"Sulfur" is a song by American heavy metal band Slipknot, the song is scheduled to be the fourth single from the band's fourth album All Hope Is Gone. The single is schedueled for release on June 15, 2009, a music video for the single was released on April 18, 2009.

The music video for the song was recorded on March 9th, 2009 (just two days before the end of their American tour) in the Los Angeles area. It was co-directed by percussionist Shawn Crahan and P. R. Brown making it the third time he's worked with Slipknot on a music video. On April 14, 2009 Slipknot released a 30-second preview of the video through MTV and announced that the music video would be premiered on Headbangers Ball on April 18, 2009.

The video depicts the nine members of Slipknot playing in groups of three as well as footage of each individual member submerged underwater. Percussionist and co-director Crahan explained that when he tries to write treatments for their music videos he always thinks; "What has Slipknot not done? What can we embark upon that will be fun and knowledge-enhancing instead of the same old song and dance?", claiming that the members themselves are the treatment for this video. Further explaining that they always try to give their fans as much of themselves as they can even though they're tired of live performances, revealing that in order to change things up they shot the members performing in groups of three. The concept of the band members appearing individually underwater was modeled after a video installation entitled "Ascension" by video artist Bill Viola. Crahan explained that the smell of sulfur is "something people either love or hate, and if you hate it, then it can be suffocating", so they incorporated water as a visual representation of this. He also went on to reveal that the members were more freaked out by the situation of shooting in a 11-foot glass tank. Explaining; "you had to go up this really weird ladder and the water was dirty and it was a five-foot by five-foot tank and it looked like when you stepped into it you were gonna hit your head on the frame that holds the glass and it would just rip your nose off", but he went on to claim it was his favorite video so far "because it involved that fear."
