WHAT IS PURITY

Purity is a song that appeared on the second, self-titled album "Slipknot" alongside it was the song Frail Limb Nursery. This song was the cause of the album's rerelease due to the possible uprising of a lawsuit. The song is about a girl named Purity Knight that was apparently brutally kidnapped and buried alive, the story was fabricated by crimescene and is ultimately untrue. Corey however found the story at Crimescene.com and, not knowing it was untrue, wrote a song about it; transforming the demo "Despise" into the song "Purity". As a result it was placed onto Slipknot's first Road Runner outing. On a lighter note the owner of crimescene.com has been grateful to Slipknot for a significant increase in hits and thus we may be able to hear Purity once again... (maybe as a rerelease). The song has recenty been confirmed for a rerelease on the band's upcoming DVD release.
