Rock and Metal's Slipknot Thread

[fetus_eater]

Lamb of God is good if you like bands like Shadows Fall, Atreyu, Cradle of Filth, etc.

oh ok! cool thnxs hun!!! cradle of filth is okay....i heard of those bands just not actually "heard of them" if you know what i mean...yeah i have to but there cds! lol :) i hear from everyone there awesome :p

[apocalypse13]

Wow you are really clever, and these were your first two posts!!! well that will probably get you banned hahahaha idiot!!!

Lol. That is pretty funny. You don't go to a Slipknot thread and then say "Slipknot can suck my dick because thats how gay they are." That is just asking to get banned.

[Sleeper]

I dont know how COF is compared to Lamb Of God's sound

[The JoZ]

Actually, none of those bands really sound anything like each other

[Huber]

Ugh. I got neg repped in here again for having the name Sliptallica. I hate it when people don't sign there neg reps.

Yeah. COF and those other bands are truly differen't. Not that I don't like them, just I wouldn't say the sound alike or belong under the same category.

[Thor]

I think Cradle of Filth's sound is garbage. I just dont like Dani Filth. However, their drummer, Nick Barker, is totally awesome.

[Sleeper]

Well ive been in millions of threads talking about COF and there singer, So im just going to keep on the topic of slipknot.

[Thor]

Yeah, lets keep this thread about Slipknot, not about COF.

Is the Disasterpieces DVD any good?

[Sleeper]

Yeh its a great DVD, Lots of features and great camera shots. The VIP feature is awesome, I think they should took out some songs from the list like Eeyore.

[Invicta_Veritas]

Is the Disasterpieces DVD any good?

Yea, its a pretty cool dvd. A friend of mine who hates SK gave it to me, so I was like cool and Ive kept it ever since.

[Sleeper]

The only part of that dvd i never liked was, Was when corey made everyone sit downw for Spit It Out. It was pointless and when they did do it, Wasnt very amazing.

[Invicta_Veritas]

I think Corey anticipated a bigger effect than what he got out of it.

[Sleeper]

Well yeh, I dont think he would of wasted all that time for nothing, But the kids there wouldnt listen at all. They were all psyched that Sid was in the audience and when they went to touch his mask he started flying fists.

[Thor]

I thought the best part of the show was the opening. They couldnt have played that song any better. It just sounded so awesome.

[Sleeper]

People=$hit is not one of my favorites, But its one of my favorite live songs from them.

[Thor]

People=$hit is not one of my favorites, But its one of my favorite live songs from them.
People = **** is my 2nd favorite song by Slipknot, but the best is Purity. They just dont have another song that can compare to it.

[Mister_Che]

Purity sounds best live. The crunch from both guitars is awesome on Disasterpieces.

[The JoZ]

I think Corey anticipated a bigger effect than what he got out of it.

He gets a big effect out of it now if he didn't then.

Seriously, everyone knows it's coming now, they know what to do :cool:

[Huber]

People = **** is my 2nd favorite song by Slipknot, but the best is Purity. They just dont have another song that can compare to it.

Purity Live is there best song, period. The studio version has nothing on the live version.

[Sleeper]

The studio version of purity is ok, I would like them to re-do it now. That would sound amazing.

[TheSubtleArts]

i hope they still play gently, in recent shows i dont think they have

[Sleeper]

Well there on tour for Volume 3 so i would think they would play Vol 3 Stuff. But if they snuck in Gently for a closer that would be pretty cool.

[kick_a$s_for_cliff]

anyone here seen the ***official*** slipknot shoe?
can you say 'sellouts' ?

[PepsiMetal]

Slipknot will perform tonight on Conan Obrien show. 11:30 Central time, 12:30 Eastern time.

[Ballsack_AC/DC69]

Slipknot will perform tonight on Conan Obrien show. 11:30 Central time, 12:30 Eastern time.
That was on the 27th of February.

[PepsiMetal]

That was on the 27th of February.

:confused:

On NBC's website it says ALL-NEW. Plus I heard on some local radio station they said slipknot will perform tonight on slipknot. I dont know, I think they record the show few hours before the show. And 27th is sunday, and there is no late night shows on sunday.

[Sleeper]

anyone here seen the ***official*** slipknot shoe?
can you say 'sellouts' ?
So your saying if your wearing a Slipknot shirt there not selling out, And if there selling a shoe they are?

