[QUOTE]i loved how vol. 3 had some solos, but i was quite pissed at the fact that they didnt do any of those live on ozzfest.[/QUOTE]

sucks for you, when i saw em at Jagermeister they played em

[quote]do you feel slipknot sold out on there last cd[/quote]

No, they just didn't have the same drive as they did before. If I wasn't so pissed the day I was supposed to buy it (they day it came out) I would have gotten it, but I decided to get Chimaira's Impossibilty of Reason, instead. If you want something as intense as Iowa or the S/T, get that CD. You will not be dissapointed.

Doesn't it suck to be called maggots? Seriously, why not get into the grateful dead? Dead head sounds a lot better than maggot.


Oh and I like the older slipknot. Iowa's an all right cd.

What were you pissed about?

I liked Iowa better, it was less generic, and more pissed. That was something I definately needed back in '01, '02, and '03. Slipknot just doesn't seem to make their point with me unless they are majorly pissed. I guess it's something I'll have to get used to.

P.S.: I'm not a "maggot" by any means.

[QUOTE=relliK]What were you pissed about?[/QUOTE]

Finals day, my old girlfriend was talking sh[color=white]it[/color] about me, the elitist USS swimmers were talking down to me again...

That's why I got Impossibilty of Reason instead of Vol: 3.

I dont mind it.But Im not one to walk around refferening to myself as a maggot.People that do make me laugh.13 year olds.I also hate the "your not a real maggot"type of crap that they add on to it.They make up these stupid rules to being a maggot when in reality all a maggot is is a fan of the music.Its not meant to be a degrading term(well not in this case) so I dont care.I used to love older Slipknot,but the new album has strayed me away from it.Its currently in my cd player more often than anything else.

Oh I see,you needed some angry music to fit the mood.Gotcha :thumb:

In case some of you missed the Kimmel performance,www.robomuffin.com(haha..robomuffin)has the videos of the performances and interview.They are wma's so they are no bigger than 10MBs or so.It wont take long on 56gay.

[QUOTE=feedthegods666]ok, here it goes. MY OPINION!!!
Mick can come up with INSANELY AWESOME RIFFS. i mean, no one can deny that his riffs are the sh1t, but still...if you look at their tabs (someone else also said this i dont know how to do 2 quotes) theyre soooo simple. i mean, The Vermillion Part 2, that is so f*ckin easy to play. (sic) is all open strings, except the last note which is a bar chord on the first fret. and The Blister Exists sounds INSANE, but its just string bending on the thirteenth fret on the E. i mean, the riffs sound awesome, but theyre extremely simple to play. Mick is a CLEVER guitarist, but hes not a GOOD guitarist. ill give him that. dont get me wrong, SlipKnot is my favorite band of all time, but i (unlike most "little slipknot followers") look at the band with REALITY in mind. i know there are MANY bands more talented than slipknot.
well thats my 2 cents!! :thumb:[/QUOTE]
too true. slipknot are my favourite band too, and mick is good but has simple stuff. thankyou.

[QUOTE=lunchbox320]Hey dudes um i just want to bring to your attention how much that slipKnot sucks and im gunna tell u a few things that will tell u of the fags with the maskes

I hate you :angry:

I've been reading alot more about Slipknot lately, and the dude who runs black-goat.com had this to say in regards to Slipknot and genre

"1.1.1. What genre does Slipknot belong to?
Hard to explain, but let's put it this way: they're a band that fuses elements taken from hardcore (ie. aggressive vocals, heavy chunks of distortion), goregrind (ie. blast beats, gore imagery), and modern rock. They're not metal, and they're certainly not plain hard rock either."

What do other Slipknot fans think about this? Personally I was quick to just call them metal, but maybe not? Alot of people say they are Nu metal, but I don't agree with that either

Just want some opinions, and if your'e going to be a dick about it, kindly f[color=white]u[/color]ck off now.

