What does everyone think of the new album from the Iowa masked men?

Im personally pretty damn impressed!! Killer riffs and pounding solos, and just darn heavy sh*t. Now I know people think they are silly with their masks and think they belong in the same category as Limp Bizkit (because of freaking 90s nu-metal), but if you havent heard the new album Id will say... give it a chance. The album is just straight hard pounding metal. The drums are amazing and guitar work is definitely the bands best!!

Anyone agree?
 
Stubborn people.
I will give it a try, although I recently listened to their live album (I had to) and found it to be pretty boring. But that was also my impression with the very first Opeth I listened to, so I'm never quick at judging stuff.

Also I (again I had to) saw them as support for Metallica in 2004 and the sound was horrible. Their masks didn't help either. :lol:
 
I think a couple of Slipknot songs are alright... I guess I could try the new one to see if it sucks a lot or if it's somewhere close to alright. (I doubt it)
