Are we sick of Slipknot yet?

New video just released 2 days ago, first single off new album, album not released for 3 months though


Got to say, don't mind this one, and video is cool

Corey seems to have some major male pattern baldness going on, as well as a few hundred cheeseburgers since the last album

 

I like the song. They were never a band that I really ever delved into the back catalog of so basically I just know the singles, which this sounds fairly similar to. I'll probably listen to this track infrequently and enjoy it.

It doesn't seem like a significant departure from their other songs I know.

 

I'm digging it!

 

@OP thread title.

Yes.

 

They gave me instant dhiarrea from beginning. So... Thanks for bringing them up!

 

It's fucking ridiculously awful, as is the entire band. "I'll never kill myself to save my soul..." Give me a fucking break.

 

Shitslop.

 

Haters gonna hate

 

It's not that I hate, I just never really enjoyed anything I listened to. Plus the whole mask thing is a bit whack. I heard some the guys used to throw up in their mask.

Yeah, real inspirational.

 

I also feel that hate is too strong of a word, though I also don't think VG was being completely serious. I do think they're terrible, but that's as far as my feelings go. Also, I know I've heard this melody somewhere before. Can't put my finger on it, however.

 

And face paint isnt?

 

If your whole gimmick is carnival and clowns, then no facepaint makes the least sense.

I only dig underground rap with facepaint, I think it's major lame in black metal.

 

One reason I've never seen Alestorm live is because they don't dress like pirates. They only sing about pirates, you gotta be pirates. Not a yellow shirt and shorts.

 

I once seen interview slipknot saying they use the masks as an emotional mask, so you can see their pains. I'm 31, I'm too old for that shit.

ICP on the other hand, they're just clowns.

 

I dont really remember Slipknot, they're blending in with all the other early 2000s nu-metal bands

When I think of them I cant help but ask myself if i'm down with the sickness ..but no, thats not them.
I put my finger into my eyes, its the only thing that slowly stops the aaache...was that slipknot?

 

I think many regard Slipknot's drummer as one of the best drummers in Metal.

 

I don't buy that they all have these horrible lives that they sing about. I think they just want to seem interesting, so they're trying to portray themselves as tortured, because of the tortured artist stereotype. I can't relate to this music at all. Why does everyone on HF love metal so much.

 

Edit I guess they have a new drummer. I was thinking of Joey Jordison

 

Q Strange said it best in one of his raps about when people try to sing about their lives and "keeping it real"

You think people wanna hear me rap about shit I really do
Yeah peep the single, I washed my balls today wooo!
Yeah that's really dope.. But nobody gives a shit
About what I do in every day life so I don't spit it!

When I was a kid I was always listening to rock and roll from Vietnam soundtracks, so that was my inspiration to liking metal. The first band I really got into was Metallica as you do when you're young. Then one day I got a heavy metal cd and Insane Clown Posse was on it and I fucking hated it with a passion! What's this fucken clown shit doing here!!

Well one day I actually listened to that song and I wa spoke damn, these dudes speak truth here. My mom went to get me a cd one day, someone had talked me into trying Sepultura, it wasn't there so I got a ICP cd. The next week I tried again at different shop, they didn't have it, I got another ICP cd and I was hooked in the underground, alternative rap.

Nowdays I listen to a lot of music. Country, rock, dance, metal, rap... Still only underground rap, still only alternative country, I prefer Death Metal over black metal, just the energy is enormous. I didn't like death metal until I saw my first gig which was... Skinless I think. It was just so unreal at the time lol I was like 17 or so.

 

I have nothing against metal or any style of music. I just don't like really bad music like what the radio plays. The only metal album I ever owned was Megadeth. The one with Symphony of Destruction on it. I just didn't really like it, though I didn't think it was bad, necessarily. I'm in a musical lull these days. Not much speaks to me. I still listen to my favorite songs from bands I've always listened to, but that's it. Just jaded, I guess.
