Yo for real tho lmao damn I’ve been a fan of Slipknot since 02, I have the tribal S tattooed on my arm and to see them go out sad like this just breaks my heart
@@demongrunt7 to quote a comment from one of those interviews "if you ask chris what time it is he'll tell you the time, if you ask shawn he'll tell you how a clock works"
The best part is that you can tell Shawn is so happy to have not been asked the same 1000 Slipknot questions. Even happier to freely nerd out over something he’s passionate about, and allowed to speak as much as he likes about it. He absolutely enjoyed this interview.
Yeah, I van vouch, the last thing this dude wants to talk about is Slipknot anything. I talked to him years and years ago at a random show and he never once talked about his own band, only all the younger bands he was trying to get exposure for.
That’s what I care about the most in an interview. There’s literally THOUSANDS of interviews with slipknot members about slipknot. And the members themselves are most likely beyond sick of talking about ‘work’ for several decades, basically every day of their lives. I love seeing the artists I like get to just enjoy themselves and talk about what they themselves love. They’ve earned it
I love how Gitty shawn gets when he talks about video games. He's as gitty as you cousin with aspergers when you ask him about his hobbies. It's oddly wholesome.
I understand getting into video games to that degree.... I DO get it. Sometimes you come across a game that's much more than just a game, but my man is going a step or two beyond fandom. He's passionate and that's great, but this is a bit spooky. Hehehehe
This is gonna be a core memory for Nik...He will be on his death bed still smirking in bewilderment about that time he got to interview Clown, only to end up listening to him info dump about his minecraft server for an hour 😂
Thank you for saving me an hour and a half of my life. 20 mins in I’m like “ok enough of the video game talk” didn’t realize it was the entire video lol. I saw some people saying Nick‘s gotta ask him some hard hitting questions in this interview lmaoo be the voice of the people. What a waste
@@Phattypimp83 I knew I was doing the right thing when I unsubscribed from him after he made that shitty Taylor shit (I was already on thin ice with him beforehand after he kept sucking off modern bands, that shamelessly chase trends), cover a few months ago..
@@thomasleerling I can’t really call it bad, it’s just not related to anything important or pressing regarding the band or what fans want to hear about. Mainly just minecraft
Well it is clown and if you know anything about him, then you should expect it. Anyone who interviews him should expect a rambling, nonsensical, word salad. So yeah, it's funny that anyone should expect anything else after 25 years
@@wallymcshifty it's funny that people actually expect to be respected? He's always been a douche and some of the rest of the band members from the original group. All the good guys left.
Not really. He has no musical ability whatsoever in a band of "9" that realistically only needs to be 4. I really like Sid though so we can keep him in. Clown is really good at marketing, business, and sounding like he's philosophical. He's creative with telling stories. The most surprising thing is it sounds like he actually knows a little bit about programming. Probably hung around with enough developers and coders to be able to mirror the language, just like he's hung around enough musicians to mirror the language of a band.
@@noperception5073bruh slipknot wouldn't be slipknot without all 9. they all are songwriters and the masks and them being 9 members and their overall appearance on stage is what makes them slipknot. sure, it could sound close removing some members. but they wouldn't bring the same music and perhaps the band would've never even been made. no need to be salty and for negativity, just appreciate the band :)
I hate people that say shit like this when they don’t know that all 9 of them write and play other instruments like clown can play the actual drums he chose to be the guy that hits kegs and floor drums.
@@noperception5073 The real question here is: How do you know? You live with him or something? These kids, man. Always trying to sound like they know everything.
As unorthodox as this interview was, this is some raw real shit that you never get to see. This is some of yalls favorite artist spilling his guts about a personal passion/hobby. A rare glimpse into the every day life of a member of one of the biggest act rock ever has seen. Can kinda tell this is something he has wanted to get off his chest for a while. Either Nik was in on this and this was a planned topic, or he was a good sport who probably threw up after this and cried 🤣 Either way im glad it went down. Give us more.
That was genuinely one of the best interviews I've watched! Guys like Shawn have had the same interview millions of times over and to hear one that was just him sharing a passion project with us is freaking awesome!
