This song got me into Slipknot's music, back in 2007. Time flies so fast ..

[@joshcarpenter2008]

Joey Jordison was the drummer at that time. He left the group before he unfortunately passed away... RIP

[@DiamondDukePictures]

He also wrote most of the riffs. Badass

[@slipknot6789]

So many maggots (the official name of Slipknot fans) wanted them to do a video with them not wearing their masks, so they did. Now do Psychosocial and Spit it Out, live from the Download Festival... 09 I believe. Corey does solo work and is the lead singer for Stone Sour.

Great reaction ❤❤❤ If you get a chance to react to Snuff and then Corey Taylor's acoustic version together, that'd be dope! I'm a big Slipknot fan and I'm from Des Moines, IA Slipknot's hometown. Also my husband is in the video for Duality, with his buddy, they're sitting on the roof of the garage, just for a moment, but it counts 😂

[@KakavashaForever]

Overwhelmed by emotions 30 seconds into the song, this guy gets it. That's what makes music beautiful, it makes us feel things, sometimes unexpectedly. Fucking love it man.

[@CoreyWickramasekera]

I saw them LIVE and I was blown away that they were able to REPRODUCE THAT STUDIO SOUND, "LIVE" but they did, and they BLEW ME AND EVERYONE THERE AWAY!!!

[@glpf5]

Duality...just do it! Thanks for the vid. Just watched this again and had to comment as music does the same things to me; hairs stand up, I tear up at times...I really feel the music just like you do.

Believe me in the pit in front of those SUBS at a Slipknot concert feeling your guts move inside of you almost making you nauseous WAS PRICELESS. RIP JOEY LOVE YOU MY FRIEND

[@DanFrijoles]

This video came out right before they revealed their faces for the first time. You'll notice all their masks are hanging in the background and they're only slightly showing their faces. It was somewhat of a "teaser" before they revealed themselves for the first time in Rolling Stone magazine.

[@lyubasaunders2848]

It's such a joy to watch your reactions to heavy metal because I CAN TELL THAT it is really changing your perceptions! It brings me back to being a 15 year old, laying on my bed stoned, listening to Metallica on cassette Imagine..there wasn't anything like it back in 1984. We had nothing to reference to or compare. It was during the beginnings of the Bay Area heavy music scene. None of this stuff got airplay,it was all underground. In my late teens I met Ron Quintana. A San francisco DJ who gave Metallica their name and is still friends with them to this day. As a grown woman (now 52 yrs old) I met the founder of Testament one of the Bay Areas BIG FOUR and he opened my eyes to a lot more music I had to really listened to. The beautiful thing about metal is not only does it make your spirit soar, giving the feels in all sorts of uncommon ways. But it is ever evolving. Your in for a lifetime of discovery with this genre. I can't explain how excited I am for you! Welcome to the club buddy! We are tight knit and can recognize each other and I'm pretty sure I recognize you! MUCH LOVE❤❤ 🤘yaaaaarrr!

[@austinmarshall5102]

Finally! This is the first reaction ive seen that has called out the vocal inflection towards the end. I dont know why, but its my favorite part of the song too.

[@happysettra6809]

Hip Hop Fans love to react to Slipknot.

[@neilpatrickhairless]

Slipknot have been around since the mid 90's. Them and bands like Snot and Mushroomhead and Incubus kind of spawned from Faith No More's Angel Dust album and Mr. Bungle's Self Titled album

[@albertpro2700]

You MUST listen to the first 2 tracks on this album. Start with Prelude 3.0 and let your mind explode when The Blister Exists comes on. 🤯

[@shotaholic1]

the genius of this video is that they still had full anonymity at that point and they are actually not wearing their masks…yet, you still don’t actually see them. you only get teased. this song is one of my top 5 Slipknot songs, but this has always been my favorite video of theirs.

[@Dawnlight-vt5es]

I wish I'd found your channel sooner. Slipknot are my boys.. my number 1.. my 9. ❤ I love to see the enthusiasm and enjoyment. I'm 50 years old but I'll be rocking slipknot then I'm 70+ 😁♥️

[@Dawnlight-vt5es]

When..

