About This Track

“Dead Memories” is a song by American metal band Slipknot. The song was released as the third single from their fourth album All Hope Is Gone. The track was released on December 1, 2008. The music video for the single was directed by P. R. Brown and Shawn Crahan. The video premiered on MTV2 on October 25, 2008. When performed live, Jim Root performs the solo. Unlike most Slipknot songs, there are no screamed vocals.

Music video

The music video for “Dead Memories” was directed by P. R. Brown. On September 30, 2008 the band’s record label Roadrunner Records released a 15 second teaser video on YouTube which featured vocalist Corey Taylor in what appears to be a grave in torrential rain. The video premiered on MTV’s Headbangers Ball on October 25, 2008 as part of the Headbangers Ball 20th anniversary special programming. The treatment for the music video was percussionist Shawn Crahan’s idea, Crahan calls the music video a “short film” and admits that it was a “very” expensive video. Crahan’s initial idea was to have several rooms, he introduced the idea to vocalist Corey Taylor who decided what each room would be.
The music video starts off with Taylor walking from the Iowa State Capitol in downtown Des Moines into a rural area. Taylor walks through fields and begins to dig. He seemingly falls through the ground into a room below, now wearing a mask.