[QUOTE]I hate you [/QUOTE]

just statin my opinion man

That is actually on every Slipknot fansite.It wasnt written by Michael(they guy who runs black-goat)himself.I also dont agree with them being put in the Nu Metal catagory.But whatever.They are alot more metal oriented than the bands they get lumped up with in the nu metal genre.You can hear more metal influence in their music than you hear in Korn or whatever.Im prolly gonna get bashed for this,but I think Slipknot does pass for metal.

[QUOTE=Drum_and_Bass_Guy89]just statin my opinion man[/QUOTE]

Its not that I disagree with you.Its just that it doesnt hurt to take a little extra time on your spelling and to use punctuation.That kind of stuff hurts my eyes....and brain.

Well, it doesn't matter if it's on every fansite, I just quoted it from the one I have been reading :p

Also, another question...are there any real standout songs for Craig and Sid? It seems like they are, more often than not, doing nothing on stage...

Not really.Craig used to just do samples back then.He has a keyboard and grand piano now so he is alot more present on the new album.I guess Danger-Keep Away is his stand out track because its mostly just keyboard.Sid does some stuff,more on s/t and Vol.3 than Iowa(which he was rarely used at all).He is actually pretty decent.His solo in Disasterpiece shows it.But if they let him stand out on their albums,it would sound too much like Limp Bizkit or something.

Edit:Come to think of it,Slipknot songs would be to plain without the crazy sounds that sid and Craig incoorperate.They actually do alot for the band.

yeah at ozzfest sid didnt seem to do anything... for people=sh*t he did some turntable, and a few other songs. but other then that he got on clowns drum kit, and jumped into the crowd. Craig just stands there....

wtf man you are a ****ing moron, havent you heard the shredding in pulse of the maggots? no musical talent u are a wanker, i bet you havent even listened to any of their songs, and i do listen to slayer, and i have to say that i like slipknot alot more than slayer, i find slayers songs very boring at times but with slipknot theres a wide variety of music, especially in The Subliminal Verses, you are an idiot mate, i cant even be bothered to wreck u majorley because u r not worth it, ON ANOTHER NOTE

can anyone make me a mick avatar? i really want one and my picture editor is playing up

All Slipknot discussion here.No more Knot threads.Anyway,what do you guys think about Vol.3?What's your fav. song off of it?

I personally love that cd.One of the few cd's I can listen to from top to bottom without having to change tracks or fast forward.It has really grabbed my attention away from s/t and Iowa.I think its by far their best.Opinions?

I agree with you that it is a good album but i do not think that it is better than the debut. I think the first album is really about the people they are and describes the emmotion behind their music. However, the third album sees corey singing about similar stuff with a less aggressive tone to it and acoustic guitars added. I do feel the solos were a nice touch though. Fav song would be three nil, reason being it emulates the quality of the first album. :thumb:

alright, here goes
the new album is good, dont get me wrong, but theyre making a BIG BIG mistake going even more mainstream than they already were. if you go to their website ([url]www.black-goat.com[/url]) and go to song meanings, then go to heretic anthem. you'll see Corey said he doesnt give "one rat f[COLOR=White]u[/COLOR]ck about what the radio thinks. then one album later NO SWEARS, MTV FRIENDLY, MTV FRIENDLY MUSIC VIDEO...what?! i just dont get it, kind of contradictin themselves there...

Yea bt i still love slipknot, but too back you up corey said he hated the way korn had a softer approach but yet come there next album they follow the same pattern, so again he is a hypocritical person.

yah, really

but Jon Davis is my hero, so...i love him... :D

Maybe he still doesnt give a rat fuk about radio.I think it was more of a growing up album rather than an attempt at mainstream success.Wouldnt you say their previous singles from Iowa and s/t kinda followed the "NO SWEARS, MTV FRIENDLY, MTV FRIENDLY MUSIC VIDEO"?For the most part yes.Its not like they went in and recorded John Denver's next album or anything.Vermilion pt.1 and 2 have simular meanings to Prosthetics and Iowa.Its just done in a much more mature manner.People will grow out of Iowa and s/t soon.Vol.3's maturity gives it a longer run amoung people.It has a much better long term effect than their previous work.

Am going to see the Slipknot and Slayer tour of the UK soon. it should be good. Anyone else going?
