[@Sentiment_dying]

Full of hate and anger. Iowa was their most unique album ever. They can't make heavier album since Iowa. And that's his vocals glory days

[@TyroneBiggins81]

Slipknot was at their peak when Joey and Paul were still around.

[@neilpatrickhairless]

Oh for sure. The OG Slipknot died with those two. Especially Paul

[@Fryepod3628]

Yep. Them bass and drum tracks are mixed so well you can tell that's always been the foundation of a slipknot song. Sic Bass and Drum version is possibly better than Sic itself when one here's how perfectly they play off eachother.

[@slipknot95maggot]

While I'm here, do you feel the same way about Mate Feed Kill Repeat....? Or did you not actually say what you meant....?

[@the_bogeyman.]

Saw them live 20 years ago, few months after vol.3 release. I remember a great show and really good sound.

[@JMulvy]

I think I mentioned this before but one common trope in Slipknot videos is people going underground. In their videos it symbolizes burying the past, specifically something related to the person who is going underground. This song is about Corey's time living on the streets after dropping out of high school and all the people he met and formed connections with who he let slip away after the band got signed. So it is full of regret and remorse, but rather than do something about it, he would rather just bury it and move on. Which is how many people deal with things but at the same time they fail to realize how it effects the people on the other side of the equation, or they simply no longer care about those people. If you haven't heard it yet try "Scissors". It is a Maggot fan-favorite and considered a hidden gem of a Slipknot song. It is super-raw and rage-filled. It doesn't follow any common song structure either.

[@jxstified7558]

Shawn's best mask imo.

[@neilpatrickhairless]

idk there's something inherently weird AND funny about the original one. its smiling too much

[@DiskoKDiskoL]

best everything

[@jeffersonalexanderleivamar8929]

His best mask ever!

[@Nightopian1982]

I still prefer the first one. That one for me encapsulated how sinister clowns appear. It didn't require anything evil or bizarre looking.

[@kooln]

I honestly think his new masks are ugly AF.

[@ColtonWilson3000]

My favourite slipknot song. Love this band, I have since high school. Rip Joey. Best drummer ever

You're down a spiral of metalheads recommending about 100 iconic and famous songs, plus 100 underrated more and I'm here for it.

[@norsegamingtv1686]

Slipknot isn't metal

[@Blueschy]

​@@norsegamingtv1686nu "METAL"

[@norsegamingtv1686]

@@Blueschy Not metal..Nu Metal was actually placed with Alternative rock during 2010. If you go to the metal archives no nu metal bands nor metalcore bands are listed in there and it's pretty accurate. Also Nu metal bands are actually listed in Alternative rock in record stores. Metal bands like Eluveitie or Nightwish are listed in metal..also you wanna get technical about it bands like Slipknot, Korn and System of A Down or Linkin Park literally don't have that metal sounds or riffs. Harsh vocals or playing hard doesn't credit them as metal. Maybe influenced by metal but still doesn't make them a metal band. Alternative rock are the correct sub genre for those bands. Go listen to Eluveitie vs Slipknot and trust me the sounds are vastly different and actually Eluveitie is a much harder band than Slipknot.

Corey has said this song was inspired by a period of time when he was homeless.

[@sumonjamal1653]

FYI - this music video for 'Left behind' was 1 of 2 versions made... This one was aired on MTV. The second version had a different ending w/ the boy shown back at his job putting on a meat display w/ the tag "Goat meat"... and smiling ominously... This was a huge single for Slipknot back in 2001 for their 2nd album 'Iowa'... I can't believe it has been 20+ years since! The late Paul Gray (bass) and Joey Jordison (drums) were in the band... and sadly now, Chris Fehn (percussion) and Craig Jones (keyboard/ samples) are both out of Slipknot and we got 5 of the original 9.

[@Light_Incarnate1999]

Your channel has become one of my favorites not only bc you are beautiful and cover all kinds of music but mainly bc ur humor and vibe! just subscribed! And Goats are always SUS😂

[@VolBeat2412.]

actually there's another version where that kid goes to hide at a basement and covers his face with goat's blood

[@kingirl3901]

0:34 that face is pure gold 🤣🤣 You're adorable.

Love everything about this song. The lyrics, the video, the masks, the riff, everything is perfection.

Great reaction this song by slipknot is one of my favourites from the band's album iowa the music video is disturbingly creepy & unhinged this song still slaps the first time i heard it back in 2001 & never gets old keep the reactions coming well done.🙂❤🤘🔥

[@stanleyhyde8529]

Unhinged is a good word to use to discribe this band throughout the making and touring for this album. Believe it or not, this is one of the tamer songs on it. They were all pretty messed up in a lot of ways at the time of the making of this album. If you want a glimpse into a bit of Corey's childhood and how messed up it was, Metabolic off the same album. Also my favorite track and the one I relate to the best.

[@DeusEx1977]

The opening riffs in this song sound downright evil. I think the only other song of theirs that has similarly wicked sounding riffs is "The Devil in I"

A lot of the video is extremely metaphorical for example at the end the kids still The Rock in the window he's had enough he's going to the seller because the storm is coming, his anger his rage is the storm and what do you do when a storm comes you hide.

[@mazranger148]

One of slipknots mainstream song, a mellow and a soft one

[@neilpatrickhairless]

Definitely pissed off villain vibes. As I commented below on the question about the goat(s) - Getting someone's goat is an old saying from farmers. If you get someone's goat that means you took something worth something big to a person that has messed with you. Like literally stealing a goat from the shitty neighbor's farm and costing them what makes them money, for example. That's what the visual of all the goats mean on IOWA.

[@Ville783]

This song isn’t about a murderer, its a song about Corey Taylor when he was homeless. He had made relationships with people that he would soon have to Leave behind.

[@PsychoUndSoXD]

Good reaction. You should react to some of the mentions I give you now :) Escape the Fate - Ungratful Bullet for my Valentine - Tears don't fall Black Veil Brides - Goodbye Agony Fields of the Nephilim - Vet for the Insane Xandria - Soulcrusher I think you like it and you will not regret it :)

Comments on the villianous vibes/serial killer origin of the kid from the butcher shop. Doesn't seem to notice that it was the kid's 'first victim' that opened hostilities by throwing a rock at the kid through the window of the kid's house; the wreck of a home, that was probably wonderful in its prime, which the kid does his best to support with the job at the butcher shop, in a society that obviously feels no qualms about a kid working in a butcher shop to support himself. Or perhaps the butcher is his legal guardian and is capitalizing on the free labor he can extort from his ward, the whole time dreading the kid's talent and passion for the bloody work. But he does it for free, so why consider the kid's mental state when he's an enthusiastic, profit-boosting slave? I'm of the opinion that there aren't _any_ good guys in this story, but some of these guys are worse than the others. On many levels. Lyrically, you have the scattered thoughts of a grieving, paranoid, isolated soul warning the insentient seeming monsters around him that his boundaries _are_ inviolate, defense _will_ be swift, and that they are advised to adjust their engagement ranges accordingly. The image of Slipknot: _Are_ they monsters? Or do they _present_ as monsters to keep the true monsters from realizing they are prey? Answer that question honestly, dear reader. Know you are also not maskless. And in the performance scenes, you see that the goats are all fairly calm despite the madness going on around them, and I have to conclude that it probably wasn't all that loud when the goats were on set, and that they had rehearsed with the goats, in costume and fake rain, for a week or two before filming so that all the active nervous systems present would get used to the lunacy.
