My First Time Listening to We Are Not Your Kind by Slipknot | My Reaction

[@reesebobby1680]

I remember first hearing this album and I was so shocked. The band all being well into their 40s and sounding like this, making their heaviest record since Iowa. An absolutely amazing record. From the intensity of Critical Darling to the catchy harmonies of Spiders, I think I'd rank this one in my Top 3 with the Self Titled & Iowa.

[@finellawaddilove2543]

Same !!! So heavy and thumping

[@willhargreaveshf]

Words cannot express how much I love this album, I've never looked forward to an album more than in the lead up to this coming out and it absolutely exceeded my expectations. I wrote a massive review of this record a couple years ago but I'll try to keep it brief. Everything we've ever seen from Slipknot is turned up to 10, it's got the heaviest riffs, the weirdest soundscapes, the slickest cohesion, Corey's best and most contrasting vocals and lyrics. Unsainted, Nero Forte, Critical Darling and Solway Firth are all top 10 Knot songs for me, but every track is perfect to me, be it a dynamite song or a gorgeous transition track (I'd include My Pain). I love that's it's cyclical with 'I'm counting all the killers'. I'm sure there are some qualities I'm forgetting because there are so many elements of this record to love. I basically have it as equal to the debut, it might as well be the best album ever. It's that good. WHAT'S THIS

[@mollyesanborn]

I agree wholeheartedly. It's a perfect album imo. No skips, nothing sounds out of place either. And you're right about their being a lot of weird sounds and unexpected portions to this album but it works fantastically in emphasizing the creepy atmosphere of this record. If I ever do a Slipknot album ranking video I'd be curious to see where this one lands, cause it's certainly up there with Iowa and self titled.

The ending of Not Long for This World is one of my favorite displays of sound the world has made.

[@BigHomieSteveTheMetalHead]

Same here man, it's why "Not Long For This World" is in my Top 5 Slipknot songs. That and the lyrics really resonate with me, very underrated song in their discography imo.

[@brentkilgore5182]

I'll never forget the first time I heard that song. Was driving, pulled into a parking lot and sat through it, absolutely blown away by it. So so incredibly good

[@Xeroforte]

I love this album, and honestly, I don't see what some people don't like about it. The flow between tracks is immaculate and it balances the intensity of Iowa and risk taking elements of Vol. 3 perfectly. Sure, it isn't the heaviest thing in the world, but it doesn't need to be. They're all pushing 50, they either get old and mellow out a little into a more artistic direction or the more depressing option, they don't get older.

[@mollyesanborn]

You worded it perfectly, it's got that intensity of Iowa but they've approached it differently on this album, opting for that more atmospheric sound.

[@luisproducedit]

stepa profile picture!

[@everyonelovesmajima]

Some people are just always going to whine that it's not Iowa and that's annoying. Of course it's an amazing album, so just go listen to it. That album is not something that you could ever just "write another one" of.

[@jackcravford8744]

@@everyonelovesmajima My grip is the mixing and production, to my ears it is generic and the song writing feels off. There is also less bass on this record. Hydrograd from Stone Sour has better sounding drums and bass for whatever reason. I just cant enjoy an album that has not interesting sound engineering to me at all.

[@leftfield5914]

It was heavy AF .....Orphan......

[@gregallnatt2486]

Most of the electronics in this album are Sids' turntables. They really upped the production on this album and gave Sid and Craig (Samples, keyboard) a chance to shine on this one.

You are correct about the Japanese release.

Jim was talking about playing it live and having a guitar made specifically for it. It sucks that never happened.

[@t-rectadactyl3342]

Mannn honestly it's hard for me to choose if either WANYK or Iowa is my favorite album from them lol but I am willing to say though that Unsainted is my favorite track from them of all time and all around great banger. I remember hearing it for the first time and instantly got addicted to it lmfao

The transition of not long for this world into solway is perfect, and the final of the entire album "I haven't smiled in years" superb

[@nicosilva8724]

Definitely my favorite Slipknot album and for all the reasons you just numbered. This is a perfect album. So happy you liked it just as much

[@BigHomieSteveTheMetalHead]