[@black4pienus]

Got this one in my mp3 player playlist. Yep, I still got an mp3 player. I also still got a discman and a walkman. Not that I still use the last 2, but I can't throw them away! lol. Now Slipknot. A lot of people see the masks and before listening to their music, they decide it's not for them. They're missing out.

[@stoneoutdooradventures2286]

The drums in solway firth and Nero forte will get you hyped.

[@MetalJett]

Love seeing you react to all the stuff I grew up with. I’ve mentioned it before, but Momento Mori by Lamb of God. It will slap you in the face more than any video you have reacted to so far.

[@rawkmode6315]

I love the symbolism of how Corey can only go as far as his mic cord will allow.

[@christopherglock7239]

Jim Root plays in Stone Sour as well. His guitars and Cory's lyrics are just as amazing

[@drsus0]

[@CoreyWickramasekera]

This is one of my favorite SLIPKNOT songs 🎵

[@davejersey8464]

That was awesome! It's been awhile since I've heard this. Slipknot doesn't have names, they have numbers

[@neilpatrickhairless]

This is later era style Slipknot. After their debut major label album on IOWA, they started using a lot more radio friendly riffs and pop hooks. They were on Slipknot Self Titled as well just peppered in a lot more randomly and less. The first debut album is dark as hell and lo-fi. The drums sound evil as hell on it

[@claytonharrison2920]

That skip across the notes at the end is one of my favourite things in life too

[@joho0]

RIP Paul RIP Joey Two of the greatest lost way too soon

Guarantee slipknot will be one of your favorite bands. Drums drums drums.

[@Backbone420]

My eyes tear up when I listen to music sometimes too. It’s a sign that you are genuinely moved by what you’re hearing. That’s why I’m enjoying your metal reactions. I get to see that joy punch you in the face. 🤣 Getcha pull. 🤘

[@Defensive_Wounds]

*FALLING IN REVERSE - WATCH THE WORLD BURN* - This will fuck you up big time and The band might react to your reaction - Ronnie does that a lot! Their videos also are never blocked or claimed at all! This song is insane in his delivery of the vocals and the video is literally like a bloody film!

[@doublewhat07]

This came out in 2003. This is high school for me. this is when they stopped being just Nu-Metal and became a part of the New Wave of American Heavy Metal. I'm talking about bands like Killswitch Engage, Lamb of God, Shadows Fall, Avenged Sevenfold, and hundreds of others who mixed death metal, thrash, melodeath, groove, nu metal, and hardcore. The album after this is pure NWOAHM. This is my friend's favorite Slipknot album because they cuss the least on it. Lol. Now go listen to the other single hit on the album.. Duality.

[@beezysbeatz4924]

This video was really badass back in the day because they hadn't revealed their faces yet. You can't get that lightning back in the bottle!

[@slayerules]

Definitely Spit It Out by Slipknot live at Download 2009 (UK festival near Derby, 80k people). Rapping and insane live show, Joey on the drums is mad, you'll love it!

[@Nightmare_Texas]

So duality and this song are off their third album. Wait and bleed was their first album. Vol 3 is a very polished album filled with tons of nice riffs and a good balance between clean & hard vocals

[@ej1936]

Duality is the necessary next step for you

[@LeviBoldock]

Tell me you didn't watch this video before commenting without telling me...

[@TheSlysterII]

I love your reactions to these videos. What I will say about Slipknot, as much as I love the guitars and vocals, what always gets me is the percussion, it is superb.

[@jerrybell781]

Solway Firth and Not Long for This World have become 2 of my favorites even even though I prefer their older stuff.

[@susanconstable2113]

Corey’s voice is great. He can scream and also just sing beautifully. Kind of like Chester and also m shadows from avenged sevenfold. If you don’t know avenged you must delve into them. I’m in my 50s and discovered them nearly 15 years ago I think and I freaking love them !

