The band recorded the two-disc album during a 2004–2005 world tour that promoted their third studio album Vol. 3: (The Subliminal Verses). Released by Roadrunner Records on November 1, 2005, 9.0 Live features tracks from Slipknots first three studio albums: Slipknot, Iowa, and Vol. 3: (The Subliminal Verses). Many of the included tracks are rarely played live; Skin Ticket from the album Iowa was its first live performance. 9.0: Live peaked in the top twenty in album sales for Austria and the United States, and was certified gold in the United States. Critical reception was generally positive, with Adrien Begrand of PopMatters calling it a very worthy live album. While producing their second DVD Disasterpieces in 2002, the band members of Slipknot were inspired to produce a live album after noticing how well they performed when they knew they were being recorded. Two years later, in 2004, Slipknot promoted Vol. 3: (The Subliminal Verses) during a world tour which included 233 concerts across 34 countries in 28 months; music for the live album was recorded during the tour. The tracks on 9.0: Live were compiled from performances in Singapore, Tokyo, Osaka, Las Vegas, Phoenix, New York City, and Dallas. Percussionist Shawn Crahan said the band made an effort to pay more attention to detail than usual during the tour, noting, when youve got a microphone hanging onto your every note, you tend to give maybe 115 percent instead of 110 percent. The album begins with a staged vocal introduction which was recorded before a concert, informing the audience that the band would not be performing, in an effort to incite anger in the crowd. 9.0: Live includes tracks from the bands first three studio albums, and the banned track Purity which was removed from the bands debut album, Slipknot, due to copyright issues. It also contains tracks that are rarely played live, such as Iowa and Get This, as well as the only live performance of Skin Ticket. youtube/watch?v=pB7toCXnFmA
