My friend who is in London for the Navy right now is going to a signing and is getting his girlfriend to get me a copy of their new album with autographs.

He's gonna try to get backstage passes from them, pull out the "I'm from the MidWest" card on em, and explain that Slipknot has cancalled all 4, yes 4, concerts they've had here in Nebraska since 2000.

The concert in 2001, the pledge of allegiance tour, was cancalled cuz of 9/11, the concert was supposed to be the 13th, I had tickets :(

and slipknot arnt commercial..when is the last time you seen them on a tv show(cept of a live performance of conan o'brian), do you see big stands at music shops dedicated to slipknot.....no.

Right. Have a lookat music stores here and I'm sick of seeing them setting up big stalls selling slipknot's CDs only. They are boring. Even MTV thailand over plays them IMO.

sorry to psot once again, ive listened to it three times

bottom line: if you have never liked slipknot, give this a chance, BUT if you loved slipknot for their heaviness, dont expect much

if you are up for Slipknot experimenting (like Toxikk), than this is also the cd for you

true die hards of this band will for the most part hate this, but overall most wont...expect this cd to sell a few million...i think

one last thign...i counted 4 new versions of "Bother"...good luck to all "metal" fans on this

this cd has some grooves --- Opium of the people, the blister exists, three nil--are my favorite songs...all the chorus's lack...on all songs...

rick rubin also made them use too many harmonizing vocals, and double vocals...WAY too much...i want opinions on this cd from everyone that posted in here

Slipknot ? Vol. 3: The Subliminal Versesb>

PRELUDE 3.0b>

I don?t know why, I never told you

And, I don?t know why, I never tried

When we shed, these bitter skins again

All the reasons, come to life

But now it?s over?

I don?t know why, you never asked me

And, I don?t know why, you never cared

When we hide, these little sins again

All the reasons, have to die

But now it's ovTHE BLisTER ExISTSisTER ExISTS

Drop it!

Bones in the water and dust in my lungs

Absorbing, archaic, like a sponge

The ultimate way is the way you control

But can you stay if you detach your soul?

Bury the present and squeeze out the past

The ones You?re endure to never last

Chemical burns and the animalistic

I?m just another Hard line pseudo-statistic

Can you feel this?

I?m dying to feel this

Can you feel this?

Blood on the paper and skin on my teeth

Trying to commit to what's beneath

To find the time is to lose the momentum

You learn the lessons and immediately forget them

Automatic and out of my reach

Consult all the waste to find the key

Minimal life and the polysyllabic

I?m just another blank page -- Push the button, pull the rage

Can you feel this?

I?m dying to feel this

Can you feel this?

I am all, but what am I?

Another number that isn?t equal to any of you

I control, but I comply

Pick me apart, then pick up the pieces

I'm uneven!

I am the damaged one

All my life and the damage done

Can you feel this?

I?m dying to feel this

Can you feel this?

I?m dying to feel this

I am all, but what am I?

Another number that isn?t equal to any of you

I control, but I comply

Pick me apart, then pick up tTHREE NIL;m uneven!

THREE NIL

1, 2, 3, No!

Chaos -- it's just the beginning

Every promise I made I?m rescinding

Center mass in the middle of the monster

I?m getting tired of drowning the constant

Cry for help -- It's debatable

The only reason that you love me is I?m hated by all

Come on -- come see dysfunction

I guess were gonna leave it open for discussion

Who am I? And where am I going?

Maybe I'm looking in the wrong direction

Maybe I'm looking for any direction

This is not my war -- this is not my fight

This is something more -- this is not my life

(This is not my) Revolution

(This is not my) Convolution

(This is not my) Expectation

(This is not my) Desperation

Holed up, scarred and tamed for the hell of it

Look at me -- I am the glorified malcontent

Save me? Save this

All I gotta do is give up and all is forgiven

I?m sic! -- of being the butt of a cosmic joke

And I don?t get the punch line

A million people lined up for miles

To see the great big mouth shut up and apologize

This is not my war -- this is not my fight

This is something more -- this is not my life

(This is not my) Revolution

(This is not my) Convolution

(This is not my) Only reason to question why

Today, I said goodbye!

Goodbye!

Oh I didn't need to leave to stay right here

Today, I said goodbye!

