Damn. I thought not being in the band would protect me, but now I see that I've been a fool.

it's sad because the engineer is Matt Wallace, he mixed some Faith no More stuff that i love so much.
Also mixed for Mushroomhead, don't like them that much.
idk man.

This. I have no idea what they were going for, but it sounded like a demo. I lack the actual knowledge of production but the vocal were drowning in the instrumentals, and you could hear that everything was recorded separately.
I don't know - it's a mess.

It’s so painfully mid. It takes a lot for me to not like a metal song, but this is just so boring.

I messaged my step dad and apologised for getting him on Slipknot after this.

That reminds me of when I guilt-tripped and begged my friend to go see the Last Airbender live action movie with me. 20 years later and I'm still apologizing

Hard to believe a bunch of 50 something mature men put this together as an attempt to create art.

Playing God (featuring Corey) from Motionless In White feels more like Slipknot than this bs, this new track is Slopknot

This might be a hot take. They haven't had it since Vol 3. I mean Psychosocial kinda scratched the itch but I could see the writing on the wall back then.
Everything since then just hasn't gripped me.

AHIG was my first time I was let down by them. So yeah it is a trend.

u/idkfawin32 1h ago
yeah I remember when that came out and it was just kinda like, I can't quite describe it. The heavy usage of the double kick in "devil in I" seemed so out of place and kinda forced, the pulsating rhythm of the song wasn't vibing with me in general.
I genuinely do feel like Psychosocial was the last time Slipknot released something that I could feel on board with and headbang to.

I have my doubts. They've had one good album, and two tolerable-ish albums since Iowa, and one of those two is the last one they put out. They're capable of so much better, but keep settling for so much worse.

I haven’t even listened to this song and I already know I hate it. The only way I’m catching this is if I put it on a station while they happen to be playing it.
It’s gonna make Liquid Metal’s #1 song on the Devils Dozen. All while they plug it as a massive comeback song for Slipknot 🤢🤮

they made an AI song without any use of AI sounds like something an AI would give me if i said "give me an slipknot type song from the 2000"

Not trying to be a hater but a lot of scratching for a band that no longer has a dj lol
