Slipknot was an American thrash metal band from New Haven, Connecticut. Stiemy was previously the singer in Fatal Vision who appeared on the "Connecticut Fun" compilation LP. New Haven at the time was the base of operation for Revelation Records. Chang stopped playing music after Slipknot's split. In Chang's younger years he torched part of Yale University. F went on to play drums in another New Haven hardcore outfit, with Stiemy of Slipknot, called Malachi Krunch. Stiemy later took up art and a career as a chef.
Another track named "Some Friend" was recorded during the sessions for their s/t EP, but did not make it to the final product. The track was eventually released on Revelation Records' 15th anniversary compilation "Revelation 100".
