I like Vol. 3: (The Subliminal Verses). Good album. And just a few songs from their earlier albums.

They fell off the planet for me after Iowa... That Vol. 3 crap was garbage, and they pretty much developed into the same trendy band followed by mallrats around the world that they preached against when they first came out...

This last album was better than Vol. 3, but still not all that great...

I prefer my metal to take talented musicians... not gimmicky stuff that tends to run it's course...

Corey will always be one of my favorite hard style vocalists... and Joey Jordison is one of the best drummers ever... but I can't really say too much about the other guys... Mick and Jim are okay, but I lean more towards technical guitarists...

I've met Jim and took my picture with him way back in the day... back when they still tried to hide their faces... He was a super cool dude, and I wish nothing but the best for Slipknot (not like they haven't dominated the late teen circuit already)...

Really? I found Vol. 3 to be really good. It was fairly melodic with awesome riffs, the singing was really good, and the drumming was amazing. And it was mixed pretty well. Their other albums didn't even compare IMO. They sounded messy and all over the place.

And yes, I agree. Dream Theater ftw. Though their last two albums I didn't care too much for.

Iowa was their peak for me... very well produced album, and originality still in the songs...

Vol 3. didn't even have any cursing in it, and was catered to the emo kids that were gravitating towards their fanbase...

It was a smart thing from a business/marketing standpoint, but nothing will ever top songs like People = poo, Heretic Anthem, or even stuff like (sic) off the original album...

The original album was produced in a way that made it sound raw and chaotic... If I am not mistaken, it was Ross Robinson who produced that one, and he has some good stuff under his belt...

Yes, the fat ugly kids... if I remember Fred Durst's statement correctly..

This guy

From wikipedia

After Durst referred to Slipknot's fans as "fat ugly kids", Shawn Crahan, one of Slipknot's percussionists, threatened violence against him if he criticized their fans again, and Slipknot lead singer Corey Taylor later said in an interview with MuchMusic that he saw Durst as a great businessman, but not as an artist. In a 2001 post on Limp Bizkit's website, Durst disputed the perceived ill will against Slipknot. He was quoted as writing, "We really like Slipknot and are very happy that they hate us, because it makes their music heavier, angrier and real!"[12] This quote angered Chris Fehn, one of Slipknot's other percussionists. Fehn later described Durst as being "...scared of us [slipknot]"

I agree. Vol.3 had a few respectable tracks, but too commercialized for what they did with Iowa.

      The Carolina Panthers should go back to Bryce Young

      By Luciu5 · Posted

      I think these reps Bryce is getting in garbage time are supposed to be somethign of a PROVE IT moment for him, except he keeps proving he is incapable of moving the ball. Bryce has shown repeatedly that with him under center, this team simply cannot score points at all. Andy can. 2 of the last 4 losses were winnable games with Andy in. I cannot remember the last time we had a winnable game with Bryce on the field.

      Trade everyone and fully rebuild..

      I'm not saying Chubba want to resign here. To be honest I don't know why anyone would ever come to Carolina unless it was for a boat load of money and that person had no interest in winning. As for keeping Hubbard, I don't see a problems with it if the deal is reasonable pricewise. We have a 2nd round back coming off an ACL tear. We have no ide how he is going to play upon his return. These days you pretty much have to have 2 backs to ease the RB workload. The days of the 25-30 carry per game are long gone. Brooks contract is pretty cheap. If Hubbard came back around 4-5 million for 3 seasons that wouldn't break us.  And, if you did trade him at the deadline, what are you expecting in return? Most likely a 4th. Is that really going yo move the needle? Nope.  If a player want to be moved this season and you can get a good return, that's one thing. But the idea of trading "all expiring contracts today" is unreasonable. We don't have anyone on this roster who is going to fetch more than a 3rd/4th round pick. I don't see a player on our roster who is going to put another team over the hump. Furthermore, it's not like we have a FO with a good track record nailing their draft picks. If they did we wouldn't be in the current predicament.
