Slipknot
Spit It Out (Roadrunner)
The Slipknot conundrum. On the one hand, you want to congratulate them
for reintroducing the notion of 'spectacle' to rock'n'roll. For being lairy,
scary and controversial. For having a few ideas. On the other hand, there's just
no excuse for such odious music. This is plain ugly. It's not even good bad
metal, which is often permissible. Like the Bloodhound Gang, Blink
182, Korn, Limp Bizkit et al, it's simply stupid music
for stupid people. I don't get it, and neither should you.
