i love slipknot til the death but man imagine if they never had masks, i mean would this have all popped off like it did? probably, but no where near as marketable.
I’m so excited to hear what Eloy is gna bring with the new music! Hearing how Eloy is making the existing songs his own with his own fills and style, it’s insane how much Eloy has elevated Slipknot to new unimaginable heights! Jay needed a metronome to control his speeding up during the live shows, and Eloy is so good that they aren’t using a metronome live anymore! That’s amazing lol such a big difference and brings a big relief to the band!
@@nathandrums0 My comment was based on comments made by Jays live drum tech (Yeti) in Slipknot. You are correct as in I do not know if the drum tech was telling the truth. But one fact is that Jay struggled with Joey’s songs. Anyone that is familiar with music can tell he struggled live. But my comment was made based on the highly credible research done in this video below. No one has had any better research done that I’ve seen about behind the scene scenario’s with Jay’s time in Slipknot. If you’re interested in facts, you can watch it yourself here… My last reply to you is; there’s a reason Jay has been fired from every band he’s been in (also covered in this video) and after the research I’ve seen, I can confidently say, Jays nepotism is def rooted deep in Jays attitude as a drummer. Like, “do you know who my dad is?!” type of energy, and no band ever wants to hear that shit. Now onto to Eloy, he is against triggers, and if you’ve seen the live vids of Eloy in SK so far, they sound so much better with Eloy compared to Jay. They are tiers above when Jay was in the band, it’s objective, you can’t even argue that. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-UtxdmFpSVbg.htmlsi=Gb4Awh9AfD0PxT6Y
@@justinmiller9059 couple things: 1) he didn’t struggle to play the songs. He played them fine. The band as a whole struggled to maintain a solid tempo. Jim root actually mentions this in an interview from around 2-3 years ago. I saw it fairly recently and I’ll see if I can find it and link it here. He would not have been chosen to play with them let alone for 9 years if he was unable to play the songs. 2) slipknot has fired so many members of itself. And by slipknot, I mean Corey and clown. It’s no secret that they’re tyrannical. More than half the band now is gone and replaced. Jay was fired for “creative” differences which usually means unfair treatment or pay and he fought back because that’s now a pretty open fact about slipknot and how they treat each other. 3) Jay has not been fired from every band. This video isn’t “the most credible research out there.” It’s all spectacularly bullshit made assumptions about one’s life. Acting like a RU-vid video is a credible source is hilarious.
@@nathandrums0 Somebody get this guy a towel so he can wipe Jays peanut juice from his lips. You are blind an deaf if you think Jay had good tempo or had good blast beats or double bass rhythm
I’ll never forget this moment they played this song, I was in absolute pieces not just from the song but hearing the whole crowd sing along all together in perfect unison