I'm the pariah (Break Me)

I am the liar (Save Me)

I can't take anything (Make Me)

Accuse me of everything (Kill Me)

Cut off the system (Slay Me)

Deny my existence (Waste Me)

I won?t be afraid (Try Me)

I won?t be unmade (Deny Me)

So come on -- break it off

Come on -- buy the lie

Come on -- say it, say it

Come on

Say goodbye!

Goodbye!

Oh I didn?t need to leave to stay right here

Today, I said goodbye!

Goodbye!

Oh I didn?t need to leave to stay right here

(I push my fingers into my) eyes

It's the only thing that slowly stops the ache

But its made of all the things I have to take

Jesus it never ends, it works its way inside

If the pain goes on...

I have screamed until my veins collapsed

I've waited as my time's elapsed

Now all I do is live with so much fate

I've wished for this, I?ve bitched at that

I've left behind this little

You cannot kill what you did not create

I've gotta say what I?ve gotta say

And then I swear I?ll go away

But I can't promise you'll enjoy the noise

I guess I?ll save the best for last

My future seems like one big past

Your left with me cause you left me no choice

(I push my fingers into my) eyes

It's the only that slowly stops the ache

If the pain goes on, I?m not gonna make it!

Put me back together or separate the skin from bone

Leave me all the pieces, then you can leave me alone

Tell me the reality is better than the dream

But I found out the hard way -- nothing is what it seems

(I push my fingers into my) eyes

It's the only thing that slowly stops the ache

But it's made of all the things I have to take

Jesus it never ends, it works its way inside

If the pain goes on, I?m not gonna make it!

All I?ve got -- all I?ve got is insane

(I push my fingers into my) eyes

Its the only thing that slowly stops the ache

But it's made of all the things I have to take

Jesus it never ends, it works its way inside

If the pain goes on, IOp1um Of THE PEOPLE

All I?ve got, all I?ve got is insane

Op1um Of THE PEOPLE

Come on!

Watch those idiosyncrasies

Watch all the idiots fall on me

Running out of ways to get outta the way

Take another shot just to say the same

But I need some balance -- back it off

Fill your ol? lungs 'till it makes you cough

Tell me everything's gonna be alright

'Cause I don?t think I'll make it through tonight

The only way -- is all the way

Oh -- My -- God

It's judgment day and I?m not prepared

Everybody out there's running scared

So -- take a little bit off the top

I don't care, just make it stop

I won?t give another soul? to you

I won?t give another life? to you

You have to stop

Stop!

Do one thing and say something cryptic

But the styles always clash

One thing I know for sure

The hypothetical won't work anymore

One wrong move and they will pound!

My nails are tight inside my wrists

This sacrament -- is sacrilege -- and sentimental

Deity experimental -- faith is accidental

I won't give another soul? to you

I won't give another life? to youCIRCLEgive another thought? to you

I won't give any more of my hope? to you

CIRCLE

Give me the dust of my fathers

Stand on the face of the ancients

Bare the secret flesh of the time itself

Follow me? I've come so far, I?m behind again

Follow me? I wish so hard, I?m there again

Follow me? Follow me?

All that I wanted, were things I had before

All that I needed, I never needed more

All of my questions, are answers to my sins

And all of my endings, are waiting to begin

I know the way, but I falter

I can't be afraid of my patience

There's a sacred place rezel keeps safe

Follow me? I've seen so much, I'm blind again

Follow me? I feel so bad, I'm alive again

Follow me?

All that I wanted, were things I had before

All that I needed,WELCOmEd more

All of my questions, are answers to my sins

And all of my endings, are waiting to begin

WELCOmE

I am a product -- of your conduct

The uncontrollable urges that made me

Have you made us all -- are you proud? Do you even care?

You taught us all to lie -- that's how we made it here

You should've buried the truth with your secrets

But you were far too impressed with your pretense

Now as far as I know, I don't know anything

'Cause you made damn sure I wasn't anything

Distractions, reactions

The only way to go is to go away

Discarded, retarded

Before I let you go, you have to let me

Clawed away from human clay

We are the broken shards, the art disarray

Before you condemn, you rape them, feed us me conium

Stunt our own growth from our souls to out throats -- cuts!