[PepsiMetal]

WTF does band's clothing gear have anything to do with selling out? Almost every band out there has their own clothing gear.

[Huber]

anyone here seen the ***official*** slipknot shoe?
can you say 'sellouts' ?

Almost every band has there own clothing. Shoes are no differen't then a shirt.

[The JoZ]

Clothing has nothing to do with 'selling out'.

Generally, I thought the concept of selling out dealt with a band's music, and how they sound. If Slipknot changed the kind of music they were writing to appease the label, or to gain more fans or whatever, that would be selling out...or if they specifically said they didn't ever want to have any merchandise with their logos on it, and then changed their mind...maybe that would apply.

But simply having gear with your name on it doesn't constitute selling out. It's called 'promotion', and Slipknot, like many good bands, have utilized it well.

That being said, I wouldn't be caught dead wearing those shoes, but someone would, I bet :lol:

[Bartender]

To my mind, selling out is doing something you very clearly said you wouldn't, usually for some monetary renumeration, or at least the want of such (case in point; Metallica), or else very notably changing your sound for the want of commercial success.

So, having clothing, etc, shouldn't necessarily be seen as selling out, unless it goes against former principles. It could be seen as just being whores (or whatever :)) in general, from a standpoint independent of the concept of selling out. For example, I always thought the Slipknot lunchbox was a step too far.

[PepsiMetal]

To my mind, selling out is doing something you very clearly said you wouldn't, usually for some monetary renumeration, or at least the want of such (case in point; Metallica), or else very notably changing your sound for the want of commercial success.

How can a person know if a band didn't and doesn't like playing the music? How do we know they didn't just change because they were tired of old music and went for something new? :confused:

To my understanding, it's impossible for a person (public audience) to know if a band sold out or not. Unless the band actually says they hate playing current music but they will because they need money. Or something like that.

BTW, tonight slipknot performed Before I forget. Pretty good. Saw Mick's new ibanez.

[Diatonic Dissonance™]

I'm not too fond of their stuff, but they put on a pretty good performance at the Big Day Out.

Also, Mick 7 had an awesome guitar :p.

[TheSubtleArts]

yea i liked the videos from the Big Day Out, cory didnt sound that bad to me, everyone was saying he sounded like ****

[Sleeper]

Did anyone catch Conan last night, It was a ok performance. I really think they should of put Opium Of The People as the next single.

[Huber]

Opium Of The People is my ring tone :)

[Sleeper]

Nice, Is it the begining guitar riff?

[TheSubtleArts]

i think the single should have been The Blister Exists

[Thor]

Pulse of the Maggots should have been the first single, then Duality, then The Blister Exists. In my opinion, Slipknot did it all wrong. The Vermilion video was really cool though.

[maggot4875]

^i thought that video was stupid,but duality is crazy,people bashing walls and falling through ceilings,crazy ****

hey i have a drumstick and guitar pick signed by joey jordison does anyone know how much it would be worth?

[The JoZ]

My guess is not much :thumb:

[Polyamarous]

Ok can i just say that i thouroughly dislike Slipknot and in my opinion very simillar to many other death metal bands but they are however insanley brilliant musicans and fantastic at playing thier instruments. im just not into 'sniff a carcus of a dead crow and projectile vomit over my friends' thing.

[Huber]

They aren't death metal, just for your future references.

Plus, if you can find evidence of Slipknot every doing something so grotesque as to sniff a carcus and vomit, I'd be very surprised. You've obviously been given the wrong stereotype. Stereotypes are bad, don't listen to them.

[Thor]

how about Disasterpiece and (SiC) (my two favorite slipknot songs)
What about Purity? Thats the best Slipknot song of them all!

[Huber]

Yes, Purity should definetly be on your "Best of slipknot" thing.

they actually used to do alot of stuff like that, shawn used to carry around a dead raven i believe it was, in a jar that he would open up smell, causing him to vomit on stage. he also would pour goat blood on himself

[relliK]

Does anyone know what song Slipknot played on the Conan appearance?

[Huber]

I think you're confusing slipknot with another band.

He isn't mistaken. I just recalled the raven thing. When he said carcus I imagined something besides a raven and didn't think of it.

[Huber]

Does anyone know what song Slipknot played on the Conan appearance?

The recent appearance (I can't remember if it was Kimmel or Conan) they played Before I Forget. On the Conan performance a while back that I saw, they played Duality. Before that they played Conan and performed Heretic Anthem, and they've played Wait and Bleed on Conan.

