    Corey Taylor is crazy. He's got a solo career and leads both Slipknot(harsh vocals, crazy fills, and masks) and Stone Sour(close to only clean vocals, no masks). He's collaborated with a few rappers, too(Tech N9ne, Kid Bookie, etc).
    And the Slipknot fanbase are called Maggots.

    Slipknot is kind of THE metal band almost every metal fan has embraced, and because they cross genres and touch on those primal emotions that we can all relate to, they are VERY prolific. 100% I think you should check out a few more of their tracks. They’ve also been around for years, and they have a multitude of different sounds. I’m positive you’ll find some that suit your tastes. Their early career is more harsh and thrashy, while the new is more melodic but refined. The one thing that Slipknot is, is pure. The music hits different when it’s pure, and they have the skills to keep their spot at the top of the NuMetal podium. Enjoy!

    RIP Paul Grey and Joey Jordison. I first got into Slipknot around 99-2000 with their first Roadrunner Record. And the Iowa record they dropped a few years later. Always been a fan of their unique blending of genres and crazy live performances. And Corey Taylor's vocals on top of it all, just took it to another level.

    Clown, is a classicly trained percussionist, if I have it correct.
    Yes he does use metal kegs and oil drums with a baseball bat beater authentically. So any of him beating a metal keg or oil drum in a video he does for real during performances. This has generally done his wrists and hands in early, but he still gives 100%.
    The band are a 9 piece unit with a storied and dramatic history,consisting of :-
    Lead man, Corey Taylor
    Two guitarists (lead and rhythm)
    Bass guitarist
    Drummer
    2 Percussionists including Shaun "Clown" Crahan. Clown is also a backing vocalist.
    A keyboard/synth player
    A DJ/record scratcher

    Our fandom name is Maggots. Also, thank you so much for being willing to check them out despite having a prejudice view of them initially. That shows great maturity on your part. Rock and Metal have a very undeserved amount of prejudice against them as being evil, violent, satanic or just straight up noise when that couldn't be further from the truth. It's the same as someone saying all rap is about h*es, drugs and gang stuff over the same recycled beat when we all know that's not true either. Rock can be energetic (Metal/Thrash), have hip hop elements (Nu Metal), slow (bluesy, power ballads, ect) and so much more. It's so much more than just noise and aggression. It can be beautiful, heartbreaking and emotive. It's simply a different way of expression. I hope you continue a deeper dive into this genre. I see you have a good head on your shoulders and can come to truly appreciate the skill needed in this genre (vocals, lyrics, instruments, composition, ect.).
    Some songs I recommend to check out: Alter Bridge - Blackbird, Metallica - Fade to Black, Alice In Chains - Would, Slipknot - Snuff, and Audioslave - Like A Stone should be a good starting point.

