    After the release of Slipknot's self titled album, it was replaced with a new version that removed two of its tracks: Purity and Frail Limbs Nursery. This was due to an issue with a crime website. Here is a look at what happened.

    That drawing of Slipknot crucifying Fred Durst was the cover of my binder in middle school. Teachers were not too fond of it and kept confiscating it. But i had lots of copies and each day I'd come back with a new one and eventually they gave up.

      so these memories came rushing back because of your comment. I also had a binder in middle school that was dedicated to photos taken from kerrang, revolver and the like. The one with kud (mudvayne) with a bullet hole in his forehead got me fucked with by teachers a lot so I swapped it for a cool pic of joey (slipknot) in his iowa era mask and dark green jumpsuit.

I drew that piece and a couple others in exchange for a box of CD's and maybe $50. It was my first "paying gig" and I felt like I was on top of the world. Great video!

Later on, I was talking about it with a friend who is a massive Slipknot fan and when I started talking about Frail Limb, he was like "Wait, you have Frail Limb and Purity on there?" I said I did and he told me that those songs were removed on later releases and that I had one of the original copies. It goes for like $50 now.

Well on this tape when the main narrator was explaining the bands history he said Jonathon Davis was at a party and 2 homosexuals were licking each others as$es in full view of everyone there when one of the men accidentally shat in the others mouth and everyone seen corn in the mess.

    As someone with knowledge of copyright law, I can kind of see what happened.
    Copyright law often favors the more powerful party, since fair use is fairly subjective. Keeping that in mind, let's go back to the time of Slipknot's debut album. They were still a small-time group who lacked the influence to strongarm a copyright case, even if they had a leg to stand on.
    Frail Limb Nursery samples audio from the website so that track couldn't be saved. However, Purity is indeed fair use. Slipknot probably took the track out to play it safe.
    Some strong evidence for this is the fact that Purity was released later, while FLN never saw an official release after being pulled.

    5:45 What an amazing department man. I'm serious, it's rare for detectives to put aside pride and solicit *real* help from the community at large.
    Edit:
    damn it was too good to be true, but im still glad the girl wasn't buried alive!

    I was going to say, I’m in Lafayette County and have never heard of this case. And the guy listed as a witness is a local actor who has done some big films.