If you want.too hear Corey Taylor singing more than screaming check out his other band Stone Sour. Got some really good heavy songs

[@johnscotillo139]

Unsainted All out life Left behind Surfacing The negative one Or really any other song they made an official video for is amazing.

[@shahfacekillah]

In my personal, and professional opinion, this is a top 5 Slipknot song.

[@tigrionume]

A couple things that you touched on. One, Corey Taylor is correct, he is the lead vocalist. He had another band, Stone Sour, their music is pretty awesome as well. He also has two solo albums and has done collaborations with several other bands. Two, the drums, as already mentioned in the comments, Joey Jordison was the drummer at this time and he was phenomenal! RIP Joey! But another thing to know is that there are two additional percussionists in the band that play a variety of drums and "drum like objects", from standing toms, to kettle drums, to banging on beer kegs with baseball bats. The combined sounds are amazing and unique! Love the reactions! Keep diving deeper! Suggestions - Surfacing, Sulfer, Killpop, AOV, Nero Forte!

[@haxan6663]

Casual listeners just hear music. Music lovers feel the music, as well as hearing it, which is why we find it so intoxicating.

[@tiagoamorim81]

It's a chronological leap to go from Wait And Bleed to Before I Forget, bit I suggest you do an even bigger one and react to the song that gave and still gives huge goosebumps, Solway Firth. It's heavy but a creepy and weird kind of heavy. It's a masterpiece!

By now you know who the drummer is but RIP to this unbelievable drummer. Seen them live 5 times in london. This first time was at the Astoria, London. There first show in uk. It was complete madness. 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻

[@JoyoSnooze]

The music video is sort of.. less is more. Back when this came out, the band weren't nearly as recognisable without their masks as they are now. The masks still held them in mystery, alongside the artistic reasons why they wore them. A lot more emphasis was put on their anonymity. So the video showing them performing without the masks on hit a bit different back in that day. Killer song for all time though, for real. Glad you're vibing with Slipknot dude, it's a hell of a a kickass rabbit hole to go down.

[@tranquilescape5107]

I recommend literally anything by Static-X. My personal suggestions are “I’m With Stupid”, “I’m The One”, “This Is Not”, and “Wisconsin Death Trip”

[@patrickduffy1638]

Joey is the greatest metal drummer of all time . The king of innovation

[@89gt5.0]

That’s hilarious

[@RussBMCSGT]

It’s not just one drummer there are literally 3 or 4 percussionists. Well, there were they keep firing people. Check out Eyeless, Duality & Psychosocial

[@neilpatrickhairless]

When this song came out there were two percussionists and a drummer and a DJ that added percussion and also a sound designer and keyboardist who added a lot of textural elements that were related to the rhythm section. Slipknot's Self Titled album showcased it perfectly. The drum parts and extra electronic stuff on that album is absolutely legendary

[@RussBMCSGT]

@@neilpatrickhairless bro, Sid is the the absolute BOMB he’s added so much subtlety to these songs that if it weren’t for Rick Beato I never would have noticed. As for the # of percussionists, the drummer counts too so I was kinda trying to included them all while leaving room for fluctuation, I hope that makes sense. The funny thing is I had Zero interest in Slipknot when they first came out I was still headlong into Metallica & they were at one of the Ozzfests while was doing a Marine Corps Combined Arms Exercises at 29 Palms in CA & I had buddy who had a press pass & took pics of them but, I just ignored them back in 1999. It wasn’t until I had heard Duality shortly before I left for Iraq that I picked up that album Vol 3 Subliminal Verses & it, Mudvayne, Slayer & Metallica got me through the hell that was the Triangle of Death that I fell in love with Slipknot.

[@aaroncurle5466]

Joey (R.I.P) was a great drummer. He and a number of drummers jumped in and saved the day when Lars from Metallica took ill when they headlined download festival 2004. Maybe check out a live song from that.

[@TheJaxxT]

Dude, I tear up to music all the time! To some heavy shit too… Lorna Shore has had my full on crying with a bunch of their songs (not just the trilogy for those who know, but yes, that’s included). Music is a powerful being, that’s a universal language. It’s incredible
