Slipknot is awesome (IF you like the style)...
if you don't like that style...you'll hate it.
i like it, when i'm in the correct mood...
and off course...the guitarists aren't that special...but i don't care...
What is really dislike is, that people like Malmsteen and Vai and so on are called gods.
they are NOTHING!
they just bring out albums so they can show off their guitar-abilitys. i know...they're some of the best guitar-players around, but they're not the greatest musicians!
i don't think they care much about the music, they only care about how cool they sound going up and down scales redicilously fast...
ok ok...i might have gone a little too far by saying this, but it was on my mind...
