Slipknot! (God forgive me...)

I heard a Slipknot song the other day, almost by accident (boring story, unimportant)...

Anyway, it was called People are Shit or something like that and I'm assured it's off their latest album...

I think the song was pretty average (even me, the consummate non-guitarist wasn't impressed with the way it moved) but I had no idea that the goddamn band was so HEAVY.

I thought they were total lightweights.

Puzzled.

f_b_s

P.S. Turn this thread into a flame-fest and I'll start deleting all your other posts as well, just for fun.

slipknot are heavy...a lot of people dislike them because they make theyre music "heavy" by tuning down like 6 steps or something and using occational rap and using dj's scribbling on a disk thing....

You want to get some flaming started? Well in that case I'll say that I saw Slipknot live, WITH FOUR OTHER NU-METAL bands!!!!! *gasp heard in background*

I'm not a big fan of their stuff, but they are really heavy, and actually are pretty damn good live, especially to mosh to.

i've never heard them before, not a singls song, but at school, slipknot
is a trend.
and i hate that.
i don't know if i should be happy i've never heard them, or sad because
i'm missing out. frankly, i wouldn't bother trying to get into them.

You're not really "missing out." They're not very good musicians, it's just heavy...

eehh......they're okay if you're starting to get into heavy music......but if you've heard other good metal bands, they can be annoying then, imo.

1. they need a new guitarist(s). they're drummer and singer aren't bad though.
2. why do they have so many members? they have like 9 members, but when i listen to the song, the full potential of having a 9 member band isnt unleashed. if you listen to the song, you can tell that the same song could be accomplished by like a 4 or 5 piece band.
3. masks and makeup don't bother me really, i care about the music the most, and besides, it hides there probably ugly faces.

He did a drum solo live when I saw them...it was fantastic. Seriously.

The actual drummer behind the kit. The other two that just have one drum to bang on are stupid.

yeah, you'd think that the combined 3 drummers would come up with slick complicated technical drum passages, but they don't.

i actually saw the video for the song they did for the resident evil soundtrack ( i forgot the name of the song) and it's them playing the song live and i think i saw the "percussionist" actually sitting on his drum in a weird pose doing nothing.

i have a music video downloaded from kazaa...(i was curious as to what they sounded like)....anyway, it was the song "wait or bleed" i think. It was on a Connan O'brien show and the one drummer (hes the good one i'm guessing) was doing all the drumming...and the one of the other two was bending over repeatively and the last drummer was holding a drum stick up to his 1 foot crooked nose and hitting random drums...they mess up a lot, but it all sounds like noise so no one notices.....and im fuckin pissed that the one guitarist (w/ the b.c. rich american handcrafted warlock) can be 200 times crappir than me and still get his own custom american handcrafted warlock ITS JUST NOT FAIR

Well, just get 8 of your friends to get instruments and all play their own things at the same time

By the way, the song you're talking about, Wait and Bleed, sucks beyond repair.

I think the song I liked best by them was called Spit it Out...

I don't listen to them anymore...

I did for a short time back when they only had one cd out...then I saw them live at the Pledge of Allegiance tour, but I only went to that to see System of a Down.

Yeah they're pretty garbage.

f_b_s.....you can hear the same amount of heaviness...or more, in other more talented bands....so it's actually fun to listen to over and over.

I liked slipknot way before they became trendy, (and also saw them live with - In flames) ,in there late MFKR years, Spit it out is sort of a fast/rap song, the vocalist is very fast and speedy on the vocalist if any slipknot song would have to be my favourate it would be Liberate or Scissors, but its just annoying that they have become a trendy band...which pissed me off...

slipknot just plain sucks...

the idea of the masks and shit was stolen from mushroomhead which was formed way before slipknot
the lyrics are mostly shit and the act is boring me to death.

I don't like to see that clip every day on the local tv music station haha, that's the reason why I don't listen to radio and I hardly watch tmf.


just not my thing I guess...

They're allright actually. People hate them mainly because it's cool to hate them. They're more metal than Machinehead and Metallica nowadays.

I heard Iowa and that other cd but It's not my thing.
actually I do think disciple dude has got a point there, the latest machine head was pretty fucked up with really sell-able lyrics, for me they've sold out a while ago..
I' m not into metallica but when I see 2 out of 10 so called metaldudes walk with a metallica shirt I don't think I really want to know.

I heard a few cd's and I like Kill Em all and rid the lightning the best. the later stuff isn' t nice at all if you ask me.

Don't mind them really, apart from when they rap. I only listen to a couple of songs at the end of the first album (I think one's called Get This and the other's a hidden track, I never put track names on my mds) which are pretty much based on Morbid Angel riffs and have proper blastbeats, no less. Rest of the album kinda stretches a formula a bit too thin; what is it, like 70 minutes+? Far too long.

Sure, so they're flavour of the month, but aren't they preferable to linkin park and <snigger> papa roach?

agreed, they should be shot in the head. The riffs are so damn heavy you cant make them out, they have little talent, and a band that takes 9 members to make a song, sucks, im sorry all slipknot fans, actually im not, they suck.

Slipknot members
