New Slipknot

Post by Fairweather Pure »

Augest 16th. All Hope is Lost

Here is the first single, Psychosocial.

Is it bad that all I can imagine while hearing this is how great it would be to play on Rock Band?!? I swear that game was genius for that very reason.

Corey Taylor has said that this is their hardest album yet, which is a pretty fucking bold statement IMO. I'll believe it when I hear it.

Anyway, I can't wait. I like this song a lot and look forward to more angry Slipknot music.

I have always been fascinated by Corey Taylor. His vocals are amazing, but most of the time you would never even think that. Definitely looking forward to this album coming out.

Its funny because as much as i like Slipknot, one of my favorite songs is their slowest one, Vermilion Pt 2.

For some strange reason, I also like Slipknot.

I heard two of the tracks (found it on piratebay) and I like them.. a lot... As far as it being the heaviest yet? I wont keep my hopes up, that way if it is i'll be pleasantly surprised. I still think their first album was their best so if it can live up to something between that and Iowa, i'll be happy. Theres always hope!

When he said heaviest, I was under the impression that he was refering to the lyrical content...

It says hardest, not heaviest.
Although I'm sure he meant the same thing. It doesn't really have anything to do with anything. Metal bands are required by the laws of nature to say their new album is the heaviest, most brutal, blackest, hardest, etc. yet.

I actually thought this was an incredibly boring song. I kept expecting it to take off, but it kind of just sat there for four minutes then ended.

I'll still check the album out when it's released (or there is a fully leak online), but my expectations aren't very high after that.

Never been a big Slipknot fan, but I'm really liking this album.

I think it is the least heavy out of everything they've done so far. It's not bad, it's not great.

Wasn't too impressed, but it grew on me a little..

Not a fan of the whole SlipSour sound they had going with it.. And no way is it heavier than their first album. It has its bright spots though..
