New Slipknot video: Psychosocial

Jul 21, 2008

What else can I say but "Damn"! Okay, I'm going back to watch this video again.

Psychosocial

(Lyrics)
I did my time, and I want out
So abusive, FATE
It doesn't cut, the soul is not so vibrant
The reckoning, the sickening
Back at you, subversion
Pseudo-sacred pyscho virgin
Go tell your classes
Go dig you grave
Then fill your mouth with all the money you have saved
Sinking in getting smaller again.
I'm done! It has begun, I'm not the only one!

And the rain will kill us all.
Throw ourselves against the wall.
But no one else can see.
The preservation of the martyr in me.

Psychosocial, Psychosocial, Psychosocial
Psychosocial, Psychosocial, Psychosocial

Oh, there are cracks in the road we lay
From when the devil fell
The secrets have gone mad?

This is nothing new
but when we kill it all
the hate was all we had
who needs another mess
We could start over
just look me in the eyes and say i'm wrong
now there's only emptiness
But I'm missing something
i think were good I'm not the only one

And the rain will kill us all.
Throw ourselves against the wall.
But no one else can see.
The preservation of the martyr in me.

Hey get that back inside,
I tried to tell you first
Your hurtful lies are giving out
Can't stop the killing, I can't help it.
Is there something psycho?
Is this what you want?
I'm not the only one!

And the rain will kill us all.
Throw ourselves against the wall.
But no one else can see.
The preservation of the martyr in me.

Cheers

#8 aka Corey Taylor of Slipknot. As a longtime fan of the band (since 1999), I've always liked the raspy vocal effect that he uses. Slipknot's style is rather extreme (which I love), the band's sound "a threshing machine devouring a military drum corps." The lyrics generally follow a very aggressive tone and are, as Rick Anderson of All Music Guide put it, "not generally quotable on a family website."The lyrics feature such themes as darkness, nihilism, anger, disaffection, and psychosis.The band features a rather typical guitar setup with a lead guitarist, rhythm guitarist, and bassist. The guitars are heavily downtuned and near death metal in tone. Unlike the vast majority of popular bands, Slipknot features two precusionists in addition to the primary drummer. The audience is basically blasted by a wall of sound as the two extra percussionists flank the drummer who holds the band together. Anyway here's "Gently" from the Disasterpieces DVD.
