I'll stop talking now I think.


("ignorance is bliss..." what the f*f**k was I thinking)



Sorry.

Aye. Why should people be allowed an opinion if they have no idea what they are talking about. I at least had the curtasy to listen to a couple of Radiohead albums before I decided it was boring unispired pap, other people should do the same.

I find it Ironic that the people that moan about Slipknot only being popular because of their image are also judging them on the same premise. Surely a band should be about the music. If you listen to something and don't like it fair enough, but don't slate the band and even the fans without even having any real reason to.

I listen to Slipknot, I've seen them live at a couple of festivals, I can understand why people both would and would'nt like them. Why can't others do the same.

End Rant.

You see thats what I h8 about prix like most of the people that have replied to this post. They don't know Sh** about them and so they say the first things that come to their heads.... i.e. 'they just wear masks to be cool' and 'if you put your head next to a train track you'd get slipknot'
You don't know crap all about them and dont give them a chance. Fine if you don't like that music but don't be such incompetent small minded wan*ers and make stuff up. It actually takes a hellava lot of talent to do what they do. Unlike crappy garage where all they do is say 'ENTER' over and over again. And all that stuffs made on computers. And R&B is just people talking about how many women they shagged and how much drugs they do tryna be cool. The reason Slipknot wear masks is because you don't need to see their expressions to understand their music. All they're giving you is their masks which is saying it doesn't matter who I am or what I look like. Its all about the music.

The only Slipknot part I like is the first Grind/Noisecore esque intro of People = ****. It all goes down-hill after that.

I prefer the delights of The Dillinger Escape Plan, Botch, Burnt by the Sun, Drowningman etc.

ignorance? moi?

Thats what you think.

If ignorance is bliss, then wipe the smile off my face.

**sighs** it is all real recordings...

What most people don't know is that the recordings which you hear of Slipknot are actually not Slipknot at all. Somebody accidently put a recording of somebody being violently sick from an archive file onto the first 10,000 copies of the album. It sold so well that they decided to repeat it again. The other Slipknot albums are actually just the same thing but reversed and chopped around a bit.
It is a little known fact that the recordings which were actually meant to be put on the album were neo-classical opera based around a pan-pipe orchestra, that Slipknot are nine camp Hungarian chefs, and that 'slipknot' in Hungarian actually means 'Really incredibly $hite and not worth wasting your hard-earned hearing on.

tell me this though: have you ever really listened to all of their songs? or have you heard just one and decided that you dont like it? or did you hear that from a friend? there is no way you have heard all of their songs and dont like any of them...
