Themes and production

In an interview with "Kerrang!" drummer Joey Jordison revealed that "All Hope Is Gone" is a true collaborative effort between the band and was one of the final songs recorded for the band's fourth studio album of the same name. "The song, music and theme speak for itself. It's a song about the world at stake: all the situations at hand, be it personal or worldly, and trying to turn things into a positive. Sometimes you have to face the grotesque to bring about something amazing." Jordison went on to say, "I actually demoed this song alone and didn't know what would come of it as we were nearing the end of the album. I was hoping it would make it. I knew it would, once everyone spewed their venom upon it."

Of the song's conception, Jordison said, "A lot of the grind riffs for the verses changed into riffs Paul had years ago, way before Slipknot. Funny how things won't die. Mick came in and fucking set fire to the track and Jim followed as well. Once Corey put his fucking vocals on it, that was it, man. That guy's voice and conviction could sell narcotics to a nun."
