@@MusicCatsandCoffee I know you see it every day. But please react to Iowa. It's an interesting song. Very emotional and empty

[@everyonelovesmajima]

Volume 3 is where you start hearing a difference between Jim and Mick, specifically Jim really starts developing his own style. For the most part, Mick is more metal-y and heavy and Jim is much more melodic and moodier and that's just totally their sound now. It was super ballsy to put this album out right after Iowa, too. Definitely don't sleep on Prelude 3.0.

[@ignis_infinitus_infernus]

Love the title lol, you've got a real comedy bone.

[@rybo0072]

I believe the songs about Corey feeling pressured to be pissed off and angry just to be able to write songs anymore and him feeling trapped by the record label because he didn't feel that way anymore which in turn led him to massively lash out because he was feeling tossed aside

8:05 - Yep! This section right here is the number one reason that I've recommended this song to you before. I know how much you appreciate the drumming in Slipknot's tracks, but I this may be some of the best they have to offer. It's such a cool section, but the song is just badass overall. I'm glad you liked it.

You're right with the albums. They really want to go all out without being commercial. They're making one more album with Road Runner company then I think on their own or just be done. I'm not sure.

Can you feel this?! A banger indeed, Corey.

[@JTCastiel]

The undertaker is doing the noodly guitar This song live is just absolutely amazing I get what you said about how their music changed. But i really think WANYK is a mix of everything I love about slipknot, including the more experimental stuff. Check out My pain, is a amazing song with that weirdness of the first albuns. Your reactions are always the best :D

[@jlm10181978]

WANYK musically is closer to self titled and Iowa but lyrically is more vol 3 and AHIG in my opinion.

[@kud1695]

Noodly guitar is done by Mick. Usually Mick is playing on the right side of your headphone and Jim is on the left. Except the Iowa album it’s the opposite

[@MusicCatsandCoffee]

How cool is that?! I'll have to pay more attention to that now.

[@MrMaycek]

Sarcastrophe is a really underrated song you should check out, I think you'd like it, love the reactions.

Slipknot have a new album coming out soonish Clown has been talking about it here & there in interviews saying this is a Slipknot u never heard before plus he said & i quote I've never heard Corey like this before Corey is on some level of singing which I've never heard before & it makes me really emotional

[@bloatwarerejuvenation]

Yes i heard about it too, im intrigued how they gonna surprise us this time 👀

[@tbwkn]

Stuff from the first three albums will make up your entire top ten list when you are done

[@tbwkn]

You can't be as angry in your 40's as you were in your 20's. That would not be healthy

[@jumpyplays]

I was waiting for this one. Definitely makes my top 3, and you can see why. The 'noodly' guitar sections are by Mick. There's a video somewhere on YT where where both Mick and Jim are doing a playthrough of the intro, if you wanna watch that at some point. I'd recommend reacting the live version from Download 2009, if you enjoyed the song, you will definitely enjoy this version. I also knew you'd love reacting to this, since you mentioned you used to be in a marching band, and the sole reason why it was suggested. Great video as always :)

[@MusicCatsandCoffee]

This would be a good choice for a live video for sure :)

[@jumpyplays]

@@MusicCatsandCoffee Just a pre-warning, if you're doing the reaction, you may have to censor some stuff since the video contains a small amount of flashing in the crowd lol

[@billbill3915]

I'd suggest doing the song Gently, from their live show in London in 2002. It's pretty fuckin' cool.

[@jamescrawford_wirdnam]

Just found your channel, I have to admit that I love your breakdowns and interpretations of the songs. I don’t believe you can have a slipknot top 10. A top 25 is more fitting. As you mentioned in some of your other videos, the range and diversity of the band is insane. You should really check out StoneSour, this is Corey and Jim’s other band and a completely different side of them.

[@SteveFrank111]

This is the album that got me into Slipknot. So good. Pretty sure this is the first record they noodled on, too. You can usually tell them apart. Jim typically plays on his neck pickup with a ton of legato. So I checked and verified that these noodles are Mick's.

[@MusicCatsandCoffee]

I have no idea what you're saying. :D That's why I just call it "guitar stuff."

