      I mean the point of heavy metal is noise with some slight form of rhythm. But when you go as far as death metal it's just complete noise.

      Case in point, since their inclusion in *Stranger Things,* people have been trying to cancel *_Metallica_* for *NO* good reason, and someone has yet to provide a reason, except for they were rising in popularity again.

      Like what you like, but Slipknot is only heavy to outsiders of heavy music. In other words, its "what people think is heavy" like the video said. The fact that most Slipknot fans discover the band at the ages of 5-14 through hearing it on public radio should tell you everything about its accessibility.

    Ive said it before and ill say it again. The percussion section and bass determine the "heaviness" of the band.

Slipknot has that down to a science.

      Yes, Slayer easily beats this in terms of heaviness, but they sacrifice quality for speed and heaviness. The thing about these bands is that they produce memorable, well-made songs that aren't the exact same as every other song on the album. Even better, they evolve with each album. Slayer is still stuck where they were at the beginning (if not worse) and that's not a good thing. It's a good debut but it's unacceptable as a career.

      @@JamieSlays that's a matter of opinion. Just because the slipknot riff is faster doesn't make it any less good.

    You can take one guitar riff and play it over different drums and bass, also with different timing, and all of them them will have a different feel and sound

      Disagree.... Although their new album is good, I wouldn’t say they compose the heaviest music. I say compose, cuz so very few heavy metal artists actually WRITE music. As from what I’ve gathered being a Bassist for over 30 years.
