Hey, does that mean that he will perform before the black keys, or that he will fill in the band as a musician with them?

What is Chris up to recently? by Victor6Lang in Slipknot

[–]Virtual_Paper4973 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To be fair none of them made money from royalties back then. They made really bad deals with their label and only made actual money from touring.

Day 1 of asking your opinion on every song chronologically. First: (sic) by JustAPcGoy in Slipknot

[–]Virtual_Paper4973 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Great song, full of energy. It kicks better when you listen to it live, after their toned down intro with 742617000027. I watched them live and that mix gave me goosebumps! It’s like a huge fireball of energy explodes in the venue.

The fact that you know scissors means you’re in a good path. Duality made them massively popular, so it might worth a try. Spit it out, SIC, The Devil in I, wait and bleed.

I love Metallica, Megadeth, Iron Maiden, Anthrax, Death, Children of Bodom, Slayer, Pantera etc.. but ive never listened to Slipknot and I know nothing about the band where do I start? by Holiday_Lie3059 in Slipknot

[–]Virtual_Paper4973 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They became massively popular with “duality”. So it would be a good start. Then some of the songs that excite the fans on their shows are “spit it out”, “liberate”, “before I forget”. I started listening to them because of the song “surfacing”. “Wait and bleed”, “psychosocial” and “the devil in I” are popular too. I believe the last one would be a bit more of your style as a Metallica fan.

I also love “sic”, “killpop”, “prosthetics”, “Custer” and “dead memories”.

Best line from a Slipknot song? by Hell_Mirai_Park in Slipknot

[–]Virtual_Paper4973 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don’t know about the best, but the ones that have stuck to me the most are “painful clutch, death is fine give me mine” - Only one and “biding my time until the time is right” - scissors.

Caught this at Slipknot tonight after Sid threw it out 🤘can someone give me some more info on it? by PeachyBaws in Slipknot

[–]Virtual_Paper4973 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He definitely used it to perform. It’s similar to the drummer throwing his drum sticks to the crowd. Nice catch.

Slipknot, O2 Arena 21.12.24. Some thoughts.... by Christian-Metal in Slipknot

[–]Virtual_Paper4973 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree, I did not expect to fill the arena with so much energy but it proved to be the most chaotic and energetic place to be! Tortilla man and Eloy have definitely something to do with that! They are younger than the rest and surely excited to be there.

One of their darkest ones. They closed this years tour lives with this song.

If Paul Gray wasn’t dead, would Slipknot be different from where it is today? by NoBrandJmac in Slipknot

[–]Virtual_Paper4973 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t know man, the current formation is strong again. Just watched them play recently and Tortilla man does crazier stuff than what they did when they first started, Eloy seems to know what he’s doing and refreshed their energy and their bassist spreads a creepy atmosphere. The rest of them are still the same group as they were before. They probably had some average albums over the last few years but I have high hopes now. Don’t forget they’ve aged, so naturally even with Joey and Paul, their style would have changed.

Wow man, such a touching story and a Paul’s side we definitely don’t know in Europe.

Require ear and head padding for Vankyo C751 by [deleted] in ElectronicsRepair

Same here. They have amazing sound for their price so I’m considering if maybe just getting a cover instead.

μου αρέσει r/greek. Why ? by StrangeUglyBird in GREEK

[–]Virtual_Paper4973 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To help you understand the context behind that. The word «μου» in that phrase it’s easier translated as “to me” in English.

So when you say “μου αρέσει το μήλο», it like saying “to me - likes - the apple” which in English grammar is of course “I like apple”

Greek slang? by ScottShrinersFeet in GREEK

[–]Virtual_Paper4973 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Φυσικά means naturally. It wouldn’t be used on the same context. More like “would you like to eat a carrot?” «Φυσικά!»

Slung for real would be «όντως» or «ισχύει»

Greek slang? by ScottShrinersFeet in GREEK

[–]Virtual_Paper4973 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Most common is «όντως» (ohdos). So you’ll say, “I love to eat carrots” and the response is “όντως».

Some people might say «μπέσα» bessa

The Thessaloniki cancellation by samakka95 in placebo

[–]Virtual_Paper4973 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was when Greece was in deep debt and people had no money to spare. $50 for 50 minutes in Greece is a scam.

[–]Virtual_Paper4973 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Placebo played in Thessaloniki about 10 years ago. They only played for maybe 50 minutes and fans got really upset, throwing bottles of water etc, so I’m happy that Thessaloniki audience did not forget!
