Joey is somewhat overrated. Slipknot is more overrated. I'll admit that they are one of the best nu-metal bands, but they are really repititive for one, and they write boring riffs. Repetitive and boring riffs are fine if the music goes anywhere, evokes strong emotions, or are well crafted, but abviously slipknot doesn't. There is nothing redeeming about slipknot except for the drummers technicality. As for lyrics, let's see, immortal vs. slipknot:
In the deadwhite moonlight
far above we reign mercilessly
Kings of the ravenrealm
Stronger than ice
Stronger than stone
Kill you - fuck you - i will never be you
Kill you - fuck you - i will never be you
I can't fuckin' take it anymore
A snap of the synapse
And now it's fuckin' war
Kill you - fuck you - i will never be you
