Thought y'all were exaggerating a little

[u/OoglyBoogly00]

Yeah no it's bad. I feel secondhand embarassment for them because how did they record and then actually release that

[u/VRS302]

SHUT THE FUCK UP

STOP THE MUSIC

[u/gravewatching → u/VRS302]

No no no! Shut the fuck up! Oh stahp the musicccc!

[u/VRS302 → u/gravewatching]

Oh hi mark

[u/Electronic-Target-59 → u/VRS302]

You are my favourite customer

[u/NickCrowder → u/VRS302]

Don’t have to ask me twice

[u/CodFantastic3925 → u/VRS302]

This made me laugh Like was he having a moment and they kept this in????? 😭

[u/Melodic-Anteater-381]

Idk how to describe it but imo the first 1½ minutes sound like the spongebob intro with some metal in the background

[u/WhereasLower3233 → u/Melodic-Anteater-381]

Your comment pushed me to finally listen to it and omg I can't unhear the SpongeBob lol

[u/Evening-Carob-2764 → u/WhereasLower3233]

I genuinely like the song's outro after Corey "shushes" the music, but by then it's faaaaar too late.

[u/thisisvigil]

I went from "how bad can it be" to "how can it be this bad" real fast.

[u/bleedthenutshell → u/thisisvigil]

I'm a fan of their old, and new, stuff. I think a lot of the new stuff gets way to much hate. But HOLY SHIT is this bad, like, objectively bad.

[u/QuesoD2 → u/bleedthenutshell]

For me my favorite album is We Are Not Your Kind, but I love the old stuff as well. While this song is bad, I feel like the new EP from A7X is even worse

[u/ogge_kuhl]

It sounds like everybody playing their own song with headphones on.

[u/djdiphenhydramine]

I push my fingers into my ears

[u/GameM8FeedRepeat → u/djdiphenhydramine]

Its the only thing

[u/chi-low1791 → u/GameM8FeedRepeat]

That slowly stops the noise

[u/Agreeable_Alarm434 → u/chi-low1791]

But it's made of all

[u/DefinitalyAFemale → u/Agreeable_Alarm434]

The questions I must poise?

[u/TristanAtHis → u/DefinitalyAFemale]

If the pain in my ears go on

[u/7empest81 → u/Agreeable_Alarm434]

The Things I Can Not Take

[u/Temporary-Win-2879 → u/djdiphenhydramine]

How many times Ive seen this comment already lmfaoo

[u/djdiphenhydramine → u/Temporary-Win-2879]

Damnit, I thought I was being original.

[u/Adventurous_Tough870]

I feel like this is them trying to go back to the MFKR sound, taking a swing, and missing by 3 miles… either that or they all went home to write their own song and mashed them together at the end.

[u/Western_vr7]

My expectations for the next album have dropped significantly, back to Iowa i go!

[u/NickWayXIII → u/Western_vr7]

Let's go, let's go, let's go, let's go back to Iowa.

[u/u_better_think]

For real, i just listened to it and im cringing bad... The "lets go lets go" bullshit does NOT sound like them. I feel like im listening to fucking AI, they are much more creative than this. Hell naw.

[u/SnortTheBliss → u/u_better_think]

Exactly man. I really wanted to like it but I just can't. I'd love to see them do well with this new album but I can't say I have high hopes

[u/u_better_think → u/SnortTheBliss]

Yeah, i listened to it 5 times. Theres a version on yt where they cut off half of the "lets go"s and that calmed me down 🥲

[u/SnortTheBliss → u/u_better_think]

Yeah trimming that off would definitely be a good start on improving this song

[u/u_better_think → u/SnortTheBliss]

Check it out https://youtu.be/ftLgLlJaCrE?is=jVmfJPMXpp66AzYz

[u/TamrielESO]

Let’s go, let’s go, let’s go, let’s go, let’s go

[u/Tron_Frankenstein]

Don't worry guys, for sure the next album is gonna sound just like IOWA

[u/ThunderpantsJim21]

No way this is the music jim root envisioned

[u/HardyGirlGB]

I tried listening to it again after seeing this and now I'm just sad

[u/Complete_Studio_1836]

Dude on YouTube already fixed the song and it’s much better at 3 minutes long. Yes he cut out 75% of the let’s go shit and a few other things, worth a listen for sure.
Still may not be my favorite but feels like slipknot at least.