[TheSubtleArts]

on the Conan O Brien show: they played wait&bleed in 2000, the heritic anthum in 2001, and Before I Forget last week. thats all i know of them playing on that show

they played Duality and The Blister Exists on the Jimmy Kimmel show in July

[Thor]

Haha, watching Slipknot play the Heretic Anthem on National TV would be quite a sight. :lol:

[paco999]

^^^i would be awesome.

But it was probably edited but it would still be funny to go filpin channels and see it there

[PepsiMetal]

Slipknot played duality on jay leno I think some time ago. Not sure when but I saw a TV rip vid for download.

[Huber]

A long time ago they played (SiC) on Leno.

[The JoZ]

On the most recent Conan appearance, they played Before I Forget.

[thelittledrummerboy]

When they played The heretic anthem on Conen they changed the song to cut out all the swear words. The stage was small as hell. It was kinda funny watching them headbang with limited room. Also, clown and chris didn't have their drums, they just did the backing vocals.

[lecky]

any simpleplan fans in here ?

Stone Sour website for Corey and Jim, Murderdolls website for Joey. Why do u want to see them unmasked for anyway. That goes against their ethics.

You Australian. I saw that performance, Awesome :thumb: Except Joey didn't do his double kick solo in Heretic. He just did some tom solo :confused:
This was at the Sydney show by the way.

[Endless Obsession]

Cause im not really a big fan, there okay. i dont really care about the ethics of there band, im more interested in the music.

Ever since the S/T album they've been on the LATE shows. LATE! LATE! Not 8 o'clock prime time everyone is watching tv time, LATE!

So what?

[Mister_Che]

So what?

Exactly, whats so bad about them finally getting attention?

[Huber]

They were on Leno and Conan right from the start. Nothing changed. They just added some better song-writing to the music, and they gained more acceptance.

[pyro1214]

sh**, i noticed not a single person that i saw had "before i forget this", man that song is awesome! pulse of the maggots is awesome too tho !!

[TheSubtleArts]

i just saw slipknot on the 9th, ive seen 6 slipknot shows and this one was by far the best. bigger, longer set and they seemed alot more talented because of the new music probably. the only thing that sucked is that they didnt play Eyeless, and that Chris had like a broken leg or something and was just standing by his set the whole time or hobbling around a bit

[Huber]

He was off the European tour. Chris that is.

[Sleeper]

Does anyone know how he broke it?

You are confusing "Get This" with "Despise" or "Me Inside". Those two songs have similar features to Purity.

It pisses me off sometimes when people say "they suck" or "all they do is yell and swear" because they don't really look deep inside the lyrics to understand where they are coming from. All I want to say is keep an open mind about music because you may miss their message.

I've already seen his solo on the DVD. It was pretty awesome.

[podbassist]

ok, next question, cuz the first one kind of died

whats their best remix?

i'd say SPIT IT OUT (Overcaffeinated remix) on the Wait and Bleed single

I would have to sgree with you on that one

[The JoZ]

The Hyper remix of Spit It Out is better than the original IMO.

[Sleeper]

Yeh, I really like the remixes on that cd. The terry date version of Wait and bleed was great.

Wellll I just got home from our leg of the Subliminal Verses tour. Sorry, but this concert was better than Metallica and Godsmack without a doubt :D

All That Remains opened up...they played, I dunno, 5 or 6 songs...none of which I know the names to...well, they played one that's got a video on Launch, but the name escapes me right now. Short set, but good.

Shadows Fall was up next, and things got busted wide open, including my mouth...ok that's a bit of an overstatement, but I did bleed from my tongue a bit after getting smacked around in a pit during "The Power of I and I". Their setlist included "The Power of I and I", "Inspiration on Demand", "Enlightened by the Cold", "Destroyer of the Senses", two or three other songs I don't remember, and they closed with "What Drives The Weak". Very good show, Brian was very energetic on stage...he spun around often, and with his dreads, looked like a freaking helicopter was about to take off.

Lamb of God was up next, and they definetly tore the house down, breaking right out with "Laid to Rest", followed by "Hourglass". Randy definetly took a little time out to remind us that they were basically home (Since this concert was in Hampton, VA, and they are from Richmond). They also played "Now You've Got Something To Die For"...several other older songs...and closed out with "Black Label". No Wall of Death, but there was a pretty big pit going.

