Ironically Slipknots softest song is their absolute heaviest..
I think Circle or Vermillion pt2 is "musically" their softest. But yeah for a soft song this is absolutely their heaviest imo.
Well for me it is "Till we die" their tribute to guitarist Paul Gray.
@@derekroberts7217 paul was a bassist, not a guitarist
@@darren9557 Bass Guitarist...I know I just could not think of it in the moment.
@Pixel Penguin "Get This" is pretty heavy too tbh
The amount of times I have to explain that metal isn't satanic to my friends is ridiculous
I feel you man
Lololol
Metal is not satanic if anything rap is most not all is about murder rape robbing so you tell me witch one is more evil
well it honestly kinda is, most bands are satanic, most of them do horrible things on stage and back stage, most do hate God and most do sing about satanism. Even when the christian bands first came out everyone was against them. Until i saw the actual christian bands, is then i realized it's not just about that. Nowadays the christian bands are honestly more metal.
HAHAH "i feel you man" "metalhead 666" love you
As an atheist, I respect how you guys present yourselves. Thank you for being a good representation of what religion can be. We'll never agree on it, but I respect the hell out of you two.
RESPECT "THE HELL" bro? Hahahahaha
Respect the heck
TheSnarkyBrit
He protecc
He attacc
But most importantly… he respecc the hecc
I was gonna comment something similar
@@futurefilipe "the hell OUT of it" though XD
Fun fact: the breaking glass scene was pure accident and rage. Corey legit had cut his hand.
I imagine clown directing this and being like, "No wait keep acting"
I feel like cory would have licked that wound if this were iowa era shit.
@@droptherapy2085 Basically what happened tbh. It wasn't acting. The scene where he is on the ground against the cabinet is actually him not being able to keep himself together because the song just hits that hard
@@sinderi218 fuck man... had no idea, super cool facts
Also fun fact, the blonde female is also played by corey
This is how the world is supposed to be. Both sides listening and attempting to understand.
So you think that slipknot are Satan? 😂
James Jones agreed
@@eugenioferrari48 that's not what he meant.
@@ChronicBreakdown how do you know? 🤔
Eugenio Ferrari because he didn't say anything related to Satanism
I'm a Christian and I love metal, people don't understand the genre
We just want to be accepted
Muslim and love metal too🙋
@Din Joekhannaz me to buddy 😆
I'm a Christian too so this paster has just won my respect
a few good christian metal bands out there!!
"It took the death of hope to let you go" will always be the deepest lyrics ive ever heard
Carnage DNA same...
Same! I already had "hope" in Hungarian tattooed on the back of my neck... I added "death of" in Hungarian above it a few years later when I was going through a very difficult time and this song helped me a lot... I learned that I needed "the death of hope" to let someone go....
This song will forever be with me... I learned that "hope" can deff hold us back and allow us to continue to make the same stupid decisions over and over again...
I much prefer a song from a band called Psychostick some passages read as follows:
when its warm it taste's real crappy
but cold beer will make me happy
when I throw up on the floor
I can go and drink some more
they say beer will make me dumb
it are go good with pizza
now that we have drunk some beer
let's go drive a car
Beer is good
Beer is good
Beer is good
Carnage DNA bury all your secrets in my skin. 😍 how beautiful. ☺️
I had to let hope die inside of me.... so I could let her go
When your Christian and listen to heavy metal, you spend more time explaining that it isnt satanic rather than actually listening to it
Every genre is made to worship thats all 🤟🤟
I listen to death metal so apparently I’m a extremely satanist so I feel u
I appreciate that’s he open enough to listen to it.
I’d go to church if this guy was preaching.
i just dont bother. people seem to refuse to understand things
Try being a Christian and one of your favorite bands is Ghost lol.
I'm not a religious man, but I like the open minded angle of this video.
A closed mind means a closed heart
I concur. I've been agnostic since about age 17 when I had more questions about religions than answers. But, I'm definitely down to see how someone so religiously influenced, views the songs and genre I've been addicted too for over 20 years now
Cant wait for the "Slipknot reacts to Pastor reacts to Slipknot" vid!
"What does Corey Taylor thinks about this" ~Loudwire
Pastor reacts to slipknot reacts to pastor reacts to slipknot
wrong channel.
Steve Terryberry would be who you’re looking for
No, Steve Turdberry can go fuck himself. It's Corey Taylor's opinion that is important.
It's so rare to have a song that hits EVERYBODY so hard.
