This song's playlist/staylist for me. Like you said, Dave, the hook is catchy as hell, and Jordi's (R.I.P.) drumming is on point. As a drummer myself, of course that's where my focus is.
I had a feeling you would like this one more than some of the songs off the first album, scissors comes to mind 😅. This was off vol3. By that album they’d tightened up there sound and matured quite a bit in regards to there actual song writing. Check out songs like the blister exists , three nil , vermillion. They even had a couple of acoustic tracks on that album like circle and vermillion part 2
From MTV in 2004: "On Wednesday, more than 350 Slipknot fans (lovingly called maggots) answered an open invite to appear in the video for 'Duality,' the first single from the band's third album, Vol. 3: (The Subliminal Verses). Three days after the casting call, maggots aged 16 and up spent all day destroying a small house in West Des Moines while the band performed the song over and over again. Before filming began, the crowd was told to 'go crazy,' but not to smash the place to bits. The advice went unheeded. The band's DJ, Sid Wilson, started the wrecking ball swinging by breaking the house's front window. Within minutes, maggots crashed their way through every window in the house. In their urgency to destroy, some fans forgot the motto 'safety first.' Two were slashed by shards of broken glass -- one on the leg, one on the hand -- and were treated by emergency medical personnel at the scene, a spokesperson for the band said. The chaos wasn't limited to the video shoot area. Between takes, some of the maggots got bored and decided to destroy a rented Ford Taurus [seen at 3:53] with a pair of baseball bats they snuck in. The car had been used to shuttle fans to the shoot's location. The two fans responsible for the acts of vandalism were removed by police. However, one returned later and was let back in. The house in which 'Duality' was filmed was under renovation, and the band's label agreed in advance to repair any damage. Amidst all the devastation, there were some heartwarming tales. One teenage boy from England borrowed money from his grandmother to fly in for the video, but since he's a minor, the local hotel wouldn't allow him to check in for the weekend. So Slipknot singer Corey Taylor, who found out about the stranded youth while cruising a local mall, decided to put the teen up at his place, the spokesperson said. Another kid recently had surgery, but showed up anyway with his leg in a cast. He hopped around with a pair of custom-made crutches with the 'S' from the band's logo inlaid in the wood. The 'Duality' video shoot marked the biggest film event in Des Moines since the 1994 shooting of the flick 'The Bridges of Madison County,' the label spokesperson said." www.mtv.com/news/kl7a1q/slipknots-maggots-destroy-iowa-home
i couldnt remember any of it at all , but thanks , now its my new favorite one to request lmfao ,, it really turned out better than i thought it was going to ....
You could do what Lost In Vegas does and call it a reaction/review. They use that if they’ve heard a snippet of the song or have only heard it in passing (a film for example) and never actually paid full attention to the song. I personally would still call it a reaction since you’ve heard only the chorus and never paid attention to the entire song. You’re now able to appreciate the song in its entirety. I can say it was very popular back in the day. There’s something just very catchy about it. I think it could be part of the beat pattern but also the contrast between the swelling chorus and the semi rap like part. It makes it build incredibly well and makes the chorus hit harder than it would have if the entire song was more energetic.
Duality definitely was bigger...... followed slipknot insanely in that day. Duality received more airplay, and still receives far more airplay, has appeared everywhere, throw in like 120 million more plays, at 378 million. You couldn't escape it. Before I forget was huge, but definitely not on the same scale.
It has it's highs and lows. People may not like me or what I think or say, but they will at least respect the fact that I'm honest, and they'll never accuse me of being a liar. I'm fine with that.
I like this one. Some Slipknot songs are too "chaotic" for my personal taste. This isn't one of them and I like the contacts of the spoken word/rap like verses and the sung chorus. Greetings from Germany
Love how thoroughly honest you are with your reactions man, great stuff as usual
FEELIN' YOU Eoghanclark!!! I appreciate the kind words.
Just checked its got 379 mill views now 🙌 great reaction as usual. Most honest reaction channel 😎
They cut a few spots off the song for the video to make it shorter including the ending where they play that riff with a half time feel.
This is so catchy it will be in my head until tomorrow 😂

Oh I’m so excited for this! One of my favorites from them ❤.
This is one of my favourite songs by Slipknot!

The song was in the Madden game in like 2008/2009. Back when Madden had great playlists every year.
This the song that made me love slipknot
The Alex Melton cover is incredible
Believe it or not, this is actually not even the most commercially successful song from the album that would be “before I forget” easily.
How come the Duality music video has 100 million more views on youtube then? 😂

Duality was bigger even though 'before i forget' got a grammy
@@benholton2222duality video is iconic, I was just saying before I forget is more successful due to the Grammy
Next Slipknot - The Blister Exist
Psychosocial and Snuff was commercially successful too
Next please --> Dulce Pontes - Canção do Mar ❤
Awesome video.
Great
IA representing insanity \m/
i takes me to when i was 15 lol
Sad seeing four former members in there now. The classic line up.
Humanity´s Last Breath - Earthless next,please...😎
¡Reacts to Beeswax Nirvana!
Awesome song. I think it's about Corey Taylor dealing with migraines.
Hey, what’s it like to be a Heretic?