Slipknot came on, and if the roof hadn't been blown off yet, they sure did it. "Prelude 3.0" played over the PA before they ripped into "The Blister Exists" for an opening track. I honestly don't really remember much of their track order, because I was occupied (see side note at the end) but I know they played a varied, and very good set...including, in no particular order, "Before I Forget", "Vermilion", "Duality", "Get This", "Disasterpiece", "The Heretic Anthem", "Left Behind", "Liberate", "Pulse of the Maggots", "The Nameless", "Spit It Out" (complete with patented Jump the f*ck up section), "Wait and Bleed" (complete with crowd singing of opening chorus, with Paul conducting), "Everything Ends" and of course, they ended with "Surfacing". I don't really think anyone could've asked them for a better set...they played old stuff, new stuff, and all of it was great stuff. I'm very glad I got to see them. I have to hand it to Chris though...as most probably know, Shawn isn't part of the tour anymore so he could be with his wife who's ill...so Chris had to go it alone in terms of extra percussion and backup vocals. He did a hell of a job by himself...and he even had a little help from Sid on like two songs (Surfacing being one) who grabbed a pair of sticks and started playing on Shawn's kit, which was still set up, and had his mask there, to symbolize their absent brother. And Chris' leg is still healing too, cause he left the stage with crutches...but still managed to move around on stage a bit without them. A for the band, and A+ to Chris for the extra effort.

So, I might not have exactly gotten my butt kicked in the pits, but I did my fair share...at least during the first three sets. During Slipknot's set...I was...for lack of a better term, a bodyguard to this nice young lady who wanted to have fun, but did not want to fall down and get trampled on. I told her I'd protect her, basically, and make sure she didn't fall. In the process, I was pretty close with her...and during one song, she even took it upon herself to...ah...do a little dirty dancing, if you catch my drift.

...The bad part about that was, however, a little later, she told me her husband was up in the stands. Ouch. Talk about a buzzkill...:upset:

...But married women aside, it was still a great night. I highly recommend anyone who can catch them on this tour to do so. You won't be disappointed.

[Sleeper]

Wow thanks for the review, Sounds like a amazing concert. I find it cool that sid did some percussion.

[Dr3w182]

ye man it does sound better then the one i went to lol cuz the lead singer from...i think unearth lost his voice...NO killswitch Engage's lead singer lost his voice so ye but when SlipKnoT got on stage it was total [Sic]ness man...lol i nearly died in the mosh pits cuz im small haha and my friend got crushed by a fat guy that was surfing...the best part was when corey told us to get the **** down and jump the **** up when he was singing SPIT IT OUT...and raising our middle fingers in the air...amazing...never forget that concert lol it was WAYYYYYYYYYYYYYY better then goin to a Raptors basketball game LOL

[The JoZ]

...What the hell are you talking about?

As far as I know, neither Unearth nor Killswitch were supporting Slipknot...

Lamb of God and Shadows Fall were doing the whole tour...All that Remains was an opener for part, and Trivium is doing some later shows...

[Dr3w182]

...What the hell are you talking about?

Lamb of God and Shadows Fall were doing the whole tour...All that Remains was an opener for part, and Trivium is doing some later shows...

they were opening up for them...well i saw my show in toronto

[The JoZ]

...It wasn't the Subliminal Verses tour then, because I just looked, and neither Unearth nor Killswitch are at/were at any of these dates.

[stone sour]

umm what are some good unreleased songs? are the downloadable group effort songs good?

[Dr3w182]

...It wasn't the Subliminal Verses tour then, because I just looked, and neither Unearth nor Killswitch are at/were at any of these dates.

opps lol my bad then :D but same thing their performancez are the best

[stone sour]

I cant wait i will see them on the 13th!!!!!!! does joey do random drum solos or does he do it at every show

[Huber]

It's on the set list, so I'm assuming every show.

[The JoZ]

Oh yeah, Joey's drum solo...

I think it was better than the one on the Disasterpieces DVD....it still wasn't, like, "OMG BEST DRUM SOLO EVAR!" kind of good, but yeah. The platform did alot more spinning this time, and he seemed to vary it up a bit more than just a ton of double bass...

[Jom]

Poor JoZ, good thing her husband didn't come down and bash you in the face :p

[The JoZ]

I highly doubt her husband even knew what I looked like from where he was sitting.

I'm sure he probably saw me hanging out w/ her, and stuff...but yeah.

