You'z CHA-ROLLLIINNNN!Choose a Username said:Ok then, please explain to me what you consider musical genious?
Lady GaGa? JLS? Lil Wayne? What?
Not all genius has to be from rock/metal/whatever genre they are, some of the best lyrics i've heard have been in rap/hip hop, i've also heard great rappers collaborating with rock musicians and its been awesome but its the general closed-mindedness that dumbfounds me, the mentality that if you don't like Slipknot you must like whatever craps being pumped out on the radio at the moment pisses me offChoose a Username said:Ok I'm going to level with you, I have never even heard of them, so yeah they must be awesome!Novskij said:King Crimson.Choose a Username said:Ok then, please explain to me what you consider musical genious?

EDIT: Gorguts,Neurosis,Cynic.
Not to say that whatever I haven't heard of isn't good.
My idea of genious would be Matt Bellamy, Tim Mcilrath, Corey Taylor and Mike Shinoda most of all!

QFT, although my gateway bands were far more embarrassing - Linkin Park and Limp Bizkit were where it was at. Don't worry, I've moved on.trog08 said:I always found them to be a sort of gateway band. You listen to them when your in your early to mid teens then move onto ther stuff from there. I listened to them when I was younger then my tastes sorta evolved to what it is now.
That describes my experiences in listening to Slipknot. I didn't like their self titled album or All Hope Is Gone. I used to listen to them all the time,but I've moved on to other bands. Every once in a while I'll listen to Subliminal Verses; otherwise I don't really isten to them much anymore.trog08 said:I always found them to be a sort of gateway band.
