“I know you just said you don’t like Slipknot and have listened to this song 200 times but I’m going to tell you that you are wrong and act like you don’t know why you don’t like Slipknot”

I never said they were wrong. Maybe that person hasn't listen to other songs.

I have actually. Probably 20-30 of their songs. And I also just really love Rick Rubin. That's part of my love for Duality. Watch Rick Beatos breakdown of it. I do like some of their other stuff ok. But if I'm gonna go heavy I'm choosing Animals as leaders or Thrice or something like that. Slipknot is too straightforward sometimes for me.

I like Thrice, I never heard of Animals as Leaders, I'm going to listen to a some of their songs. Any recommendations?

It's all instrumental with the lead guitar taking place as the vocal melody. Physical educational is the easiest to intro into. It's the popiest song they have probably. CAFO is more chaotic but interesting. Ectogenesis is really cool too.

On Impulse.

I think the first AAL album is the best of the lot but it’s just Tosin and his producer I believe not the band as we know it who are all phenomenal players.

I’d recommend watching some playthroughs on YouTube too if you like/play guitar. Tosin Abasi is one of the greats, he’s a big reason there’s so many tappy, slappy 8 string players now

I doubt it but maybe haha would think that’s a point you make to someone closer to you than a random stranger as It seems a bit rude but really I’m just teasing, no real harm done. There are worse comments in this thread.

Like barely if that, just maybe could’ve been worded differently. All good tho!
