      @CP4884 5 лет назад +134

      Touring, merch, and royalties from album sales is where bands make their money, and believe me...they made A LOT of money. So does the record label, but the record label is also taking a gamble with their money. There are a lot of bands that just go nowhere for any number of reasons. It's for this reason that so much trash music sounds exactly the same. Because record labels don't want to gamble, they just sell people the same shit they've been eating for years and they love it. They even try to get bands to try to gravitate towards the sounds that produce money. Which is why you see so many bands start out sounding fuckin awesome, then eventually sound like absolute overproduced radio rock trash.
      Stars are no longer discovered, they're crafted. And they all play in the tune of $100 bills.

      I have so many friends who have been sexually abused. Almost like 50% of my friends. I have some trauma too so with people like that you just automatically click. You have an innate understanding of each other’s pain that’s hard to find with “normal” people. I’ve seen that sort of abuse absolutely destroy people. One of my friends that dealt with it died by suicide. Another hit rock bottom with drug use. It’s dark and has such a lasting effect. Trauma hits you so deep especially when it starts when you’re so young. I can’t blame my friends or anyone else for how they choose to deal with the pain they’re drowning in. Much love to anyone that reads this and is in a similar place. You’re not alone ❤

Now I know he just didn't want to be around all of his bandmates. I did notice most everyone....keep in mind with 9 members it's difficult to keep track.... isolated themselves like primadonnas.

      Yeah but when the narrator quotes him he says it almost in a mocking voice 😆

      MagOne but Mick nuts already. Just a couple years back he and his brother got in a fight and Mick ended up getting stabbed in the back of the head. He didn’t press charges saying something along the lines of “that’s how we are together” lol

    Man it's crazy, whenever I'm watching interviews/videos of Corey nowadays I always have to remind myself myself he's almost 50 and I didn't know this until recently but he also has a son that's only 5 years younger than me. There's a few videos of him bringing his son on stage at some Stone Sour shows to sing with him and I have to imagine that's probably a pretty god damn cool feeling for Corey to share a stage with his own son. One of those really awesome "Full circle" moments in life going from having a baby boy almost 20 years ago to now having him on stage with you singing your songs with you.

    This guy definitely shouldn't be doing voice-overs as a job...or maybe it's the writing..

    I'm only halfway through this video. But I want to thank you, Rock Feed, for making this video about Slipknot's history. This video has given me a new and deep respect for the band. I listened to their _Slipknot,_ and _Iowa_ albums in high school and loved the hell out of them. But then i ventured onto other bands and kinda stopped listening to Slipknot so much. Now, I'll start listening to them way more, with a new interest and passion. Thanks so much, Rock Feed...... 🤘
    RIP, Paul Gray. :( 🥀
