I'm not familiar with the Truthmedia section of SA, but I imagine (hope) it's written in the same humorous style as the rest of the site. Although this guy rips into the album, he does have some eerie "pros" for the album...

"The Pros: Frontman Ross Robinson is certainly a talented singer. His vocal stylings are reminiscient of such well-known bands as Korn and Linkin Park, seamlessly combining lilting vocal melodies with a background of anger and discontent."

*shudder*

Check it out though.

Ross Robinson? There's no Ross Robinson even in the band, the frontman is Corey Taylor. As for the picture of Sid, it says James Corey, which isn't his name either (his real name escapes me at the moment).

error just doesn't get it. Maybe the rest of you will, since your IQs aren't lacking like his.

:rolleyes

There's nothing wrong with the review. You're just retarded.

And if you DO think something's wrong with the review, take it up with the writer.

It's funny because that review has nothing to do with Iowa at all, nor does it get most of the facts straight or for that matter, even close at all.

The ICP review was one of my favorites. Funny as hell, and yes I am an admitted SlipKnot fan but the reveiw was fucking funny as hell.

I find the reviews themselves funnier than the hatemail. I just cry when I read some of the hatemail. I kinda sorta like Slipknot, but not anywhere NEAR enough to call myself a maggot.
