotional. It gives me chills thinking about it.”
“That goat’s name is Eeyore. My mentor who got me going into photography, Stefan Seskis, he shot the first album cover, I came up with the concept and I so badly wanted to shoot the second album cover, and I just couldn’t get it done. One day I handed him the goat.”
There’s something almost viscous about it. It’s like week-old ham jelly,” Slipknot vocalist Corey Taylor drawls, a sadistic grin etched across his face. “It permeates. It’s like if you spend too much time in a meat-packing plant, you come away smelling of it.”
