Agreed. Iowa did so much damage to his voice, it's a miracle he gets any sort of growl or scream out now. It’s wild he’s getting his screams back as he ages. Vol 3 was a straight up shout AHIG was a little better but still quite shouty .5 got the screams coming back WANYK seems to be as close to his old style as he’s been in like 15 years.

Did he have vocal chord surgery? I know he had neck surgery and he's headbanging again. Maybe not the wisest decision lol

New Toxic Holocaust. Sounds like Toxic Holocaust. Approved. Didn't really care for the last two. Wonder if it will better now that it's back to being a solo project.

That’s a very unfortunate acronym for the new album

Yeah, the new Slipknot is Slipknot. It’s good. Probably on par with the last one but not as good as self-titled or Vol. 3. I’ve never gotten into Iowa. Corey Taylor isn’t a very good singer or lyricist. He’s the weak link even in the best songs. The ballads are all horrendous. But their ballads are always bad. I can’t them seriously because they’re still the band that wears Halloween masks, have two members who play garbage cans and had the one guy jerking his nose off. A lot of the later songs really reminded me of Mushroomhead.

No joke. The new Slipknot is pretty damn amazing and I'm only 6 tracks in.

But that opening stretch is so so so good! Didn't initially like Unsainted, but it grew on me. This is a damn great album, though. Solway Firth is a great closer. My Pain is a pretty trippy song... Gonna give it another spin later. But this is a surprise top AOTY contender for me at this point.

Continuing the Slipknot talk, I saw them last Wednesday and they are still amazing live. The best show I've seen from them since the first time in 01.
Gojira was awesome and I was hoping they'd be the main support instead of Volbeat and get more time, but oh well.
I'm not a fan of Behemoth, but they sounded great and put on a hell of a show.
