2002 saw the first serious musical projects for Slipknot members outside of the band.

Lead vocalist Taylor and guitarist Root revived their band Stone Sour with the release of their eponymous debut album Stone Sour.

Drummer Jordison also had his own project in which he took up the role of guitarist in the Murderdolls.

Slipknot planned to work on a third album towards the end of 2002 but the band was experiencing problems. At this time there was rumours concerning whether the band had split and the possibility of a third album.

By mid-2003 Crahan also had a new side project, To My Surprise, in which he worked with producer Rick Rubin.

The band released their third album, Vol. 3: (The Subliminal Verses) on May 24, 2004, which peaked at #2 on the Billboard 200.
