"Making the 'Sulfur' video continued our quest to make a video different and visually stimulating," Joey Jordison, drummer for the Grammy Award-winning band Slipknot told Noisecreep "Every video has had that goal, and the colors, edits and overall energy was captured perfectly."
With no CG work to fool the viewers, the band proudly puts themselves at risk to create a visual art that accompanies their brutal niche of metal. "The water tank was very intense," says Jordison. "Being in our masks and we can't breathe at all; total underwater blackout." Each band member was fully submerged in water for the video, a hat-tip to Bill Viola's "Ascension" installation which is on display at the museum in their hometown of Des Moines, Iowa. "[Once] again risking serious injury or death by drowning," said Jordison. "This is my favorite Slipknot vid so far."