Music has always been a way to communicate emotion for thousands of years xx
"It took the death of hope to let you go" sends shivers up n down my spine every damn time i hear that phrase
That line is so deep...
I'm not even religious, but this pastor gained my respects. Suscribed. 💖
Same here.
Same here
Same here? Well, then, all three of you should unsuscribe and, then, subscribe. What is "Suscribed"? Is that some new thing you can do on UA-cam?
@@rhymeswithteeth 😑

As Marilyn Manson once said, art is a question mark but never an answer, meaning, everyone's interpretation is valid. Cool channel
That’s a great quote.
They should have watched Corey's live performance after Paul Gray's death.
That was my first thought. The live version is just so heartrending.
100% true
Fun fact:
This song has since been dedicated to his VERY close friend and Slipknot bandmate Paul Gray whose life was lost to drugs...
AAAND...
It's been said, both by Corey and others, that the scene where he breaks the glass was an accident and the blood on his hand was from a cut suffered by the breaking wine glass... it's also been speculated that he was reflecting on Paul's death while filming that scene.
though it’s been speculated because the song’s been dedicated to him, the music video was filmed and released a year prior to Paul’s death so Corey was probably just reflecting on the original inspiration of the song. Still, after what happened to Paul I think the song has a gained an entire new meaning for both the band and the fans
When I think about you, I cut myself.....
@@hrnancastillo it was paul's favorite song on the album
Please correct me if I’m wrong, I think Paul was still around when Snuff was filmed. The video was filmed October of 2009 and released in December of the same year. Paul passed away May 10th 2010. Now that Paul is gone, it was said in an interview that the song has taken on a whole new meaning for Corey and the band. Also I’m pretty sure this song was originally written about a woman who Corey was engaged to at the time , prior to the video being made.
After writing this comment I realized Hernan Castillo beat me to it.
He was... but since "it" happened, Corey has dedicated this song to Paul.
Dudes got a good attitude. I like it. I bet he is a really good pastor.
I'd like to see him react to the devil in I...
@@johnprusa4148 yeah man good tune

As a non-believer, congrats on figuring out how to make me willingly listen to preaching.

This so much.
Matt 2.0 🤣 This is my favorite comment yet! Thanks for posting.

Nothing wrong with listening to an opinion you dont necessarily agree with. Happened to me too. Devout Atheist. Enjoy watching these two do this.
Im a Christian and my favorite band is Slipknot. Corey saved my life many times because God put him in the position to be able to.
Snuff is one of the greatest songs ever. It captures so much pain. I personally love this song. I connect with this song, as well as most people would. Its 100% okay to feel these feelings and to express them. As men, we deal with a lot of expectations. Men, have this standard hanging above them to be strong and not to break. To not cry, to not talk about their problems. I've had some pretty heavy break ups and lost love I've felt the pain this song so perfectly encapsulates. The feeling of love is so strong. Unfortunately it doesn't always work out sometimes. It can leave you empty inside and confidence turns to insecurity. It can be one of the hardest things to go through in life. BUT, you gotta find a way to take that hurt and that pain and use it for personal gain. Self development. Focus on work, Focus on a hustle or a hobby. Try some new things like playing guitar, disk golf, gardening, SOMETHING new. Something that adds to your value. You cant let someone who broke your heart make you hate yourself to the point your emotionally crippled. If you do that, they win. You have to let go, which is hard. and its 100x harder to ever find a healthy relationship. While your heart is still bleeding from wounds its gone thru. This is why alot of people have trust issues and why there are alot of toxic relationships these days. Toxicity creates more toxicity. the only possible way to heal is to love yourself. grow yourself into somthing your proud of. And dont worry. your worth somthing and someday someone will see that :) hope this heap of words helped somebody going thru it.
I never recovered from a loss I experienced over a decade ago. It coincided with some health issues that I was dealing with. I never climbed out of the abyss that consumes me to this day.
@@charleslaine keep trying my man, good times will come, I’m sure of it
Its great to see a pastor giving this music a chance, as most would say its the devils music! Respects to you friend. You have earned alike and subscription from me
No, "most" WOULDN'T say that. I know maybe ONE pastor who takes moral exception to this still of music.
@@smashleyscott8272 not just pastors but a lot of people don’t understand
When he busted the glass, that is a real cut he got from breaking the glass. In that scene he really was upset and the tears were real.
Woah ouch!