I feel like to Clown it's more refreshing to talk about something else other than Slipknot 😆 on that note though it's funny to hear him talking about games and minecraft servers but also cool that he is passionate about this
I'm sure most of the comments are gonna be "clowning" the interview (lol), but I thought this was wholesome AF. Everyone is like "he didn't talk about music, derr" well no he talked about his passion. That is all it is. Why bash that? The dude is in Slipknot and has been doing music for a while. Maybe he's tired of the same old interviews asking "who's the new drummer" "What's Corey up to" "What's Slipknots future" just enjoy something outside of music for once 🤷🏻♂️
Okay yeah but they have a history of making big moves like firing members w out explanation.. like I get being annoyed w the same slipknot questions but fans genuinely want to know what’s going on 💀 as they rightfully should
@@ProjectGRIDLOKT ya true, but he’s a core member and most ppl see Corey and clown as the “leaders” of slipknot so I figure he can at least say somethinggg
Shawn is such a cool cat. 4 minutes in and we're already talking about HTML CSS Photoshop Premier Rocket Launchers, Quake, Deathmatch CTF ... man..... Guy is still such a kid at heart still and I love to see it.
I am 51 years old and when they say "life is short" or "life goes by quickly", I know that it is not so, in my case. Live life the way you want, do what you can do today, and don't leave anything for tomorrow because often tomorrow doesn't dawn...
This is an insane, absolutely mind-boggling interview that could only be possible with Shawn Crahan, and at the same time no one could expect this interview from Shawn. Legendary interview for posterity and the culture.
It’s actually really nice to see that Shawn is into the Minecraft thing because of his kids. When I was young my dad and I had this thing where he would break my slipknot CDs and then I would go buy them again.
I love this! I’m 52 yrs old and have been a game nerd since pong and super break out. I broke my intelevision by taking it apart to see how it worked! My kids & I are gamers, artists, musicians and all slipknot fans! Back in about 2012 my son was like 11-12 and my daughter was like 7 and they lived to play the sims and they had a ton of the expansions and one was the ability to create your own skins and I showed them how to use the digital camera and scanner and pretty soon after they had made slipknot as their neighbors and Frankenstein and his bride , Rob Zombie, my son recreated the cabin from evil dead and Ash! There was Batman and the joker and in so much detail and the creativity and amount of work that they put in was nuts. I am sad that I didn’t understand how to preserve it and make it permanent somehow.(if that’s even possible. But it sounds like this is exactly what He’s making on a newer better platform and it’s just great to see and I am kinda reinvigorated and inspired by the way he’s so excited and making something shareable and lasting! And family is at its core. Nerdy and awesome and very human and connected with and for the best things! What a trip the way art and culture, music, and family of all kinds whether your born in or your chosen family, it all connects and when your intentional and inclusive in how your create and share, it really takes on a life of its own eventually! This was great and thanks to you both for sharing it with us.
Slipknots 1st album was the only time I ever waited in line for a midnite release. Was a 3hr round trip for a CD but f'n worth it. I will never forget thier show @ Pops in STL opening for coal chamber in '98. I've been to 154 metal/hardcore shows & that one will always be #1. My grandkids are gonna hear about it too. Much love Shawn 🤘💀🖕
@@Doomchild2XL Right?! It was crazy that they didn't headline but I think that had more to do with Roadrunner records. 80% of the venue left after Slipknot.....it was impossible for any band to top that.
Big love and respect Nik this, Shawn with Joey on shoulders was awesome watching icp interview other day and all the stories back in day of how it started
Shawn explaining quake, and the rocket launchers with the power jumping, and everything of the sort is so true to my own experience. I couldn't stop laughing.
This is the Clown interview I didn't know I needed. 90 minutes of personally relatable topics and, most unexpectedly, the first NFT concept that my brain doesn't immediately reduce down into a grift.
I still use track IOWA for meditation and working.... even for relaxing before going to bed... thanks Shawn... thank you Slipknot for so much help trough the years
Hey for all it's worth, I think Shawn is an awesome dad. It must be insanely difficult being in one of the hottest bands for better part of past two decades and still being there, supporting, monitoring, providing and loving for your family. Good job my dude
57 years old here. I have been a huge fan for years! And after watching this interview I'm an even bigger fan of Clown! Huge gamer from the start just like him! Gaming got me into IT back in 1993 and still doing it and gaming since. While listening to the greatest music ever! You are a legend Clown and would love to meet you one day.
