I told my boyfriend to listen to this under the premise of it being a new Slipknot song, he was 100% convinced it was them. You guys absolutely killed it.
I slapped the headphones on my husband and said "tell me who this band is..." He listened to like 30 seconds and said "Slipknot". Nik and Matt YOU KILLED IT!!! 🔥🤘🔥🤘
As a huge Slipknot fan, I can confirm, this is what 99% of Slipknot songs sound like. Side note, adding Papaya's bark made it 10x better than it already was.
Nik deserves more respect and recognition. Dude can cook up tracks that sound exactly like the bands hes going for....its actually insane how easily and fast he does them. And streams it all too. Its really hard to just cook up tracks like this and have the end product be something as accurate as these have been from him. Dude literally just made a slipknot song that slipknot fans actually like and wish the real band would go back to sounding like...slipknot fans are the most diehard fans of all. Nik your crazy good at this and wish i was half as good as you are.
Nik always says that every other metal youtuber is better than him at guitar but Idk man, I think he's one of the best, not to mention his weirdly insane songwriting ability.
Nik is quietly killing the metal game this year. Literally every one of these has been BANGERZ and they’re all on my favorite metal tracks playlist for this year. LFG keep it up Nik!
holy sht, this just turned into a legit banger of a song! the dude used sound effects like smashing cans and sht, and even threw in a screaming goat, lmao. 'Mad' is gonna be on repeat for days. shoutout to the dope vocalist for pulling this off. slipknot would be proud 🤘
Why is it would slipknot can hear this at anytime and I think they might legit acknowledge it or at least one of the nine will it’s gonna be crazy or I hope they do
Corey’s lost brother on the vocals! This is amazing. They could just take this song and put it in their next album! Very impressive! Regards from Brazil
HOLY FUCK, Nik you are going to bankrupt the Metal scene if you keep putting out random bangers. This man is becoming something different fucking props bro.
Matt killed those vocals. Saw Slapknutz a few weeks ago at our local bar, and they brought the house down along with all the other bands that night. Highly recommend.
@@mattsolegod yeah man, you guys killed it at Lovedrafts that night. We need you guys back along with Old School Hollywood. Slightly bigger venue like HMAC and you guys would kill it. So glad Nik reached out to you for this collab. This and his collab with the From Ashes to New singer Danny Case are my favorites so far. FATN is a "local" band for us.
This is one of the best things in existence.If I didn’t know you made this,I would 100% believe this is a Slipknot song.Everything is on point,especially the impression of Corey Taylor
There’s tons of talented musicians that are working on great stuff. Too bad the industry acts as a gatekeeper by pushing out pies that they already have their finger in. Industry is about everyone else getting paid for another musicians hard work. This is why mumble rap & kanye/beyonces exist, for label executives to get paid a great deal more than the ignorant artists they take advantage of
Ok, first of all, that chorus actually goes mad hard and does sound mad Slipknot-ish. Second, the vocals r mad crazy, dude FUKIN KILLED IT🫡! Lastly, the fact that the drums only had a single pedal visually moving mad me crack up way more than I feel like it should’ve 🤣! All in all, fire project you’ve guys put together 🤘💯‼️
this sounds absolutely amazing. and you really captured corey with that. it sounds like Blister Exists, Unsainted, Eyeless, IOWA vocals and wait and bleed all in one
Perfect emulation of Slipknot, this wouldn't be out of place on Iowa or All Hope Is Gone. Amazing job by Matt Solegod to really bring a captivating vocal performance with a beautiful clean vocal to match the darkness of the growls. Love the song, love the video, adding it to my 2023 playlist for sure.
That's awesome that you got the vocalist from Slapknutz on here. I just saw them live at a Knotfest tribute in PA recently, and they put on a great show. It's hard to imagine a better Slipknot tribute band than them.
This dude can just decide what band he wants to sound like on the spot. That's crazy. There's other like this, but unlike them he's also got the Charisma for being an interesting YT personality as well The song itself sounds like a melding of IOWA and Vol. 3. Sounds just like a Slipknot song. They should totally buy this song from you guys and record it themselves. That would be cool...
Wait till people are watching videos and it's just pro tools/music editing software on a screen. While a AI bot/generator makes music. Like the people that watch a scripts video or streams while it runs though as many business databases as it can. Buying up all the gpus and playstation type things .
This is in now a canon slipknot song in my opinion. It's like 99% perfect. The only thing I think they would've done differently is use cleans to start the part at 7:50 instead of a mixture of both screams & cleans.
If someone played this for me without me knowing and said this was the new Slipknot, I would believe them. Holy shit. I thought your Deftones song nailed it. This is literally a Slipknot song that they just decided to leave off of an album.
Holy shit. ❤ I have nothing intelligent to say. That went so hard and was absolutely beautiful and perfect in every way. You're great at guitar, but gods damn the vocals!!! Damn. So much more, please.
This is honestly better than some of their more recent stuff. Great job! Was hoping there'd be a part where he yelled "Getting madder and MADDER AND MADDER" like in the short video but the song was sick regardless!
If someone told me this was a new unreleased slipknot song that got leaked, not 1, NOT 1 part of me would of doubted. Seriously hats off for this one man
WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT this is insanely AWESOME, if I didn’t watch you put it together, I would hands down say this was a new Slipknot song, very impressive 🤘😝🤘
This sounds just like taked out from all hope is gone! Really nice!!! And the dog has to be in every slipknot song from now on!!! I hope they read this and reconsider to add that
I don't wanna say, but you two managed to make a slipknot song that is more slipknot than slipknot's latest album, the end so far. This is absolutely insane