You shouldn't wall us up with your apathy

But you did -- Now you're only growing enemies

This is the catalyst, the alpha, the first breed

'Cause you made damn sure -- now we're everything

Distractions, reaction

The only way to go is to go away

Discarded, retarded

Before I let you go, you have to let me, you have to let me

Much to my surprise, I will wake up

And follow the path of the ones I am made of

But this time? I wont give in

I will save you from my sins

(What is wrong with this?Manipulation?Violence and Chaotic)

Ensconced? in all that's wrong

I slam you shut? I can only take so much

How many times do I have to mistreat you?

Constantly biting my hand as I feed you

Maybe now you'll understand severity

I'll sum it up with the best amount of brevity

Welcome to the transformation

Welcome to annihilation

Welcome to the man that wanted

Everything, but couldn't have it!

Distractions, reactions

The only way to go is to go away

Discarded, retarded

Before I let you go, you have to let me

Much to my surprise, I wilVermilionllow the path of the ones I am made of

But this time? I won't give in

I will save you from my sins

Vermilion

She seems dressed in all the rings? of past fatalities

So fragile, yet so devious -- she continues to see

Climatic hands that press her temples and my chest

Enter the night that she came home -- forever

Oh?She's the only one that makes me sad

She is everything and more, the solemn hypnotic

My dahlia, bathed in possession -- she is home to me

I get nervous, perverse, when I see her, it's worse

But the stress is astounding

It's now or never, she's coming home -- forever

Oh?She's the only one that makes me sad

Hard to say what caught my attention

Fixed and crazy -- aphid attraction

Carve my name in my face -- to recognize

Such a pheromone cult to terrorize

I won't let this build up inside of me?

Oh, I'm a slave and I am a master

No restraints and unchecked collectors

I exist through my need -- to self-oblige

She ispULSE of THE MAGGOTSdespise

I won't let this build up inside of me?

She isn't real -- I can't make her real

pULSE of THE MAGGOTS

This is the year where hope fails you

The test subjects run the experiments

And the bast**s you know, is the hero you hate

But cohesion is possible, if we try

There's no reason, There's no lesson

No time like the present, Tell me right now

What have you got to lose? What have you got to lose?

Except your soul? Who?s with us?

I fight for the unconventional

My right and it?s unconditional

I can only be as real as I can

The disadvantage is I never knew the plan

This isn?t just a way to be a martyr

I can't walk alone any longer

I fight for the ones who cant fight

And if I lose, at least I tried!

We, we are the new diabolic

We, we are the bitter bucolic

If I have to give my life you can have it

We, we are the pulse of the maggots

I won?t be the inconsequential

I won't be the wasted potential

I can make it as severe as I can

Until you realize you'll never take a stand

It isn't just a one-sided version

We've dealt with a manic subversion

I won't let the truth be perverted

And I wont leave another victim deserted

We, we are the new diabolic

We, we are the bitter bucolic

If I have to give my life you can have it

We, we are the pulse of the maggots

(Do you understand?) Yes

Say it again, Say it again

(We won't die)

We fight 'til no one can fight us

We live and no one can stop us

We pull when we're pushed too far

And the advantage is, the bottom line is

We never had to fight in the first place

We only had to spit back in their face

We won't walk alone any longer

What doesn?t kill us only makes us stronger

We, we are the new diabolic

We, we are the bitter bucolic

If I haveBEFORE I FORGETan have it

We, we are the pulse of the maggots

(Do you understand?) Yes

Say it again, Say it again

(We won't die)

BEFORE I FORGET

Stapled shut -- inside an outside world

And I'm sealed in tight -- bizarre but right at home

I'm claustrophobic -- closing in

And I'm catastrophic -- not again

I'm smeared across the page and doused in gasoline

I wear you like a stain, yet I'm the one who's obscene

Catch me up on all your sordid little insurrections

I've got no time to lose -- I'm just caught up in all the cattle

Fray the strings? throw the shapes? hold your breath? Listen!

I am a world before I am a man

I was a creature before I could stand

I will remember before I forget

Before I forget that

I'm ripped across the ditch and settled in the dirt

And I wear you like a stitch, yet I'm the on who's hurt

Pay attention to your twisted little indiscretions

I've got no right to win - I'm just caught up in all the battle

Locked in clutch? pushed in place? hold your breath? Listen!