This is actually wholesome and hilarious at the same time. Dude is way more passionate for minecraft than we thought. He even has his favorite block just right off the top of his head lol. Its cool to see that us normal people arent too different the celebrities of this world.
This shined a whole new light on who Shawn is. We usually always look at the music and business side. We sometimes forget these people are humans and need time off. We just feed and want more and more. This interview is an eye opener. I am glad to have watched this!
As much as this minecraft server actually sounds like it could be really cool, as someone who's run several servers, having an infinite survival world in multiplayer for a long time is just not sustainable. Think of stuff like 2b2t. It never resets, and it's the reason a lot of people play the server, but also the reason a lot of people don't play the server. It's really hard to see it lasting a long time. The dome thing sounds cool though. I think that could be a massive success, especially if you get kits that you get more access to as you get more kills or whatever. I'm open to paid kits as long as you can't just buy your way to the best kits. TLDR I think the survival won't last, and the dome could be super cool and unique. Edit: Having music discs from different bands as well as slipknot and being able to build a catalogue could be really fun. Also I would've liked to hear a bit about the band and a little more insight into the reason Jay departed/was fired. BUT This is a Clown interview not a Slipknot interview. This interview is happening BECAUSE of the minecraft server, nothing to do with the band. The reason Slipknot is in the title is to tell people who Shaun is, because not everyone knows who he is.
Dude this is nuts. I know that this is just 2 humans shooting the shit, but this is also Clown from Slipknot.. Such a F****ng icon in your field. How was this for you?? I can only imagine, this would have been surreal to say the least. Keep it up man, you're doing sick things. Interview after interview with these absolute legends.
This was pretty cool!! It gave him another dimension other than slipknot and weird art stuff..it was cool to hear him talk about some stuff he likes and enjoys other than the same questions ole questions over and over about slipknot
Did you expect Clown to drop some world shaking Slipknot news in this interview? Apparently everyone in the comments did, and its even more apparent 99% of the people here haven't spent the last 20+ years with Clown and this band. Y'all got baited into a Minecraft vlog. Hahaha. I love it. Thank you Clown for always being you🤘🤘🤘🤘
That was so nice to see Shawn just yapping away about something that means a lot to him. I bet he was happy that he wasn't being asked about the " new masks" or the " new album " What a cool guy... he's the same age as me, and totally rocks the grey look!! Love him!!
Holy shit! My man Crahan is so extremely wholesome as fuck and I just love his whole vibe! Reminds me of me so much, just lost in the mind and rants 😂😂❤
Shawn, The first time I heard your band was at '99 Ozzfest Vancouver. I remember the details. Legend. I love you. You have an amazing family. Peace and Love.
This interview was Nik interviewing Shawn, not Nik interviewing Clown, ya know what I mean? Not what I expected but I thoroughly enjoyed his infectious passion.
So cool to have a dad who not only co created one of the most popular metal bands but games. I'd love a game from his twisted mind and hell, even a slipknot themed game. Young or old, nerds are nerds. We think someone like him lives in a dethklok type home and plays nothing but dark games but of course, he did, just after 40 years, grew out of it or gets enough dark and edginess on tour.
Smash like to throw block and sub for more idk random metal things
Interview sucked homey. trash.
Nik just sitting there like "👤"
While it seems like Clown had the first opportunity ever to talk about his passion for video games.
And i love it

He became famous just to be interviewed and talk about video games
Another Billy Corgan
@iamnuvr late but I mean they literally had a song about a video game Anders and Clown used to play (the song is Slipknot off of MFKR)
@@killjoythefreak yeah! that must be a pleasure to him, not only being recognized for being "clown" from knot

You thought this interview with Clown from Slipknot is about Slipknot? WRONG! Minecraft it is!
NO, it's about the CULTURE(tm)
its like the jasta show with tom barber again

Not complaining
Nik: did you go poop today?
