The only decent thing about slipknot is their drummer...otherwise, the whole masks and whatever has been done before.

Musically, they are not strange or very talented (other than the drummer). no.gif

I can't stand King Diamond either mellow.gif

They have a great vocalist...
And they're great writers.

Man, it's like I'm talking to a brick wall here.
Cept chances are the brick wall has heard more Slipknot than you guys w00t.gif laugh.gif

The vocals are actually one of the biggest problems I have with Slipknot. As for everything else musically, they're really just not that unique. Most of the reason I don't like Slipknot is that I just can't physically listen to them. I mean, you listen to them...or you can listen to a band like Lamb of God or Mastodon, who are AMAZING and there's SUCH a huge difference.

Everyone copies Alice. yes.gif AC was wearing make-up in the late 1960's.

Kiss were a bit different IMO tho. But KD is a rip-off wanna be with satanic overtures. Boring.

1971 The first AC eye make-up.

Kiss came out in like 1972 and King Diamond not until the 1980's.

I love the Coop! wub.gif

Haha, Alice Cooper 1969=GHEY. I actually don't care about the makeup really. I do like King Diamond, but from what I've been able to gather you LOVE Alice Cooper, so I figured I'd screw around a little. Dead Babies=awesome song. Alice Cooper in Wayne's World=awesome.

Edit-But also you mention "rip off wannabe with Satanic overtures. Boring." and all I could think was Slipknot.

grin2.gif Is it that obvious that I like Alice Cooper? I thought I was being subtle... happy.gif
I was just demonstrating that AC has been copied a lot more than ppl realize. He's sited as an influence a lot and most kids today have only heard "School's Out". Pity, really. And yes, "Dead Babies" is awesome. And for everyone who has never heard it and is freaking out, it's about child neglect not baby killing. yes.gif
