Make sure, when sorting out mobile disco hire in Kent for your next big event, that you have a proper sit-down and a chat with your DJ so they know exactly what kind of music you like and what sort of tone you’re keen to set for the fiesta.

It always pays to include some trendy music, no matter what your own particular tastes are, since you’re going to want to encourage people to hop up out of their seats and hit the dancefloor.

And if you’ve been keeping half an eye on the charts recently, you’ll no doubt already know that Slipknot looks set to have their first number one album hit the UK charts in 18 years with We Are Not Your Kind.

According to NME, the album – which was released on August 9th – is now 13,000 chart sales ahead of Ed Sheeran’s No.6 Collaborations Project, selling the most physical copies and digital downloads over the weekend.

The band will be touring the UK next year, so if you’re a big Slipknot fan make sure you make a note of it somewhere and keep an eye open for tickets.

Have a read of NME’s review of the album to see what they think. “It’s Slipknot at their artiest, an implicit riposte to detractors who would write them off as eternally adolescent shock-rockers that bang bins and shout at lot (although, thankfully, there’s also a massive amount of that on the album),” they conclude.

So have a listen and let us know what you think of the new album. Would you add it to your event playlist?