If nobody told me this wasn't slipknot, I'd never know 😂
thank you!
The fact that I feel like I've already heard this song on a slipknot album just cements this as massive success in my opinion.
If I were Slipknot, I would play this song live in concert, just for fun
It could be better if Y'all just invite nik and matt to your concert🔥🔥🔥
imagine Slipknot brining a GOAT on a stage :D
Yes.
The Slipknot song they didnt make. Sounds epic lol
THIS gotta happen.
Goddamn, props to the drummer for doing such a killer job

The bark sounded like a little scratching sound to me 😂
take it to 100% if you add a keg and a bat
I'm now convinced Slipknot should do an official cover of this and release it as a single. (Giving Nik credit of course)
I'm now convinced we need a petition!
YEESSSSSSSSSSSS I WOULD SIGN
Considering the actual situation, Nik can be the next guitarist
They would talk crap on him for using the tools he used, at least Corey would
Why is this so genuinely amazing? This feels like it could be not only the lead single for a Slipknot album, but one I would play over and over again.
Nik deserves more respect and recognition. Dude can cook up tracks that sound exactly like the bands hes going for....its actually insane how easily and fast he does them. And streams it all too.

@@Asphyr This was one of the comments of all time.
It is weird that death metal puts me to sleep sometimes? It can either make me pumped, or help me sleep. Lmao. 😂
Wow this sounds accurate. And I’ve heard great things about the vocalist of Slapknutz and I’d definitely agree he’s incredible.
Appreciate it!
This is one of the best things in existence.If I didn’t know you made this,I would 100% believe this is a Slipknot song.Everything is on point,especially the impression of Corey Taylor

Makes me think of a deer skull for some reason
Slipknot hire this man as your ghostwriter. Nik you have delivered Iowa vibes that every fan has wanted for years. Cheers m8

I never got into Slipknot but between this and Stevie T, both were great. If you guys both did a fun metal thing together, it would be well, amazing

Loving this new format of content from Nick, this is just pure gold, thanks for making a song from my fav band better than their last album
This could’ve been straight off one of their albums, it sounds completely legit. It’s even a perfectly good, if not great, song. I love it.
Gotta say, those pinch harmonics were dead nuts, you can’t get anymore Psychosocial-esque than that, bravo friend!
This brought me back to Iowa days. Very nostalgic! I love this work!!!
Im really impressed with Nik's creativity, he's just dropping banger after banger!!
This song is so good I'm legit adding it to my "Best of Slipknot" Spotify playlist.
This is in now a canon slipknot song in my opinion. It's like 99% perfect. The only thing I think they would've done differently is use cleans to start the part at 7:50 instead of a mixture of both screams & cleans.
I rather have pure cleans on the chorus I don't like the mix of scream and clean 💀😞
That was the only part where you could hear something different
This is sick. One of the better slipknot tracks I heard for a while lol

Holy crap, the song is awesome!!!!... And the vocals man, even Corey´s maniacal laugh is in there, that is insane!

