Fun Fact: Whenever Slipknot played this live, the band would set each other on fire. And Corey still has burns on his legs from doing that live.

[@jhonnycagexrage7458]

Lol i remember that Sid Wilson lighted Corey's jumpsuit on fire and he was like all crazy trying to turn it off

[@FlipperWolf]

They didn't put themselves on fire everytime they played this song, you can see live footages of this song where they don't play with fire at all, also I think that Corey still having burns from that is more of an urban legend. Sorry to kill the magic kids :v

[@steve822009]

Killers are quiet is better.

[@you-ki8fd]

@ecollins320 it has bad production quality becuase THEY DIDNT HAVE FUCKING 9 MEMBERS ON EVERY INSTRUMENT POSSIBLE! also, anders did great, the reason Corey's performance is so great is becuase he was drunk and on drugs at the time, not shitting on Iowa at all. Great song. I just don't like it when people shit on songs that are pretty good. But you can have your opinion..

[@SirRunk666]

Very similar vibe to Korn's "Daddy", although the lyrics aren't as obvious and explicit. Also it was produced by the same guy (Ross Robinson) who did Korn's two first record and who is known to push the artists' buttons until they break down emotionally to get the most charged performance out of them. He made Jonathan Davis cry while recording "Daddy", and during this Corey Taylor broke down to the point where he tore all of his clothes off in frustration and puked all over himself. True story.

[@pawsan69]

That happened during recording the title track to Iowa

[@kenplotzke86]

Had the "daddy" vine to me too. Came to see if anyone else thought so too

[@MooseyFate100]

This is a good technique. But also probably not that popular in 2018

MooseyFate Well of course. It’s pretty brutal to get in results. But it worked for this tune

Corey cut himself with broken glass as well. You can actually hear him in pain in the song. That's him cutting himself. So fucking brutal. So sic

[@weissschnee1591]

[@Raijin-RyuX24]

Weiss Schnee why?

[@BFG-hv2ml]

@@Raijin-RyuX24 for me it is because of emotion and sound creativity they put in it

[@Raijin-RyuX24]

Not really a creative sound of it was pretty much a rip from another band. There is a difference between influences and straight rip off. But, if you enjoy it then that’s up to you. I disliked it and I dislike the band and genre as a whole.

Beatriz Rosewood clearly you haven’t heard both bands, looked at the time line and sound or watched the video. I’m not the only person who made that comment.

[@braydenxwhelan1490]

The song ‘Scissors’ is actually written by Slipknot’s then drummer, Joey Jordison, and is about a deranged man, mutilating himself with a pair of scissors, as a suicide attempt, and blaming it on the world. The song was the final song on Slipknot’s debut, but it wasn’t a hidden track, ‘Scissors’ is the final song played, before 5 minutes of silence, (in which the 9 members watch a scat porno called ‘Mudslide’) before the hidden track ‘Eeyore’ is introduced

[@thadavidrain]

This is one of the most uncomfortable Slipknot songs. You can't deny the atmosphere in this. It's just so dark, even for a Slipknot song. Makes the debut album even better too :) Suggestion: Pain of Salvation - A Trace of Blood

[@necro2658]

therainman IOWA is far darker. There’s a video of them playing it in 2016. It’s 20 minuets of pure darkness.

[@garyrobinson4790]

Lol

[@thadavidrain]

@@necro2658 Sorry, I only now saw your comment. Yes, Iowa is a far darker track and there's even Killers Are Quiet. I feel like Scissors has a certain vibe to it that makes me listen to it more than Iowa. They're both phenomenal though. Really like them.

[@LibadNobody]

Reminds me of a brutal version of Daddy (Korn) if you ask me because both end in freak outs, the only difference is one is crying the other is freaking out

[@KallosCrypt]

That song you mentioned that was hidden was actually Eeyore.

[@sic1six]

yup

Purity and Prosthetics are two other weird and awesome Slipknot songs from the first record.

[@befrnigel]

They already did Purity ^_^

[@thefilmeffect6089]

Yeah, but it was live. I hate when reactors listen to a live version before the studio. If you haven't heard the song before you lose a little something in the live setting. The only time this is acceptable is Pantera - Domination in Moscow. They need to do Angel Of Death again, too.

[@sicboi80]

[@gutsglory6991]

Slipknot is a band I turn to when I'm angry, especially given the fact that I'm naturally angry person (meaning while I don't get angry as easily, my outbursts can be unpleasant because I hold so much rage) and this band never failed to make me feel at ease through their violent and cathartic songs.

[@michaelrichards2524]

This is my favorite Slipknot song, because it contains the heaviest 10 seconds ever in the history of metal. And now, on to... Scar Symmetry - The Illusionist!!!

