Slipknot was my outlet throughout my middle and high school years with all the anger I had dealing with bullies and douchebags. Now looking back at it, I've become a stronger individual to fight back whoever is trying to bring me down. Thank you Slipknot for being there for me when I had no one to talk to and your music was my outlet for all the anger I had inside.

DamageIncM Yea it's like the only time I listen to them is for nostalgic reasons being a teenager trying to get through the rough times of high school, looking back its like wow, that was only a temporary thing, I'm into Hatebreed now but they speak more about daily life struggles and sacrifices, but will always appreciate Slipknot and similar bands for getting me through school and such

DamageIncM Too many bands nowadays on the radio that I know of have the same generic "indie" sound. It's not terrible and some of them have talent, but they lack the certain image that bands back in the day had that oozed charisma. I mean bands like Slipknot, Korn, Marilyn Manson, and Rob Zombie felt alive and like their own creation; now it's too much of the same. I don't even really listen to the radio anymore, but when I do I feel compelled to thrown in a CD. Back then it wasn't like that with them or Stone Temple Pilots, Pearl Jam, and Nirvana. Of course it's partly nostalgia talking, but someone should breathe life back into the mainstream music scene.

ShadowFoxZorua I'm glad it's no longer a major part of the mainstream music scene, now they're exactly where they need to be, with those that they've touched and they've helped get through the darkest times in their lives, I'm glad I can still go out in my now out of date jncos and kikwears, my ball chain wallet chain and my KoRn, Limp Bizkit, Slipknot or Fear Factory shirts and be completely comfortable in my skin it's taken so many years and finally at 28 I'm comfortable with myself after these guys have helped me through the bullying, the teasing, the profiling, the violence towards me and the ridicule, now I can say fuck the world and let it burn because I am who I am and the rest can go fuck themselves.

I was bullied like hell at school. I would consider high school some of the worst years in my life but I heard it could have been worse, as there are schools that have worse bullying. I was attacked verbally by unbelievably sharp tongued idiots, threatened and beaten a couple of times. So of course I obviously had a lot of rage built up, where I can go far as saying Slipknot helped me release all that frustration I locked in myself. Keeping it sealed is unhealthy and fortunately I discovered them. Clown understands how it feels and appreciate what he said in the video.

Awww I'm sorry :( I know what bullying is like, it happened to me too where I was ganged up on. But you know, some people have low self-esteem! Especially when you're a teenager. And a lot of times when you have low self-esteem, you might like to find a flaw in someone else and use that to your advantage like someone else is worse than you, or you might like to point that flaw out to that person and make them feel bad about it, or make another person laugh by putting someone else down! And it's really ignorant I mean come on if you have low self-esteem don't take it out on another person! Do something about it! Talk to a doctor or something!

Bullying sucks. I've been bullied my entire life, because I'm quiet, awkward, and just don't fit in. I've always tried so hard to fit in with the crowd, then high school came and I was like "wait, how is this benefitting me?" And now, I'm trying to be who I want to be, not a copy. I've even come out to my parents as transgender. It's made me more confident and brave.

I got through most of it pretending not to care and laugh and joke which people ended up liking so I became the clown but they say behind the clowns masks there are many tears. Trust me I agree with you one hundred percent.

i was suicidal at a young age because of bullying and domestic violence (against me), and i would have died without anyone ever telling me that they loved me or cared for me if it wasn't a failed attempt, and i just want to say that this is absolutly the best thing you can do for someone that is suicidal, talking to them comes in at a very close second. Little did i know that i would grow up to be loved by most people i meet and turned into a pretty good musician aswell, so i guess in the end my hardship gave me character and something to say, which i can't be mad about but i only have myself to thank for that. So to whom ever is struggling in life; stay strong and keep your head up because you will make it through it some day.

