In case you’ve ever needed to reside in the home that Slipknot trashed throughout their “Duality” video, you are in luck! The home – situated at 1050 16th Avenue, West Des Moines, IA – is hitting the public sale block after being foreclosed upon, in response to The Des Moines Register. I am guessing they’ve fastened it up since that video shoot, until the house owners had been actually pleased with having their home totally annihilated within the title of steel.
The home goes up for bid on October 14 and is value an estimated $336,400. The home was foreclosed in January when the house owners could not pay the remaining $141,404 on their mortgage. Oh, and in case you had been questioning – the filming of the “Duality” music video did about $500,000 value of harm to the home. Contemplating the video shot on March 27, 2004, that equates to roughly $864,397 in 2025 cash. So yeah, it was an costly shoot.
On the video, Slipknot percussionist M. Shawn Crahan recalled in a 2012 interview with Kerrang!: “We requested our actual followers to be within the video, and folks got here from all over the place. It meant a lot to us. We weren’t actually imagined to destroy that home — however we did it anyway. One other plus for that track is that I get to beat the fuck out of my keg. What else may you need?”
After filming wrapped, the owners introduced the band with an in depth listing of things and fixtures that had been broken or destroyed in the course of the shoot. Possibly if that Slipknot deal goes through by next week, the band would possibly purchase the home themselves?
