okayokay .. @lisra
it was the death magnetic release date, and i was in your homet0wn to tallica live @ o2 arena
and i was kinda .. drunk i guess, and so i stepped into the galleria kaufhof @ ostbahnhof (?!), and i saw this bushido best of cd for 5,99 i know that he used the melody of metal bands for beats and blabla. and i thought it was funny -.- well it wasnt ... crap CD .. i dont even know where the CD is now
Yeah I do, just to pick some good moments that come to mind while skipping through the cd:
The My Plague chorus, the tempo change in Gently, Left Behind chorus, The Shape intro,
Just in general I think it's a good album, 'cause it's got a lot of different songs/sounds/textures, the songs are really well written, it's groovy, well-performed, energetic... etc.
It's a shame that a lot of people go with all the slipknot-bashing cause they pay more mind to their fanbase instead of the music. But I guess that's a sign of popularity (not that there's a doubt slipknot are popular)
I care about the music. Musically it's just a drumfest with non-existant guitar play except the standard 00100012 '99 nu metal patterns. Now that nu metal is dead they've done an equally bad Machine Head jump on the Pantera/Metalcore wagon move. The only good moments to me in Slipknot is when he sings clean tbh, he's got a pretty good voice. The pussy screams are not particularly interesting.
Well I don't know, maybe -because you're into a lot more heavier music in general than me- you have tons of other bands that give you what I need slipknot to give me.. I'm not much of a brutal death metal guy and I guess Slipknot combine enough heaviness with groovy musical catchy stuff for me. They just really seem(ed) very honest in their anger and aggression and very able to get the message across
i used to have drops of jupiter, that was a good song too...........damn
People call me emo for liking Katatonia so much
dito. People have no fucking clue.
+2, I love how people call everything emo now that isn't made for commercial success and/or for fucking at a party. Ok not quite, but people calling things like daylight dies, katatonia, Rapture etc emo must have been fisted at birth.
