Slipknot is the epitome of bad music, it's like listneting to a bunch of poeple that were given instruments and don't really know how to play them. Of course i know they have a little bit of talent, but their whiney ass lyrics about haitng their parents and life, and wanting to kill themselves are lame...bad metal, bad music in general...the band sounds terrible, their music occasionally has a good riff here and there but overall their songs are some of the most pathetic compositions ever.

I'm sorry, are you sure that's slipknot you're talking about? They don't have lyrics about hating their parents. They do hate people, in general.. All the judgement and stuff.. that's why they have masks and boiler suits, because they want people to pay attention for their music, not how they look like or how they dress.. Though many people misunderstand that.. but try to get some knowledge about slipknot before you judge them. They are the best band ever! but I respect that not everybody think so, we all have different taste in music..

Well, I used to say before that that Slipknot guitar dud sucked and that his guitar playn´ was built on effects and sh*it. But now I doubt. I´m mean, there´s no doubt that Slipknot´s songs (guitar work) is just sh*it loaded of effects and stuff but I think that he actally is a good guitar player.

Here´s the reasonj way. Zakk Wylde and Dimebag are planing to start a band that would be somthing like G3 and guess who the third guitarist would be. The Slipknot dud. Since Dime & Zakk are pretty equal and both on of worlds greatest, I can´t see a reason why Slipknot dud (notice that I don´t know his name) would be bad. I have not heard anything cool by him but I´m sure that he is more than O.K. He also have a signature model of B.C. Rich guitars along with Kerry King.

PS. Greg Howe (one of fastest shreders out there) is now playn´ with FIVE. Now, people who don´t know anything about Howe would say of course that he´s nothing extra but lots of people don´t realize that guys who plays with those famous artist like Madonna, Michael Jackson, Bruce Springsteen... are amazing musicans who are much better than some famous ones. Just think about studio musicans, man they are good. The know evrything man.

Just shredding doesn't pay the bills, unless your name is Steve Vai or Joe Satriani.

I'm not stupid either. But Five is like Backstreet Boys with less musical integrity and talent.

I didn't claim that you are stupid.

I think I made a very valid point. I wouldn't give a **** who hired me if I would get paid decent money to tour and play guitar. And I doubt Greg Howe cares much either.

Five split up a couple of years ago. Keep up!

I´m sure that Greg was playn´ with Five and if you don´t belive, just visit his homepage.

that was at least a year ago, if not 2

Who cares? five sucks, hands down

for all you mick lovers out there he is going to be in a sideproject band that will show off his talent i think and i dont label slipknot and put them in a catagory they good music i like some diffrent "styles" of music

I don't think you are speaking of mick jagger.

no slipknot guitarist mick

gotcha

Yea, I know dude the band is called Stone Sour.

Thats a band I can dig. Much more than power chordes.
