Slipknot



Slipknot (sometimes typeset as SlipKnoT in imitation of the logo) are an American nu metal band from Des Moines, Iowa. While the group has gone through several line-up changes, the band has remained unchanged since 1999 consisting of Sid Wilson, Joey Jordison, Paul Gray, Chris Fehn, Jim Root, Craig Jones, Shawn Crahan, Mick Thomson and Corey Taylor.
Slipknot's line-up allows the band to create a densely layered sound featuring a typical heavily down-tuned guitar set-up (lead, rhythm, and bass guitars), two percussionists in addition to the primary drummer, and electronics (samplers and turntables). The band's sound has been described as "a threshing machine devouring a military drum corps." The band also incorporates diverse vocal styles, typically involving growled vocals, melodic singing and even rapping while the lyrics generally follow a very aggressive tone.
Slipknot's root lie back as far as 1992 and eventually the band formed in November 1995. The band underwent many line-up changes before releasing their highly successful debut album Slipknot in 1999. Their popularity rose with this release, and they started become a popular nu metal band. Since which time they have released two other albums, Iowa and Vol. 3: (The Subliminal Verses). Slipknot are expected to release a fourth album in 2008.

Actually, I'd up the rating if they included that as part of the stage show.

I'm not a big fan of the "tune so low that you sound like ass" sound that became so trendy. I'm not a big fan of shock for the sake of shock, and I'm not huge on a bunch of assholes who can barely play relatively straightforward music. But if they could do something like that....

I used to love them back in the day so I am a bit partial so I will give them a 6.

Its kinda rough to listen to their old stuff nowadays although Corey's band Stone Sour sounds really good.
