Are Slipknot really metal?!


Question: Are Slipknot really metal!?
A question that sparks some heated discussion amongst my friends!. I wanted an opinion from people who know what they're talking about!.Www@Enter-QA@Com


Answers:
I think the genre they're in is nu-metal (whatever that is)!!

They are a metal band, but there are so many sub-genres now, who knows exactly what genre any band is in!. I couldn't care less what genre they're in, i like their music, that's all that matters!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

They are metal!.
Yes okay, they're not a patch on Black Sabbath but Slipknot are Nu-Metal!. I mean seriously, listen to some rock bands (Kings Of Leon/Muse/etc) and then listen to Slipknot!. Slipknot are a LOT heavier!.
I know a lot of people here have said that Slipknot are not metal, but it's only because they don't like the music and perhaps they are big metal fans and wouldn't want Slipknot to be associated with that!. I'm not even that big on Slipknot (some stuff was good, but I hate that new song) but I do recognize them as metal!. Www@Enter-QA@Com

They are Nu Metal!.!.!. so I guess they are metal in a way, but they're not because http://www!.metal-archives!.com does not include them, that is the metal Bible! If some band is not on there they are either underground or not real metal!. Since Slipknot is mainstream and not on MA, that means they are not really metal!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

From what I've heard, I wouldn't call them metal - but then, I've only listened to one album so I could be wrong!. (By the way, just because a band isn't metal doesn't mean they suck, even if I really don't like the songs I've heard so far)!.

And to the idiot a few posts above me - Nightwish is nu metal!? Wow !.!.!. you are totally clueless about music, aren't you!?Www@Enter-QA@Com

As i am more into extreme elements of metal!. I believe that there S/T and Iowa had some thrash and death elements to their sound!. Joey toured with Satyricon and Mick plays in death metal side bands!. But Vol 3 was stone sour part 2 and All Hope is a bland and generic cd!. So at one time they were somewhat of a metal band but now there is need for them to call it a day!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

No!. They are Nieu-metal or cartoon metal or bubblegum metal or faux-metal or suck metal!. Plain and simple, they are watered down enough for the mainstream and that's not even close to what metal's all about!. Costumes and masks are pretty gay too!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

Slipknot basically fits under the same genre as Nightwish and all of those other nu-metal bands I don't care to learn the names of!. It has metal elements to it, but it's definitely nothing like traditional metal!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

okay, I think they are, but not very good at it!.



anywho!.!.!.!.!. at bone z!.!.!.


You are retarded, and I hope you never have children!.



Did you say Nightwish is nu-metal!? did you!? I hope you diaf!.


also, NW is most definitely metal!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

NO definately NOT METAL they are in a neo genre!. Metal is guitar licks and screaming vocals that you can understand!. not yelling!. Slipnot actually sucks the sweat off my balls!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

I would call them Nu Metal!. I like Subliminal Verses album myself!. I see most of you all hate them, and i can respect that!. They're no way near one of my favorite bands though!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

No, they're just hard rock!. Metal is more Metallica, Black Sabbath, Def Leppard, Pantera, etc!.Www@Enter-QA@Com