Nice, I really love this album. My favorite songs from this album are "Not Long For This World" (Top 5 Slipknot song for me), "Orphan", "Solway Firth", "Critical Darling", and "Unsainted". Sid (the DJ) really shines on this album, Corey's lyrical writing is really cool, and Jay's drumming is freaking phenomenal (especially on "Orphan"). I can't wait for the new album, I loved all 3 of the new singles. Great reaction as usual Molly! 🤘🤘🤙🤙

[@TheJokesterSCR]

I liked The Dying Song and Yen. Hated Chapeltown Rag. That song is just so all over the place. None of the different parts feel like they go together at all. It has some cool individual parts to it, but the way it was all thrown together was offputting. Almost felt like they had no idea what direction to go in and just made a hodgepodge of a song.

[@ILikeCHEEZ9]

This album has shawn and corey written all over it because they're both big horror fans and you can hear it in the mix. Also nero forte is corey's addition to his repertoire of songs about ex wive's and they're always such good songs 15:43 Yes! right there. It comes through so well. Corey actually relased a special package with his solo album with the horror documentary he's in called In Search of Darkness and he provides some commentary on his horror favorites

[@Dr_AK_Gaming]

5:08 it is Morse Code, it translates to We Are Not Your Kind

[@frailimbnursery]

truthfully this is my favorite album from slipknot. i enjoy each track. each one has great production. this album sounds really mature, well-planned, and well-executed. the electronic sounds make this album very atmospheric and eerie. so cool. 10/10

[@TheNOJUSTICEJUSTUS]

Love your reactions Molly 🔥This album has grown to be my favorite Slipknot album. My only beef is they didn’t include All out Life.

Great review. Such an amazing album. Unsainted and Solway Firth are personal faves. I grew up on classic metal and thrash. I was quite dismissive of Slipknot when they first came out. Now, at 52, I play them constantly. They have such a unique sound.. These full album reviews are excellent. Your analysis had led me to revisit quite a few records.

Fun fact: There was an alternative version of What's Next with vocals that was originally intended to be on the album, but for what ever reason they chose to go with an instrumental. There's a demo of it floating around on youtube if you want to check it out. Personally I wish they had went with that version, as it adds to the eerie build up leading into Spiders.

Loved Spiders! For all the reasons. Had this slow bounce, heavy and easy feel to it. Did they NIN us? Reminds me how Spiritbox goes blends metalcore with more electronica or pop... like Garbage/Rob Zombie/Gorija groove. My Pain hits too. Digging their "slow jams" 😄

[@sammitchell3657]

Best album since Iowa. Thank you! Someone gets it!

[@hamms_lol]

Seeing how fond you’ve become of Slipknot is so rad. I bet you would really really enjoy Errorzone by vein. It’s an album that I’d say pays tribute with love to that early nu metal sound. If you ever want to listen to some hardcore that sounds like nu metal it’s one of the best out there honestly. It’s also really cool to see someone take to Slipknot given how much different they are than they were in their heyday so to speak. The turntables and extra percussion snippets add so many new layers to their songs it’s truly so so unique. Seeing how open minded you are about so many different genres is awesome, a very cool trait to have!

[@Benobot99]

For me, it's 6th place among their 6 albums (excluding MFKR). I've listened to all 6 over 30 times each so some have grown on me. My first exposure was AHIG, and I feel I enjoy more tracks on it than WANYK, but just by a couple. For Self-Titled, I love every track, including the demos and bonus tracks! (ESPECIALLY Scissors and Prosthetics) Same for Iowa, but I'm more often in the mood for ST than Iowa. The Gray Chapter is SO underrated! I love almost every track, especially Sarcastrophe, Skeptic, and If Rain Is What You Want. Vol. 3 took several listens to appreciate, but surprisingly I like it now, ESPECIALLY The Virus of Life. That's one of my favourite songs of Slipknot! For WANYK, I feel the first 4 tracks are somewhat weak, and I don't get the hype for Unsainted. Do people like it because they were introduced to Slipknot with it? Not sure, but I wish All Out Life could have replaced it. For AHIG, I like most of it, with Gematria, Wherein Lies Continue, All Hope Is Gone, and 'Til We Die as highlights. To summarize, psychotic Slipknot is my favourite side of them to hear. 1. Slipknot 2. Iowa 3. .5 The Gray Chapter 4. Vol. 3: The Subliminal Verses 5. All Hope is Gone 6. We Are Not Your Kind

I really enoyed this album and I like how experimental Slipknot has done. Like for instance "Insert Coin", "What's Next?", and "Death Because of Death". I love "Not Long For This World" and "Birth of the Cruel".

