Didn't they JUST get done announcing that they were cancelling these very dates? Are they f***ing stupid? Or is this just some severely ill-timed old news that didn't get recalled?

No, they've cancelled all dates for the next 6 weeks or so which includes their appearances at the Reading & Leeds Festival (which I'm annually sick of bloody hearing about) but these aren't 'til December

i'm so sick of hearing news about slipknot. they don't make groundbreaking music, so why do we have to hear about every little thing the band does.

np: Carpathian Forest- Pierced Genetalia

A friend of mine said that the album's pretty good but they made a mistaking choosing the single and releasing the title track as they're the worst on the album.

Anyways, I know alot of people who've been waiting for this news so I thought I'd best report it :)

!st off good call.... RIP Dimebag. 2nd i have listened to the whole album now and overall its pretty solid. I mean like i said before im not floored by it , however i am happy with it. i have been waiting for this album to come out for a while i am a Maggot and i do like the album , the only thing i have to say is i kinda of expected the album to be exactly how it is, not to say its predictable but its definately slipknot wich is a good thing i suppose, just definately the same sort of sound as volume 3 id have to say. the remix of vermillion is sic!
