Slipknot...?

[HigherTomorrow]

Since we are discussing Slipknot, I feel this is appropriate.
Honestly, I don't know much about Slipknot. From what I've heard, they are okay.

Haha! Thank you, you just made my day!

I'm glad I could. That video always manages to make me laugh- I can't imagine how funny I would find it if I actually listened to Slipknot in the first place. The band members laughing in the background makes the video for me.

I lost it when he put on the hat

Can't stand them. Can't stand the entire nu-"metal" genre to be honest, which gives it the dubious honor of being one of only two musical genres I have absolutely nothing good to say about.

What's the other, as a matter of interest?

OT: Well I don't particularly feel strongly towards liking or hating them. I liked them a lot at first but since then I've gotten slightly different musical tastes. I wouldn't turn it off if someone else was playing it, but it's not lined up first on my playlist either.

 

[CK76]

I liked their first album.

 

[Soxafloppin]

I have found myself tapping my foot to some of there songs.

I've only heard there most popular songs i havent been interested enough to dig deeper.

 

[Ironic Pirate]

I perfer these guys:

Accept for the prefer part, as I've never heard Slipknot.

 

[dragonslayer32]

i love them. their music it great to work-out to.

 

[Blackality]

I have no reason to listen to them since there is people like At The Gates, Arch Enemy and MESHUGGAH making music.

 

[JMV]

They're great for a nu-metal band. And that's an offense, by the way.

 

[Hurr Durr Derp]

Can't stand them. Can't stand the entire nu-"metal" genre to be honest, which gives it the dubious honor of being one of only two musical genres I have absolutely nothing good to say about.

What's the other, as a matter of interest?

R&B.

Note that I don't mean to say that there's nothing good about those genres. just that if there is, I've never heard it.

 

[Sean Strife]

I loved them when I was in middle school... now I can't stand them.

 

[CobraX]

Slipknot is an example of true musical genious and anyone who says otherwise deserve to be slapped upside the head
Snuff, Vermillion, Psychosocial and Duality are among some of their best <3

Slipknot is the worst metal band I've heard......OW! I didn't think you would really slap me!

 

[Jekken6]

I like quite a bit of their stuff. Not the best, but quite enjoyable for me.

 

[AVATAR_RAGE]

They ain't the best or the worst band of all time. They have some good songs granted but in the same token some ba ones.

Though I must add that after watching some live footage of the band they are deffinately one I would like to see live.

 

[omega 616]

It's funny how people are saying it's bland and there not that talented, yet I listen to there music and think exactly the same.

Metallica, Iron maiden, black sabbath etc all boring and bland to me, of course they have some songs I think are decent, good maybe but overall I don't think there anything special.

This thread is just asking for a flame war.

On topic. I like them, most of there song have a great energy/feel about them and they make me feel better, after a long frustrating day I listen to SK and I feel more relaxed.

 

[kingcat1]

Eliteist metalheads like you are everthing wrong with metal right now.

 

[lee1287]

More popular in the 90s-00s right? They were good. Stoen sour also. Snuff is a greatsong.

 

[godevit]

Since i saw king crimson was mentioned why are you still talking about slipknot?

 

[Samuel Cook]

I like them, 'All hope is gone' is my favourite album, although everyone else disagrees..

 

[DVS Storm]

I love all of their albums. I can perfectly understand if someone doesn't like them though. Still I don't understand the people who say that the newest album is something you can hear on a pop channel. Same with "they won grammy's=sellout=mainstream=shit"-people. I you don't like a band then you don't like it.
