Slipknot - All Hope Is Gone

[zeropunk16]

Now I understand that a huge majority of people on this site dislike/despise/fucking hate Slipknot. And that's OK. You are entitled to your opinions, that's what makes this site so amazing.

But I figured that there are some people on this site that do like them and are excited for the new CD coming out.

So I'm hoping that this thread can kinda stray away from bashing Slipknot.

With that aside.....Who's excited for this?!

[littledudeman]

I'm pretty excited to hear it. I wasn't a big fan of some of there early stuff but definitely enjoyed vol 3 and am excited to hear this record.

[handlikesecret]

the album titles says it all.

[SLoT]

I'm stoked. Fuck it. I liked this band's first cd. They kinda lost me on their next two, but I'm excited anyway. I also dig the cover art if what you posted is the cover art.

Yeah, that's the cover.

[SLoT]

Yeah, that's the cover.
I dig it a lot.

[Getup and Dance]

I dig some of slipknots work, I might give this a listen to.

Here's the video for their new song. Check it out.

[Deth]

I liek slipknot but can they lay off of the drum triggers it sounds so enhanced it's ridiculous.

[Regards]

Slipknot = Decent nu-metal band, but terrible metal band.

[speak easy]

i fucking hate slipknot

[Angylion Gefell]

I might check it out.

[wewascontenders]

they wear masks.

[ThemChains]

Another Pantera clone with radio ready melody thrown in.

[DilesMavis]

This band suxXxXx.

[SLoT]

Another Pantera clone with radio ready melody thrown in.
Rather another Pantera clone then another synthpop band.

[ClydeMcAllister]

So the album leaked.



The verdict?



Not so good.

[Machu505]

I fucking hate this band.

[drudo182]

I heard the new single on some radio station and I couldn't believe how poppy it was. I thought these dudes were supposed to be brutal? Maybe I've always had that wrong.

[dissident]

no they've definitely softened up.

are they purposely not swearing on this new cd too?

[ThemChains]

Rather another Pantera clone then another synthpop band.

Either way, noke air evar.

if psychosocial is poppy....i'm bill clinton

[drudo182]

if psychosocial is poppy....i'm bill clinton

Well, hello Bill.

[fran.182]

Well, hello Bill.

i know that would happen...ah ah

[Kid B]

Slipknot is possibly the worst band ever.

[thesafeword]

What I hate about Slipknot is their image, I'm not sure how to explain it, but they just look like fucking assholes trying to cover up bad music with a shock factor image so teens can act like they're rebelling against their parents.

[drudo182]

i know that would happen...ah ah

Okay, so it's not like straight pop but it's something I can imagine singing along to.

[summer skin]

Stone Sour > Slipknot.

[drudo182]

Vomit in my mouth > Slipknot > Stone Sour

[ThemChains]

Stone Sour > Slipknot.

lol

[ThisIsNotDan]

Slipknot is possibly the worst band ever.

that isn't possible because they have some musically talented members

[drudo182]

They're definitely not the worst but I wouldn't say they are that great.

[Kid B]

I could care less if they're talented musicians, they definitely aren't talented at writing music.

[ThemChains]

I could care less if they're talented musicians, they definitely aren't talented at writing music.
This.

[Troggy]

Slipknot > Underoath ?

[GuitarR0cker1]

Slipknot is pretty terrible.

[Kif]

I liked Vol. 3 :shrug:

[tfar06]

I liked Vol. 3 :shrug:
whats ur avy

[Kif]

Michael C Hall as the Riddler.

[Blueskyburning]

Doesn't matter if they can't write a decent song.

Slipknot are awful, and Pantera have a lot to answer for regarding nu metal.

[ThisIsNotDan]

Doesn't matter if they can't write a decent song.

yeah, but worst band ever is harsh

[MyNameIsRoss]

Slipknot = Underoath ?

:-d

[Troggy]

:-d

They could be the same band, Slipknot always wears masks. corey taylor is only in the slipknot part of slipknot/underoath since he shows his face in stone sour

Actually I'm pretty sure just unnecessary members of Slipknot would be enough to cover underoath quite well.

[HelloKitty69]

I'm terribly excited for this new album.

I like the song "Phycosocial" right now, but I'm ready to hear some harder lyrics than that.

[MyNameIsRoss]

The trash can player is definitely the fat guy in Underoath that makes the unnecessary ambient sounds and electronic drum loops. No doubt in my mind.

Actually, I think that Slipknot can not cover Underoath, it's more of the other way around, because Corey Taylor can't do what Spencor does.

[kearn1tm]

Rather another Pantera clone then another synthpop band.

Neither is necessary and ideal.

[tfar06]

Michael C Hall as the Riddler.
thats what i thought. is that shit official or did someone make it?

[zeropunk16]

Actually, I think that Slipknot can not cover Underoath, it's more of the other way around, because Corey Taylor can't do what Spencor does.

Why? Cause Corey doesn't have a vagina?

[xerovision1]

oh my god

[HelloKitty69]

Why? Cause Corey doesn't have a vagina?

