okay...its definitely a good band and a good cd but if you really wanna go there thesmurf, slipknots been around for a while too. slipknot has been around since before 1996, when their mate.feed.kill.repeat. was released. mushroomhead was actually established in 1993 and their first self-titled release came out in 1995. so slipknot and mushroomhead were created around the same time. the difference is that slipknot got their first major release in 1999 and mushroomhead got their first major release in 2001. and slipknot has had the same lineup since 1999. mushroomheads changed members a few times. like the loss of j mann. theres your history lesson... but yes, this is still a good cd.
