This is not metal. You probably dont know what real metal is.

[@bigupliquidchilli8709]

jottaz1 It's Nu-Metal. Nu-METAL. Dipshit.

[@jottaz144]

No Dipshit. Im sorry as it clearly hurt your feelings. But Nu-Metal is not a form of metal and its not true metal. Its the same genre as limp bizkit and pappa roach, and its made only to sell. Thats why all the nu metal bands are sellouts, just like slipknot who went from being hard to singing melodic progressive pussy rock. Its not me who says it, its the whole real metal culture. They shun Nu metal bands. I like slipknot, but i dont care facing the reality.

Penguinssss -- I don't think either party has really aired the laundry on it, but yes, they removed Joey from the band some time after Paul Gray passed away, and then brought on the current bassist and drummer for .5TGC going forward.

IKR??? I thought that was great. I just don't get though why all these years he hasn't brought them on his new show, TBS brought Disturbed on, why not Slipknot since Conan loves them? Is TBS really that picky?

This is their best performance ever in my opinion, They where at the height of their popularity and hated one another, plus this was right before they all started making money so that hunger in there was added, plus this puts to rest their use of lights, fog and other live special efx, as a crutch, just them their instruments and a audience that was 30 feet away.

[@COBHC8890]

The Slipknot Disasterpiece Dvd is the best concert EVER recorded. They just captured that violence, hate, and aggression so well. I don't think there is any other band that will ever top Slipknots self titled, and Iowa album.

[@RMMaryport]

Pull your head out of your arse

[@pianistor555]

In attitude and aggression it's really hard to top. But the music itself it's debatable, there are plenty of satanic death metal /black metal bands that sound darker and heavier.
