[QUOTE=Follow The Reaper]I never said they were sellouts, [B]except for that one time[/B].[/QUOTE]

...?

One time to many, yeah?

Slipknot was a lower down band for me except for maybe 8 songs top but the last 2 cds put out by slipknow totally blow me away,, and the fact that they solo on their new one gives them a whole new respect from me. I think slipknots slight change of style was for the better and they pulled it off withought mistake!

personally not a slipknot fan. they are nothing new or special, the rythm section is average and the guitars sound too distorted. not saying they are s*** cos the band has potential(talent wise) but it would be nice to see some original music being released. it seems all so called metal bands(with a few exceptions ie tool n dream theater) today are the same old screamo stuff and lyrics consist of death and f***. but hey what ever makes you millions of dollars a year is a **** good job

[QUOTE=PepsiMetal]I dont see why people make a big deal out of this selling out. As long as they still make kickass music, I could care less that they changed their style. We listen to music for entertainment not because they stay true to their music and such.

Although like most people said, slipknot has been selling good from the start, so they just continued selling.[/QUOTE]
And it's not like Slipknot was really "tr00" in the first place.

Anyways, now that I look back on Iowa, it's a lot better than it used to be.

Craig

Listen to all of the weird intros, I'm pretty sure that is all of Craig's doing.

Well besides Intros like actual songs...I know he plays a sample here and there on some songs but where is a song where he is heard more often...

He does a good deal of stuff in Vermilion if I am not mistaken.

Really? I've only heard his piano stuff from like Duality and that one song at the end of the CD (cant remember the name right now), and all of that screaming and stuff is Sid ain't it? Sid always seems to take all the good places for sampling lol

The band really doesn't need Craig at all, his mask just happens to look really cool. :lol:

He does have a cool mask but im asking about his sampling cause I have this dream that me and my friend would make a sampling and dj duet cause i kinda wanna get into sampling but the only band i know that uses sampling is Slipknot...and Linkin park doesnt count...

Well Linkin Park does have better than sampling than Slipknot, whether you want to admit it or not.

There are too many slipknot bashers on musicianforums.

Howdy everyone. Has Paul switched to Ibanez? I saw a pic without his usually corvette (I think), it was a orange-brown looking bass. Concert was Ozzfest, I think.

[QUOTE=masterchief]There are too many slipknot bashers on musicianforums.[/QUOTE]

Well, you could understand why Slipknot would be bagged. And the 'Maggots' aren't helping out the cause to see Slipknot recognised as a decent band. I wish we had a system of labelling the 13 year old kids from the ... decent fans?

/\ totally, I'm so sick of going around forums like this and being hassled by a 13 year old who thinks he knows everything about whatever band is being talked about. Maybe we need an entrance exam to all forums.. "Question 1. ArE SlIpKNot Da ShIZNiT YoU HaRDcORe BitCH?". Perhaps something like that would work? Anyway, looking very much forward to catching the full line up once again at Download next year. They seemed to sorely miss Clown this year. Was nice to see a band so openly care about each other.
