Everyone knows that Slipknot changed rock and metal forever with albums like "Iowa" and songs like "Psychosocial." But I go even deeper, including:
* Slipknot's roots in death metal and grindcore vs their singles like "Before I Forget"
* How Joey Jordison popularized double bass and blast beats
* How they were different from nu-metal bands like Korn and Limp Bizkit
