Honestly, I think this is one of the most underrated slipknot songs. Absolutely amazing cover dude

[@AXRBiKeCoMpAnY]

Slipknot's darkest and most insane song they have done. The emotional battery this song brings on to listeners is just nuts. Josh, you should have been Joey's replacement. You are unparalleled and truly astonishing.

[@joshsteffen]

Thanks!

[@Thedeadjoker666]

I just love how alive Joey Jordison's drumming is. New things happening all the time like they have a life on their own.

Dude, it's hilarious when you give the hand gesture of "meh". As if you didn't just fucking nail it. I love your modesty, refreshing. Your timing is your best attribute, and you're a great drummer. I work in the music industry out in Hollywood, you stack up with pretty much most drummers I've worked with.

this is the PERFECT scissors drum cover

[@justinkendell3320]

Holy Shit!!! I've never been able to comprehend the crazy ending part, but you sir have made a noticeable difference on how I view the way Joey Jordison is such a fuckin genius. Thanks for uploading this man! Seriously, I know how hard Slipknot is to play cuz I've been trying for years and this is just perfect! Still waiting for some DevilDriver. I know you'll come around dude. Keep beating the shit out of that drum set!!

[@joshsteffen]

+Justin Kendell this was hard. I never thought I'd do it. This song descends into chaos

[@joeymoehlenkamp1097]

That part was actually improvised!

[@HentaiTrapLord]

@@joeymoehlenkamp1097 How Josh managed to perfectly cover pure, improvised chaos is just way beyond my comprehension. That's insane!

[@danielgoats]

This is one of those songs that only the creators can play, extremely difficult to cover.... and you nailed it. ... just wow

[@joshsteffen]

I always had that feeling too.

[@simoncarlsson598]

Good job! I had missed this one. It aint an easy one to cover, atleast I don't think so. The vocals on this one are intense too. There are no better records to listen to when pissed or bitter about something than Slipknots first two for me atleast. Raw as it gets.

[@Roderik95]

+Simon Carlsson There is no band like Slipknot to bring out the straight up anger, hate and madness. Atleast their earlier stuff. So good.

[@paulpv7]

i agree but st anger & my world from Metallica work pretty good as well.

[@HentaiTrapLord]

@@wm1573 There ain't nothin' glam about that era of Metallica.

[@HentaiTrapLord]

In my opinion, I think that Vol. 3 could be added on to that. There were a lot of songs on that album that were just very pissed off sounding. I thought WANYK sounded pretty angry, too, on some songs.

[@craineyfit8619]

Possibly one of the most spot on covers. Your style but maaaan you killed this.

[@Intect2013]

I play Slipknot on drums since 2001, but you are my hero! Bass drum and toms sound exactly like Joeys drums on 1999 album!

[@drummeruk4044]

It's so amazing to see someone else inside Joey's head. This brings out so much more in the creation of slipknot and their drummer. I thank you sir! That was literally the best thing I have ever seen!

Much respect brother for covering this song knowing that it won't have as many views as the "more popular" ones. This says a lot about you as a drummer and person. One request: could you possibly do "The Virus of Life" or "Gehenna"? Thanks mate
