    im pretty sure Corey and Jim brought the whole Stone/knot thing together... the rest just went along with it.

    How is Clown influential? He does mainly the videos. I find Root and Jordison to be the most influential. Would have been Gray but well....
    He is very influential. Until the point that he gets tired of arguing.

    It took Slipknot 3/4 of their AHIG Tour before they finally played Snuff live, although Corey wanted it to be in the setlist from the beginning. Clown was very against playing the ballads live. Where as Corey said "If we write the songs, why can we not play the songs live?" (Which makes sense)

    I read in a metalhammer issue that Clown was very against it, but Corey wanted to do Snuff and Vermillion Pt 2 live for quite a while, but Clown was resisting.

    About 2 weeks after the issue was released they played Snuff for the first time. I guess Clown didn't like that it was made public or something.

    By the way, Clown also does a lot of drum writing with Joey.

    way i see it...

    Clown and Joey prob most influenced Vol 3.
    Corey and Jim did AHiG
    and the rest the first two...

    Corey did a lot on Vol 3 as well, but you're pretty close.

    S/T was very collaborative with the exception of Jim and Corey.

    Iowa was written in entirety by Joey and Paul.

    He may do a lot of drum writing with Corey but I don't find him to be a major factor in the song writing

    Santana how are Joey and Paul the most influental? From what ive read in interviews those 2 probably have the heaviest influences musically. So i assume they wouldve preffered Slipknot to be on the heavier side, which is the opposite of what theyve done.

    I've read that Paul wrote a lot of the songs and Joey, while I have no proof, his get-go attitude right now makes me believe he gets on writing drum parts quick. Corey definitely had a great influence on the last two albums and Jim, as the main lead (I think) and as a guitarist, I'm sure writes many parts. As for the past 2 albums, I feel Corey has had a bigger influence on part writing for Root. I haven't heard or seen anything that makes me think Clown has much or any influence over writing. I feel Mick, Jim, Paul, Corey, and Joey have had the biggest influence on the albums

    I don't care about either. Both could go away and I'd be satisfied.

    I see both sides of the argument, and that it seems hard to continue without paul considering how close they all were, but i think joey needs to be realistic and realize they wont survive without corey taylor. Because fact of the matter is, the singer is usually the most recognizable part of a band, the most unique and individual instrument. they could fire mick taylor and jim root, get two other guitarists and i doubt many would notice.
    thats not to say bands cant change singers, but when youre already so distinguished in the music world, its hard to make a change like that. only exceptions id say are like ac/dc, stuff like that...

    Switching out guitarists changes (usually) the sound of an album drastically. More so than a singer. Exodus changed vocalists and while they are different, they still have a similar sound to TOTD. Changing a guitarist might not affect sound live, Zakk Wylde is an exception, but they most certainly change the sound of the album

    Now Slipknot, they could change guitarists and their live sound most likely wouldn't change but I bet the albums would sound different (unless Corey took complete control over the sound which is possible). Having said that, I feel with a change of singers, Slipknot would be very different live and on album

    i see what u mean, but im just saying that its easier to replicate a sound on guitar than a voice. theyre known for coreys voice, not their guitar playing, you know what i mean?
    but i do agree that the sound would change either way

    Yeah I know what you mean. Vocals are generally a defining thing for music. It's the first thing you hear when you listen to a song