[@tbwkn]

The look on your face when you're trying to figure out the (meaning) lyrics

[@jeffpattonmagic4914]

So it would seem to me that Vol. 3 and We Are Not Your Kind are your favorites haha Okay this is how I quantify it •Self titled was raw unfiltered anger in all directions. •Iowa took that anger, focused in and dialed it up. •Vol. 3 was when they started more artistically expressing themselves and following with what they found fulfilling. •All Hope Is Gone came at the bands breaking point, they were starting to implode and in their words "went through the motions and phoned it in" with a very commercial streamlined album that was just checking boxes. Then Paul died. Paul Gray was a wake up call that really put things into perspective for everyone and shook everyone out if it. •.5 the Gray Chapter was them processing their emotions and saying goodbye to their brother, it was a true throwback to the self titled sound and attitude, but with a slicker production. •And then finally came We Are Not Your Kind, the band was firing at cylinders again, and now that grief and their own egos weren't in the way, went back to that artistic vision they were expressing back with Vol. 3. I forget who said it, Jim Corey or Clown, but they said We Are Not Your Kind slips perfectly inbetween Iowa and Vol. 3, and I couldn't have said it better.

[@my_artflare]

You perfectly described that well!

[@MusicCatsandCoffee]

This all makes a lot of sense to me. BUT Snuff is on AHIG! The greatest thing they will ever do. LOL

[@jeffpattonmagic4914]

@@MusicCatsandCoffee To be clear, majority of the members say AHIG is their least favourite, (except for Snuff), Clown saying something to the effect of "It's too efficient, there's no pain no struggle, that's not good for what we do." And I agree to an extent, AHIG is the least "personal" of all the albums lyrically, you'll feel that when you start doing AHIG deepcuts. but PERSONALLY it's my second favourite record of theirs. Every album is a vibe and I happen to vibe hard with AHIG. It's easy listening for me, I can throw it on no matter the mood and have a good time. Most of the maggots would crucify me for my ranking of the albums tbh

[@evantaylor2935]

I'm so excited for the Negative One reaction, definitely the best, or one of the best, songs on .5.

[@StirbMensch]

Well... you're not wrong at all regarding their different eras - each one of their albums represent different stages in their life... and one can really appreciate how they matured across the decades. One thing's for sure - they're far from repetitive! They definitely have a unique sound that is totally theirs... but they managed to remain original and rather impactful on the mainstream metal scene.

[@atomicr4y472]

Lauren I know you like the synced up headbanging so if you watch this song live at Big Day Out you will love it.

[@huntergearling3815]

I love this song and the music video, especially since to my knowledge it didn't get edited, but granted this album featured little to no explicit lyrics. Here's also what I learned about this song. It's about how everything that they have said in their songs does exist and is part of the band's inner workings. Kind of like... I guess you could call it a song on how complacent (not caring at all) people are can be sometimes, and that as much as he tries to show himself..he still is called the same thing (chemical burns and the animalistic, I'm just another hardline psuedo-statistic...i'm just another blank face, pushing-button pull the rage)

[@CaioViniciusMaciel21]

I told you it was good. That song is their most underrated song ever! And the song is about Corey's evolution as a musician inside the music industry, I think you can get it from the lines "Blood on the paper and skin on my teeth" and "Can you stay if you detach your soul?" The song is absolutely amazing in all senses, it's perfect. That's why I say it's their most underrated song of all times. I'm happy that you also loved it like me, ok, maybe not like me. Haha. Keep it up! ~ Ps: I noticed a little headbanging at 7:37 or am I wrong? Hehe

[@damcrazy26]

So I feel like this is a major tension point between maggots. Some hate that they change their sound between albums, and some love that they don’t repeat themselves or have the same vibe album to album. I’m in the latter group, because I love having Slipknot songs to jam out to no matter what mood I’m in, but to each their own.

[@NeverSainted]

The only album I consider to be heavily commercial is All Hope Is Gone. It doesn’t make it bad, it just is what it is. That’s also why there was a lot of tension within the band while recording it. I’ve mentioned this before but you might have better luck with your blocked videos if you re-upload them with a watermark over the original source video. That usually helps videos get unblocked.

[@MusicCatsandCoffee]

I must admit, I don't know how to do the watermark thing but that's a good idea.

[@NeverSainted]

@@MusicCatsandCoffee See if this works it’s the only free one I could find. There may be better paid video editors that let you add a custom watermark but I don’t like the idea of advertising for a paid program. www.kapwing.com/tools/watermark-video If that doesn’t work, whatever you already use to edit your videos may have a way to add text or an image of some kind over your source video.