Nobody ever mentions the cameo by the great Malcolm Macdowell as the doorman
Metal isn’t satanic as long as you don’t take it to heart ... I am a Christian and I truly love this genre of music and your reaction was very great !💖
So it is Satanic but you don't have to fear it.
satanic metal is generally black metal but some death metal like Deicide are too...Slipknot never was satanic despite thinking otherwise.
I would say Ghost is more of a satanic metal band
@@England91 Ghost is a rock band actually.
rami Katoorani we dont want to get into what genre they are, they probably dont even know themselves. They’re so unique.
You can't see California without Marlon Brando's eyes
RevRay Green that’s pretty (sic)
Eyelesssss
Wow talk about “before I forget” my eye 👁
Well, Corey lost his eyes since he pushed his fingers into them xD
Kowaishi well it was the only thing that stopped the aches
I came here with assumptions and I was pleasantly surprised. Thank you for having an open mind. More people should be like you.
"you call it demonic because you hear the screaming, I call it music because I hear the meaning'. My favourite quote
+Edgy Teen 2K17 I’m going to borrow that. 🙏🏻
this song breaks my heart every time i hear it. this past year was almost worse than bad. i feel his pain and sorrow in this song. the lyrics hit home so hard =(
Damn I feel that so much. I was so close to my friend and we started dating. For her everything started going downhill but for me it was the best time of my life. Then she told me she still had feelings for her ex and broke up with me and now we barely ever talk. It still kills me every night.
Corey dressed up as her, was to signify that he lost himself in her.
Yea, seems like they missed that whole aspect of the video. As if he was becoming her or becoming someone else.
I always assumed he killed her in the apartment, and left dressed as her. Guess I was way off...
@@JackhammerRAGE yea I was way off in what him dressing up as her meant as well haha
That’s definitely deeper than I thought. I’m enjoying reading all the different perspectives and interpretations in these comments. Thanks for your positive contribution to the conversation.
@@devynkoch1417 I'm still not convinced I'm wrong. The song is called SNUFF, which implies "extinguishing", which in turn would imply he kills her.
At 6:22 Corey actually broke down in tears for real, they didn't tell him the camera was still rolling making the scene even more powerful.
It would be interesting to get your reaction/opinion about a Slipknot song called "The burden" and to give you a taste of it the first line is:
"There's God.."
And the last verse is:
"For God's sake we suffer this pain is now our lives
For God's sake we suffered ENOUGH!"
Keep up the good work guys. :D
Yagami Raïto I’m not even a huge fan of the song, or of .5 at all (besides the devil and I, aov, Killpop, and the negative one) but I would love to see these guys react to burden
Hallelujah there's someone who likes The Burden as much as I like!
he also didnt expect to make the glass break, it was unplanned and he squeezed until he broke it so the blood and look of pain was genuine.
My God, The Burden is fantastic.
I have to say I had almost lost my faith the past year 9 years into fighting cancer - stage 4. Yet it is not that so much as fellow Christians! Judgmental! Pastor had restored my faith that you can be so open to metal music! I've been through a divorce 💔 horrible
I love the way you can relate & communicate on a level without pushing religion. However at the end to take theology & how it relates is actually healing. No-one should judge you for that. Most Pastors wouldn't even entertain 'secular' music much less metal. Thank you
I admit, I lost all faith when my mom died. I had so much anger towards everything and everyone, including God. She suffered like no one should, but she never lost her faith. Two days before she died (last time I spoke to her), she said "I'm going home, I'll see you again. I love you."
I'm sorry to hear about the cancer, that's awful. Keep up the fight! It's nice to see pastors actually listening to, and feeling the lyrics. Here's to hoping others will be found.
I pray you're both doing well. God bless 💓
"He has such a deep love for her" ....
Me: aww they don't know yet....
Hahahahahaha i love it
😂
Hey I uh have a question, who is this song about? Paul Grey?
I had this exact same thought
Anyra Rahman as was already said, it's about a girl who Corey loved deeply but didn't love him back and used him instead. Since Gray's death, it's been used as a tribute to him though, so it's taken on a new, even more powerful, meaning.
People don’t realize the emotional pain he felt AS she was filming. His breakdowns were real, he hurt bad when he wrote this song. And it has helped me through hard times because I have felt his pain
Yeah..i saw it in the making of the video.. he really breaks down and cry. And clown comforts him.
This song ended up dedicated to the loss of Paul Gray and is a very emotional and powerful song for Corey to sing. He sings it acoustically and ends up very emotional when singing it.
Vermillion was dedicated to Paul. This was for a woman who broke Corey's heart.
