I heard they were supposed to play Left Behind because it was a bit more "radio friendly", surely this pissed the band off, so they went with the most badass comeback they could do with this song. No s**ts given.
No Dipshit. Im sorry as it clearly hurt your feelings. But Nu-Metal is not a form of metal and its not true metal. Its the same genre as limp bizkit and pappa roach, and its made only to sell. Thats why all the nu metal bands are sellouts, just like slipknot who went from being hard to singing melodic progressive pussy rock. Its not me who says it, its the whole real metal culture. They shun Nu metal bands. I like slipknot, but i dont care facing the reality.
In all honesty, I like Slipknot but even just watching this now that's how I was feeling. It's so jarring and unnatural to see them here in such a conventional setting.
@@gonedeep43 I'm sure they did because not long after this aired the whole world change on 9/11. And we unleashed hell on them with a generation of warfighters who listened to this kind of shit to relax LMAO! GET FUCKED AND GET SOME! 🤘

are we gonna ignore the fact that he dodged the curse words perfectly and never missed a step? I've never been so impressed with someone avoiding censorship.
Only with Conan, he is a pretty big metalhead himself, and since it is his show, he has a lot of say on who comes on. I can respect him for that, since Iowa wasn't a very radio friendly album
Did you hear a single swear word? This song was purposely designed as the only acceptable easily self-censorable album single, while simultaneously being a big middle finger and fuck you to the record and media industry. It was the exception by design.
Nonesense, the 2002 London disasterpieces show is an even better performance than the studio version, you can check out the whole show on RUclips it's a hell of a show
They have always sounded that much better the more pissed off they got!!! After the release of their most recent single... Its very clear to me that slipknot is once again pissed off, and they are going to make their best album yet. That's a hard thing to comprehend, I know I know.... But I never thought I would hear that Iowa sound ever again!!!! This is one maggot that is once again excited to hear what they come out with next!!
Nah, Conan fucking loved it. Look at the end, even goes up and whispers to Jim “great job” or something along those lines after the audiences attention is gone and the cameras are panning away
I remember this melting the face off of my dad who was 62 at the time. He said "I dont like it, and I dont know if it's music, but it's very impressive." But I could tell he liked it, even though he would never admit it.
i would honestly pay 10 dollars to see conans face during that whole performance. i fucking love slipknot but i think conan is one of the funniest people alive.
Gregory Brabander the only reason it's something other than what you are speaking of is that it's a 9 piece metal band that started an entire new wave of music watching people head bang in unison is dumb as shit to me but when you create a new sound with that many people and make it to a show like that it's amazing to watch the first of a kind in music to any band zeppelin Metallica they all had these shows as the pioneers of a music genre that's the reason why that's great it's 9 people making history right there for the music they created
shut the fuck up, please!, no one cares about your elitist "true metal" shit. If you're not gonna change your perspective then consider nu-metal and all the other sub-genres as other type of metal, not true original metal, just let people love their happy lives and don't bother them, ty.
damn, nu-metal is like 25 years old and people still think it's some stuff for kids. Cmon, those kids have already kids of their own) How old are you critics, 70?
I remember that night well, roadrunners site said they were going to play "Left Behind" cause it was the single at the time then they boldly said fuck it were doin the Heretic Anthem. \m/
Wow 157 likes nice to see that. Anybody doubts its true you know damn well Heretic was not a single. These boys had a chance and they took it and the payoff shows in the performance.
Craig plays half of the samples of every song as well as sid, lmfao. they play a important role in the inside elements of a song that can't be interpreted in physical form.
My favorite song of theirs. This song is timeless and becomes more and more relevant every day. Also, interestingly, this Conan version is probably my favorite live version of this song. I love the way it sounds.
Couldn’t agree more I like all the songs of them but this ones so catchy I can sing it all day it don’t get old!!! That kinda song same with (sic) surfacing before I forget
They were on Conan when Max Weinberg was still Conan's house band leader. Many years later, Max Weinberg's son becomes their new drummer after Joey Jordison left.
@@danharford6748 more like 12.30am-ish. Conan had "Late Night" then, which was the show after Leno's "Tonight Show" 11.35pm timeslot. So not as substantial an audience but still pretty damn impressive considering they were on network tv.
The Slipknot Disasterpiece Dvd is the best concert EVER recorded. They just captured that violence, hate, and aggression so well. I don't think there is any other band that will ever top Slipknots self titled, and Iowa album.
In attitude and aggression it's really hard to top. But the music itself it's debatable, there are plenty of satanic death metal /black metal bands that sound darker and heavier.
So we have Slipknot here tonight, everybody! And before you start, could you guys please elaborate on your role in the band? 1: - "Sure, I play drums" 8: - "I sing" 7: - "I play guitar" 4: - "Also guitar here" 2: - "I play the bass" 0: - "I'll do the intro" 3: - "I headbang and occasionally yell 'six'" 6: - "Another headbanger here" 5: - "Well uh.."
