For all the people who are like “screw slipknot and listen to children of bodom.” Let me TELL YOU SOMETHING! C.O.B’s lead singer sounds like a fag, who can’t sing on his life, who makes a attempt to scream. And why blame slipknot because they use percussion. Look at C.O.B with a
stupid little keyboard trying to mimic them. How the
hell is C.O.D is considered original metal? They sound like
gothic freaks. Slipknot actually came from freakin America! Their singer
will never sound like Corey, and Corey can sing and scream, and not just do a whiny scream through a whole song. Truth is people don’t want to listen to the same slayer, and
Metallica songs over and over again, they are far more repetitive than slipknot. And of course some people have a life and don’t want to listen to black metal devil crap. It doesn’t matter if Slipknot is metal or nu-metal, they are Slipknot and
will continue further down the line than those old death metal bands.
1. Slipknot isn’t death metal, black metal, etc. Or any type of stereotype metal
2. Slipknot is TALENTED! Let’s have you try and
pull of their sound, 9 members doesn’t mean they can’t play, you try to coordinate this many people at a time for a song, let alone one song.
3. The masks aren’t for trying to pull off an ego; it is a form of expression for each member of the band.
4. They aren’t Satanists, and if you want more information, then look it up
5. They don’t give out an
emo message trying to make you hurt yourself, the
music’s purpose is to empower you
6. If you dislike them, then
fine, but at least be respectful
7. If you think they
suck since they are mainstream and too
popular, let’s see how worthy all your little underground bands are. I’m sure they won’t ever reach at many concerts, fans, or credit as much as Slipknot has.