@@mrhappy9056 On albums maybe. On stage this song is dedicated to Pual Gray. Rather the acoustic version Corey sings is dedicated to paul. So from a personal standpoint he dedicates the song to paul. The premise of the song itself isn't really for the woman but about her and his experience. It ended up dedicated to paul on stage from corey as it was the last song they actually worked on together and I can find nothing about Vermillion being dedicated in any way to paul other than joey and paul wrote the song together.
Vermillion was a personal song for gray more than dedicated to him. I'd say dead memories is more of a dedication to Paul as far as a full on slipknot song, but snuff is personally dedicated to paul in corey's eyes.
You are both incorrect. Paul died in 2010, and both of those songs are pre-All Hope Is Gone, which is the last album he was a part of. The song "skeptic" was the song most directly dedicated to Paul. But, to be honest, the entire album was called "The Gray Chapter", so pretty much all those songs were written with Paul's passing in mind.
@@kennelscene8456 I'm not incorrect. Corey dedicates the song to Paul when Corey does his performances with it just being him. You can find videos of it.
Snuff is about Corey Taylor’s divorce bro , Goodbye was for Paul gray I think
this song was influenced by several things... First was when Paul Gray died and several failed relationships. He wrote his heart and soul into it... its my favorite song by them even though i am a huge Slipknot fan. The lyric "Angels lie to keep control" are literally tattooed on my arm. This song to this day gives me chills.....
This song originally didn’t have anything to do with pauls death at all thougj
I'm gunna get that lyric tattooed on me as well this song hits hard
This song is the deepest and darkest I have ever listened too!
It catched me since the very first time I listened to it.
It's special and speaks a lot to me!
Every time I listen to it I hear a voice within me saying: "Embrace your inner darkness to reach your light".
Great song!!!
you should react to Bother by Stone Sour! Same vocalist (Corey Taylor) different band. He's an incredible lyricist.
Br0baFett yes definitely need to do it
Or "Through Glass"... Or better yet, "From Can to Can't" with Dave Grohl!
Agreed
So many Corey Taylor songs to choose from with Slipknot or Stone Sour.
Br0baFett well this version of snuff is just stonesour unslipknot the only thing I've true disliked about the bad allowing stone sour be in slipknot and not being just slipknot and making sure Corey and James don't bring stone sour into slipknot
Corey is raw talent he's even better when he sings emotional songs like this one the tone of his voice is just surreal. Please, do a reaction on Vermillion pt 2 the same band the same vocalist.
First pt1, aftee pt2 :)
And the bloodstone remix.
George ParZival should just do both parts in one video
Im so glad for at least one time i can watch some true Christians sit by and understand how deep some lyrics are without judging.
That song hit you in the feels every time
Just subscribed. Christians finding common ground with secular music and culture is awesome.
As someone who is both a pretty devout Christian and a fan of secular metal, agreed. Provided sound doctrine isn't compromised to "win hearts and minds" it makes for a fascinating conversation.
I'm a christian, and a pretty die hard Slipknot fan. We're all human, and God is in us all, even if we aren't in him spiritually.
i literally just subbed for the same reason
this is how it's supposed to be.
It's all fun until they tell you that you're going to hell.
Pisces by Jinjer.
Ukrainian band with female singer.
You will love the vocals.
Zach Phillips 😂
Zach Phillips yes
This.
Or anything by arch enemy
Have you heard this: Greyen by MergingMoon?
that lyric is everything...
what a gentle song by slipknot
Literally love you guys!!! Even 2 year old videos are amazing. Thank you for your time and energy, and the wonderful messages behind these videos. Thank you and god bless you!!
I wonder what you would think of "The Devil & I"...
Greg Potter They definitely need to react to it.
Th Devil *in I
Colin Averill lol
10/10 they would headbang off-cam
These guys sound like they would enjoy it. Most hard rock and metal aren't talking about religion much of the time and often talk about the demons and hells created by us for us. "Devil in I" referring to not being someone's (most likely himself) personal devil.
This song is so personal for me, I can completely relate to the pain of feeling like someone who was always there for you has abandoned you
I always enjoy listening to different opinions and prospectives on things I like. Thanks for showing your messages and views 👍🏻

Corey Taylor is a down to earth visionary, but I can see how Slipknot may not be for everyone. If you’re interested in hearing more from this thought provoking gentlemen, try some Stone Sour. In particular :
Through the Glass
Bother
Say you’ll Haunt me
Song number 3
#1Call me
ZZYZX Rd.
Tired, for sure.