    ⛔️ Long comment ⛔️ (I have Asperger’s) Great reaction and a great 1st Slipknot choice. I’m a 41 yr old born again Christian metal head who started really getting into metal in the mid ‘90s so I feel like I can be a good resident metal ambassador to this channel, as I also love hiphop.
    Metal and hiphop are the most masculine-testosterone-driven genres of music, lots of machismo. Both genres started in the ‘70s and the band most credited for the origination of metal, Black Sabbath, got their inspiration from a horror movie with the same name. So that’s why you’ll find a lot of creepy, scary stuff in metal, but even that is just a fraction of what you’ll find. The genre has evolved and branched out over the decades.
    Metal from a sonic standpoint is really all about the guitar riffs and the drum beats. The more adrenaline pumping riffs and beats the better the metal in my opinion. Some bands are more repetitive than others and utilize hooks and other bands are more into the technical side of musicianship, playing hard and/or fast pieces of music with lots of changes, so beware of that. Not all metal sounds the same, although it might at first lol.
    I don’t think Slipknot are devil worshippers. Is there a lot of devil worship in metal? Sure, but mostly with underground bands I’d say, but it’s hard to say who’s doing it for real and who’s just doing it for the shock-effect. So, you’ll find a lot of horror elements in metal, not every band creates from that vibe however. A lot of metal bands are just all about adrenaline pumping energy and you’ll find a wide variety of topics in metal lyrics. It’s a very diverse genre, like hiphop, with different vibes for different moods or settings. But overall, metal is a dark, scary, and energetic style of music, but you’ll also find beautiful and uplifting metal.
    Besides horror movies, metal was originally inspired by blues, rock, classical, jazz, and then punk was introduced to metal and this where you get thrash and the more pissed-off drill sergeant style vocals. Pretty much every genre has been mixed with metal.
    Just as the krump style of dance manifested in hiphop, metal has its own high-powered energetic, violent style of dance. It’s a sight to see a whole pit of people doing karate ninja moves all to the beat next to each other, it looks like a gang fight. You see this more at metalcore, hardcore, and deathcore shows because these sub-genres have a lot of breakdowns (which originated with funk & hiphop) than at regular metal or thrash shows, where at the latter you’ll find a more pushing and shoving style of dance. I’m too old and out of shape for that now but I’ve gotten my dance moves on in several pits growing up. I’m more of a metalcore guy.
    Slipknot is considered nu-metal which is a rap-inspired sub-genre of metal, but they incorporate thrash metal, death metal, and dabble in metalcore. Pantera is more groove-metal but both bands are legendary in the metal community.
    As for more Slipknot songs to checkout, Psychosocial is another good one for newbies. My personal favorite album of theirs is their self-titled debut album from ‘99. The 1st track on that is just a 30 second creepy/eerie clown sounding piece of music, but tracks 2 thru 6 are all great in my opinion. Tracks 4, 5, & 6, “Wait and Bleed”, “Surfacing” and “Spit It Out” are good for newbies. Surfacing and Spit It Out have turntable scratching. As the releases become more recent they’ve evolved to incorporate more melody and singing. For a Pantera introduction, I’d say “Cemetery Gates” or “Cowboys From Hell” would be good songs to start with. This comment is more than long enough so I’ll stop here.

    They actually put a lot of thought and science behind the masks. Not only the imagery for each member but yes, for vocalization. That's why you see more vocal members providing backup vocals have slits on the mouth. But also Coreys mask has changed drastically from being very restrictive to the jaw to being more free and engineered.

    Speaking of the masks, Corey Taylor scratched his eye because one of his original masks had dreads and it would hit his eye when he was headbanging. If you want to hear how good Corey is at singing, check out his live acoustic version of "Snuff." And he can metal rap amazingly well in "Spit it Out."

    You called this a journey and that really is a good word to describe what you can go on with these guys. The amount of crazy spitter flows you'll find will surprise you. I recommend I Am Hated off their second album. Not much screaming but the lyrics got that crazy flow. Enjoy you Slipknot adventure.

    The name given to slipknot fans is "maggots". Tech N9ne actually references this in the song Like I Ain't. Where he says "Tryna ride all the way up to my homie in Slipknot (maggot)".

    My only gripe with the music video version is that they cut the song in parts (not massively) but on the album version there is a badass build up into a final outro with that main punching riff which is just *chef's kiss* .

    Duality was on the third album that came out in 2004, it was uploaded to YT later. Also the members of slipknot have done many interviews on how disgusting the masks can get, especially in their early career they were notorious for not washing them between shows and the smell was disgusting. I saw them at ozzfest 99 when they came through Vancouver and they were insane, 9 guys all on the B stage just going crazy.... they were terrifying and mesmerizing at the same time.
    ETA slipknot fans are called Maggots... Clown came up with the name I believe when he looked out at the writhing mass of the fans and thought they looked like maggots on a carcass. As for another slipknot song Id say almost anything off their 1st album. But maybe sic, surfacing or wait and bleed specifically

