I think I’m a maggot now… I’ve never been to a concert or a festival, but Slipknot just announced a UK Tour next year, so please consider subscribing and I’ll document the whole experience for your viewing pleasure 🤌

[@AkumaClaps]

Welcome to the fam bruh ! I been a fan since I was 14 y.o, back on their self-titled album era, I'm 37 now🤟🏽

[@miguelmarin3873]

Welcomeeeeeeee ohhh yeeeesss

[@Aisha-bd9tb]

Woohoo!! lets fucking go! your reactions are always so insightful and fun to watch!! I became a maggot back in like 2017, But aside from experiencing Slipknot, I've loved every second of my metal journey

[@halfgriffs]

Slipknot has the craziest concert atmosphere. Brutal and fun as can be

[@hayesblake]

Maggot 4 life. No going back now

The birth of a fresh, tender, new Metal fan is so pure and heart-warming! Keep it up, bro!

If you really want to hear Corey’s voice his acoustic version of Snuff might be the most emotionally charged lyrics I ever heard ever heard. It’s incredible

[@ryanzone3126]

Oh damn dude that is an amazing performance. Highly recommend!

Both you and The Charismatic Voice (an opera singer turned metalhead) put a Psychosocial reaction/analysis up today, I don't know if you watch her too but such a coincidence Both people from different genres slowly becoming metalheads. It's like magic

Some interesting facts about Slipknot frontman Corey Taylor: in addition to being a musician, he has appeared in a few movies, including one with Robert Englund, aka Freddy Krueger. He has written 4 books, some of which were New York Times bestsellers. He also founded in 2022 "The Taylor Foundation". to help veterans who have suffered from PTSD.

[@jesterx31100]

Don't forget Stone Sour! Lead singer there before Slipknot.

[@bighouse1695]

There is no better rabbit hole to go down than Slipknot. Corey Taylor is so talented. You are just getting started my friend. Please more and more Slipknot. Thanks for sharing your reaction with us.

[@simonball772]

Corey is the Spiritual successor to Mike Patton from Faith no more, 1 man, Many voices....FNM arent as heavy as this but you mike like them

[@skarlottt]

I'm starting down the rabbit hole this week. I need to get a decent system in my pos

[@LornaRochford]

​@skarlottt Throw some Stone Sour in there too!

[@kimberlylove2207]

I always feel so jealous and envious of the ppl who get to listen & see Slipknot for the first time.. I wish I could factory reset my brain so I can experience Slipknot for the first time again.. Seeing you become a Maggot is close enough for me.. Your Slipknot reactions are my legit favs I've seen thus far. ❤❤

[@darrenpratt8803]

Corey does the scream/ rapping and the singing. Referring to another comment, his acoustic version of Snuff is just heart wrenching

[@Psycom5k1]

🎉Baby’s first headbang!🎉 13:03 it’s great seeing him do the hip hop bop and transition into headbanging, it’s like it’s an instinctual thing. Also the lyrics definitely mean something to the writer but I’m pretty sure they want you to interpret them for yourself anyways. I’m not sure if I’m remembering that correctly, it was from one of many interviews I’ve watched. Also I know people have said it already but check out Bother By stone sour. It’s Corey’s other band, you also can see his face if you’re curious.

[@jamesray6316]

Corey is a jack of all trades. He does everything from slipnot to stonesour as well as featured on multiples styles of music from apocalyptica to techn9ne. The man can do it all. Ive been a maggot since 99' and still love his voice and vocal range.

[@varin5749]

Just found your channel, love your metal reactions man. You seem like a genuine dude with a real love for music.

[@TeddyGreyOS]

Thank you my friend! My relatively recent journey through this genre is all in one playlist if you wish to see what I’ve reacted to so far that’s similar to this! Sometimes the KZbin algorithms do me no favours so I made it in chronological order for the whole journey so far! kzbin.info/aero/PLZjk4aZ2IbGW5hIibnlT2xWtRPHlSvAq4&si=VhqoK8siJgfCgnbt

[@juliejohnston3431]

Just found this channel 3 days ago. I'm obsessed with genuine people.

[@DangerMouseFN]

For Slipknot content, can I suggest Spit It Out live at Download 2009. It'll give you an idea of how their concerts feel. Also, The Devil In I is another good track/video...

[@zippymacadoo6336]

The Devil in I has some graphic horror that Teddy won't like. Sid, ya know?

