you see thats made me happy that Tiltawhirl has agreed with me on something. And I don't mean him bashing his head on the bin takes talent, he just does that for the show, and it's fun to watch, but the way he plays his drums is really good. If you watch him up closes on the Slipknot DVD, he's really good at moving to the right drums as he has like 6 and 1 solid bin which he hits with a metal pipe to make a really good sound for some songs. You can't have the main drummer doing that or making that sound, so you need clown to do it.

I understand that you say they have talent in abundance, and it takes loads of balls to do what they do.

But that's like saying a guy who sits on his arze all day reading the newspaper has lots of talent, and it's a really hard thing to...erm, read the newspaper.

You see? Although you think they DO have loads of talent; I base my thought, not from a 2Pac fan, but from a geneal lover of good music.

Beleive me I read an interview in Kerrang with Slipknot just before they struck it 'big', I know what they're all about and to be honest they're a big joke. Apparently one member never talks because he has too much rage and anger inside him.....excuse me while I explode with laughter. They also said they don't care about image and that's why they wear the masks....yeah great one, that's the main reason their music sells, because of their image. They're like Kiss for the year 2000.

What so smashing his head against a bin in time to some guitars and moshing on stage takes loads of talent?

It takes a hellava

That's one thing i'll agree with you on, the way Corey changes his voice mid song takes talent. Infact I think he's one of the only members who actually posesses talent.

What I love is this:

"2Pac is dead, cherish his music and respect him by buying hs music. Oh, and this album that he never released.

Oh and this one too, and err, this one over here as well."

What a load of bullsheeeeeeeeet.

No I haven't got specially trained ears but I love their music so much, I listen to it constantly at work and home. Every time is different, because what I do is listen to say the bass in one song, then listen to the song again but just concentrate on the percussion or such so I can hear the music from different ways. . . if you see what I mean.

From my dads point of view ( and he's a proffesional sessionman) he says and I quote " You need to look beyond the masks and characaters of the people to what drives the bands, good drum, bass and strong vocals does this. Slipknot posses the lot and have got the highest stage presence energy, I've ever seen live. They sell out at every show to maximum capacity so they must be doing something right. I don't like Slipknot but from a proffesionals point of view, they posses great talent. Sure they use lots of gimmicks like masks but at the end of the day, you need to broaden your mind really think about what they're doing"

Lets get this straight, when I said that thing earlier about 2 pac has no talent and all he does is talk about how many women he 'screws' and how much drugs they do, I was being scarastic.

But I was doing what all you people do. I spurted out loadsa things that are completely unfounded. Just because I don't like him, I made up all that stuff to see how you people that like him reacted. Because thats what you do with Slipknot, just because you don't like them or understand them or know their characters or meanings, you spurt out stupid things.

Tiltawhirl just constantly says things like ' banging his head against his drum is hardly making him a musician'. But why the **** can't you understand that what they're doing takes **** loadsa talent. No one can can form a band of 9 people and sychronize instruments like they can.

I just can't get across to you that they do have talent even if they shout and you can't really understand their words. It takes a hellava voice to do what corey does, none of you can do that. You'll say that you can but if you try, it's impossible.
