I went to one while underage and it was at a hotel so my father was forced to come. He left talking about how crazy the energy was and he said "I don't like heavy metal but that was an amazing show"
For a metal band, I find them the best. I've been to Slipknot concerts, and no other concert I've been to can ever compete with the amount of energy they have on the stage.
The drummer is Jay Weinberg. His dad is Max Weinberg. Max is the drummer for Bruce Springsteen and The E Street Band. So he had a great teacher. Check out Jay's video on UA-cam Jay Weinberg Set the Tone (Performance). You'll be air drum champ before you know it!!
Tj Hodgetts it’s everyone’s opinion on #1 band but I’d have to say Slipknot is better in consistency on good music than Metallica tho these are my 2 favorite bands
@@chaos5840 Agree Vermillion part 1 is one of their best songs. Just a heads up. the music video was shortened for TV. I would recommend a live version.
In 7th grade we had to choose a song and write a paper about the meaning of it or how we perceived it and play it for the class. I did mine on Vermillion part 1 and when I said I was doing a Slipknot song just about everyones face was like oh god not this shit but once I played it nobody had a problem with it, assuming most didn't know they had any softer songs... meaning is still kinda fucked
Slipknot is one of the highest rated heavy metal bands. They are definitely one of the highest paid bands and they get the most fans to their live shows.
Joey wasn't the drummer for Killpop, that was Jay Weinberg, who is amazing in his own right. I love him AND Joey, and consider them both the drummer of Slipknot.
Last thing, the drummer in the killpop video was a baby when this band started. A true story of someone living their dream to play in one of the worlds biggest bands.
A live track to check out. Spit it out live at download 2009 you'll love this one. I had the privilege of being there the energy is unbelievable and they way Corey is with the crowd is second to none ♥
Late comment but slipknot is held pretty high in the metal scene. They put on phenomenal performances. I've seen so many bands live in my life time and they are up there in the top 5 bands that have blown me away live.
It was not until I watched a video of Slipknot performing live that I liked them. I never gave them a second look. When I saw psychosocial live, I was awakened. I'm mean really? Nine guys on stage losing their minds and playing at that level.. OMFG
Same with me. I always past up on their music but when I started getting into youtube and saw some of the concerts I was automatically hooked and became a fan.
You got my sub bro,anyone who opens theirselves to this kind of heavy music,is deserving of said respect,i could listen to slipknot and tupac all day everyday and never feel more metal or more gangster,great vid man
Slipknot is diffidently top 10 of my metal bands. Listen to them ever since I was 13 years old, I'm 27 now. Diffidently had a huge impact in my life. Also R.I.P Paul Grey. ( Bassist for Slipknot )
I watched before I forget live. I just stood and stared the energy, their chemistry, it was all so mesmerizing that I had to snap me and my friends out of staring because we were all in a trance like state
In the video for "Before I forget" it was the first time they had been on camera with no masks (sort of..Corey Taylor and Jim Root were in Stone Sour, but Stone Sour was still relatively unknown at the time), so that's why they don't actually show their faces. I remember when the video came out people were freaking out about it. Not too long after a few photos got leaked and then they just kinda gave up the whole hide their faces thing..except Craig.
I'm with Dyzzy, I've seen them a few times and they are almost beyond words!!! I saw them with Disturbed and it was one of the best concerts I've ever been to....
One member named Sid (the one on the turn tables) is known for climbing up on the stage high points and jumping into the crowd. During one show he fell and broke not one but both heels. Sid crawled and limped back on stage and finished the show with the help of a stool to sit on. This is all on video, easily found on UA-cam. Sid finished the tour from a motorized chair.
Slipknot will always be my favorite in the rock genre. I listen to mostly hip hop nowadays but I was a metal head all thru school and Slipknot helped me thru.
Slipknot does have some quite talented members and I enjoy their music. That being said most metalheads don't hold them in very high esteem due to their simplicity and mainstream sound on some albums.
@@sebastianmortimer6389 Yeah i see that, i got respect for them doing their thing musically tho, I personally don'tcare for much of their later albums myself either. Early Slipknot=Best, However one of the big reasons I will always consider them top teir is the exposure they've brought to metal. Alot of there stuff can be seen as a gateway to the world and for that I cant hate. Plus on a personal level they are really good people as well which helps reflect well on the metal community as a whole. So I nod my head in respect always
Slipknots in the pantheon of metal. They’re not even my favorite or anything, but they’ve earned it with their contributions to music and years of success writing music their own way.
the download 2009 show full concert is the greatest thing to ever watch ...plus corey tayler is also the lead singer of stone sour ...believe it or not
Back in the '90s, when they were still playing clubs, I had tickets to see them in Pensacola, Florida. The show was cancelled that afternoon because three of the guys were hospitalized from exhaustion and dehydration (presumably because of the masks and jumpsuits). It even made the local news. They've come back many times since then. Great post. Cheers.
If I remember correctly, the reason for not seeing their faces/masks on Before I Forget is that it's the song they revealed their new masks for that album
I'm not a big Slipknot fan.. However, they are top tier and have been for 20 years! They have always had their own sound, I can recognize a Slipknot song easily. I think they are the best at what they do...
Elite is the word bro. There’s a reason they are in my Top 3 Favorite bands. So much influence on me throughout my life since 1999. Seen them 6 times live going all the way back to 2000. I’m proud to call myself a maggot. I’m telling you, go to a show, it will change your life. I really enjoy seeing you head-banging and showing much respect. They deserve it. Read up on them sometime. Their story is very unique and tragic. Keep the Slipknot coming!