[@shionacollman6365]

Yes! Was there, can confirm. One of my favourite moments in my festival 'career'.

[@Ulnyx]

The Devil In I is my ringtone.

[@bruno3778]

Welcome to the maggot club! Corey is one of the most creative and talented in the biz. His vocal range is incredible! I highly recommend the live, acoustic version of Snuff. It’s a very slow and emotional song but extremely powerful at the same time. You won’t believe it’s the same guy as this.

[@chewedgf2662]

Let him explore it a bit ..it took me a while to get familiar to slipknot..went trough their history..listened half of their songs..and then i got to snuff❤

[@Ulnyx]

Fun fact, during the scream of "The limits of the dead." That has so much power behind it, vocally, because it is a triple layer of him and 2 backup singers. Also the first time they do that part, their is what can be best described as a creepy siren, playing fully on the right side. (Its hard to hear unless you have good headphones) It adds some extra depth to that part, even for those whose headphones aren't good enough to actually discern it.

[@noobkingjb165]

8:27 this is one of their percussionists, chris fehn, who is also a backup singer. he based his mask off of Pinocchio. In concerts he will rub his nose back and forth in front of cameras.

[@fisicoinerba]

See Paul, and Joey together my heart is bleeding.....RIP LEGENDS.....I LOVE YOU SO MUCH!!!

[@Deama180]

Corey Taylor does both the hard, deep singing and the clean vocals. Chris Fehn is the long nose mask, he does the growls in the background

[@JibbeJo9]

Please do SULFUR with the music video! Same guy (corey taylor) singing and «rapping» they have different masks on every album😊

[@burnd]

guitars have such a wide range of satisfying sounds that you dont get out of the usual hip hop or other mainstream song

[@wolfinthesno]

Dude wait until you hit more of the heavy rap songs lol. The obvious next reaction should be Spit It out Live. But my favorite one that no one ever talks about is "Only One." Awesome watching you get into this man. You can tell its just a pure new music reaction and its priceless.

[@Cjay1213]

Yess good call! Spit it out!!

[@Pidoprill]

Suggestion: Foo Fighters - The pretender. More rock than metal but absolutely one of the greatest!

[@adronac2586]

Thats a banger yes !

[@chadlaykanoodle8669]

Yess this is Corey Taylor. Same guy from Falling in Reverse DRUGS in the part that's very graphic. Just no mask in that feature haha.

[@shionacollman6365]

The absolute joy you seem to convey just fills my heart and makes me so happy. The fact that you have come out of your comfort zone to experience something new (to you) is commendable. The alt scene has so much to offer and I'm so glad you're here with us! Please check out: Deftones, Tool, Alice In Chains, Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Pixies just to start with. I appreciate your love and acceptance. Peace brother!

Best way to end my birthday evening, my new favourite reactor reacting to my favourite slipknot song 🎵

[@TeddyGreyOS]

HAPPY BIRTHDAY! 🥳

[@0tifa0zell0]

Thanks so much 🍻

[@johnstephenson7730]

For the next song, I'd reccomed 'Before I Forget'. Its typically one I suggest to newer listeners and of course its amazing. For a bit of a history to the music video, the members of the band are without their masks, however their faces are just off camera. No one knew what they looked like at the time, so people were freaking out when the video was released and trying to piece their faces together from the limited clips we were given. You should also check out 'Dead Memories', also if you are feeling particularly daring and are starting to listen to some of the heavier stuff, 'The Devil in I' would make for a great reaction video. Keep up the reactions man, the metal commuity always welcomes new fans!

[@zacharymcintyre5938]

He's just beautiful to the ears

[@Geequed]

Greetings from Northern Sweden! 💪🏻🇸🇪 I feel so happy when I see your analysis of Slipknot lyrics and your honest reaction. I still remember hearing Slipknot for the first time...just a young guy back then, 17-18 years old. Slipknot still gets me banging my head at over 40 years of age. 🤘🏻 Thank you, for the reactions. Enables me to kind of rekindle that feeling, of what it was to hear it for the first time. /Mr. G

[@bradleyotto]

got you beat I'm 60 and still Banging my head to these monsters!!! Rock On!!!!💯🤘

[@RabbitMax]

The line is "the preservation of the martyr in me"

[@mattsoucy4755]

Welcome to the Slipknot Family Teddy! I envy this band and the metal genre being new to you. It absolutely takes me back seeing your reaction to these videos because its the same as I had the first time I saw them. Enjoy your journey brother. Metal is a well that when you put your bucket in it, always comes back with water.

