Innit, I mean, dude...they are awsome! They have these
wicked, well meaninful lyrics about how s**t life is and
they say the....*gasps*...f-word well many times! It's just
wicked! And, they wear these really wacky masks because they
are HARDCORE and they don't wanna be famous! That's why they
wear those masks, coz they are true to their people and they
aren't a commercialized pop band, innit!

*ahem*

(Sorry, I believe I've just wasted two minutes of my life
typing a very, er....pointless point. Or something.)

I'm not a Slipknot fan, but there's a part of me that still
likes that metal stuff I used to listen to in junior high. I
don't mind Slipknot that much, actually... I kind of like
''Wait and Bleed''. But they seem way too gimmicky, they're
a bit grating.

But I was listening to Master of Reality on the highway
earlier, and THAT'S how metal should be made, baby...
nu-metal doesn't have the magic.

The only Slipknot song worth a shit, ever, was 'Eyeless' -
the vibe when it hits the second chorus is perfect, insanity
on a cd. But yes, it's contrived, it's not big or clever,
but all things in their proper place and all that. The fans
are worse than the band, these kids thinking they're Satan
incarnate cause they have a t-shirt with a banal slogan on
it...

Eeeerrr....I think you'll find, if you actually bothered
reading my post, that I was being sarcastic.

This was brought up actually, because I was talking to a
Slipknot fan on msn who really did believe the wore the
masks because they were "hardcore" and didn't want to be
famous. Which, IMO, is rubbish-I think it's all a load of
hype personally.
I don't hate metal, though....I like some prgressive
bands like Emmerson, Lake and Palmer and even more, I like
Dream Theater.

Slipknot aren't sellouts really. As much as I want to call
them just that. But they have even admitted in interviews
that the only reason the make music is for the money...So
they aren't sellouts cause they were never really into
it...To me, they're like the backstreet boys of Metal...

fuck, who cares. cs2x, you maybe named after my first synth
aswell, but you dont half post some off topic crap. I used
to get all revved up against metalheads too when i was about
sixteen and used to listen to mogwai+gybe! all the time, and
then i realised that i was basically listening to fucking
post-metal (for want of a better term) anyway, so fuck it, i
just as well get my rocks off to slayer. as it happens i
dont think slipknot are 1 0.0000234 as extreme as some peopl
think they are anyway. Tell some little slipknot toddler to
go buy the new melt bannana release, really blow them away!

like, they are, but don't you get pissed off when you hear
metalheads slaggin the stuff which you listen to under the
catchall banner of 'dancemusic'? threads like these are just
a waste of time. why not talk about something useful
instead? like fucking genetic algorithms or something.

If you don't like it, don't bother replying. This was just a
thread that sprung to mind as I was talking to a fan, and it
wasn't so much against their music, rather the way fans seem
to think...ahh, fuck it. You can't do anything right
here....I give up....

actually quite like their masks and boiler suits look..an

it with the sound muted...a cheap badly made 2 minute horror
flick..you gotta love that :)

I have liked Slipknot for 3 years. Then I went to concert
with them half a year ago. Now I don't listen to them any
more. Not that I don't like them, but they just doesnt do
anything for me in the way like RDJ or BoC...

But Eyeless, Get This and eyeore still rock!

I like Slipknot, i like Aphex Twin. I also like loads of
other music. I don't judge one over the other as it all
depends on the person really.

I got the first Slipknot CD from 1996 last night, wow is it
odd to listen to.

I would like to gather slipknot in the trailer they grew up
in (undoubtedly they grew up together, in some sort of
backwards communal society, where sisters and brothers made
babies to sell for fun and profit.) and set fire to the
trailer and eat the burnt trailer.

i know.. but its 4 AM for fucks sake!