Audio on Wait And Bleed wasn't live. It was heavily edited. There was also other audio version of the same video that came up before it, but for some reason they took it down years ago. They did the same with animated version. Loved the reactions even tho I'm not into Slipknot anymore \m/
I can't speak for the drummer of Slipknot but as a drummer myself I can say that most "fills" are off the top of our head. I very rarely do the same fill twice unless it sounds PERFECT for the song I'm doing. Drummers have alot of free reign to make up shit during musical transitions to fill the space. It's like a really short version of a guitar solo after every couple measures haha
Dear Matthew I hope you will read this comment from a simple guy who living in a far far Ukraine (yeah, Jinjer band from here). Nearly 30 minutes ago he just open this video to watch your reaction on those few songs from Slipknot that he likes. Everything was going as good as always and after second song just starts to think about closing video but then...this guy diced to stay with U and found "KILLPOP" - a priceless dark pearl in the world ocean full of different songs. And now he want to scream "THANK YOU!" with a power of all people's lungs on our planet!🌍 ... I hope you'll hear these words because after this long journey they must finally reach a main target when you Matt say them to Slipknot on their concert behind the curtains just before they must go on the stage to burn every ass which came to see some crazy shit! By the way of course this guy also want to thank your reaction & hopes that all words he wrote down tonight will be making a little parade of lightenings in your memory every time you will be listening to adorable masterpiece calling "KILLPOP" 👊😎
Slipknot out here showing what Iowans can do! Iowa birthed the computer and Slipknot but all we got is a ridiculous amount of corn/beans..... literally everywhere.
For the first two albums, their identity outside of the masks and the numbers was 100% secret. As Vol 3 came around people started putting things together, this was the first music video where they didn't have their masks on and never showed their faces. it was a nice tease. Then obviously we figured it out and they were like "eh fuck it, they solved it"
Everybody saying you should watch Spit It Out live at Download 2009 but I think you should watch Spit It Out live in Mexico. It was their first time in Mexico, the crowd gave all they got.
I'm old old school metal head and I say Slipknot is a top tier band. They can play their shit live and have their own sound and style.
record label: "time for you guys to do a video without masks"
Slipknot: "K"
I’ve been to 5 Slipknot concerts and I have never been to any other concert that’s energy is anywhere close to what they have
Big facts.
I went to one while underage and it was at a hotel so my father was forced to come. He left talking about how crazy the energy was and he said "I don't like heavy metal but that was an amazing show"
Yeah, obviously you never saw rage against the machine live
Realistic thought you are correct
Damn straight ... slipknot concerts are 2nd to none!!
Slipknot is one of the legendary metal bands still around today.
They are definitely in the conversation at the top.
If you do Slipknot live you HAVE to check out Spit It Out live at download 2009. Crowd goes crazy!
I'm my opinion, the album version is better
Favorite song from them.
Bro watch spit it out live at download 2009 you want to se a great live show
Studio is better it's not as good watching them on a screen
This verson of *Wait and Bleed* its the "clean" one, you should listen to the original version with the screams.
Yeah I have the original release that has purity on it and it’s much heavier cause it doesn’t have the clean vocals
Is it on the deluxe version of the album? The demo version?
David Martinez it’s on the normal album, the demo and remix is on the 10 year anniversary edition , the one he’s reacting to is the radio version
Well he was reacting to the MV, which only has the clean version.
The download 2009 live show is what you need to see man, from the opening to the end its just epic!
🤟🏻🥶 🏴
For a metal band, I find them the best. I've been to Slipknot concerts, and no other concert I've been to can ever compete with the amount of energy they have on the stage.
Saw Slipknot for the 9th time last month and took my non metal head friend and he said they were crazy good and wants to go see them again!
Slipknot as good as it gets simple as that
The drummer is Jay Weinberg. His dad is Max Weinberg. Max is the drummer for Bruce Springsteen and The E Street Band. So he had a great teacher. Check out Jay's video on UA-cam Jay Weinberg Set the Tone (Performance). You'll be air drum champ before you know it!!
Negative. This is Joey Jordison
@@FtwNil Jay is in Killpop though.
Top 5 for sure, most metal fans agree.
Who would be number one?
@@thanosdione7697 prob metalica id say 🤔
Well, that varies accordingly to everyone. Me personally, i would put Iron Maiden at #1, been a fan since i was 5ish.
Tj Hodgetts it’s everyone’s opinion on #1 band but I’d have to say Slipknot is better in consistency on good music than Metallica tho these are my 2 favorite bands
@Tj Hodgetts: Metallica sucks live
Trivium- beyond oblivion, the drumming. Is insane
My favourite from The Sin and the Sentence, The Wretchedness Inside is a definite 2nd
Definetly
meshuggah - bleed
Someone said that meshuggah is a quantum physics of metal.
the drumming is insane on all trivium tracks. Departure from Ascendancy is prob my fav
I've seen slipknot 15 times and I love them there a life style if it wasn't for them I wouldn't be here.
Wait and bleed mosh pit wwas in Sydney Australia I loved that gig... The best mosh pit ive been in, in 30 years
You need to check out Vermillion part one and two.
Hell yeah. Vermillion part 1 is one of my favorite songs period
@@chaos5840 Agree Vermillion part 1 is one of their best songs. Just a heads up. the music video was shortened for TV. I would recommend a live version.
In 7th grade we had to choose a song and write a paper about the meaning of it or how we perceived it and play it for the class.

