GHOSTS, DRUMMERS, AND THE FIRST SLIPKNOT ALBUM
Some guy wrote in to our website email account the other day promoting his book about the paranormal and I almost lost it. No, actually I did lose it. Check out my response to him and more in the new Mail Bag. I also help an out-of-work guitarist find a job.
Another person was quite worried that perhaps Roadrunner founder Cees Wessels was no more, but Amy set that guy straight in Ask Amy. Of course there are the usual raft of proposals (sexual, romantic, and both), dumb questions, and smart questions as well.
New Slipknot artwork and a bunch of other band photos and images have been uploaded to the Fan Art section.
Mike Patton for President! Okay, Mike Patton's not on the list, but put forth your Roadrunner candidate for president in this week's poll.
The Forum this week asks: What's your favorite metal site?
And finally don't forget that we're running Tyler Connolly from Theory of a Deadman's advice column, Tell Tyler, in our Ask the Artist section. Read about bad girlfriends now.

haha.. fucking kids..
June 21, 6:47 PM
11. NICK SMITH AKA MOLOTOV SAID...
Damn right...kids...to the moron above asking about "The Thing That Should Not Be"...that song is from the Master of Puppets album.
And by the way, wow. Why am I not surprised that the Slipknot song is far and away the worst song and also the worst band on Headbangers Ball tonight?
Dunno about anyone else, but even though Porcelain Heart is a really good song, it shouldn't have been Opeth's single for the album. I would've chosen Heir Apparent. Or maybe The Lotus Eater.
June 21, 7:10 PM
12. PATRICK SAID...
good lord james...have you been living on the moon for the past 20 years?? or did you just start listening to metal yesterday....newbes....

@RRRNarNar
yeah man his wife is in there too it's great. first I also thought like what kinda video is this man I didnt expect something like this at all...but when you start thinkin with an open mind this is something that no bands does and it's dedicated to their fans!! I think it's just great they do that it's something else like what every band does these days ...it's not another live performance video... I loved the NAWWAL video more to be honest but I think this one is also very cool.
May 20, 12:39 PM
11. KEVIN SAID...
Dez has 3 sons: Tyler, Simon and Kaleb. "Tylers Song", from the album Chamber Music, was written for Tyler. Simon, age 9, recently added backing growls on DevilDriver's third album, The Last Kind Words (2007), on the song Tirades Of Truth, during the last two lines of the chorus
