Slipknot's an awesome band. They're music's great for when you're really pissed. The vocals are crazy and their main drummer is freakin insane. One of the best metal bands out there. I wish they would take off their masks for one music video though.

I love nu-metal, and I can't stop listening to Left Behind. Slipknot rocks, altho the talent varies a lot. Number Seven (Mick) is AMAZING, and so is the Clown (think his name is Shawn). But the member (Craig?) with Nine-inch nails sticking out of his head and never talks (...while that IS pretty cool) only helps with guitar effects...and seems pretty unnecessary at live shows.

I think that slipknot is actually a good metal band when I first listend to them I thought that the band was really bad but after a while it grew on me and now they are one of my favorite bands.

fear of the dark!!!!!


Slipknot don't have a song called "Fear of the Dark". You're thinking of Iron Maiden (who are 100x better).

He has a fast bass pedal roll, probably the fastest. When it comes to hands...here are some:
Kieth Moon
Deep Purple drummer whatever his name is
John Bohnam

They're okay, but I think there almost leaning on nu-metal. I do think that the nine people in the band, the timpani drummer, and the overly-done masks are all gimmicks.

No I can think of plenty of drummers who are faster at double bass than him. Just off the top of my head: George Kollias from Nile.

They're not leaning on nu-metal. They are nu-metal.
