It is a great unique noise, very definate slipknot.

As crazy as their video is, this songs is actually quite accessible to a new metal listener, which is what makes it a classic. The vocals are clean and understandable, and the rhythm is dope.

Fun fact: The original song was written to be more bassy, more guttoral, and chunky. It was Rick Rubin that cleaned it up and stripped it down- one of the many reasons Slipknot refuses to ever work with him again.

@@SonOfNone I didnt know about that, thats unfortunate. Its definatly their decision to not work with him again but like or hate the song it was probably way better for slipknots career it came out how it did. Its like the original poster said its where A LOT of new metal listeners start, its where I started in metal, literally with this song an a few other of what people say are "pop" slipknot songs. Eventually it lead me deeper an into crazier stuff, bridging the gap in music isnt always bad, it would have been bad if slipknot had changed everything they did but they didnt, thats my opinion

One of my favourite classical pieces ever. Duality is cool too.

I like to imagine that both of these guys just tolerate the other's musical tastes

Erik Satie is one of my favorites. Duality is a banger too

Tbh Judson can play what he likes in the way he wishes cos it's always enjoyable!

The second guitar in the verse that plays that opposing riff is such a cool effect. It's right on the edge of being out of tune from the rest but it works somehow. Slipknot is well known for doing that with the 2 guitars. Almost like the opposite of a harmony. Really interesting stuff

been watching all the videos from this series. love it too much! s/o from Brazil! keep rocking.

Hooray!! Finally released from KZread jail!! 🤘🏻💥🔥🙏🏻 Enjoyed the intro. Thanks for naming the song because it was driving me nuts just waking up I couldn’t place the title. You guys rock 🤘🏻💥🔥🙏🏻

Beautiful intro by Judson! And I totally understand you here, talking about the grace note: you add more subtle spaciality. Gives it a light breeze of air in between the notes. It is more calming and soothes the song. Duality is a great choice, because we know that Judson does not really enjoy the 'gutteral stuff' and he likes a little melody to it :D This song proves that Corey Taylor is a very diverse singer. The almost drone alike conversing with us through the lyrics of the verses and then on the chorus he screams his lungs out beautifully, like his heart is always bleeding. And you are so right Richard: Corey really got angry with the critics condemning Slipknot for being more of a freak act than an actual lyrically strong band that will endure the first 'hype'. O, and Vermillion pt. 2 is indeed one of their greatest songs. Psychosocial also being a personal favorite of mine. Thanks guys! Keep up the great work!

Great reaction! loved it!

Slipknot was 1 of the best concerts I've ever seen. With everything happening on stage, might be hard for Judson to keep track of it all. 🤘😄🤘

One of my favorite piano pieces! Interesting take on it lol!

Just found your channel and subbed. I love how you play a song on the piano as your intro.

I could watch non-metal fan not knowing how to headband all day XD But for real, love the reaction. Always fun to see someone who can acknowledge talent even if it's not your style.

Volume 3 is Slipknot's best album. Probably one of the best f l o w i n g albums in the history of rock. hard to believe this song is 20 years old. I'm old.

Richard, your tee collection is god like m8, congrats and standing ovation 👏

Really appreciated the Gymnopedies intro I'd say Satie is and was a great pool of inspirstion for metal riff and composition. Maybe not intentionally for most but you can definetly hear the same note progressions and choices in a lot of darker genres, that's just my impression ofc, am probably wrong and biased because of my love of Satie's work.

Drivin em mad with the slipknot stuff! 😂 awesome

Holy uploads, Batman! Thank you Richard for (re?)-introducing nu-metal to Judson. Look forward to many more reactions.

Psychosocial is probably the best song to show people because it's heavy yet still catchy af. The verse riff and pounding drums are constantly stuck in my head.

These videos are great, just subscribed! You mentioned potentially covering songs from Iowa-I would love to see that! It’s my favorite Slipknot album.

something I heard a very long time ago that's stuck with me was a study done on personality types compared to musical preference an it was discovered metal listeners an classical listeners had more in common than with any other pairing.