Shawn: well, back in the 90s we had what’s called a… etc
😂😂
Back in the late 90s-early 2000s we developed a brotherhood until master drummers started intimidating my keg drumming so I had to part ways with them
"It came out back within, like my soul" 😂
The most cringe quote I’ve ever heard from him was when he said “There’s blood in the air, there’s art to be made, within the “brotherhood".

It’s because Slipknot has an official Minecraft server
I think it was the whole point of this interview

How was this for you?? I can only imagine, this would have been surreal to say the least.
Keep it up man, you're doing sick things.
Interview after interview with these absolute legends.
Wolfenstein 🤘
This was pretty cool!! It gave him another dimension other than slipknot and weird art stuff..it was cool to hear him talk about some stuff he likes and enjoys other than the same questions ole questions over and over about slipknot
Dude that question was genius, it made the interview very nice I felt he got to talk about something he enjoys
This is dope hearing about his passion for gaming
Im so happy for Shawn
Did you expect Clown to drop some world shaking Slipknot news in this interview? Apparently everyone in the comments did, and its even more apparent 99% of the people here haven't spent the last 20+ years with Clown and this band. Y'all got baited into a Minecraft vlog. Hahaha. I love it. Thank you Clown for always being you🤘🤘🤘🤘
I'm 20 minutes into this interview and loving every minute of it. Shawn is hilarious. So refreshing
so excited that Shawn is actually into game development. as a guy who loves metal and does game developer at the same time, this is awesome to know
That was so nice to see Shawn just yapping away about something that means a lot to him.
I bet he was happy that he wasn't being asked about the " new masks" or the " new album "
What a cool guy... he's the same age as me, and totally rocks the grey look!!
Love him!!
I love how this was just about Clown's interests
I was waiting the entire time for Nik to ask him about dedotated wam
Holy shit! My man Crahan is so extremely wholesome as fuck and I just love his whole vibe! Reminds me of me so much, just lost in the mind and rants 😂😂❤
love to see the man. Very good conversation .
This is the greatest interview i’ve ever seen😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
this feels like a fever dream
You are the best man!!
Omg, I didn't know Clown was so into gaming......mystery gone XD I love alcohol too....
a minecraft slipknot concert would be an event i absolutely couldn't miss
This convo with Shawn is right up my alley, I'd have so many video game questions to ask
This interview blew my mind to the point of being surreal! hahahaha
4:10 “but wait, I’ll keep it real quick.” coming from Shawn is just classic as he goes full on. Great interview.
The whole NTF talk just made me realize JUST how old Clown is
Excited to hear Nik talking about all the weird shit he saw in "The Dome" and what he built
Shawn, The first time I heard your band was at '99 Ozzfest Vancouver. I remember the details. Legend. I love you. You have an amazing family. Peace and Love.
"Throwing block" sounds like a Shawn Crahan original. Love that guy.
This interview was Nik interviewing Shawn, not Nik interviewing Clown, ya know what I mean? Not what I expected but I thoroughly enjoyed his infectious passion.
If anyone is going to a Slipknot concert soon, please make a sign: "How much do you play Minecraft?"
So cool to have a dad who not only co created one of the most popular metal bands but games. I'd love a game from his twisted mind and hell, even a slipknot themed game. Young or old, nerds are nerds. We think someone like him lives in a dethklok type home and plays nothing but dark games but of course, he did, just after 40 years, grew out of it or gets enough dark and edginess on tour.
Heavy metal, gaming, and living life great episode!
This is amazing
I love how clown can’t deal with any sort of fake bs he’s so real and to the point
The most words spoken without saying anything at all
I grew up playing all those games. I still play Quake 1 & 2 to this day, probably my all time favorite games.
lmao loved hearing him talk about video games. He should make one, if anyone's got the money for a passion project game it's that guy!
one of the most surreal videos i've seen in a while tbh
never expected to be excited about a room tour of Clowns Minecraft server but here we go ♥
❤ Love it. Guy is a true performance artist.
I'm only 5 minutes in and this is already the best Clown interview I've seen.
It's so crazy seeing Clown all gray and white.
Nik you did it best interview please do more with clown if you can
Everyone: ask him about Jay
Nik: Minecraft
Everyone: 🫠🥴
I’m listening to Shawn talk video games with Slipknot playing quietly in the background while reading the comments in tears laughing 😂😂😂
