Query: I expected the worst and was dead wrong

When I went to buy the album I first noticed no parental advisory sticker on the cd, which immediately lowered my expectations of the cd. Not because cussing is "cool" but the classic slipknot phrases I have come to love (i.e. "I want to slit your throat and F**k the wound) would not be present. I had done a decent amount of reading on the new album, when I read they were experimenting with new styles I figured that meant a Stone Sour sound with more double bass clicks (I f**king hate stone sour!) I put in the cd, which I expected to suck, and couldn't believe what I heard. Guitar solos, slipknot sounding Corey (not Stone Sour Corey) new guitar sounds, amazing Joey Jordison speed and style, and more fast paces mini-solos. I think this rivals the other two Slipknot releases and has reinstalled my faith in slipknot as a band. Awesome awesome cd!