I stumbled upon this channel, I love this band'! Here's the thing, I'm following y'all because you are a vibe! Regarding this song, it's a brilliant song both musically and lyrically.

Heck yeah another slipknot vid

Every single time I see people react to this song it gets really obvious that they are being insanely stimulated in the best way possible.

Satie! Love it

i believe Vol 3. was the first album of Slipknot that was sold in Walmart I had to to go to the Mall for the first two

Radio version sounds imperfect. It seems I've never heard it before, and listening to it made me to go for another run of album version right away :D

Underneath the noise, they really do some really Nice song writing. Live they are a bomb.

Aw yes miss you Paul and Joey!

Fun fact about Satie: he was the first composer to come up with the idea of Muzak, an idea he described like “music so plain and unremarkable and is constantly around you such that you don’t really hear it” or something LOL. Beyond his beautiful piano music he was a avant-garde af.

Great song

I don’t believe I’ve seen any NIN on your channel yet. Might be a cool artist to dig into with Trent Reznor’s recent domination of the film score realm.

That opening song on Piano reminded me a lot of In Bruges.

I think this was the first slipknot song that I liked

When I heard the intro, Takeshi Kitano immediately popped up in my head, him limping with a poker face 😅

The music video of Duality was actually 1 of the main reasons why I wanted to pursue to play drums as well. And now 14 years later, I've gradually built my empire from learning the 5 main instruments of a classic rock ensemble over time. And have explored & learned so many genres & playstyles. And also am very interested in writing classical symphonic scores for horror or other ambient cinematographic pairing. It's still so surreal to me, how impactful a single music video on MTV can be for a child, in wanting to dedicate his entire life to music. Thank you Slipknot Im forever grateful for your inspiring music. And despite their attire & aggressivenes, their message is actually very wholesome & pure. Bless you all

More slipknot please🤘

Thats the only book of coreys ive read aswell. Very good book 👌 need to do "virus of life" for this album 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘

The Devil In I (LIVE) or Custer (LIVE) Are good ones to do. Excellent video and sound quality.

Я просто сижу и смеюсь с этого милого мужчины в рубашке с отвернутыми рукавами и благородной сединой😂

Try listening to Vermillion Pt.2 (Bloodstone mix) off of the album All Hope Is Gone for a piano-ish cover of vermillion.

The intro reminds me of the piano version of Tiersen's 'La Valse d'Amélie'.

just before the start, le ginopedie, grat mesures😍

Bro u gotta do BEFORE I FORGET LIVE!!!

Gutarist here: Thickness of the strings is one way to not get spagetti strings if you go low. Many also in extreme deep tunings use baritone guitars or a normal guitar with extended neck, kind of what you would do for an E-Bass that has also longer neck to hold the strings in tune.

Erik Satie and slipknot what a crossover!

Shawn and (was Chris Fehn) Michael Pfaff both do multiple percussion instruments, mainly bass and snare.

At the time corey wrote this he was suffering through cronic migranes and they only thing that would relieve the pain was pushing his thumbs against his eyes thats the meaning of the chorus lol

#greatmeasures, can you please have Judson (sp?) listen to part 1 of Vermillion and then part 2, all in the same take/video? I think he would get more out of it if he can see the juxtaposition and might help him appreciate Slipknot even more.

#greatmeasures I recommend Judson to listen to Tori Amos' "cover" of Erik Satie (from the intro) the song is called Battle of Trees. Its purely classical with Tori Amos singing. The whole album is full of classical song remakes, I really love it.

3 percussionists

i wanna see him react to something newer like unsainted with some slightly higher production value

What's the name of the song he plays at the start? I know he says it, but I couldn't figure it out.

I was a big AC/DC fanboy and couldn't get into anything heavy. As a guitarist I used to just make fun of the idea of Slipknot being simple basic bullcrap. This song and before I forget got me into these guys. Next I bought Slipknot live 9.0, after that it was over I went back and listened from the beginning. One of my favorite bands now. Now Trivium!