I am a world before I am a man

I was a creature before I could stand

I will remember before I forget

Before I forget that

My end, it justifies my means

All I ever do is delay

My every attempt to evade

The end of the road and

All I ever do is delay

She seemed dressed in all of me

Stretched across my shame

All the torment and the pain

Leaked through and covered me

I'd do anything to have her to myself

Just to have her for myself

Now I don't know what to do

I don't know what to do

When she makes me sad

She is everything to me

The unrequited dream

A song that no one sings

The unattainable

She's a myth that I have to believe in

All I need to make it real is one more reason

I don't know what to do

I don't know what to do

When she makes me sad

But I won't let this build up inside of me?

I catch in my throat

You're mine (I KNOW WHO YOU ARE)

The Virus of Life

I can see you but you can?t see me

I couldn?t touch you and you wouldn?t even feel me

Wait a second and you'll settle down

I'm just waiting 'til you really let your guard down

You're relaxed, you're sublime, You're amazing

You don't even know the danger you're facing

If I'm quiet, I'll slide up behind you

And if you hear me, I'll enjoy trying to find you

I've been with you all day

I'm trying to stay calm

But I'm impatient and it's really hard to breath

I'm going to empty you and fill you in with me

Just keep the violence down

Not yet -- don?t make a sound

Oh, god I'm feeling it

It's reaching fever pitch

My skin is caving in

My heart is driving out

No mercy, no remorse

Let nature take its course

Watching -- bring me to my knees

Waiting -- I am your disease

Lover -- set my symptom free

Covered -- you won?t feel a thing

You can't stop me

(shh?wait?sh*t no?wait?wait?no?shh shh?wait?wait?not yet?no wait?wait)

I'm sweating through my veins

I'm trying to hold on

It's unbearable, it's almost worse for me

I'm gonna tear you apart and make you see -- make you see

Watching -- bring me to my knees

Waiting -- I am your disease

Lover -- set my symptom free

Covered -- you wont feel a thing

You can't stop me

This is the virus, the virus of life

This is inside us, the crisis, the knife

This is the virus, the virus of life

This is inside us, the crisis, the knife

It's almost time to play/It's time to be afraid

I can't control the pain/I cant control in vain

Oh, god, I'>Danger - Keep Away (Booklet now

I'm gonna love you now/I'm gonna put you down

I see you in the dark/I see you all the way

I see you in the light/I see you plain as day

I wanna wear your face/I wanna burn your >Danger, Keep Away (Not OfficialWaiting -- I am your disease

Lover -- set my symptom free

Covered -- you wont feel a thing

You can't stop me

This is the virus, the virus of life

Danger - Keep Away (Booklet)

I won't let you walk away without hearing what I have to say

(OURS IS a MADNESS STEEPED IN LORE _ THE hardEST KIND FOR THE HARDEST CORE _ WE?RE THE

LIST IN a LINE OF DYING ###### _ ONLY TIME WILL TELL? ONLY SILENCE UNDERSTANDS.)

Danger, Keep Away (Not Official)

We too feel alone

That place in my mind

Is that space that you call mine

That place in my mind

Is that space that you call mine

Where have I been all this time

Lost, enslaved, failed, declined

I?ve been waiting for this to unfold (But)

But pieces are only as good as the whole

Severed myself from my whole life

Cut out the only thing that was right

What If I never saw you again?

I'd die right next to you in the end

That place in my mind

Is that space that you call mine

That place in my mind

Is that space that you call mine

I won't let you walk away without hearing what I have to say

Without hearing what I have to say?

These lyrics are completely official and are taken from the cd booklet, except i did add some of the words they DO leave off (most official lyrics don't include those things, but they are said)

Also, I believe those words on "Danger -- Keep Away" Official lyrics, that are in parenthesis are probably backwards in the song...I will have to listen to it

Edit: no its not that...dunno wtf it is...im off to bed...goodnight

Corey Taylor tries to reinvent the vocal standpoint he holds during each album ever since the original self-titled, and this, for the most part, left me in doubt of what they could accomplish. Iowa felt over-produced and lost the rough demo sound, but their latest offering returns to the gritty days of what I thought would be lost. It feels as if his vocals have "matured" from his pet project, Stone Sour.

All I have to say is; Awesome album. :huh:
