They're okay. Some songs aren't my cup of tea, but when they drop a good one, it's noticeable. "Vermillion, Pt. 2" is a beautiful song. "Eyeless" was a favorite song in my youth. Looking back at it now, I was kind of fucked up, LOL. "Sic" was fantastic, too. I still use this when hitting the punching bag. And of course, "Wait and Bleed". The song that brought them to the attention of the mainstream, at least that is how I remember it. This song hit MTV, and it just took off.
I really enjoy Slipknot, to the point of having Snuff as my favourite song. But I'm not really a fan of their first two albums, but the rest of their discography is pretty awesome.
I really like them~ I think they're pretty chill and a good listen~ They have a good mix of screaming and singing abilities, (which a lot of bands have trouble with) and I feel I can really mellow out listening to them ^.^
So~ I started listening to them more... and ended up buying 2 of their albums off of amazon and listening to a bunch of the songs on repeat XD;;;; I guess I liked them more than I thought XD;;; Thanks for the thread, poetofdarkness ^.^
I've heard alot about them, but actually only know 1-2 songs. I prefer other bands, but they arent bad, I just never took the time to really listen to them.
Wouldn't call myself a maggot, but I do enjoy their self-titled debut, as well as Volume 3. Love seeing other metalheads on this forum. Hails \m/
