I saw Slipknot back in '99 at Ozzfest when they were nothing. Their new album had been out for maybe 4 months, and after I saw them, I went and bought their debut CD. I happened to get the track Purity on the album which was removed shortly after release due to the lyrics being stolen.

I enjoy Slipknot's work. I can say their latest effort though I don't care much for. Their first CD with (sic) and Iowa were heavy ass, angry albums, but their newest was like, softer with a few acoustic tracks on there. Leave that pansy shit for Stone Sour, but Slipknot?! To say the least, they have pansied out a lot.

Their first album is untouchable though. Pure anger. I love it and I even have it on vinyl too. Vinyl is something produced back in the 50's, and died out in 80's. Say it with me, vi-nyl.

I have since moved onto heavier music and "left behind" their newest album.

My likings nowadays are Unearth and Lamb of God....Classic rock a lot too, but heavy is where it's at.

Oh, and Mudvayne suck ass. No way they are heavier than Slipknot.