My personal opinion is the accoustic version of song number 3 is the best
Nightwish - the carpenter
I"m not sure of course, but I think he's dealing with the lonliness so much to the extent that he dresses up as her in her old clothes, and puts on her makeup, etc. The title is called "Snuff" and things that are considered "snuff films" is typically a video of someone dying on camera. I think it can be deduced that the lonliness/abandonment has killed him (more so, metaphorically of course), and we are watching the memories of her, match up with his coping of the loss. Idk. Honestly, love that you're trying and wanting to relate to the youth at your church. When I started listening to Slipknot at a young age, no one desired to try and relate with me, and so it really means a lot with what you're doing here. Thank you for caring for those kids, they definitely need it. I needed it.
I started listening before I can even remember and their music has helped me through dark times
This post is so wholesome
Chas McBee well spoken
I thought the same about her being a memory, as if she were not really there at all, just that everything tied to her brought back the past, and the present loneliness. I took him dressing like her more symbolic, as in his life was so entangled with hers at one point, that when she walked away she took a part of him. Without her, he could never truly be himself again. I love slipknot and have listened to that song countless time, however that is the first time seeing the video, loved it.
The meaning of this song is to get back out of darkness after you have been left alone.
This song in particular is absolutly beautiful in a way. The acoustic version dedicated to paul gray makes me tear up everytime. and when you listen to it with the mental image of corey speaking to paul, it truly is a touching piece
Corey's writing and Shawn's (the clown) directing made this song one of saddest ones
Mr. Knot..this is too adorable
They both remind me alot to Rick and Carl Grimes from The Walking Dead.
That is awesome man!!
This randomly popped up on my list of watches. Good channel Robert! I like the perspective!
i think its really cool what you are doing, i stumbled on your Judith video and have been watching since, great job!!!!
Too many people over look vermilion. I don't 100 percent understand the song but it's very soft and you can do a 2 part reaction. Vermilion and vermilion pt2 are pretty much the same song but extremely different tones
Vermillion, being a shade of red, is about his ex-wife scarlet. Its very simply about the thirst for stalking and killing her. Vermillion part 2 is essentially written in guilt for having written the first part.
@@davecobb5323 kinda not sure if that is the full meaning but i do think part 1 is about coveting part 2 is little more vague
@@godemperordoom3695 that is 100% the meaning of both.
@@davecobb5323 Not quite. Both songs are about his own misconception of what she was. He placed her on a pedestal and was devastated to learn that she was not the woman he expected her to be. The conflict that arose was the driving force behind his jealousy of her and his attempts to control her. The song moves back and forth between what he knows is right (to love her and accept her) and what he needs to do (control her) because he is afraid of the part of her he refused to see (that she's a human being and not a saint). If you're only looking at Vermillion pt.1 and pt.2, you're missing a huge part. Listen again to The Nameless on that album and you'll see what ended up happening.
@@christofchaos its worth a google there chief.
Fun fact: The older guy is actor Malcom McDowell and lady in the hall with the dog is Ashley Laurence from the Hellraiser movies.
I was trying to place her! I never would've guessed Hellraiser so thank you for that.
"I got goosebumps"
Yes, that's what music that comes from the heart would do to you!
I’ve been watching this channel for awhile. I came back to this song, it’s been awhile, but I have to say that I’m surprised and grateful that you have not only embraced music as you have, and learned as much as you have, but are open to more. I say keep listening to music and giving us your perspective. It’s so good. Well done, all of it.
It would be really cool to keep the slipknot reactions coming. Their first 2 albums were made during the darkest parts of their lives. And almost every one of their songs talk about their lives.
Thanks for the encouragement. It's interesting to know that tidbit about the first 2 albums. Puts things in more perspective. It's interesting to me that a band at the height of their career, making tons of money, and having access to all the luxuries of life could at the same time experience the "darkest part of their lives."
The first album was mainly songs (the music, not the lyrics) from a former band the bass player, drummer, and guitarist were members of. That’s what Paul the bass player told me once before he died. So they weren’t yet at the height of their careers or really making any money to speak of. Even after the first album was released it’s not like they were instantly rich and famous. I don’t really care for any of their albums other than the first. It seems like they lost something after the first album that they were never able to duplicate.
Slipknot is my life man I've been listening to them for a long time
yup. I been down since MATE FEED KILL REPEAT
hello maggot
hElLo
I was baptized into the maggot life at ozzfest of 1999 when I first saw them on stage I was hooked
Same here man
You guys earned a subscriber just because you’re so respectful of the music and keep such an open mind. I wish more people approached things like you guys have. Looking forward to more content!
