Slipknot - Devil in I // Pastor Rob Reacts // Lyric Analysis

[@Bstonz85]

I cant get over this pastor. Hes actually willing to listen and review bands like slipknot and metallica.....and not judge.

[@ethancooper1560]

I can’t get over that people think it’s something special about a pastor listening to music. It’s 2021, and fear of music and artists are still alive. Very sad.

[@tristan702]

Well Metallica isn’t looked at as satanic by anyone other than Karens

[@HookahBarBusiness]

Corey Taylor explained the song's meaning to The Pulse of Radio: "'The Devil In I' is really about the war inside yourself," he said. "Trying not to give into defeatism, trying not to give into negativity, trying not to give up basically. It's a struggle. It's one of the hardest things you can do, is to give into that side of yourself." And that you can have fun. Crahan also explained at the song was about "finding past devils, past things, becoming one with it, and doing away with it."..

[@Cre8iveMud]

That's what I like about Corey. He is so articulate about history/scars. I like the song he did with Tech N9ne, as well.

[@edwinc2003]

So Craig is scared of dogs?

[@weja9779]

I’m pretty sure that was his dog. Also clown asked how they wanted to die. Chris chose crows because he is afraid of birds.

[@BlutigeTranen]

There's also symbolism in the killing of their old selves with their fears.

[@LeglessWonder]

And Corey died from his head exploding since he “suffers from LSD... lead singers disease”

[@fenrirwolf1132]

So... is Clown afraid of being hanged while in flames?

[@Hardwired_Productions]

Fun fact: they were asked. What death would you fear the most. Each scene is just that, death by their biggest fears.

[@greytheguitarguy2561]

Thats really interesting

[@6SageRamenGuy]

And when it came to clowns death he said that he would want it to be a mess for other people to clean up after himself. That's why he set himself on fire before hanging himself.

[@the_snapdragon7809]

As I get older and tired of elders and everyone in the church being so close minded to secular music, I LOVE this channel because they're open to it and respectful about it.

[@Lochlann13]

Of all the deaths shown, Mick's is the most poignant for me. He's well known for being the band member that takes his role in Slipknot the most seriously. His position in the band (#7) is important enough to him that he has it tattooed on his arm, and inlaid into his guitar fretboard. It's a part of who he is. The director of the video asked each band member which death scared them, and that's how each member was killed in the video. When Mick removes his mask, it tears his face off as well, because it's become part of his being. I think it's symbolic of his biggest fear: not being part of that brotherhood anymore. He'd rather die than lose his band.

[@cannonwilson5605]

Most maggots, me included, will tell you that we like their older stuff more. Specifically the first 2. Personally I love all of it. Have been a fan since '99. But the first two albums will always hold a special place in my heart

[@AndrewDembouski]

I love the first 2 albums, but WANYK is my favorite overall.

[@ChronicBreakdown]

I agree. I love all of it for different reasons, but self titled and Iowa hit different. We Are Not Your Kind was is a great album as well, reminds me of their older stuff a bit.

[@vincent2053]

Every album will Paul and Joey I love. The others are decent

[@neilpatel9296]

I think the reason that most people like Iowa and self-titled more than the others is because they are more raw and pure. All of their music is very emotionally powerful and intense, but those two albums in particular express those emotions much more powerfully than the others. That being said, their newer music expresses those same emotions in a much more refined way. It represents the band’s slow catharsis that happened throughout its life.

The graphic video was due to them getting new masks. They change their masks every so often and in the video, they killed off the old characters before debuting their new masks/personas. The gruesome deaths were tied to the band members' biggest fears.

Always love watching your reactions particularly when it's from my favourite band! Take care (ps the 3rd reaction was unsainted Rob, you were right) This is from Corey Taylor: Corey Taylor explained the song's meaning to The Pulse of Radio: "'The Devil In I' is really about the war inside yourself," he said. "Trying not to give into defeatism, trying not to give into negativity, trying not to give up basically. It's a struggle. It's one of the hardest things you can do, is to give into that side of yourself." And that you can have fun. Crahan also explained that the song was about "finding past devils, past things, becoming one with it, and doing away with it.".. I also read it was about shedding their former selves and the birth of a new beginning hence why their older masks and costumes were being killed off in wake of the birth of their new selves. So you were pretty spot on with you analysis Rob! Great stuff. I'm not a religious man but I really enjoy hearing your analysis on songs afterwards, you have a great understanding about psychology, all the teirs of human emotion and thanks to your channel I've been able to see the correlation between verses from the bible and almost every emotion people can go through and I can completely see how reading the bible would help people find themselves and heal. I never thought I would find such an interest in this but you're so well grounded between your relation with your beliefs and understanding of people it's hard not to appreciate and enjoy your work. Thanks again.

[@claudegibson7650]

From what I've read as well as what i percieve from it as well as the entire Grey Chapter album is moving on in life. You've grieved and mourned the loss but you have to let it go at some point or else it can consume you. I've lost alot of loved ones but none crippled me like the loss of my mom did. I had an unstable relationship with her and near the end it was almost non existent. She had alchohol and substance abbuse issues that i just couldn't deal with anymore. Before she died, my last words to her were not kind. Up until a couple of years ago, there were years of anger, guilt, pain, and confusion that i had refused to confront. If you don't bring those emotions out and confront them and lay them to rest, they can begin to alter your personality and your very being. Life is too short to be carrying such a burden.

Burying your past and trying to forget it will only lead you to repeating the same mistakes, not to mention the stress, anger and depression it can create. It is not good to obsess about your past or to dwell in it, but it is essential to acknowledge it and learn from it in order to move forward.

[@intense79nick]

As someone who suffers from repressed childhood trauma, PTSD, depression, and anxiety it all VERY much impacts you and the point of unpacking it all is to identify why you feel certain ways in reaction to other seemingly normal things (like someone wanting to help you but you lash out instead of accepting help due to learned behavior to be self sufficient), or why you have toxic behavior or have intrusive thoughts or can't control certain impulses. Once you have a clear picture of where it comes from you can learn healthy coping mechanisms and rebuild how your brain thinks. If these things go on for a long time, especially during adolescence, it impacts the development of your brain. Obviously we're all unique and react and handle these things differently due to our genetic makeup and specific experiences etc.

This one is from a time where the band was mourning for their bassist who had died and that is exactly what the song is about. Glad you took the time to really speak on it rather than just freaking out at the imagery, tho I expect that from you guys at this point. The video is an expression of anger against the injustice of losing a friend, combined with depression and feelings of self harm......cranked up to 11 for effect of course. It's supposed to be repulsive. Each band member is confronting a personal fear they have, birds, fire, dogs......ect. The entire package is a pure expression of grief and injustice, it really resonates with me because of it. The Freudian bit is part of it, but so is his survivior's guilt, IMO, his inability to help his friend, who was by all accounts the glue that held the band together. I should point out, Paul, the bassist, died of a drug overdose, if that helps contextualize the "turned your backs on everyone" line. Here he had his best friend, the glue of the band, going down the path of addiction and causing the band to all go into turmoil.

This song was also the first single to go out after loosing their former bassist and friend, all the deads in tbe video are there masks from the previous album. So it marks the passage from hard past to new future while fighting with your inner demons.

Can you do a react to "Popular Monster by Falling in Reverse"

[@dimeloluigi]

Please react to “Constance” by Spiritbox

[@alanzimmerman1674]

"Constance" or "Holy Roller" either one would be great. Spiritbox is such an excellent Metal band.

Y'all are gems. Kudos to you on taking on pieces of culture that many would not be willing to do.