Even if he DID see me, the chances that he'd find me after the show were slim to none.

Oh wait, I mean, none, since he didn't :p

[alcoholocaust]

Damnit. I can't go see them this Saturday in Houston. :upset:

[TheSubtleArts]

i thought The Nameless was an amazing song live. and i cant believe theyve never played Everything Ends live before this tour, i thought that song was great too. Disasterpiese and Sic are always my live favorites though.

[alcoholocaust]

Actually I can go but all the floor tickets are taken. Not sure if I want to sit through the whole show.

[Separate]

Ah, Im hoping they're going to visit Norway in the nearest future.
Im dying to see The Nameless, Before I Forget and Everything Ends live.

I wish they would play Skin Ticket, Scissors and Prosthetics. I've never seen those live. I've heard Prosthetics live, thats it.

[Sleeper]

Spit it out and Liberate seem to my favorites live.

[WishYouWereHere]

I've heard many Slipknot songs. Joey hasn't impressed me, I'm sorry. All of you seem to love him, but I don't see it. He's good, yeah, and he works with the band, but he's nothing to write home about. Plus I HATE his drum sound. Slipknot's production in genreal is really bad sounding. Maybe they'd be a better band if they lost 4 or 5 members, tuned their guitars up a bit, and starting writing about some different things. (KoRnered? :lol: )





I laughed the first time I heard Pulse of the Maggots. The solo is so random and unmelodic, and just all around bad.



wow youre stupid :lol:

[XNeon]

wow youre stupid :lol:

Ill say his post made me laugh so hard.

[Huber]

I guess I can understand a few of the guys opinions, but no justification, and how can a band get better while taking away something? Maybe it sounds better without, but that can go for everything you add to music, not just the seemingly extraneous members in Slipknot. I'm so tired of that statement.

If I knew anything about guitar solos, I might just make a statement about the Pulse of the Maggots comment, but that'd be stupid of me. I wouldn't know a good guitar solo from a jar mayonaise. If I said anything I'd get thrown a bunch of random guitar lingo and feel lame. What I can say though, is that I enjoyed it.

How come people always come in here and talk about how we praise Joey anyways? I don't remember ever praising him, or any of the regular people in this thread for that matter. It's just a false statement.

[XNeon]

I think korn has a good drummer. But because the rest of the members are not that great it makes him look kinda bad.

No offence to korn just using as an example.

[BeastontheBass]

they were touring with Unearth and Killswitch right before they started touring with Lamb of God and Shadows Fall. man i would have traded anything to see them with Lamb of God since i never really listened to Killswitch before the concert(although i now consider them one of the very very few hardcore bands i like). and i believe my shirt says that it was the Subliminal Verses tour.

[Huber]

Your shirt would just be telling a huge fat lie then.

[TheSubtleArts]

yea that was just a canadian tour i believe, i forget what it was called exactlly, but it definetly was not the sublimital versus tour.

[The JoZ]

How come people always come in here and talk about how we praise Joey anyways? I don't remember ever praising him, or any of the regular people in this thread for that matter. It's just a false statement

Probably because the Drum forum has had numerous people go in there and be like "omfg joey jordison is the best evar!" and he's clearly not.

I've said it before and I'll say it again. Joey (and the rest of Slipknot) are overrated by idiot maggots, and underrated by elitist pricks.

[Sleeper]

Joey has been my inspiration for my drumming, But like The_Joz said, There fans overate them.

[Huber]

I agree whole heartedly. He's a fine drummer, but not the best in any way, and certaintly not the worst.

[Sleeper]

Hes amazing IMO, He pulls alot of things drummers cant.

[The JoZ]

Hes amazing IMO, He pulls alot of things drummers cant.

Agreed, but by that token, there are drummers who do things he probably can't...

See Danny Carey or Mike Portnoy :D

[Sleeper]

Oh yeh, Definitly.

[Dude3]

For me, I don't think Slipknot has much talent. Joey is the most talented of the group, and is a pretty **** good drummer.
Although, Slipknot is just one of those bands where the talent dosen't matter to me. I still like the overall sound of the music that they make.

[Thor]

Hes amazing IMO, He pulls alot of things drummers cant.
yeah, i used to think that. then i bought a dimmu borgir cd and fell in love with nick barker, who i am still convinced is the best drummer ever. if anyone wishes to change my mind, please try.

