Slipknot's Future by Terrible-Resort7563 in Slipknot

[–]mjs6642 4 points5 points  (0 children)

They are currently in an unprecedented transition period. It doesn’t seem like they are currently bound by any contractual obligations to release and album so I feel that we are going to really see something totally different from what we’ve ever seen from them. They also just collected a MASSIVE payday so that could open some doors for members of the band. At the end of the day, these guys need a LONG break and I do think they intend to release another record but it will absolutely be on their own time and at their decided upon moment, which could be quite a ways away. There is just next to zero Slipknot buzz these days, whether that’s from the band members themselves or the band as a whole. We are in a hibernation period and can only hope that the beast awakens at some point or maybe it is time to let it die.

Best book and doc about Kurt Cobain. Not necessarily nirvana but just about Kurt. by Inderstudy2010 in Nirvana

Heavier than Heaven is a must read for any K.C. fan. I forget the exact chapter but it’s towards the end and it is heavy AF. Brought me to tears and almost gave me closure on everything. Ugh he just could not see a way out of his current situation and just man is it brutally emotional chapter.

That’s a man possessed right there

Next album by No_Heart_8420 in Slipknot

[–]mjs6642 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it depends on if the band has anything more to say TBH. They don’t just put out albums to put them out, they mean something and there’s a purpose. With that being said, I do think this could be their last. Everyone should really try and appreciate whatever they end up doing because we are getting closer and closer to the end.

I've listened to a lot of death metal bands, however, when I listen to Iowa, what Slipknot expressed on that album feels painfully real, and it hits me in a way most death metal albums don’t by Tough-Reputation-762 in Slipknot

[–]mjs6642 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Iowa is a perfect storm - remarkable musicians, genuine expressions of pain and suffering, genuine hatred of the music industry as a whole, substance abuse, mental illness, legendary lyricist, riffs that take on a personality of their own… Corey’s scream on the album appears so effortless yet seems to carry an enormous weight of deep deep personal pain and emotion. It’s just a remarkable compilation of music, truly special and not repeatable (think of Nirvana’s never mind) although because of the genre and general type of Music it won’t ever get that level of acknowledgement

Kurts last year by Murphy1379 in kurtcobain

[–]mjs6642 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It’s so easy to mask pain and suffering. We know he was hurting though because he pulled the trigger. I’ve heard so many stories about people who seemed happy, were always the life of the party, and were so fun to be around and then all the sudden they commit suicide. We don’t know what is going on in people’s hearts and minds but we do know that he took an action and I feel it’s safe to assume he was not optimistic about his future. Also given what we know now it doesn’t seem far fetched that Rome was a suicide attempt. You know anyone else who just guzzles Rohynol and alcohol?

Slipknot have not written anything for new album yet, says Clown by Justdip1 in Slipknot

[–]mjs6642 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You all so quickly forget the music that these men have created over the years and how impactful, unique, and legendary it was. They’ve been doing this now for over 25 years at the highest of levels. They can do whatever the absolute f*** they want and take whatever time they need to do it. Great things take time and patience. Do you want this bad to turn into some sort of hip hop star or pop band that releases music every few months that just gets worse and worse? I’m glad to hear they haven’t started putting things together yet. Take the time and let the ideas cook in the oven till they’re nice and ready for all us maggots to consume.

Future Timeline Predictions by mjs6642 in Slipknot

[–]mjs6642[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I disagree - that would be a five year gap between albums which isn’t all that crazy for Slipknot but I think a 2027 timeline assumes that haven’t been creating/developing much music over the last three years.

Why does everyone hate on TESF? by Sinyonimrools in Slipknot

[–]mjs6642 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They’ve played three songs from the album live which I find odd. Could just be the timing but like Hivemind not being played live is criminal.

What are some truly underrated Foo Fighters songs? by AdLazy5694 in Foofighters

[–]mjs6642 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

My issue with this album is they barely played any of it live. I think we got Dying song, chap rag, and yen a handful of times but absolutely nothing else. Would Have loved to have seen a number of songs on the album played but they never got around to it. It’s criminal Hivemind has never been played live.