I got goosebumps at the same time Pastor Rob did haha Great videos guys I’m so glad I found this channel
David Terrazas me too 100%
A Perfect Circle - The Noose
Yes!
The thirteenth step album should really be listened from start to finish in order because each song correlates to one of the twelve steps of recovery plus one
Hey
The Noose- a perfect circle.... I've only watched a few of your videos (tool/APC/this one) I enjoy your take on things. I can feel your empathy and your search for wisdom. I'm an Athiest-Agnostic I appreciate you 💜
Thank you. I’m learning a lot along the way. I hope the video continue to improve as we all grow together.
@@roberthoughton7127 Christ is the way the truth and the light
Robert Houghton Weak and powerless also! The noose is definitely deeper though.
@@stevesherlock5334 I was thinking about that song too 😂
The noose, for real
The pastor is very smart he picked up what the song was very quickly
Yeah
Love this reaction video, you two are both awesome. Much love 🖤
Very impressed with how open minded you are. I am a Christian that feels abandoned by the Church and the world today and find solace in rock and hip hop. Lots of layers in music that need to be peeled back to see the true message and I think you will find that most artists are spreading beautiful messages through their despair and their views of the world today. Thank you for being so open minded. Please feel free to reach out to someone that feels like the Church has abandoned true believers these days for the money changers. Convince me that it’s not true.
I wholeheartedly agree with you. Many churches have marginalized people and things by making unbiblical rules and traditions, or simply because they don't understand them. Labeling it as evil or satanic without having a clue what it is. They usually fail to learn more simply because it scares them. This is why I started this experiment. to learn more and educate others. Even though I am relatively conservative theologically I reject traditionalism and outright detest legalism, as does the Bible. I feel like the church has failed in these areas and has alienated many because of it. Especially as it relates to the "Arts". I hope to be a part of the solution.
You definitely have kind of opened a sense of hope in me. I’ll be keeping an eye on your page as well. I was really surprised by the insight and how you leave yourself open to the experience. It was very interesting and I was actually surprised. Today’s environment in America is really divisive and it’s nice to see someone trying to bridge that gap between music and God. It’s hopeful and it’s inspirational. Thank you.
I was raised Christian and still do my best to be one. My grandma was my main teacher taught me at a young that you don't have to go to church to make it to heaven and that the devil goes to church too. Being a real Christian or Gentile only has 3 rules and one of them is to love your neighbor which not judging someone by their cover is a big part of that rule because it's not the church's job or anyone's job to do the judging. I have Slipknot lyrics tattooed on me from the Heretic Anthem. (Nobody wants anything I've got, which is fine because you're made of everything I'm not) Even though the main chorus is "If you're 555 then I'm 666." I've been a fan since I first heard "Wait and Bleed" on the radio. Their music came to me at a very troubling time in my life and not just because it was my teenage years. I picked the Heretic Anthem because not only are there other lyrics in the song that hit the nail on the head for me but the chorus to me said that if you are judging me and tormenting me because of your assumptions of who you think I am. Especially when it's done by people who are so called Christian. Then I'm already better than you in His eyes. One of the things my grandma told me when I was growing up when I was at a weak point was that God gives the toughest challenges to his strongest warriors which always helped me feel like I had a purpose. I wasn't a very big kid growing up or confident for that matter but God blessed me with one hell of a destructive right hook and Slipknot's music allowed me and taught me to channel my anger and hate. It gave me the push I needed to get up and to dig my toes in the ground and keep pushing no matter how much it hurt. Without my personal relationship with God and Slipknot's music I don't think I would have made it this far or be the person I am now. This Pastor/Father is fucking awesome. I would go to your church if I ever decided to become established to one.
So yeah, Actually I would really like to hear your thoughts and get your perspective on Slipknot's song "The Heretic Anthem." It would be greatly appreciated. And please don't beat around the bush to save my feelings if you read something else than what I got from it.
I understand you might feel abandoned, there's a lot of people that claim that so many songs are bad or evil outright. I'm Catholic and I'm a metalhead, some people think I listen to "satanic" stuff but I've got a few Catholic friends myself who are huge metal fans as well. I don't think the Church abandons people, I believe that people abandon people. Hopefully it's not an entire community in an area that turns their face away from people who are different. I think the problem is understanding and how the stereotype of "satanic metalheads" being employed by the louder voice from both sides of the "heavy metal is satanic" argument.