I agree!
Your appreciation for Slipknot has earned you my subscription. Thank you for enjoying them with all of us
Slipknot is one of the highest rated heavy metal bands. They are definitely one of the highest paid bands and they get the most fans to their live shows.
The drummer is Joey Jordison. One of the best metal drummers ever.
Joey wasn't the drummer for Killpop, that was Jay Weinberg, who is amazing in his own right. I love him AND Joey, and consider them both the drummer of Slipknot.
That's Jay Weinberg
That’s Jay Weinberg not Joey
@@mohammad_ahnaf_afique It is Joey for "Before I forget" and "Wait and Bleed".
Last thing, the drummer in the killpop video was a baby when this band started. A true story of someone living their dream to play in one of the worlds biggest bands.
BRO!!!! I've been waiting for some1 to react to killpop.... BIG THANK YOU!!!!!

A live track to check out.
Spit it out live at download 2009 you'll love this one. I had the privilege of being there the energy is unbelievable and they way Corey is with the crowd is second to none ♥
Loving how u showing respect to an amazing band. And almost done with the video and just saw that monopoly in the background lol
by far the best live show I have ever seen. Seen them 4 times and each time they got better.
Been to 4 going to 5 in September hopefully they will have a few songs off wanyk!
Slipknot's is the Wu-Tang Clan of heavy metal, they been the game over 20 years straight Legends🐐🐐🐐🐐
Late comment but slipknot is held pretty high in the metal scene. They put on phenomenal performances. I've seen so many bands live in my life time and they are up there in the top 5 bands that have blown me away live.
One of the best to ever do it! SLIPKNOT!!
I have Cory Taylor tattooed on my arm when he had his mask back in the day
I gotta say I appreciate you being open to all types of music. Respect man!!!
I love your reactions my dude. Keep up the positive energy and awesome videos.
It was not until I watched a video of Slipknot performing live that I liked them. I never gave them a second look.
When I saw psychosocial live, I was awakened. I'm mean really? Nine guys on stage losing their minds and playing at that level.. OMFG
Same with me. I always past up on their music but when I started getting into youtube and saw some of the concerts I was automatically hooked and became a fan.
I like them live but when I seen psychosocial live they played it to fast
They are a great live band!!
Same here hated them til I saw them way back in early 2000s and they woke my ass up. Marching band from hell lol it's was so awesome
Great reaction! Slipknot is amazing and always never disappoints. I’m glad you appreciate their music.
They’re considered an elite metal band. Probably one of the best to have ever done it.
Slipknot is well respected, really talented guys.. But of course, it's hard metal so slipknot is not for everyone.
"Hard Metal" accurate lol
Not a Metallica fan but metal from 90's-2000's Slipknot is #1 in my book. Love the channel
Slipknot are highly talented but as far as metal goes... by far not the heaviest.. masters of their genre
Best of the bands that came out of the nu metal explosion!
There's a shitload of ways to define heavy. That being, they're near the top in terms of talent, ie musicianship and vocals.
There's something to be said about the lineage of Slipknot the myth The Masks, the timeing the whole journey was something to be revered.
My favorite band of allllll time ❤
You got my sub bro,anyone who opens theirselves to this kind of heavy music,is deserving of said respect,i could listen to slipknot and tupac all day everyday and never feel more metal or more gangster,great vid man
Just came across your channel love what your doing KEEP IT UP!!
Damn brother... I love what you're doing! Keep up the great work.;D
Slipknot's is the Wu-Tang Clan of heavy metal that's how high they are or maybe higher
Plus, like the Wu, there's a shitload of them. More bang for your buck.
Love these reactions and the fact that I get 3 from you everytime!!!! Love it and keep it up!
Brilliant, talented and very underrated imh bro, im with you on seeing them live, would need a few months doing cardio to prepare for the concert 😂
Slipknot is diffidently top 10 of my metal bands. Listen to them ever since I was 13 years old, I'm 27 now. Diffidently had a huge impact in my life. Also R.I.P Paul Grey. ( Bassist for Slipknot )

