Gen Z is very confused by Slipknot.
The YouTube channel REACT shared a video of these young adults hearing and seeing the band for the first time and of course it’s hilarious.
For context, most of these kids were either babies or not even born when Slipknot started, but I’ve also been told that this REACT channel is completely faked/scripted, which would also make sense. Everyone is a liar. It’s still a fun watch, though.

THE NU-METAL VERSION OF THE WHEN WE WERE YOUNG FESTIVAL?
Every 90’s nu-metal kid’s wet dream will be a reality next May as the Sick New World festival takes over Las Vegas. The festival will feature bands like System of a Down, Korn, Deftones and pretty much every other band that pairs well with JNCO jeans and a chain wallet. The lack of Limp Bizkit on the bill is almost as confusing as not calling it “Sick Nu World,” but it looks like an awesome time regardless. I even put together a little playlist of bands that are playing (and should be playing) to help get you hyped.
Pierce the Veil Announce First New Album in 6 Years
Pierce The Veil will be dropping the record The Jaws of Life early next year. No official release date has been set, but they did give us a second single, “Emergency Contact.” Their frontman Vic Fuentes said making the new album “brought the band closer together than we have ever have been.” I can’t fucking wait, I got to interview Vic and the boys at WWWY and they were so damn cool, and I have a feeling this album is gonna be a monster.
Ozzy reveals the real reason he’s moving back to the UK

In a new interview with Consequence, The Osbournes say they just feel unsafe in America after Sharon was accused of being racist and was ousted from her role on the daytime show The Talk. She defended some unsavory shit that Piers Morgan said and people were pretty upset. Ozzy said they had to start traveling with armed guards. I don’t know if it will be any better in the UK for them, I mean they still have TV and internet over there.

5 Butt Rock songs you pretend you don’t love
“Butt Rock” in case you are unfamiliar, is the genre of hard rock where the vocalist sounds like he’s gargling gravel while singing about strippers and being a bad ass. The term originally started when all the local rock stations started using the slogan “Playing rock. Nothing but rock.” It has had a negative connotation for awhile, but I say it’s time we end the stigma and embrace the Monster Energy of music. Here’s 5 of those songs that are undeniable bangers.