I was viciously bullied and now my bandmates and myself are on stages at some of the best venues in my state and we're due to play in 3 states in 2024 Never stop believing in yourself. I met Slipknot back in 2005 and they told me to chase my dream and go for it. I NEVER gave up because my heroes wouldn't. I am 32 years old today and Envoys from Taunton MA is now playing The Worcester Palladium on a regular basis and we're aiming to move to the next level. Slipknot saved my life and gave me a new one. "Gently my mind escapes to a relaxing world of pleasure. A pleasure that could take my mind off the reality of my life. My past life. Life as I know it now" Gently is my favorite song because it perfectly exemplifies what this band always was to me and continues to be to this day. My escape from this world.

Solid State I'm sorry but i have to disagree. They may seem to be secure but sometimes a false reality is a false reality. and if you've "never" bullied anyone yourself...so are false assumptions. Please don't take this as an attack as it isn't mean as a supercilious assumption as to your opinion, and everyone is entitled to their own, but the bullies I'VE come into contact with are not only insecure, but deeply disturbed...they just don't show it all the time. In fact, to actually back your point, one of THE biggest bullies I knew in HS was a popular, seemingly secure, intelligent (fuck the SAT's lol) varsity baseball player. Later on, after HS, he stalked and nearly killed an ex gf. So you can never be too sure. Secure? Nah...in my book, anyone who takes pleasure at the pain and degradation of others is not adjusted nor secure and spiritually enlightened, in any way, shape or form.... ...but to each their own-opinion and theory.

Corey told a story on that was put on here how the members fought the fans of Mushroom head after they threw stuff on the stage at them. You would expect Jim, Mick, and Clown to be in the front fighting. I would expect Jim to be neat. On the video of his equipment it was very neat and boy he had a lot of sound stage stuff on his garage. It just goes to show that sometimes when someone like Paul dies you have to look inward and not go down the path to destruction that Paul sadly went down.

I find that I have a piece of every band member in my personality as I think everyone can relate to everyone of the band in one way or another

I knew Ty when he was still alive, and we was really good friends! We was still in 6th grade before he took his life. It was definitely a life changing day when I found out he did what he did. He ALWAYS had root beer and beef jerky on him all the time lol. All he really ever wanted to talk about was hunting and baseball, and we talked all the time about it lol. All this time I never would have thought that an Iconic figure (in my opinion) like Clown would ever become friends with somebody from the small town of Perkins, Ok. Its really funny cause my history teacher looks alot like clown. Still miss Ty to this day, and we would be juniors in highschool together right now if he was still with us. Now hes upstairs probably hanging with paul, Randy, and Dime! R.I.P buddy!

Funny you say that right after I found out Paul Gray died I actually had a dream that several years later (2015ish) Slipknot went back on tour after a hiatus and introduced JASON NEWSTED as the new bassist...now I know for a fact this isn't going to happen but it was kinda cool in the dream to 'see' Jason give off this vibe with Slipknot that he gave 'tallica in the late 80s-early 90s. I don't think Slipknot's becoming Metallica but they are both great bands I frequently listen to =)

I weighed 38 pounds in high school. I got bullied until 11th grade. The school bully corned meand said take off your glasses Im gonna kick your ass.; I took them off and knocked that punk out. I think he needed stiches since he did bleed alot. Stand up for yourself. I did and no one would mess with me after that. If your big and strong help those smaller than you. That is what makes you man and truly brave, not pickihng on someone weaker or smaller. Rock On

He's like 50 cent in the sense that he has two sides, one is his showbiz side 50 Cent/Clown, the other is his personal side Curtis Jackson/Shawn Crahan

Also the video of Corey Taylor getting the Paul Gray memorial tattoo shows that Corey is a normal human just like all of us l. That video was extremely sad though 😢😢😢😥😥😥😥😥

That's still awesome. Always kind of knew that the death of Paul hit the hardest on Corey and you can tell he had a hard time moving on from it. Obviously you can never forget something like that, but for him it felt like it was holding him back and the band. Still, we all know that if Paul was alive today that he would never want the band quit. So what's your friendships with the others like Corey, Joey, Chris, Clown, Mick,Sid, and Craig?
@redmustang0312 жыл бұрын
Since you know him personally, I got one good question. Corey said in his Twitter account that they are making demos for the new album. How close are they to making new songs for the new album once the tour for this summer ends?