[Huber]

yeah, i used to think that. then i bought a dimmu borgir cd and fell in love with nick barker, who i am still convinced is the best drummer ever. if anyone wishes to change my mind, please try.

He does have strengths. He can do things better than some can, and it goes the other way too. Just because you hear another drummer, and he sounds better, doesn't mean it totally blows away Joey. There doing different things.

If Joey plays quad licks fills all the time really well, then the guy from Dimmu does like, amazingly precise blast beats (I haven't heard much Dimmu, this is just an example) that sound cooler than Joey's fills, that doesn't mean he's blatantly better than Joey.

I'm not saying either drummers are better than eachother, but this same thing goes on and on in this thread about Joey and it's really ****ing old. It's as bad as the Lars conversations in the Metallica thread (and that's saying something). Arguing over the same thing over and over with someone isn't going to change there mind obviously, as it never has before.

Let's not make another 10 page Joey argument.

[JoeOwnzUall]

do nothing/bitchslap is like good song

[TheSubtleArts]

do nothing/bitchslap is like good song

i wish paul would do some bass lines like that in newer music.

[The JoZ]

i wish paul would do some bass lines like that in newer music.

Yeah, that would be cool.

Hell, I'd be happier if he played more fills like he did in "Vermilion". If you listen, there are a couple of cool bass fills here and there...and the bass fill on "Surfacing" is neat too.

Paul said he often chooses to lay back and just form a solid rhythm foundation...and that's cool, but yeah...he's got the skill, he should use it a bit more heh

[pimporama]

i'll :chug: 2 slipknot! :thumb:

[The JoZ]

So I've been listening to MFKR, and I just heard Confessions in it's entirety.

Honestly, that might be the best bassline Paul has ever written. Alot of people give him credit for Do Nothing/Bitchslap, but honestly, Confessions >>> Do Nothing.

If you ever doubted Paul before, or Do Nothing didn't convince you...go listen to this song. I was blown away.

[JoeOwnzUall]

confessions is good to but i still like do noting. its badass how they but funk and jazz it to it

[KoRn1234]

does any one have the first slipknot cd mfrk i was reading that they only made 1000 copys but you can get it off e-bay for like $350

[Huber]

My friend got lucky and bought his for 24.99

But yeah, they're up their I think

[KoRn1234]

does slipknot sing a song called blackheart i was downloading music and i found a slipknot song called blackheart and i cant find that song on any of there cds and i want to learn the bass intro

Not to my knowledge, Prolly some other bands song labled slipknot. There are million of files like that on file sharing programs.

[Dude3]

Hey guys! I'm leaving for the Slipknot Concert in Tampa, in about 15 minutes.
I can't wait. What should I expect. I am not in the pit, but I have good seats. I'm bringing my friend, and my dad is coming too.

Is the atmosphere in the seats really crazy? My dad dosen't like that type of music. Do you reccommend that he sits with us, or should he escape the craziness, and stand in the rest area?
Thanks :thumb:

[Sleeper]

Expect Corey to say at least 60,000 swear words lol

[King_Karl]

I'm jealous :(

[Dude3]

Don't mind the cursing or drugs that will be there. Will the heavyness be to much for him? I know, its a really stupid question.

[King_Karl]

They aren't very heavy.

[Sleeper]

I know what its like to drag parents along, Its a bitch but oh well. The heaviness should really bother him, Slipknot are way better live than they used to be. They have a tighter sound that more people like.

[Sleeper]

They aren't very heavy.
Well compared to there Iowa days, No. But they can still deliver a hell of show.

[Dude3]

yea, its a pain. I'm aloud to go alone with a friend, but none of my friends are aloud to go alone. So, he'll be ok?

[Sleeper]

Should be, Unless hes goes into the mosh and starts punching. :lol:

Has anyone purchased the subliminal verses dvd promo? Best buy has a deal where if you buy Vol3 you get it free.

[King_Karl]

What's on the DVD?

[TheSubtleArts]

What's on the DVD?

live videos of pulse of the maggots, duality, and wait & bleed. its not worth it to buy the cd again for three live songs imo. ill just wait untill the new dvd comes out

[Sleeper]

In the cd case of Volume 3, Behind the cd. What is that image?

[relliK]

Yeah, that would be cool.

Hell, I'd be happier if he played more fills like he did in "Vermilion". If you listen, there are a couple of cool bass fills here and there...and the bass fill on "Surfacing" is neat too.