It's always cool to see that people like Geezer Butler (Black Sabbath's bassist) is Catholic and that Black Sabbath in general is made up of Christians. Just keep your head up and keep being yourself, God is always loving and understanding.
Pray for those who don't understand and who don't have an open mind, they need God's gift of Wisdom.
This is the Lyrics “SNUFF”
Bury all your secrets in my skin
Come away with innocence and leave me with my sins
The air around me still feels like a cage
And love is just a camouflage for what resembles rage again
So if you love me let me go
And run away before I know
My heart is just too dark to care
I can't destroy what isn't there
Deliver me into my fate
If I'm alone I cannot hate
I don't deserve to have you
Ooh, my smile was taken long ago
If I can change I hope I never know
I still press your letters to my lips
And cherish them in parts of me that savor every kiss
I couldn't face a life without your lights
But all of that was ripped apart when you refused to fight
So save your breath, I will not care
I think I made it very clear
You couldn't hate enough to love
Is that supposed to be enough?
I only wish you weren't my friend
Then I could hurt you in the end
I never claimed to be a saint
Ooh, my own was banished long ago
It took the death of hope to let you go
So break yourself against my stones
And spit your pity in my soul
You never needed any help
You sold me out to save yourself
And I won't listen to your shame
You ran away, you're all the same
Angels lie to keep control
Ooh, my love was punished long ago
If you still care don't ever let me know
If you still care don't ever let me know
I love how you keep an open mind for all of these songs and you are completely honest with yourself and whoever you are talking to
Snuff is one of the best songs written by the band, seeing Corey play it live is incredibly heartbreaking and emotional, it's usually played in memory of their bassist Paul grey who passed away a while back, I'm not religious guys but it's great to see open mindedness from you both in terms of listening to metal and alternate music
I'm a Christian & I have always loved metal music. I'm not a die hard Slipknot fan but that song was good
Thank you for being a true teacher of Jesus, I'm not much of a believer but I absolutely loved watching this.
God Bless you guys. Lord Jesus is king. Keep it up guys.
One of my all time favourite songs is snuff. Good choice😊👍
Love that you watched it with open hearts. God bless
Holy War by Thy Art Is Murder
Phil Green YES PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Second this!
Nahh torso fuck, yes the vocals and drums suck but why not.
Hell yeah man!
For sure . Deep message I love that song
I REALLY APPRECIATE WHAT YOU DO, FROM AN OPEN-MINDED AGNOSTIC💯💯👍
I think it’s one of the most darkly beautiful songs ever written
The best part about this is hearing your take on it biblically 🙏💕
Tool - Parabol + Parabola (Lyric video)
Please! My second favorite of all the albums and must be listened to together
Basically people wants them to listen to every tool song 😂 and me too
Just Tool nothing more. Lol.
I love tool, but if you haven't listened to them before, be ready for some deep messages, mostly true, hidden behind some new age.... I'm tempted to say philosophy, but I'm not sure that's what you'd call it. Lol. Amazing music, though.
Thank you guys! Question: My dad texted me "3000 BC, 1200BC, 900BC & 500BC.. Egypt, India, Greece & Persia.. ALL had a guy born Dec 25.. virgin birth.. 3 stars followed.. all had 12 deciples. all called lamb of God.. all teaching in thier 30's.. all crusified and rose from dead on 3rd day.. Jesus is just the last in this.. there's more to the story.. wow.. Utube! " ... Are you guys aware of this? Astrotheology seems to be the origin of these stories IMO. A reply would be greatly appreciated👍 Thank you again
Dude this is the song that anchored me as a fan for life Brings a tear to the eye always. Go see them live it's amazing 👍🏼
Can never not get emotional over this and awesome job ! Yall are awesome and I analyze everything so I understand what's going on that makes the music great when you can relate it to something or yourself
i like you Pastor, ur one in a million Christian who doesn't hypocritically judge worldly songs and see the true meaning of the song, God Bless us all, RESPECT 👍
Great work gentlemen! Looking forward to more!
Trying to understand and relate. Great qualities in a youth pastor ♡
My youth pastor was one of my best friends. One tip, I'd comment more on just the song rather than the video. I like the religious perspective and commentary. On Corey Taylor, he's a very deep and compassionate person. He also has a band called Stone Sour you should look into.
I guess I am finding this way late - BUT I'd love to tell you that watching you experience this song for the first time gave me goosebumps. The way you really felt the music - I could feel that. It's a very raw song, and you gave such very raw emotions. Beautiful. Thank you for sharing these videos! This is the first, but I have a feeling I'll be here all night :) Namaste
Said it before and ill say it again... Y'all are AWESOME. Love the videos, pastor Rob
The Sin And The Sentence By Trivium
Yes, please this one.