Nik for sure
Stevie t's is more new slipknot
@@madazza Not necessarily a bad thing but yeah I'm team Nik here (I do love Stevie's version)
Both better than slipknot's latest album imo
@@dynamicdingus not true, last album is very good.
Fantastic man, you and the vocalist created a great metal music!!
This is so SICK!!! Awesome job dude!
loving the new/old Nik doing more music playing and production. you also seem happier doing it.
This is so unbelievably close to the Slipknot sound, it's immense. Loving this format you've got going, keep it up dude!
If someone played this for me without me knowing and said this was the new Slipknot, I would believe them. Holy shit. I thought your Deftones song nailed it. This is literally a Slipknot song that they just decided to leave off of an album.
I''m surprised Nik hasn't done a Dimmu Borgir cover yet. The Gateways breakdown seems up his alley, i've yet to hear a more well-made breakdown since.
Gives me those early slipknot vibes that I totally miss. Great job!
This f’ing slaps!!! Please Nik, more of these full songs. The metalcore one, rammstein one, and now this one are all phenomenal
You just kicked Stevie T's Slipknot song's butt into stratosphere! Those old school vibes are so AWESOME!!!
This stuff you've been doing absolutely slams balls man, Jesus 😂😂
Pun intended?
That sounds more painful than impressive.
Has anyone from slipknot commented on the track at all? I love this track and the process you went through. Keep doing this type of content 🤘🏻🤘🏻👹
Holy shit. ❤ I have nothing intelligent to say. That went so hard and was absolutely beautiful and perfect in every way. You're great at guitar, but gods damn the vocals!!! Damn. So much more, please.
I’m the vocalist in this. Haha thank you!
You killed it dude! This is so accurate it's hard to believe it isn't a Slipknot song! Keep up the amazing work!
This is honestly better than some of their more recent stuff. Great job! Was hoping there'd be a part where he yelled "Getting madder and MADDER AND MADDER" like in the short video but the song was sick regardless!
Been listening to this all day no joke, the chorus is so on point, gives big Sulfur vibes
What an absolute monster... Goat, based, the beast himself... Wow. This SLAPS HARD🔥🔥🔥🔥
7:30 for me, this is the most satisfying part, the transition from half time to straight up four on the floor
Instant add to the playlist I’m so happy you did a full version!!!
Wow man, this really is a top quality slipknot song, agree the vocalist does an amazing job in replicating Corey's voice, almost an exact match 😮

I hate that I agree with this.

That last album was a big Ooof
I'm making this comment before hearing Nik's song, but no good songs from Slipknot in decade? U must not have been listening to Slipknot or like them.
goosebumps man... sound like old school slipknot... congrats.. the song that never gets on the album
You already a monster Nik, would love to hear a solo in any of your new songs.
WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT this is insanely AWESOME, if I didn’t watch you put it together, I would hands down say this was a new Slipknot song, very impressive 🤘😝🤘
the vibes at 7:11 are giving the feel from Gematria (The Killing Name), Joey Jordison is proud of you from heaven
Been listening to them since just before Iowa came out. This is like the first 3 albums put through a dream filter, so uncanny.
I’m really digging this new style of content! Keep up the awesome work cuz these random songs you create are 🔥

This sounds just like taked out from all hope is gone! Really nice!!! And the dog has to be in every slipknot song from now on!!! I hope they read this and reconsider to add that
f***ing tight!! love the tune lol it totally shreds. Will need El Estepario Siberiano on the kit though hahaha
I am loving this new era of Nik 🙌🏼🙌🏼
Holy shit. If this came out as an unreleased iowa track i would literally believe it! Wow! Epic! ❤
I don't wanna say, but you two managed to make a slipknot song that is more slipknot than slipknot's latest album, the end so far. This is absolutely insane
The end so far is as Slipknot as any other album, they just made the songs differently, but you can still hear classic Slipknot there
This is insane. You are mad talented bro!
Awesome song. The vocals are insane!
I love watching the process of the creation and the humor you put into it. Entertaining and educational. 👍🏻
You're creating some absolute bangers with this series of videos.

You perfectly embraced a could have been released/unreleased slipknot song. Awesome song man!!!!
Almost perfect, just crank up that percussion bang. Insane composition!!