    When you're stressed out and exhausted, at your whits end, and you pinch the bridge of your nose and you rub your eyes with your index finger and thumb (Push your fingers into your eyes). This song is about stress, dealing with stressful situations. "Its the only thing that slowly stops the ache, and it's made of all the things i have to take, jesus, it never ends, it works its way inside, if the pain goes on, I'm not gonna make it" It's all about how he's not coping with the stres, and it's making him angry, frustrated, irritable, but also tired, indifferent and hopeless. It's a duality, to care so much and yet so little, to just want things to be over.
    Slipknot's music conveys emotion more than anything else. Anger, sadness, stress, rebellion, hate, self loathing, terror, but also confidence, hope, love and elation. There are so many songs in their catalogue, and each conveys the emotion perfectly.

    Every member of Slipknot changed their masks every album cycle but both guitarist Mick Thomson and Jim Root masks don’t changed usually it’s minor changes. Their are nine members of slipknot starting with number 0-8 and their they show their numbers on their jumpsuits.

    Paul Gray plays bass guitar on the first four slipknot albums. Drums Joey Jordison #1 1975-2021 Joey Passed away on July 26th 2021 passed away in his sleep is was only 46 years old, Joey plays drums on the first four slipknot albums, Joey left slipknot in 2013 due to a medical issue suffering from acute transverse myelitis. Its symptoms started in 2010 while touring with his other band Murderdolls, but the disease was diagnosed long after.

    Vocalist Cory Taylor said in a interview the reason why Craig doesn’t talk is because that who he is, a guy that can speak but doesn’t, Cory Taylor also said this when Craig does talk it’s scary because he will be right behind you and you don’t even know he’s their and Cory said when Craig speaks you listen and the band gave him the nickname the quiet one.
    DJ/Turntables Sid Wilson #0. New Slipknot Members are new bassist Alessandro Venturella nickname V-man he replaced Paul Grey on bass Alessandro joined the band in 2014 on Slipknot 5th album .5 the Gray chapter.

It always fun to see when people watch something outside their normal genre for the first time. Im 45 now and I listen to all types of music now. It took me most of my life to do so. And if you have never had a migriane, im happy for you. I feel Corey's pain there. They are not fun!

    A lot of people interrupt metal for "devil music" but its very emotional for the most part.
    From what I know about the masks were originally meant to give the members anonymity and put focus on the music instead. Each member designs there mask and they have meanings behind each one. There are videos on YT explaining them. They change the mask every album and sometimes per tour.
    Slipknot has a lot of songs that are great, some of my favorites are Devil in I, Psychosocial, Wait and Bleed, Snuff, Before I Forget, Nero Forte, and Duality. There are more, but those are my most listened to songs from them.

    I was in this video! March 2003. Crazy to think that I was a couple weeks from turning 19, and here I am all these years later pushing 40. Some fun facts:
    1. Casting call for the extras was placed in the Des Moines, IA newspaper. Out of the literal thousands who came and applied, only 400 of us were called to be extras. One kid legitimately flew from England, and Corey caught wind of this. He ended up inviting the kid to stay at his house while he was in the States.
    2. All the house and yard damage was real. This was filmed at a house under renovation in a West Des Moines neighborhood. The owners were gracious enough to loan the house to the band for the video, but no one anticipated the cold rainy late March weather and by the time filming was done, the yard was an absolute mud pit.
    Over the course of 16-17 hours, we absolutely destroyed damn near every inch of the property to the point that Slipknot ended up having to buy the house. We absolutely destroyed it.
    3. The party that ensued the night before as all of us fans converged on the bus pickup site (West Valley High School) was absolutely legendary.
    Crazy 24 hours. Next to the birth of my kids and the day I got married, this is one of the greatest days of my life. Also had cool personal moments with each band member, including those who are no longer with us today.
    Now if you'll excuse me, this whole thing's got me feeling incredibly old now that I'm realizing this shit was 20 years ago...
