You think you know Metal?

Kanno:
Why does everyone hate Slipknot so much?
I mean, well, ok, most of their songs suck.. especially nowadays..
But their self-titled was cool, except for the couple of obvious radio-targeted songs (spit it out, wait and bleed).

I guess the masks aren't helping my argument much..

Robbo:
Because they're not Metal? Even the one before the self titled wasn't good. Maybe certain members are skilled, but the band sure doesn't show it.

Add to the fact their the band of posers age 8-18 who think they listen to really heavy music...please.

Revenge_Therapist:
Anyone into Pelican or Mastadon.
Also does Nerouses count as metal?

a pack of wolves:
I was really disappointed by Pelican live. Their first two songs were great, really excellent riffs, but after that they seemed to drift off and it all lost focus. Maybe I'd like them more on record, plus the fact that Jesu pulled out at the last minute wasn't putting me in a good mood. Mastodon are pretty mint though.

What would Slipknot be if not metal? And on the subject of them being heavy, I know a guy who'd disagree with you on that front Robbo. And since he's done time in Tangaroa and Narcosis he's no clueless kid. Not much of a fan myself, but the drumming's usually pretty good and I don't actively dislike them.

Robbo:
I love Pelican, as I love all things Drone. Mastodon just seem to be one of these bands that have exploded on the underground and with fair reasons as well.

Seeing Drone live is always an iffy thing, if you dont really like it or the atmosphere doesn't catch you, you're not gonna like it or have a clue where the music is going.

Do you mean Neurosis? If so, yes.

Slipknot have always struck me as just a really bad Nu Metal version of members previous Death and Grind bands. I knew a few people have thrown the "Death n Roll" tag at them that's used for bands like Six Feet Under.