This is their best performance ever in my opinion, They where at the height of their popularity and hated one another, plus this was right before they all started making money so that hunger in there was added, plus this puts to rest their use of lights, fog and other live special efx, as a crutch, just them their instruments and a audience that was 30 feet away.
Right? thats what makes this performance so special. i would watch this over and over and over again. i had a vhs tape just filles with music acts from Conan and snl from 96-2001. i had so many good performances.
Thanks for the great feedback everybody! Never thought I'd get this many views and comments! It's cool to see how nostalgic this video is to this many people... I can't believe some of you guys recorded the original airing on VHS! Anyway Stay (Sic) \m/
thrashtroids- I remember the night this aired, i was a 20yr old insomniac watching Conan at 1am, I'm getting old lol. This was/is the best tv show band performance I've ever seen, I never thought I'd get to see it again, AWESOME!
Sorry man, seen them 5 times from 04 on and tool 6 times from 06 on, Slipknot couldn't pack Tools lunch live or in studio. They are good, but no where near the best
It’s crazy how this performance sounds really close to the record version. Every other one I’ve ever listened to Corey sounds like he’s outta breath or winded. Can’t blame him though. Knot4life
I fucking love that they came back on the show after this. I mean...of all the songs they could have played, this is probably the one that caused the most freakouts. I think the people can deal with a lot (the swearing, the rudeness, whatever) but God forbid you mention the number 666. Ahahaha. This is gold.
I think I remember watching this performance on TV. This was also the same year that some friends and I attended the FMX Firecracker Five in Lubbock, Texas. Slipknot, Linkin Park, Mudvayne, Papa Roach and Disturbed all put on one hell of a show.
Definitely my fav live performance, back on 01 i was 13 and I remember that I was literally jumping and screaming and my Mom was yelling me Stop!! Stop!! , wow i literally just cried and couldn´t finish posting this. Thank you Joey Jordison for all these great moments, you will be remembered as a True Legend #1.
I'll tell you what playing a song that razor sharp whilst going as fucking nuts as they do on stage is a stupidly underrated talent, I've tried so many times to play their songs on both guitar and bass whilst headbanging as hard as they did back in the day and I have no clue how they did whilst sounding so fucking good live
Conan will always be the shit for putting metal bands on his show and ACTUALLY letting them play the HEAVY songs!!! 🤘
Slipknot just confirmed there gonna be performing on Jimmy Kimmel Live May 17th 🤘

Look at Mick before back issues. My man use to go all the way down headbanging
iPenzel his surgery helped him a lot tho so he can still somewhat headbang just not all the way

He got a little (sic) on his fingers
Probably sweat.
Maybe caught his nail on the string/fret, happens sometimes and it hurts
As a guitarist it’s probably some strain on the fretting hand. Similar to when you’re writing for ages and your hand needs a break.

In attitude and aggression it's really hard to top. But the music itself it's debatable, there are plenty of satanic death metal /black metal bands that sound darker and heavier.
And Corey's voice in that DVD... Pfffff, pure gold!
Happy Gilmore accomplished that feat no more than an hour ago.
I have to leave a comment so there'll be 66 likes and 6 comments.
at least once a month i come back here to see this outstanding performance. it's hard to see a band with this tightness and with this energy
So we have Slipknot here tonight, everybody! And before you start, could you guys please elaborate on your role in the band?
1: - "Sure, I play drums"
8: - "I sing"
7: - "I play guitar"
4: - "Also guitar here"
2: - "I play the bass"
0: - "I'll do the intro"
3: - "I headbang and occasionally yell 'six'"
6: - "Another headbanger here"
5: - "Well uh.."
GehennaNL number 5 is craig right?
GehennaNL 8: - "I scream"
5: .......
Wait, Sid does the intro?
leandromgitjb Glad that somebody else noticed that, lol.
This is their best performance ever in my opinion, They where at the height of their popularity and hated one another, plus this was right before they all started making money so that hunger in there was added, plus this puts to rest their use of lights, fog and other live special efx, as a crutch, just them their instruments and a audience that was 30 feet away.
People=shit in Tokyo during the Iowa period is my favorite performance.
oh man hell yeah thats up there in my favs too! rock on!
Right? thats what makes this performance so special. i would watch this over and over and over again.
i had a vhs tape just filles with music acts from Conan and snl from 96-2001.
i had so many good performances.
Why did they hate each other
+ACE Music not even close dude! Thus is the best bar none
00:32 You know you're dead when Corey and Mick look at you that way.