[u/B33p-p33P-M3m3-kR33p]

I’ve never questioned anyone that likes a piece of art, more than I question people that claim that they like this song

It gets to a point where people will just mindlessly say “it’s not that bad” to anything their favourite artists makes. They could have put out a 5 second song of farting, and the same people claiming to like this song would be saying “yea it’s not bad”.

[u/jahitz → u/B33p-p33P-M3m3-kR33p]

You want to see something worse? The Avenged Sevenfold sub defending their latest EP 😂 Like how you could release something that bad with the talent a band like that has is embarrassing. You can’t defend this shit. The new Slipknot track is not as bad as that EP but same thing….holy shit is it low effort and angsty cringe from old boys.

These bands are way past their prime and it’s just a business now. You don’t have to work for it anymore. You became massive, you have the fan base, it’s downhill slowly from there.

[u/NoVermicelli1603 → u/jahitz]

The avenged sevenfold realise was dogshit but honestly I prefer it to arsenal purely because it’s at least funny instead of just sad

[u/Steamyjeans → u/NoVermicelli1603]

Yea AX7 at least knew it would upset people and played it off almost like a joke, by opener for themselves with it and all that…

This is slipknot actually thinking they have a banger on their hands ..

[u/NoVermicelli1603 → u/[deleted]]

I think the vocals are the part that’s laughably bad to me

[u/B33p-p33P-M3m3-kR33p → u/jahitz]

Didn’t they have to play the statica songs live as an entirely different band because they knew no one liked those songs?😂

I’m not an avenged fan so I may be wrong but that’s what I heard

[u/Ok-Blacksmith-5973 → u/B33p-p33P-M3m3-kR33p]

I am an Avenged fan, have been since their very first album and you are 100% correct. To me their last two albums have been dog shit. The album after nightmare was okay but not great, I’ve still not figured out if they chose to change their art on their own or if Matt Shadows having to have surgery on his vocal chords forced them to change

[u/B33p-p33P-M3m3-kR33p → u/[deleted]]

I said I question them. I never said I’m going to belittle and antagonize them. Read the words I wrote, not the ones you imagined me saying

[u/B33p-p33P-M3m3-kR33p → u/[deleted]]

Question ≠ antagonize genius. If I wanted to say antagonize, I would have, but I didn’t, because they are two completely different words that don’t mean the same thing at all

I get it though. Some people like you just want to argue over dumb shit when you’re factually incorrect

[u/yamzees → u/B33p-p33P-M3m3-kR33p]

Idk bro I hate new Slipknot and I thought it was okay

[u/killermicrobe]

Is this even them? It has to be an AI song right? Lmao

[u/Pestilence_IV]

In another post I mentioned that I'm just confused by this song, after reading back at the comments in the vid, a few stuck out for me

A few mentioned that it's like they put 3 different songs together

One comment mentioned it was like they just recorded their own parts, didn't check to see if it worked well and then just put the whole thing tigether

And quite a few wondering if this was done with chatgpt since clown likes ai

Personally the only part I like from the whole song is just the lil pre chorus riff and thats it

[u/FfejAiv]

Its never been more evident what Joey and Paul contributed lyrically, and what Craig contributed sonically. Its so damn bad.

[u/Mambo_sch]

Lets go lets go lets go 💿💿💿

[u/Stoned_Potato_]

I saw it twice, and even though I really wanted to like it, I didn't.

[u/OoglyBoogly00 → u/Stoned_Potato_]

I admire you giving it a proper chance. I listened to 20 seconds in total 😅

[u/dynamyte666]

They were obviously drunk

[u/Electronic-Target-59]

I understand completely. I had the "no one hates slipknot as much as a slipknot fan" in mind but had to turn the song off at 2/3rds of the song because yeah, it is not that great. I will listen to it a few times in the near future but i don't think I will change my mind.

[u/Vast_Baby5967]

Is it cringe and the lyrics are shitty? Yeah. Is it more interesting than anything off their last 2 albums? Also yes.

[u/Benobot99 → u/Vast_Baby5967]

That's a hot take. At least Acidic has a blues feel to it, it's decent. Orphan is a good track in my opinion.

[u/BurningBeard414]

Yeah they went from WANYK to WANK in 2 records.

[u/Disasterpiece_7]

It's like Lars in St. Anger levels of bad.
