Alternative metal[edit]

Upon this song being one of the only songs of the album that doesn't exactly follow a "nu metal" time signature, but more upon straightforward heavy metal as much as their later songs go such as "Before I Forget" or "All Hope Is Gone", I would suggest that the genre should be kept as "alternative metal". - GunMetal Angel 15:40, 8 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

As you should already know we can't take opinions of editors in to such a discussion. We should always use reliable sources. REZTER ^TALK ø 19:11, 8 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

So I guess things like this (read the hidden comment) is not valid. - GunMetal Angel

Yes that is right... that should be removed. REZTER ^TALK ø 11:49, 9 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

It is, I did. That goes for everything else's theories - GunMetal Angel

Song Meaning[edit]

The song meaning has been cited from an un-reliable source. I have found a much more reliable one. Its a video interview of corey taylor. Here is the link to that interview. I tried to write the song meaning myself, but just couldn't word it right. Torque3000^|talk| 15:35, 30 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

If you were to cite that video you would need to locate and cite the original source which appears to be a tv show as that video has been uploaded to YouTube without the copyrighters permission. Just letting you know, I think it was from a VH1 special with the band in 2001, but you would need the original air-date to cite it properly. REZTER ^TALK ø 17:04, 30 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Okay so it might be difficult to find the original source. But can we at least remove/change the song meaning here. Compared to the one in the interview, it is quite wrong.Torque3000^|talk| 14:14, 4 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah definitely. The song meanings from Slipknot-metal.com are written by the admin of that website and they are his own personal opinion. 1. Wikipedia does not deem fansites reliable sources and 2. It is obviously original research too. REZTER ^TALK ø 14:41, 4 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