[@masztaarc]

"What Are'ya?" Been asking this since the 90's, but still great

[@torenvarela9340]

When you hit the vibe of metal music, it's a visceral reaction! It makes you feel so powerful it's like you could rip the world in half with your bare hands.

[@gcdumas2928]

GREAT reaction! Corey MF'n Taylor is so talented, along with the rest of the band, his rapping to harsh to clean vocals have such amazing transitions... you REALLY need to check out 'Spit it Out - Live at Download Festival' - you will not be disappointed!

Apocalyptica has a song called I'm Not Jesus, Corey does vocals. It's really fantastic.

[@brando8770]

Tip of the iceberg

[@claireshaw2980]

You need to watch the live show of Spit it out. They set a record for the number of people crouching down ready to jump the fuck up. His crowd control is astounding

[@guillaumelessard4047]

For you 3rd song, I highly recommend "spit it out" A- for the earlier sound B- for a rapper take on the lyrical aspect. It's the final nail in the coffin to make you a true magot hahaha

[@michaelclements5793]

Psychosocial (adjective): of or relating to the interaction between social and psychological factors. Your interpretation of us all being aware of societal problems, yet silently going along with it and refusing to be the martyr (because it's futile) is a perfectly apt take on this song. Art is subjective. Although they had a meaning in mind when writing it, it is intended that you will take your own meaning from it. It's written in a way that allows some interpretation. Anyone who tries to take away the subjectiveness of art is completely missing the point of creating it in the first place.

[@OldMFer]

Should see some of their live show footage. How the fans go nuts is amazing.

[@skarlottt]

You're doing great bruh. Corey is multitalented

[@flipjupiter1]

Welcome to metal. The kindest, warmest, nicest people I have ever hung out with. We genuinely love music so much that we welcome everyone with open arms. Enjoyed your reaction video as well!

[@sigururmagni1730]

If you want to hear Corey Taylor rap, then Spit It Out is the next song in line!

[@lithiumheart5070]

A couple of suggestions since you seem to be enjoying Slipknot might be Snuff or Vermillion pt. 2

[@pizzathehut.]

Can't wait for you to get to Snuff. Completely throwing you for a loop

[@Mrs.Pritchard]

Been a maggot since I first heard Iowa. Truly love to see someone appreciating the music and really feeling it. Also I almost peed myself with the “long nosed MF” comment 😂 so excited you’re on this journey mate, cheers! 🤘🏻

[@lilith_exe]

Gotta say I LOVE your videos, you're so open minded about it all and I like how you don't just react you also delve deep into the musicality of each song and the perceived meaning! I would really like to see you react to some Pantera someday or even some machine head! Keep it up bruv 😎

[@nathanglover-booth9777]

Teddy mate it’s great watching you getting into the genre I’ve loved for the last 20+ years since my youth. It’s actually making me listen to NuMetal again. If you’re carrying on the Slipknot trail, Wait and Bleed, and Spit it Out Live (Download festival maybe) are a must. 🦀

[@ThankYouStayedHere]

if you're big on lyrics, metal and hiphop are a treasure trove of lyricists

[@windy-oo2di]

The Masks get updated each album. Although some of the band members change them up more than others.

[@CITRUSSCENT]

Corey Taylor has another band where he sings called Stone Sour. Try looking up the song Through Glass. You’ll love it. (I’m still watching this video in case this is mentioned later and I haven’t seen it yet)

The "rain will kill us all" is the great floods that cleans the earth.

'Eyeless' has a lot of drum 'n bass in it.

[@LauraHernandez-gc2fs]

I missed a lot of this group because their masks scared me, but once you listen to them they have very good material. I'm still learning about them.

[@krisdavis5657]

You've never been to a heavy metal concert and naturally headbang. Welcome to our club

[@jaydavidzz2277]

The harmonic you hear in the intro is the guitars, it's the detail of the song for me

[@justinmonds]

Your reaction is as genuine as they come. The fact that you are open to the comments leading you to the correct band member names, looking up lyrics to understand the song, it all just adds up to a great reaction. Well done! Looking forward to more of your Slipknot catalogue.

[@enchantress6663]

Its always corey rapping and singing ❤❤🤘

[@DeuceTreyz]

You are hearing some of the BEST MUSIC ever made and the next video I'm going to watch of yours is System Of a Down. I'll turn 40 next year and have grown up listening to ALL genres of music. Never stop discovering.

