Joey Jordison

So you can't read drum magazines for very long without running across the image of Joey Jordison, the drummer for heavy metal band Slipknot

I know that metal is supposed to be technical and difficult to play...but I just don't get it. Not the heavy death/speed metal stuff anyway. Playing fast and hard and maybe not even together. Guttural screaming. It's funny, cause I used to think Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath, Iron Maiden...that these were too heavy/loud...but now those seem melodic and musical compared with stuff like Slipknot. To each their own...I don't begrudge anyone their tastes...but it literally doesn't make any sense to me.







This is kind of cool, a soundcheck:
