Not considered a demo by the band, that is incorrect information. Shawn Crahan has specifically confirmed to fans asking this exact question & he confirmed it is an official album & not a “demo”

Significant sludge metal influences for this album. The album sounds really similar to the band Acid Bath, which is a sludge metal band. This album's vocals, and instrument sound, sounds really similar to what sludge metal bands do. Therefore this album should be considered "sludge metal".

this is stated in the bands main article

Changed "American nu-metal band" to "American metal band" since Slipknot is not a nu-metal band.

I changed heavy metal to the correct nu metal

It said heavy metal when it is actually nu metal