[@Jeasegangte]

we all know whats supposed to come next... Slipknot - Spit It Out live

[@metalmax2852]

Check out Bad Omens

[@MrDekasOne]

Dimebag Darrell (rip) from pantera was the absolute master of the pinch harmonic when you get to pantera which I'm sure you will eventually you'll see what I mean. Slipknot change or alter their masks pretty much every time they release an album Cory in particular drastically changes masks

[@patch5217]

I thought the same thing with harmonics and DD. Will be a good time when he gets to Pantera! Can't wait for Cemetery Gates.

[@skarlottt]

Best drummer.

[@williammoye6997]

It is amazing how quickly people who have never heard of slipknot get hooked. Welcome to the club. Corey has been and still is the singer. Massive range and a genius. Check out spit it out live , we are not your kind, and devil in I .

[@gjur99]

Oh this should be good. Happy to have found your channel! The rock/metal reactions are brilliant,keep up the good work!

[@Laboon89]

Would love to see your reaction to some of the heavier stuff like Slaughter to Prevail - Viking or Brand of Sacrifice - Lifeblood. Might be jarring at first, but I love that genre of music and listen to it every day.

[@LeperMessiah2]

Its too soon. He must be more aquinted with growls. It is so easy to turn people away from deathcore. I'm glad he pulls lyrics since especially Lorna lyrics are very complex

[@neelanjyandutta9494]

Its all on that 1 single THICK-NECKED LEGEND, Corey! All that 1 guy on vocals. Welcome to the Maggot Pit!

[@elliottborgstrom9135]

Just found this account and im so glad to see another hiphop head loving metal! The power of music!

[@pogscar2843]

Watched a few vids and i gotta say i love your reactions to metal songs. Its great that you take attention to the lyrics. Id suggest 2 bands. Rammstein is german but the lyrics are pretty nice. You can find good translations on yt, educatedmarine has quite a few and some custom videos as well. Deutschland is a good starter i would say. Another band is Lorna shore, its deathcore so its heavy, but lyrics are interesting as well. Their song "to the hellfire" is a banger. Cant wait to see this reaction tho, keep it up!

[@Pidoprill]

Not sure he's ready for Lorna Shore but Rammstein for sure!

[@rexona_rolon]

You gotta react to their 1st and 2nd album if you think that’s heavy lol. Their 1st album has a LOT of rap (“Only One” is a great example) and their 2nd album has a lot of Death Metal elements (“The Heretic Anthem” being the best example), so you really should try that out. But first, as you said, I would recommend searching their history, who they are and their masks, so you don’t get confused lmao.

[@vishd33]

Love the part after the light singing , repeating Psychosocial sounds like Circumcision

[@Lostsage01]

Even though the album lyric booklet says ‘rain’, I’ve always heard the chorus as, “and the reign will kill us all”… which seems to fit metaphorically if we’re talking about oppressing others, being oppressed, or oppressing yourself. 🦀 Then again, taking the more literal meaning of the lyrics which are criticizing what amounts to a holy war waged in the Middle East, essentially over money and oil, then using the term ‘rain’ carries some religious significance of the biblical flood washing away the sins of man to start again. Love it when songs leave space for interpretation

[@Goalkingcol]

Vermillion part2 is amazing and such a different feel to what you have heard already and showcases Corey’s voice

[@LittleVoodooDolly]

It really does, but I think that he should do both part 1 and 2. It show's how Slipknot can create two songs from one melody that evoke totally differnt feelings when listensed to. Plus they are supposed to be listen to togther to get the full story of the song 😃

[@Lers_780]

Love Vermillion part 1 and 2. Shows the incredible range Corey has.

[@AkumaClaps]

i'm not sure if anyone has mentioned this but Corey Taylor is also the singer of another band, Stone Sour. Check em out bruv. Start with these •"Through Glass" •"Bother" •"Tired" •"Song #3" Slpiknot also has some slower/softer songs •"Snuff" •"Vermillion" (Corey Taylor did an acoustic version of "Snuff" Live. It should be on here.)

[@Thesaurcery4U2C]

Dimebag has the tastiest pinch harmonics of the lot. In fact he figured out the way to make the "squeal" sound sustain for as long as he chooses. How he does it. It's a dive, then a flick and a capture, then send it to the sky and back. Founding member and lead guitarist for the band... PANTERA. The sound has been described as a "vulgar display of power." 😉

[@ronsmicz7556]