Slipknot and Disturbed are noupt Doupt the 2 biggest names in metal today and possibly repeat POSSIBLY of all time
What's up bro your vids are on point good selection of music
13:00 every time I listen to killpop that drum part always makes me live the song even more

The same Sid that lost a fight with a door during filming for Psychosocial
I've seen them live during every tour so far. When they come to South jersey this time around I'll be there again!
The drummer in Wait and Bleed and Before I Forget was their old drummer Joey Jordinson. Killpop was their new drummer Jay Weinberg
Slipknot will always be my favorite in the rock genre. I listen to mostly hip hop nowadays but I was a metal head all thru school and Slipknot helped me thru.
I’ll be seeing them in August in Noblesville Indiana!! It’s gonna be crazy
Have been on their show last night in Prague .. What a hell .. Most amazing show ever happend in here
gotta do Slipknot - spit it out live
yes
You're not wrong. Slipknot is top notch, brother. May God please bless you and your efforts.
They are Top teir! Mann i came up blasting slipknot, so stoked you've done reaction videos to some of their tracks

I like your reaction man, good vídeo,like and new sub, Greetings From Chile.
they are simply pure metal bands, they are not screamo but on the boundaries of it.
What's funny is you said "I don't care if you got a headache or not, rock out with us", and I actually did have one when I clicked on this video.
Much respect for just listening to slipknot
7th slipknot concert for me is in 2 months, never miss a show in my state
Going to see em in August. Saw em back in the day pledge of alliance tour. Was crazy.
Slipknot also has a tour this summer! Check out if they're coming near you, it'll be worth going bro!
the download 2009 show full concert is the greatest thing to ever watch ...plus corey tayler is also the lead singer of stone sour ...believe it or not
Yo imma drummer too and we reacted the same when they had that sick drum simisolo haha love your reactions man
Back in the '90s, when they were still playing clubs, I had tickets to see them in Pensacola, Florida. The show was cancelled that afternoon because three of the guys were hospitalized from exhaustion and dehydration (presumably because of the masks and jumpsuits). It even made the local news. They've come back many times since then. Great post. Cheers.
Alright bro...you got another sub my dude...the fact you like slipknot means you have a great taste in music..💪🤜🤛
The crowd on one of the concerts rip off a door and different people surf on it over the crowd, thats how crazy some concerts go :D
These songs make me load my minecraft TNT cannons twice faster
But first you have to fight my secomd

Love Killpop one of my favs from them. Can you check out Celldweller? Eon, The Best It's Gonna Get, Jericho good video of three mix
so much this

When he said you have to be in shape to go to a slipknot concert (me thinking about how big clown was at the time)
For the first two albums, their identity outside of the masks and the numbers was 100% secret.

I remember going to see them when they first came out, now im taking my son to his first Slipknot show in summer. Cant fuckin wait.
