Written by Sepulchre on 25.05.2010 at 02:35 I think its hard to distance Slipknot from metal, imo they fit under the broad category of "metal" well, unless your definition of it is slightly more narrow. It'd be hard to exclude them from it tbh.

Written by [user id=4365] on 25.05.2010 at 03:05 Its just that a year ago this site did not include shit music like nu-metal, metalcore etc. And now-a-days all i see are bands being added like, trivium, killswitch engage, sliptknot, etc. Its just kind of annoying since the reason i like this site is it tried to avoid adding bands like these.
