I find slayer a bit predictable. But Slipknot where at the forefront of a whole scene and will be remembered forever, I think.

isnt it the exact opposite....slayer was one of the first to play thrash/death type metal....slipknot wears funny masks and thinks they're the shit?

wheres that battlehawk guy on this one

of course,Slayer is one of the influences to death metal and one of the best thrash metal bands....Slipknot on the other hand is a crappy nu metal band whose fanbase is made of angry MTV teens,who dont listen to anything that dosent get played on MTV and their favorite Metallica album is St Anger :devil:....any song from Slayer's Reign In Blood album beats anything from Slipknot

sorry I'm super late on this one, refering to one of the qoutes above, I totally agree with krissirge on this one

But going back to the very early 1990's, I think we can really blame Metallica's Black Album and the grunge revolution to blame for Thrash Metal's big fall.

If you think about this, prior to 1991 where the black album was released, Megadeth released Rust In Peace, Megadeth's fastest album and to me, my favorite from them. Exodus released Fabulous Disaster (I love that album to death) again an onslaught of Thrash metals insanity!

But here enters the black album and grunge for which metal never recovered. With the abrupt change in direction. Thrash was never the same again. Slayer tried to make a good effort with Divine Intervention in 1995 but could never live up to the glory days of Slayer.

Metallica then eventually KILLED all hopes of a Thrash ressurection with LOAD/RELOAD. Enter MTV where the fan based genre started getting geered toward rap/metal nu-metal influences. Korn, Slipknot and others show up. Their influences are that of the new material of who they look up to.

Thus being, the songs musically got slower and the songs meant about. "Being angry" but not the anger expressed like Slayer. The anger is more like having a period and mix in a few sad emo-pathetic emotions. Blended together to appeal to the emotions of a proto-grunge era nu metal listeners across the nation.

But mark my words, Thrash is making a comeback, EXODUS is in the studio right now recording what is to be nothing less but an unmerciful assault of metal to kill all of these nu metal bands who stand in their way. Slayer will also be in the studio soon and Jeff has hinted that he is a bit pissed off at things. Venom is almost done and you can hear their new song anti-christ on their website.

Thrash has made a ressurection and nu metal and proto-gungers will fall!!!!

THRASH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

plus thrash fall had also something to do with the rise of death and black metal,because thrash metal used to be the most extreme metal around but suddenly there were faster and harder bands around and thrash suffered a big blow

:huh:

I would be VERY surprised if Slipknot is remembered in ten years! Neither band does anything at all for me, and I don't understand the appeal. I would rank Slayer a lot higher than Slipknot, but Slayer is still just some heavy metal band. They're just better at doing that than Slipknot is.

I really dislike both for my own reasons.

If you don't like Metal and dont liek either band that dont voice your opinion based on the fact you hate both. You're not wanted here anyway.

Slipknot at least has variety, Slayer is so bland.

Get a fucking clue. Slipknot just thrash away, perpetuating their faux-Death Metal Nu-Metal bollocks.

Slayer (well, old Slayer at least) ripped your head off with their sickeningly fast tracks, insane drumming and sharp guitar riffs.
