A band that was kinda good in It's early days. Their fans ae mostly refered to as ''maggots''. Slipknot has become a sellout and corey taylor thinks that only his opinions and political views matter. They have a lot of ''bu hu depression wahhh'' kind of shit and It's really annoying.
Even I was a huge maggot 4 years ago but then I realized what SK has become. Shit. Glad I became a different metalhead otherwise I would have caught earcancer.

Me: Hey dude, do you listen to metal?
Him: Yeah dude of course.
Me: Name 5 of your favourite bands.
Him: I only have one.
Me: Really? Which one is it?
Him: Slipknot. They are the best band of all time and everyone that says otherwise should go back to their shitty ass pop. Corey is such a good person and I saw a video on yt where he owned fred durst. HE IS SO EPIC.
Me: I think I have ear cancer now. Bye.

When a person (mostly homosexual) makes a slipknot out of cat shit, and let’s it ferment and dry until it’s rock solid. The aroma of the fermented cat shit kills you before the slipknot dose. And I’m most cases everyone around.
