Iowa is Slipknot's second studio album. It was released on August 28, 2001 by Roadrunner Records. It was the last album by the band to be produced by Ross Robinson. The album's title is derived from the band's home state of Iowa. There was much anticipation for the band's second album following the success of their 1999 self-titled debut, resulting in Iowa premiering in top ten album sales in nine countries. Positively received by both fans and critics alike, the album included many of the band's hits including "Left Behind" and "My Plague", which were both nominated for a Grammy Award in 2002 and 2003, respectively. Critic John Molvey hailed the album as the "absolute triumph of nu metal."[1] While more technical than their debut, Iowa is also considered to be the band's heaviest album. The album has been certified platinum in Canada and the United States. Lua error in package.lua at line 80: module 'Module:Box-header/colours' not found.
