 Fantastic
Submitted on: 2009-07-10 |

| a great show.. these guys obviously grew up listening to Black Sabbath, Judas Priest, and Prodigy, and they've mixed these sounds up to be what i would call " a sound i hadn't heard before "... I've been listening to Slipknot since the day i heard them... these guys bring a new meaning to metal, and this live package is absolutely fantastic.. a must have.... |

 The time of the 9 has begun

| You know a lot of the songs are going to sound the same when Corey has to tell you the name of it before they start playing. But as the screaming crowds can attest to, the faithful still know every line and nuance. If you're a casual fan this double disc probably won't interest you. But if you're looking to enjoy your own private concert in your car to the annoyance of those around you, 9.0 Live brings more than enough. |

| Of course, because it is a slipknot album and they rock, the album definately has potential... however Corey's INCREDIBLY bad vocals on the album destroy any chance of this being "the greatest live album ever" Do yourself a favor, buy the Disaterpieces DVD.... and you'll see Corey in all his glory, without his voice all messed up.....you want greatest live album ever it's Disaterpieces, not this waste of 20 bucks. His voice is beyond TERRIBLE in the album..... almost to the point where you wonder if they even listened to this before they released it. No lie, it seriously sounds like someone else singing Slipknot songs.....dont waste your time with this, get Disasterpieces.... |

First off, as I can see in most reviews complaining about Corey's voice, I'm actually baffled that none of you are aware that it was the band's extensive touring which caused his voice to sound hoarse, NOT the mask. Hell, I sound hoarse after singing along at a concert for just a couple of hours, so imagine having to do that for approx. 233 shows, and then see how good your voice would sound. As for the instruments, they couldn't sound better. I'm a Guitar player, so naturally I listen to the Guitar parts more closely than anything else, and I must say that they're incredibly thick, and heavy. Jim and Mick perform flawlessly. Everybody else sounds great as well.
As for the actual review.
I've never heard a live album where most of the songs are actually better than the originals before. Seriously, you have to hear some of the versions of songs featured on these discs. I'll post the highlights and compare them to the studio versions.
The Blister Exists - Heavier than the original, and in my opinion it's much better.
Sic - Played at a slightly slower tempo than the original, but like the previous song, it's much heavier.
Disasterpieces - This song is anything but a disasterpiece. Mick's lead Guitar parts are much louder than the album version, and they provide some great hooks.
Liberate - Corey's harsh vocals actually make this song better than the original, where his vocals weren't quite as good.
Vermilion - The band performs this song exceptionally well, but I do have a problem with Corey's vocals, as he sounds quite winded, and you can really tell in the verses. And the last minute or so the song goes off tempo a bit. Still a quality performance though.
Pulse of The Maggots - Much heavier than the original, and performed with loads of energy. Definitely better than original.
Purity - Even though this was never offically released on any album, it doesn't keep it from being one of my favorite 'Knot songs. Very eerie verses.
On to disk two.
Skin Ticket - Slipknot never performed this song up until this point, and Corey stated that it might be a trainwreck, but it definitely wasn't.
Everything Ends - WAY better than original. In fact, this may be the best example of the live songs being better than the originals. Mick's lead parts were almost non-existent in the original since they were barely audible, but they're VERY audible here. Very good live re-endition indeed.
Spit it Out - Corey's voice makes this song what it is. Plus, it contains the "jumpdafucup" interlude. Too bad we can't see it though.
People = S#it - Very heavy, and performed with loads of energy. And the climax before the final chorus gives me the goosebumps.
Those are in my opinion the highlights of the two disc set. Take the advice of an actual Slipknot fan, and buy this set. It's fantastic.
Later, Maggots. |

 Live Slipknot

Ever wanted to listen to Slipknot live?
No, neither have I.
But judging by the cover of this album, at least 6 people have.
No, no. In all seriousness Slipknot aren't THAT bad. They just don't deserve anymore than 1 star. Their music is that perfect blend of metal that appears edgy and cult, yet is supremely accessible and predictable. I hear people say the band is misunderstood, or misdirected or mis-whatever. But the message "People=SH**" seems about as direct and understandable as can be.
They do have a very good drummer though.
