[solarfall_]

Slipknot and CKY!??! This is the worst news ever. I'd rather not know about this shit..Death was my favorite band, how DARE them have shitholes cover their songs.

 

[C-Taylor]

dont try and be so hard core for fuck sake, not like its Joey trying to play guitar for them, Mick is worth a shit Deron miller though.. hmm, he's got some good things on some pre-CKY shit... Foreign Objects I think?

 

[Pancakes]

deron miller is a huge death fan and a great guitarist his old band foreign objects is tech death. and mick from slipknot is a very good guitarist in his solo work but not slipknot

 

[inferior_devotee]

really dont care this is still a disgrace to chuck

 

[Extreme Deformity]

It's a disgrace? Fuck you guys. You haven't even heard it yet, and already you've passed judgement on the album. James Murphy is no amateur, he knows what he's doing, and if the musicians he's picking can play the stuff and play it well, then I say let them, no matter what bands they're in.

 

[asphyXy]

he could've picked musicians with better reputations..

 

[C-Taylor]

Why do that? He could be wanting to bring up the reputations of these musicians. Slipknot isnt going to be around for long, and by no means does Slipknot use any technical guitar work, so Mick obviously wants to show what he can do outside some cd worth 3 minutes for a magazine. Dont judge what you havent heard, thats just stupidity and ignorance.

 

[BRUTAL SENSATION]

ive also read that Ross from Immolation will also be doing some work on the album....it willl sure be interesting to hear the final product of this....

 

[MeltingSnowman]

I really want to ear how that will sound

 

[AceRoccola]

I completely agree with Extreme Deformity and C-Taylor, wait until you actually hear it to talk shit about it, especially considering that the musicians you're complaining about are better than you know.

 

[dill_the_devil]

Why exactly is it a disgrace to Chuck? I mean, surely it shows that his influence as a songwriter and guitarist has spread to areas outside the underground music scene? They're paying tribute to his talent for Christ's sake, not walking up and pissing on his grave. I couldn't give a shit who performs on the tribute album as long as they can do justice to the songs... and since none of us have heard the album yet, none of us are qualified to judge who is 'worthy' to play on the album or not.
Do you think Chuck would have wanted to see this kind of petty pissing and moaning? Most of you seem to be missing the point altogether in a rush to cry heresy...

 

[MardyAss]

well, if Paul and Mick pull Corey and Joey with 'em, and they pulled them selves together, they might actually pull it off.

 

[C-Taylor]

Paul mick corey and joey would make a brilliant band if they put their best into it.. but it wouldnt be a Death tribute. It shouldnt matter if it was a blink 182 guitarist doing the tribute... they are showing that they appreciate what the band done and that they enjoyed their music to the fullest...

 

[Rottuated]

Mick is actually a good shredder, dispite what people think. It's sad he's in such a shitty band like Slipknot. His talent will never shine with them. I have somewhat of a respect for Slipknot, because they helped raise money for Chuck when he was ill.