[@armandklink4843]

Was really looking forward to this review, this album grew so much on me over the years I might say it became my favorite in their entire discography, no filler all killer fun ride from start to finish. My highlights are the fast bangers like Nero Forte, Red Flag and Orphan, hopeful the next album will bring just as much excitement as We Are Not Your Kind did 3 years ago.

[@buddykaiser2380]

[@paleonneight5353]

One thing that stands out to me on this album is the interludes, the way they created the interludes and made them transition from one track to another is perfect. It captures a perfect dark mood. An interesting fact about this album is that "My Pain" is actually a song from a side project called "Look Outside Your Window" recorded in 2008 during the All Hope is Gone sessions by 4 members of the band (Corey, Shawn, Sid and Jim) in a house near the main studio. This album is still about to be released and according to them, it sounds like Radiohead.

[@metalfury5153]

This album is easily their best since vol. 3. I agree that I love the electronic/sci Fi/futuristic/horror feel that you described this album of having. Makes it stand out from other Slipknot albums. I can't wait for the new album when it drops! \m/ And after that, you should look up slipknot's demo album called Mate. Feed. Kill. Repeat. It was released in 1996 and not only had fewer members at the time, but Corey was not in the band yet. It's quite something to listen to. Regardless, I think you should go buy yourself a Slipknot shirt and declare yourself a maggot. \m/ One more thing. Here's a few albums I recommend for you: Marilyn Manson - Antichrist Superstar Disturbed - The Sickness Rob Zombie - Hellbilly Deluxe Bring Me the Horizon - Sempiternal Killswitch Engage - The End of Heartache My Chemical Romance - Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge

[@Venomleggs]

Absolute masterpiece of a record. This one + Tool's "Fear Inoculum" & Korn's "The Nothing" all being released within a 1 month span was almost overwhelming to say the least.

[@sriver004]

This album is indeed fantastic. You know a Vol. 3 is a very polarizing album that split Slipknot fans, and as a fan of both the Vol 3/All Hope Is Gones sound and their older Iowa and self titled sound I thought this album kind of marries both styles of more heavy and more melodic sound. I really enjoyed it. Strangely my friend whole loves Vol 3 and AHIG didn't like it much, which confused me lol Bur my favs were Unsainted, Nero Forte, Orphan, Not Long For This World, and Spiders. Nero Forte in particular really surprised me with its chorus, which was just a breath of fresh air and was awesome and somehow fit such a fast paced song.

[@TheJokesterSCR]

Unsainted, Birth of the Cruel, A Liar's Funeral, Nero Forte, Not Long for This World, and Solway Firth were all amazing tracks. Orphan is okay, but I feel it's overrated since it somewhat resemblesThe Heretic Anthem, but it's nowhere near as good. Songs like Insert Coin and What's Next are completely pointless. Then songs such as Death Because of Death, Spiders, and My Pain are painfully awful. It's like half of the album is awesome and the other half is terrible, in my opinion. So, I totally understand why your friend didn't care for it much.

[@theCrownofSympathy]

I'm with your friend on that one. I love Vol. 3. AHIG is okay and has a few songs that I love. This album is the worst to me, it's the first one for me to not own a physical copy of. I can barely tolerate listening to this whole way through. There's a few decent songs, but too many cheesy moments and unnecessary filler. I'm also not fond of the super polished production, I like Slipknot to sound a bit more dirty and raw than this.