Check: Slipknot - Prosthetics. A song talk about the man with a love obssessed by a woman. The Lyrics inspired by book and movie "The Collector" check both too, because theses are masterpieces. The collector of butterflies who are in love by woman and do some crazy shits.

also follow that up with the virus of life, extremely similar song

[@EdmundKempersDartboard]

That song always made me really uncomfortable

[@dahlia817]

No vin you're wrong.. It's not scissors is the hidden song. Eeyore," a hidden track at the end of "Scissors," plays after a dialogue among band members that was recorded while they were viewing a scene in a pornographic movie involving coprophilia. The song describes Taylor's rage against a man who issued a death threat to him during a Slipknot concert. It has been played live many times and appears on both the DVD Disasterpieces and the live album 9.0: Live.

[@VinAndSori]

Good call

[@sgtbootycheeks7874]

Eeyore isn't about a death threat. Look it up on KZbin. It's about a guy who was very big and muscular and he was always a dick at shows. Although, one day the mosh pit ganged up on him and beat him up.

[@sun-dye9565]

iSnipezYa was just about to reply this.

[@shanksmcnasty6650]

Lol a death threat.. people will just believe anything and run with it. Like dude said, in an interview Corey himself clearly says its about a giant blonde dude they called Thore and wad the dick in the mosh pit until everyone tuned his ass up

[@dipemducks4776]

its about the dick in the pit

[@bobbyl2528]

Song was written by Joey Jordison about self harm, the last few lines were improvised by Corey Taylor about drug abuse.

[@jameslewandoski8442]

I always took it as Sissors to cut the ties of a relationship. After my marriage fell apart, this song expressed the emotions that I went through! For me the purge was purging her from my life. That is the great thing about music. Depending on the events in your life and events that you are dealing with. A song could have so many meanings, for an individual to take from it!

[@dontpissoffraccoons]

well the song was originally called "heartache and a pair of scissors"

[@BlackSailPass_GuitarCovers]

I always took a more literal meaning. The character has drugged himself and proceeds to mutilate his own body and rant against the people who've hurt him until he dies.

[@1981bjones]

I love that song, the middle section of the song would get stuck in my head for days on end with that drum beat prior to the “biding my time...” part. Love it still, almost 20 years later.

[@emelielonnberg.]

Thank you for this reaction, it definitely brought back some memories. This album helped me through allot of of my childhood traumas. I have never felt such a relief like I did with Slipknot.

[@Justynbrodsky123]

This song is an absolute gem. It’s the extreme cinema of music. Great shock value.

[@SlendermansMinion]

Alex Gaming he’s talking about Joey’s name lmao there’s no N in his name

[@theundergroundviking]

Ehhhh. They were only formed a year apart so I wouldn't say there was "alot" of influence. Maybe some mutual respect but it's not like slipknot formed 7 years after them. It was one year and Korn didn't have like any serious hits yet. I mean they had Blind. But that wasn't even originally a korn song. Head and Jonathan both look up to Corey traylor and Shawn so I just don't see what you said as factual. Plus everyone in slipknot will tell you to take shit joey says with a grain of salt. He wasnt even a primary writer at first. He actually never was.

[@ombre_blanco1725]

They named themselves from their song slipknot, which got its name from the slipknot dreams ability from the Werewolf : The Apocalypse game that Anders like to play

[@toolandmaynard]

The drumming on this track, blew my mind when I first heard it, still does!

[@mrmoth2487]

15:46 It's mostly about self-harm, except for the last part which is about addiction and was improvised by Corey.

I wanted to learn this song on guitar until I found out the tuning they use for it. Slipknot typically uses drop B or Drop A tuning which is SUPER low compared to standard E tuning for guitar. What they do is use drop B tuning and tune the 6th string from the low B to down to an F# which is a whole octave lower than than the 5th string which is also F#. How crazy is that?

[@sebastianjimenezrodriguez1501]

How crazy is playing the whole Mick's part?

[@williamkramer9731]

It's not crazy at all. Extremely heavy gauge strings and pending how your guitar strings you might have to drill holes out a little. I always used not even slinky's and dropped to b. The 7 during usually drops to a drop G#

Vincent, you mention this as the original album. Have you heard/heard of Mate Feed Kill Repeat? While it wasn't released by a label, it was kinda sorta the original Slipknot album. They claim it to be a demo but it was sold at shows and it's pretty easy to come across. It came out in 1996, had a different vocalist (Anders Colsefini), and a wildly different sound with much prominent bass and some straight up funk moments (not even kidding on that btw).

[@thelockedsniper7334]

Some people self harm with scissors when they don’t have anything else so in my mind this song means more then one thing but mainly it focuses on on self harm and reasons causing it and when he says you want it you need it it has a double meaning like I used to self harm and that’s honestly how it felt it was an addiction and it is also something to do with drug addiction maybe this song is flat out about addiction in general maybe it’s a combination of drugs, self harm, and sex but this song definitely has themes from all of those topics I could be completely wrong but my theory remains that all of these topics are implied in this song and all of them are connected with self harm being the undertone addiction with drugs and meaningless sex being addiction that are making the undertone addiction more necessary

i think the song is about being stuck in a toxic relationship and the mental strain it has on you, Corey talks about cutting his heart open (as in falling in love with someone, and doing anything he could for them) he also talks about drugs to numb the pain and how the drugs made him a numb person. cutting himself and doing drugs became normal to him and he changed.
