Where Has SlipKnot Gone?
Okay, so recently I heard SlipKnot’s new song, Psychosocial. When I first heard about SlipKnot finally making a new album, I was uberly excited. I screamed at the Wikipedia page I was on. I was really hoping it would be more like their old stuff and less like their new.
Now, don’t get me wrong, the Subliminal album was good. I loved it. But seriously, SlipKnot’s older stuff just can’t be beaten. Back then, Corey Taylor’s voice was like, godly. No debate. Now it’s fucked up because he screamed wrong.
Anyway, back to Psychosocial, as I was saying, hoping it would be more like the older albums. NO. It was even less than the older albums and still less than the Subliminal album. They don’t even look scary anymore.
I mean, what the fuck kind of Mask are you wearing, Corey?
What the fuck is that? It’s shit, compared to this
Their songs just aren’t catching me as much anymore. I fell in love with the violence and brutality in SlipKnot’s songs. They were Mosh Pit worthy. But now, there’s no decent tune pumping for kids to beat the shit out of each with.
THIS is SlipKnot:
“I Don’t Like A Fucking Thing, Music Sucks Dick, Suck The Snot End Of The Tip Of My Prick” = win.
Seriously, listen to Corey’s voice. Gold. Joey’s drums. Gold. The guitars. Gold.
THAT is a SlipKnot song. This is what they should have stayed like. But nooo, they came out with this:
“I Did My Time, And I Want Out, So Abusive, Fate!” = what?
Seriously, the only bits of that song that are any good is the Intro, Ending and Joey’s drumming. That’s the only thing I’ve seen majorly improve. Joey Jordison’s drumming.
I’m disappointed, SlipKnot. I really am.
I might not be a “Maggot”, but I still fucking love SlipKnot.
But if all their new songs are going to sound like this, I’m not going to be a happy bunny at all.
I’ll be waiting for Hate Mail kthx.
Amen!this really really pisses me off.i like joys mask more now.but this is not slipknot at all:/
and none of the solos are as metal as the old slipknot.
i was never into slipknot at all, and i dont like this either.
I’m just we have someone blogging frequently and on worthwhile topics
i hate, HATE the singing on the chorus
love the video, hate the song [cept intro and when they say "psychosocial"]
Now I’m not a diehard Slipknot fan, but I do like their music, and I have friends who are diehard fans, and we all like the new music as well as their older music, both are great, but I personally like the newer stuff better… I dunno, it’s just a matter of taste imo.
yea its a little different haha, its a more rock n roll sound and no longer that mosh push metal shit =/
btw the new beta sunds like some rammstein shit
and rammstein is good and all BUT slipknot is not rammstein so WTF
I’ve never actually listened to Rammstein, it’s something I’ve been meaning to check out, in fact, I’m gonna go check it out right now.
The lyrics are in German /cry.
I agree with you, their new shit’s gay. I love their old music.
I am with you on the fact that Slipknot has gone soft for this one song.
But have you ever listened to there other new song, “All Hope Is Gone”?
Its is quite a great song and i like to call psychosocial a power ballad to there awesomeness.
the only thing bad is that i just missed there show when they came to where i live D= but whatever, if you listen to All Hope Is Gone youll find out that they didnt soften up that much. i do agree that there first album just cant be beat with all the deathlyness but they go wherever they want to. i highly doubt that there is even a possibility that they are selling out to the softer croud!
and dude you are the mann i saw your vids for the first time today and your already my new hero =D
hopefully you accept my friend request on myspace!
Meh Slipknot has always been a decent band but no offence I only liked six or seven of their songs also I never really liked the vocals of Slipknot very much but thats because most of my bands sound like this:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D5Hv0tsvpyU