No, because Corey doesn't have the balls, nor the drug issues, that Spencor has.

[Jumpoff]

No, because Corey doesn't have the balls, nor the drug issues, that Spencor has.

and he isn't brutal enough for Jesus, either.

[zeropunk16]

No, because Corey doesn't have the balls, nor the drug issues, that Spencor has.

Yes, but Corey doesn't have Christ. And that's a win in my book.

[drudo182]

People trash Spencer and those dudes so easy. You know they really could care less.

[tfar06]

Yes, but Corey doesn't have Christ. And that's a win in my book.

haha

[thesafeword]

Underoath, the official band of Jesus.

[tfar06]

You can't spell.
it was intentional to emphasize the sound of the word instead of spelling...

[thesafeword]

You can't spell.
Because ****** is censored.

[tfar06]

Underoath, the official band of Jesus.
jesus would probably take mewithouYou before UnderOath...hopefully.

[Jumpoff]

jesus would probably take mewithouYou before UnderOath...hopefully.

I think Jesus would take whichever band brought the harder mosh, personally.

[tfar06]

this album isnt going to be worthl istening to. Slipknot is a classic, Iowa is replayable for a few tracks, Vol. 3 was complete trash and the new song is not that good. might check it out because I used to love this band.

[thesafeword]

Well, Underoath kind of made themselves the official band of Jesus, they're pushy like the churches that all say that they are the church of God.

[zeropunk16]

it was intentional to emphasize the sound of the word instead of spelling...

Maybe they do that in Pittsburgh, but in the good ol' USA, we spell correctly.

[tfar06]

I think Jesus would take whichever band brought the harder mosh, personally.
oooooolllllllllldddd norma jean

[thesafeword]

I think Jesus would take whichever band brought the harder mosh, personally.
Underoath would win hands down, unless they're in that gay ass Bargot's, or whatever, that restricts their brutal awesomeness.

It's actually decent. It's going to take a couple more listens to get used to though.

the new song just sounds so damn generic and....i dunno slipknot kinda solidified their sound on iowa and now its just... they havent moved on. i dunno, if im listening to the radio and that song came on i wouldnt change it, but i definitely wont download it.

Iowa is still my favorite album of theirs. I'm sad that they'll never get back to that, but oh well.

I like how on the website he has to put a disclaimer that slipknot sucks because he wants to keep his scene cred.

[thesafeword]

Scene cred> other cred. I understand.

Lol pwn.

[summer skin]

I don't know where it got 23 minutes...I looked through the page to see if it had anything of interest but it was either underoath or bands I had never heard of but were RIYL Devil Wears Prada/Enter Shikari. Put up These Arms Are Snakes and then we'll talk.

[Kerplunk_23]

I'm not afraid to admit it,I love slipknot all their albums are amazing and I am psyched for their new album to come out.

im trying to find that too.

[ThemChains]

Jeff are you lurking this kid's site in the hope of touching his wiener?

[TheHitcher66]

Pyscosocial is an aweosme song, but that's all I have heard of new album. Going to actually buy this one rather than downloading it ^^;

[OdeToTheSun]

Psychosocial and the title track are both great.

[Circa1628]

I like the first two songs I have heard from the album, can't wait to hear the rest

[andrewa5]

Ive never really liked slipknot but there new song is pretty sweet!

[zeropunk16]

Jesus! ".execute.", the intro song is amazing!

Brings back memories of "(515)"

[summer skin]

song would be better if it was called "Jesus Execute" like I initially thought you said.

[zeropunk16]

Haha. It actually would be better if it did. I miss the anti-Christianity overtones. That why I love them.

[Kif]

thats what i thought. is that shit official or did someone make it?

Nah it's just an edited picture.

[a speedo model]

I enjoy the CD a lot, might pick it up tomorrow depending how cheap it is haha. One or two songs aren't that great other than that it's better then their last but still not their best. Love me some Slipknot.

[airik625]

I still need to get this. I've just been too busy with new music lately.

[Ouch]

this is my favorite slipknot album so far, but that isn't saying much at all.

True, just informing you.

[Hawthorehgts]

I love Slipknot. But, All Hope is Gone disappointed me greatly. This isn't the Slipknot I remember. It isn't as heavy. Not that I don't enjoy that there's more emotion on this record, because I do. I just miss how they used to be.

[ryanlynch]

I used to like them

[maxvsmaradona]

I used to love slipknot. I'll occasionally put on Vol. 3 (The Subliminal Verses) for nostalgic purposes.

[lurker411_k9]

this was such a disappointing cd. i loved them when i was like 14, but times change i guess. i'll still crank the self titled and iowa every now and then though.

[icantdecide]

I've been trying to get back into Slipknot the last few days. I loved them when I was a teenager, and looking back, they really do have a few good tunes. "Eyeless," "Prosthetics," "Purity," etc.

[Hawthorehgts]

I adore Slipknot, and I have since I was nine. But this album disappointed me so greatly. They aren't the same band.