Thanks for the great feedback everybody! Never thought I'd get this many views and comments! It's cool to see how nostalgic this video is to this many people... I can't believe some of you guys recorded the original airing on VHS! Anyway Stay (Sic) \m/
thrashtroids word 114k views. blew up.
Thank you for bring us this killer stuff
thrashtroids- I remember the night this aired, i was a 20yr old insomniac watching Conan at 1am, I'm getting old lol. This was/is the best tv show band performance I've ever seen, I never thought I'd get to see it again, AWESOME!
I had it recorded on a VHS tape for years
2:13 that image is insane.
Sarah so much head banging 🤘
Ruthless check out 3:13
Perfect GIF
Junior Buckethead reigns supreme
Redeem team status
🤘😃🤘
I can’t stop coming back to this video
Why must we grow old????? Still hands down the best band ever live and studio!! A Scary Metal Machine!!!!!
Sorry man, seen them 5 times from 04 on and tool 6 times from 06 on, Slipknot couldn't pack Tools lunch live or in studio. They are good, but no where near the best
It’s crazy how this performance sounds really close to the record version. Every other one I’ve ever listened to Corey sounds like he’s outta breath or winded. Can’t blame him though. Knot4life
I just fucking love the energy of this performance. unbelievable
03:44
Am I the only one finding that Clown and Sid/0 moment utterly endearing and unexpected?
Clown played a pretty integral part to Sid getting accepted into the band. In other words, Sid headbutted Clown and knocked him on his ass.
I fucking love that they came back on the show after this. I mean...of all the songs they could have played, this is probably the one that caused the most freakouts. I think the people can deal with a lot (the swearing, the rudeness, whatever) but God forbid you mention the number 666. Ahahaha. This is gold.
EndingsAreHard Corey dodged all the swears
These guys are performing like it's their last day on Earth. Too damn good.
Best comment
i'm surprised this happened
Matt Johnson censorship ;)
0:31
Corey: "Get the fuck outta my way mick"
Mick: "The fuck did you just do to me?"
hahahahahaha
it's very funny how he stares at the camera then the verse jumps in and goes into beastly headbanging
HAHAHA
This comment made me fucking snort dude 😂😂😂
I really like that they are on a smaller sized set it brings em all closer and makes tHe bands energy even more intense imo. Rad
I remember watching this, when Conan introduced them he said "up next is the loudest band we've ever had on late night with Conan O'Brien!" ROFL
this is my childhood
I think I remember watching this performance on TV.
This was also the same year that some friends and I attended the FMX Firecracker Five in Lubbock, Texas. Slipknot, Linkin Park, Mudvayne, Papa Roach and Disturbed all put on one hell of a show.
"Guarun - teed to snap" Lololol censorship.
You're full of it
this might be my favorite slipknot vid ever.
Definitely my fav live performance, back on 01 i was 13 and I remember that I was literally jumping and screaming and my Mom was yelling me Stop!! Stop!! , wow i literally just cried and couldn´t finish posting this.
Thank you Joey Jordison for all these great moments, you will be remembered as a True Legend #1.
I'll tell you what playing a song that razor sharp whilst going as fucking nuts as they do on stage is a stupidly underrated talent, I've tried so many times to play their songs on both guitar and bass whilst headbanging as hard as they did back in the day and I have no clue how they did whilst sounding so fucking good live
there’s your magic answer to why several of them had neck / back surgeries
They actually mixed them very well for a TV show. Really fucking good performance! \m/
Marko Zivanovic This was a band in its prime. Even dogshit sound engineering wouldn't have ruined the performance.
Alan Heyes yes.. but like I said, they mixed them pretty well on this one.
@@alanheyes694 I assumed he meant vision mixing tbh. I thought the studio crew did well on both counts.
Actually, it seemed like the director didn't know which musician to focus on.
@@wcsxwcsx the Director doesn't mix the Audio, he directs/and or edits the Video. Actually. Ffs.
Imagine being 10 and being told that you would join THIS band in your adult years.
I like how in one shot of this video Corey is gasping for breath and that just shows how much he cares for this band! This is at 3:05
My man used to scream as hard as he could, no diaphragm or anything, just pure rage
@@Safetysweet yes :)
Man seeing this again after so many years brings back memories. What a fun time it’s been being a slipknot fan.
RIP #1... you legend
Always amazing to me to see music like this played live on a popular tv show. It’s just pop and backpack kids now. Man the good old days haha
Everyone after this performance in the crowd was looking for hearing aids!! Also the the restraint at 0:47 was impressive!!
They would never put this on TV today :/
Just did buddy
Slipknot was just on Kimmel lol
Jimmy kimm tho 👀🤘
The shot at 3:13 gives me chills every time
me too bro, me too... this is the first Slipknot video i saw...still have goosebumps
Craigs sampler is not even plugged into anything.
