SuperBacon Posted October 26, 2023 Share Posted October 26, 2023 Oh he's absolutely taking the mick (knowingly I reckon) there! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Gaffer Posted November 5, 2023 Share Posted November 5, 2023 The Trigger's broom of metal. It'll eventually just be Corey, Mick, and Jim, with Clown sounding pretentious in interviews and pretending to direct their videos. I've not even bothered listening to their latest album, and I used to love them so much. They've definitely made it into that weird stratosphere where none of this shite with albums or members matters anymore though, so whatever about my opinions.  I remember growing up during nu-metal and sort of just assuming that surely no band from that era would ever be the day's Metallica in 20 years. Fast forward 20 years later and any metal festival you go to is covered with kids wearing Slipknot t-shirts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Lorne Malvo Posted November 5, 2023 Paid Members Share Posted November 5, 2023 (edited) Slipknot are a really weird band for me in that I loved them in my nu-metal phase, liked pretty much everything they've done since and yet still wrinkle my nose a bit everytime they get bought up. I reckon it's because Mr Seven was a massive prick on here. Edited November 5, 2023 by Lorne Malvo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merzbow Posted November 6, 2023 Share Posted November 6, 2023 Corey Taylor doesn't make it easy not to cringe at them, he seems to have a bad take on almost everything and needs to go to the metal press to let them know every week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members TheBurningRed Posted November 6, 2023 Paid Members Share Posted November 6, 2023 Yeah Corey Taylor has actively put me off Slipknot. Which is a shame as they were the first real heavy band I got into. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WyattSheepMask Posted November 6, 2023 Share Posted November 6, 2023 First batch of bands for next years Arctangent have been announced. Some decent names in there that could tempt me  Download announce their first batch tomorrow too. Dino Cazares seemed to self-confirm Fear Factory the other night on social media, but otherwise they’ve kept everything close to their chest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Egg Shen Posted November 6, 2023 Author Paid Members Share Posted November 6, 2023 (edited) Speaking of Fear Factory and Trigger's broom, saw them on Saturday night and they were excellent. Milo the new singer is basically a Star in Their Eyes version of Burton C. Bell but he sounds great, that's all I needed.

I was at the gig on Saturday too!  Thought the sounded really good, really enjoyed it. I had been drinking since lunchtime though.  I’m sure I remember Dino saying they’d be back for Download.

Paid Members Egg Shen Posted November 6, 2023 Author Paid Members Share Posted November 6, 2023 Nice one! Sound was a tad ropey for the first few songs but it kicked in after that, was a cracking show. Nice to see them play some tunes they were unable to play with Burton too.

lanky316 Posted November 6, 2023 Share Posted November 6, 2023 It looks plausible by what's going on around various other festivals during the season and with that lineup in various permutations being close to a few of them with the odd switch. Guess we'll find out for sure soon enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
