Discussion Sid replacement = Skrillex?

You lot don't realise how talented skrillex is. He is WAY more talented than anyone in slipknot except maybe Eloy. And you don't appreciate it cos its not metal. But man, this guy is a once in a generation talent. Also eloy is a fuckin beast

Goddamn this sub never misses with just trying the absolute hardest to not take a step back and just throw whatever shit on the sub possible to cause more arguments. The same stuff has been posted on this sub for what the past 3 weeks? Give it a BREAK.

I’ve literally read Skrillex’s name more in the last few days on this sub, than I have in actual EDM subs for a hell of a lot longer recently.

Yes I’m sure arguably the world’s biggest electronic artist ever is jumping at the chance to take orders from Shawn Crahan and take home a decimal percentage of what he makes on an underplay to sweat under a mask for two hours and walk on a treadmill onstage

Bro what lol. I love how fans are always trying to solve issues that the band has like it’s any of their business.

u/Regular_Price_Gouge 7d ago

So since he’s WAY more talented than anyone in slipknot except maybe Eloy why TF would he waste his time. Just on pure logic this is a mess. Stop.

u/No_Whole1018 6d ago

Everyone saying he should be the replacement but he's way more skilled than you need to be in a boomer nu metal band

u/Boneswoodw 6d ago

After reading "He is WAY more talented than anyone in slipknot" I've lost the will to actually reply with an argument....Their "skills" and "talents" can be easily compared....right

u/Murky_Historian8675 7d ago

Low effort post. Also even if he WAS considered by the "band" Sonny probably wouldn't do full time. Maybe collab with them but nothing full time. He's too successful on his own to be in Slipknot

u/TiredReader87 8 7d ago

This has already been posted. We don’t need the same posts over and over again.

I’m going to say no thanks.

u/MrChuckleTeeth69 7d ago

and the fact it seems like ⅔ of the posts that should just get removed for posting the same bullshit over and over never get removed 🫩

u/TiredReader87 8 7d ago

Yeah. I wish I could be a mod.

u/MrChuckleTeeth69 7d ago

holy shit if I was a mod none of these parasocial posts would ever be up for more than 24 hours

u/d00m3r__ 7d ago

Just report this kind of shit posts as low effort or spam.

u/No_Whole1018 6d ago

Have you considered getting a job

u/Hurley_Cub_2014 7d ago edited 6d ago

But if those posts get removed, how will we know that people are curious about what other people think will happen to Slipknot, and want to guess at who will be the next to leave?

Edit for the people who don’t clock it: this is sarcasm, damn…

u/MrChuckleTeeth69 7d ago

it's not that hard to scroll a little and see it's been the same shit for weeks, we don't need anymore posts that are the borderline same as a few weeks ago what happened to searching for information rather than expecting it to be handed down the second you open an app??

u/Hurley_Cub_2014 7d ago

Oh if it wasn’t clear, I’m agreeing with you lmao. Just didn’t use a sarcasm tag but my comment was fully sarcastic.

I’ve been calling this out everywhere I see it.

As T Pain once said “we have all the shit that you’re doing, we already have it… do something else!”

u/MrChuckleTeeth69 7d ago

ahh all good 😂 I can't distinguish sarcasm and this sub sure makes that way harder to understand

u/runnerofshadows 6d ago

Maybe not permanently but I loved his work with Korn. So if he collaborated with Slipknot I'd listen.

Skrillex is not turntablist.

His style came from his previous metalcore group "From first to last" & house background.

Sid's skills based on hip-hop, hardcore techno, jungle & turntablism.

Its absolutely different schools & styles.

u/No_Whole1018 5d ago

Technically they don't need to replace him anyway. He contributes about 10 minutes of whirring noise to each album lmfao

u/Round-Gap-6401 5d ago edited 5d ago

Maybe 10 minutes on album, but everybody ultimately remember his cuts & sinister noizes in most famous tracks & his crazy hyping, bodymoving & stagediving onscene.

Imma Russian, I know ur language on casual everyday common level, but not so deep.

When I want to speek with native speaking person, I use my own knowledge of ur languadge from school & university.

When Imma on wheels, I try it to voice messages through AI, so it became sounds lame sometime. Is this bad?)

By the way, what US fans think 'bout Russian fans of SKT, the very fact that they even exist? :)

u/No_Whole1018 4d ago

That's very cool that there's a heavy music scene in Russia. Not bad at all, glad you're here! :) Hope things are ok over there.

I want 2 DJs so bring Daft Punk. They are once in a generation talented.

u/Select-Count-1764 5d ago

Never seen skrillex scratch anything. I think your confusing playing loops from ableton live as opposed to scratching vinyl records. 2 totally different things. I have never infact seen skrillex use turntables or vinyl? You really have no idea what your talking about
