I don't either, but it tarnishes, and rightly so, his legacy.
yeah....for me i dont look down on him for it....and in my eyes he didnt have much of a legacy....he was in a band that helped me get into metal in the late 90's early 00's and i loved them...he was a good bass player....but its not like hes dio so its really not a big deal to me that he is dead....hopefully this will do one of 2 things for the knot....either make it so they never make horrible music ever again...or get back to there roots.....i do feel for his child tho thats sad

Well, I was recently thinking on Slipknot's legacy. I think they will go down as a poor band, but one that in the end did a service towards metal. At the same time though, they helped label metal as a misanthropic, angsty, teen based genre.
had they not made AHIG they would be higher on my list of fav. bands....there first two cd's i still like to jam out to every once and a while... ill never forget that show at the palace in Jan. of 09.....it was an amazing night slipknot tore the house down...the floor was wild that night and it was packed front to back....but i was second from the rail and corey said "you guys wanna here a song from the new album" ( and cause of the set lists i had seen i knew it was dead memories) and i yelled "NO!!!!" and he glanced at me and gave me a fuck you look....even tho he had a mask on lol
I was somewhat disappointed that the intro led into Gematria. It just seemed to have all this buildup and then fall flat. Would have been better if they'd linked it with Psychosocial.