[@dude6658]

This is probably their most experiment album since volume 3, I was hoping you'd do a reaction of it

[@bobbob-cd9yl]

imo this album had the best production by far in terms of keeping the slipknot sound. Which is my problem with their other albums for me, some of their earlier work had so much production done that it removed the heavy industrial sound that you hear when they perform live. Songs like Spit it out are NIGHT AND DAY live vs via CD

[@willhargreaveshf]

Spit it Out was a demo to be fair

[@JUJUJUNO]

The only thing I think it's worth criticizing about this record is the absence of the song with the album's title, All Out Life. I remember it being one of my favorite by the band and I wish it was on the official release track list. Other than that, I genuinely feel this one is on par with their first album and only behind Iowa, such a great record. The the full-on aggressiveness returned but the melodic and atmospheric aspects remained and it blended incredibly well with the help of the electronic side. It is also very experimental I feel, songs like Spiders and A Liar's Funeral are a great departure of their previous sounds (in my opinion) to travel through newer stuff and it is very well implemented. Also, Red Flag might as well be my favorite from this record overall, followed by A Liar's Funeral and Solway Firth

[@pnuemicking7347]

Definitely my favorite Slipknot album since Iowa. Vol. 3 has a lot of high points but is far from my favorite, I can’t get behind the slick and polished sound of AHIG, and The Grey Chapter is just alright imo. This album really brought them back for me! By the way, you should listen to All Out Life. It’s the first single for this album but wasn’t actually on the album, and it’s a great track. Awesome video as usual Molly!

[@skinmachine]

My favorite thing about this album is the drums. I think Jay's drumming on The Gray Chapter was competent, but clearly trying to emulate Joey Jordison's style. His performance on this record is much more his own, but still chaotic and unhinged in a way you'd only get on a Slipknot album. I'd be interested to hear your thoughts on the album Crisis by Alexisonfire. Their whole discography is excellent but Crisis is the jewel in the crown.

I have only really seen one or two other channels that do re-listens, it is always interesting to see if opinions change after a while. There was another channel that I saw where they listened to a Tool album but tried it in three different scenarios to see if each offered a better experience: Once whilst jogging, once whilst skating and then at home (I believe). I found that was kind of a unique approach.

you gotta listen to their single that came out between .5 and WANYK titled all out life

[@darthterror2840]

Fuck yeah! That was a great finisher. I haven’t smiled in years! This album might be their best. Not Long For This World is perfect. Unsainted is badass. Great video, Molly!

“The greatest conclusion that I ever had Is when I woke up, said “That’s enough!” Living never felt so bad.” - Not Long for This World Also… you should do Corey’s other projects Stone Sour and CMFT.

Ive been a slipknot fan my entire life. and for me at least this album gives iowa and subliminal (my two fav albums) a run for their money. The little slipknot fan in me doesnt wanna give it the title of my favorite album by them, if not ever, but boy does this album have beauty to it. I love everything about it, and no other album has spoken to me more in my life. I FUCKING LOVE THIS ALBUM.

Side note "my pain" was written by clown, his daughter died of an overdose right before this album started.

Please just listen to Alice in Chains whole discography. It's fall season and perfect for a deep dive into grunge. So many great bands, Temple of the Dog, Mad Season, Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Soundgarden, Stone Temple Pilots, etc.

[@mollyesanborn]

Absolutely! I've got some more AIC coming your way, Facelift reaction is next up ;)

[@femur8544]

you deffinetly need to take a listen to all out life!!!

[@Leo-xc5ks]

are serj's albums perhabs on the to do list? looking foward to it

[@mollyesanborn]

I'll definitely consider some of Serj's solo music for future videos!

[@Banterlope]

What an album honestly! Have you ever heard Sleep Token? They're such a vibe. Very chill with some heavy sections throughout. This Place Will Become Your Tomb is pretty incredible

[@mollyesanborn]

I have heard This Place Will Become Your Tomb, great album! I do have to check out more from Sleep Token's discography though, I don't believe I've heard anything from Sundowning.

[@Banterlope]

@@mollyesanborn It really is! Sundowning definitely feels a lot more expeimental. But the album itself is also fantastic. The deluxe edition of the album has some pretty rad covers, and some great stripped-back versions of their songs.

[@mollyesanborn]

@@Banterlope I'll definitely have to give it a listen soon, thanks for the reminder :)

[@swapticsounds]

Where did you get your jingle from btw? Did you buy it at a jingle-platform or was it a band you are friends with or how did it happen?

[@3rdimpact243]

you gotta check out Loathe - I Let It In And It Took Everything!

[@mollyesanborn]

LOVE that album! I actually did a review for it a while ago on my channel if you're interested :) kzbin.info/www/bejne/m6TGaHmOgtt6pJo
