the last minute of it was cool. and was a really nice payoff to how meh the rest of the song was haha.
I've never really gotten the outsized love for the first two, speaking as someone who only came tentatively onboard via "Duality." I find all their non WANYK albums various levels of patchy tbh, and even that could probably stand to drop a tune or two from the back half.
Ok. Final verdict. This was mostly not my cup of tea at all. The production was crisp and huge and that was cool to hear. Not a fan of most of the vocals on this. But "My Plague", "Skin Ticket", and "Left Behind" were pretty undeniable. Those were the only 3 songs I saved.
can't at all be excited for a new slipknot album/song until I hear something. adderall is the only song that stuck with me in the slightest from the last one, and every single heavy song felt extremely forced. they either need something to inspire them to write heavy songs, or just do weird shit like adderall
I hear you. Last album was trash water and completely uninspired, despite them trying different things. Nothing about it really ever caught my ear. Only tracks I kinda dig are Adderall and Finale.
My second Slipknot album I heard. I remember going to fry’s right when summer ‘04 was about to begin and getting it