Paul said he often chooses to lay back and just form a solid rhythm foundation...and that's cool, but yeah...he's got the skill, he should use it a bit more heh

The bass is alot easier to hear on the video version of the song rather than the album version.Which reminds me..........

slipknot-metal.com is giving away the songs in that special disk 2 thing.They've been released in the past, but if you havent heard them, go get them ****s.Im really digging that Vermilion version.

[timskold214]

Is it just me or is there a lot of anthem songs on the subliminal verses album?

[badtaste]

Does anyone else feel the case of "Rotten apples spoiling the basket" in regard to the fans of Slipknot? I do.

[King_Karl]

The 8 - 12 year old 'Maggots' annoy me, because then lots of people think the band are stupid and childish, which is untrue.

[wozser]

Almost all the songs off first album would be in there (well first album not including mate feed kill repeat). Iowa I thought was a really bad album. The new album has some really interesting riffs. Welcome and the first song (i forget the name) are both really good. Think coreys lyrics have gone down hill a bit for some of the new stuff though.

[Separate]

I like all Slipknot songs..

[metalcritter666]

The 8 - 12 year old 'Maggots' annoy me, because then lots of people think the band are stupid and childish, which is untrue.
ditto.

[Daven]

i like the self titled album and iowa but volume 3... wasnt that good as the others

[The JoZ]

Does anyone else feel the case of "Rotten apples spoiling the basket" in regard to the fans of Slipknot? I do.

Yes.

Slipknot has what I like to call "Too many idiot fans Syndrome". They have too many rabid, moronic, fanboyish fans who go around proclaiming them to be the best of the best, and defend them without any logical background...and then people bash the group and fans of the band, even though all fans are not nearly as bad as those fans.

[relliK]

Its a shame really.Slipknot has always had a certain depth to them, but most of their fans cant see it.Which is why Vol.3 wasnt as well recieved as it could have been.

[exup]

Yeah, the kiddo's just want noise as hard as possible
Iowa was full of that.
Voll 3 is more complicated and better quality.So i like it more.

[heavy metal kid]

Vol 3= quality

other slipknot album=noise

[Sleeper]

other slipknot album=noise

Which one?

[heavy metal kid]

the self-tittled(altough is one of the most original albums)

[Sleeper]

So the self tittled is original, but noisy?

[King_Karl]

I like all of the albums. None of them are just 'noise'.

[Thor]

Vol 3= quality

other slipknot album=noise
Please find yourself a tall building to jump out of.

[Six Foot Revolver]

Vol 3= quality

other slipknot album=noise
All albums are noise otherwise you could not hear them :p

[banana_man]

most people that listen to slipknot are pubecent(sp??) boys trying to vent anger...i for one liked them cuz they were crazy hard, but since vol. 3 theyve changed alot....i still like them but now for entirly different reasons

[Lethalj]

Do any of you guys have some sound clips of playing any of Slipknots songs? If so post some, Im sure people would liek to hear it!

[willis2441]

[PepsiMetal]

I dont think slipknot's songs would sound anywhere as good as original unless you have few drummers, a guitarist, and some crazy vocalist.

[King_Karl]

I can play a few but have no recording gear.

[Huber]

Joey isn't that hard to cover. Just build some stamina.

[King_Karl]

Corey is hard to cover.

[willis2441]

hahahahahahahahahahahahaha try covering people=****,the heretic anthem,(sic), and plenty others!

[Shattered_Future]

At my drummers bday party, him and me started playing Duality...
Just a guitar and drums.
Then he stopped halfway through cause he got tired...

I did NOT like Vol. 3...(dont flame me for this) but i think they really sold out on this one. They had a unique sound going for them, and they completely changed it so they could get more fans.

I personally think their S/T one was the best...it was the most original at the time.

[PepsiMetal]

I did NOT like Vol. 3...(dont flame me for this) but i think they really sold out on this one. They had a unique sound going for them, and they completely changed it so they could get more fans.

Did I miss the interview where they admitted to changing their style because they want more fans? Because as far as we can tell, they could have changed it because they were tired of old stuff. :thumb:

[Shattered_Future]

^ oh...it just seemed like that they changed it for more fans.

I dont think the masks really go with the music now though...a guy with a death mask singing to an acoustic song just doesnt feel right :lol:

[King_Karl]

I think Vol.3 is the best album. Why? It's just a much more altogether balanced effort. If anything I think they have concentrated the sound, not abandoned it.
