you people saying they've sold out - coreys a hypocrite, who nominates the bands!?! NOT the bands themselves, if you were in a fucking band who've worked hard to get to where slipknot are, and got nominated for an award you wouldn't fucking ignore it would you!! its acknowledging what slipknot have achieved which whether you like them or not it a lot, for band who didnt get manufactured in LA or the usual places, they haven't sold out they're popular still, even more so probably than they've ever been slipknot make music for themselves 1st and foremost then the fans if their music gets nominated then so what! metallica always get nominated have they sold out!?! - just coz a band get nominated for an award dont make em sold out, you wouldn't say this if it was the metal hammer awards! different story then isn't it!!

Slipknot have just been blamed of a "satanic" attack in a small town called Krugersdorp in South Africa. Apparently the dude came to school as a Ninja (whats that got to do with satanism) and weilded a Sword and sliced one guys throat open killing him and injured 3 others. He said Satan told him to do it. Oh and apparently his face was painted like Slipknot....honest can some one please grow up and stop blaming music!

Selling out. That's the name of the game these days. Sacrifice musical integrity for airplay and money.
  Dylan the redneck - 2008-08-18 15:11:55
Alright, so quite honestly. I hate what Slipknot has become. Ever since All hope is gone was realised it has ruined them. Corey is a hipocrite. R.I.P Slipknot
