Slipknot.
I don’t know even where to start with this band. This is another one of those bands that have a ton of fans and I dont understand why. It all don’t make sense, it don’t add up. Here’s why I don’t like them. First off, someone needs to tell them halloween only comes once a year. Second, it really pisses me off when someone calls them “death metal”. They are “nu metal” and if you beg to differ, i’ll gladly put you in your place. Here’s why, first, this band consists 9 members. Second, they have a DJ. No metal band should have a fucking DJ. Third, they have the same elements of rapcore, meaning, The singer raps while there are guitars. Thus, Slipknot is nothing but a nu metal band.
Onto the percussionists. First, Joey Jordison, their main drummer, is good. He’s nothing past that. Just because he can drum upside down, like OMG, makes him the best, NO! Any drummer who’s decent can do that. Second, why in the flying fuck do we have a guy who’s job is to hit a fucking keg with a baseball bat? Since when was this an instrument? Why don’t we go all out and bang on pots and pans? Goddamn. And, just for the note, If I was drumming and had two people backing me up, I’d sound damn good too! I remember my brother in law once got me their cd and I thought it was the biggest garbage I’ve ever heard in my life. I can understand not everyone has my taste in music, but it seems most anyone and everyone into metal likes them minus VERY FEW people, am I not seeing something they are? I don’t get it.
So what have we learned here? Slipknot sucks. They’re not metal. They have a DJ. They have too many goddamn members, and they need to realize Halloween is only once a year. I figured this blog would only be appropriate seeing we’re only two day shy of Halloween. Feel free to leave your comments if you disagree.