Good pick!, Shogun still my top album but it's too hard to pick a favorite song off it.
It's really a problem I'll hear a song off it and I'll have to play the album front to back 😂
Yes this song please
Great song
Lot of religious context in this song, highly rec ommend you guys review this one
So far I’ve seen you’re video on Judith and this one for snuff diff keep doing what you’re I highly respect the fact that you listen and analyze with a very open mind to where the songwriter is rather than condemning the fact that Maynard screamed profane blasphemies. I think if people are offended by religion enough that they are criticizing you two at all for relating the message In the song to what you feel in your heart from your faith they probably should consider their own sensitivities and avoid clicking on pastor reacts and analyzes whatever the song may be esp be it metal and of the topic. I myself am Wiccan and believe that the world is a better place when all can set aside personal belief differences and respect one another and one another’s right to their own beliefs all that is to just say don’t be discouraged by negativity and keep doing what your doing I really enjoyed these videos and listening to your thoughts on what the songs say to you. Running through the same vein of these other songs I recommend the bleeding by five finger death punch. It’s an absolutely great song that deals with relationship struggles and bad endings
Thanks for the encouragement. It's interesting meeting all the different people on here. It seems some stereotypes are proven true but many are proven wrong.
Well said!!!!!
I've followed god my whole life and i grew up in a verry unhealthy situation. I discovered slipknot in middle school and had noticed that Corey Taylor's writings spoke to how i felt at that time. I leand a lot and it even led to me finding the kids who relate to me... most also having a belief system. It was empowering and encouraged me to not be a victim, but to over come it. Needless to say im still a huge fan, and I'm verry connected the the inner workings of my church
As a person who just beginng his prayer jorney im so happy to have you to pass along to my friends in faith to help them open up to my love for mucic that they dont understand from a different perspective.thanks for you
I don't know your denomination but I applaud that you have an open opinion. When I was in high school I was in youth group through my church. I was chastised for listening to and even liking this kind of music because everyone thought that it was satanic. I never have thought that way about heavy metal but thank you for this
Blake Winfrey I tried to get a group of christians to listen to Metallica's 'Creeping Death' and failed. Much for the same reason.
That sucks I used to be a hard core Christian then found my faith in gods before christ cause god is a jealous god. Jealous of what? Oh yea the gods before him like Odin. But seriously satanic by music. Naaaa no way. Theirs no way to describe music as a personal reference of religion. It's all a matter of opinion. And you know in ways opinions can be sins so why have one about music. If you like it and enjoy it fucking listen to it and sing it if you like. Fuck the opinions and others down casting you for a music choice. I would never try to control a person's free yes FREE WILL!!!
The Devil in I by Slipknot.
I love these father/son vids. You two are great to listen to! Love y'all!
Do a review on vermillion pt 2 by slipknot
Why not 1 + 2 ?
Aww thats my favourite😍
@@jaypaans3471 The two together offer an interesting study in contrasts but pt 2 was their first track that really showcased the softer side of Corey's voice.
Man, I love how humble these guys are! Snuff is one of my favorite songs, 10/10 song with 10/10 commentary.
Thanks for the review guys, I found it oddly entertaining
Snuff used to be my cutting song. My cuts have healed and my scars remind every single day pain is temporary, Death is permanent.
I was never suicidal while cutting. It was simply anger/depression management. I am here, I am strong, I AM a survivor. Thank you Corey 💖
I’m proud of you for making it through that. I work with many youth who struggle with this. I hope they all make it. Some don’t. 😞
@@roberthoughton7127 I've lost 2 people this year to suicide. It's such a tragedy. They both battled this disease for many years before losing their fight. I just hope God sees it in heart to let them into the kingdom...
Sarah Busler so proud of you that you made it through it your troubles. That takes alot of guts etc so im so proud of you. Stay strong. You are amazing and never let negativity better you. You got this i believe you 💛
Stay strong, don’t relapse and be careful if things can trigger you. It’s a hard road to being clean but if you are persistent you will achieve
Thanks for all the kind words and support. You'll never know how much you all have touched me. Bless you all 💝💝💝
Great reaction guys! It's refreshing to see an authentic reaction. Some other channels overreact for the views.
I love the perspective this pastor gives. And I think it's so cool that he did not call them satanic. I definitely have him the thumbs up and I've subscribed now.
