I do not like Disturbed.

I do like this Slipknot song.

Voting for Slipknot.

[BurtReynolds]

I kinda like Disturbed Guy's voice. I don't like Slipknot at all.

Easy choice.

[LoathedVermin72]

omg that prayer video is so dumb, all the band members look ridiculous

[LoathedVermin72]

I forgot about the Flock of Seagulls-esque guitar in the bridge of "Left Behind". That's a cool section.

I really like the video too. Where's the sequel? I want to know what happens when the kid goes into the cellar.

2 songs I probably listened to daily in the year 2002.

Disturbed I guess, I voted for Slipknot guy in the Stoner Sour round already this time.

[E.H. Ruddock]

I'm like Kevin Davis here, I thought I'd never heard that Disturbed song, then I played it and realized I had heard it many times, just wiped it from my memory. Well fucking thanks RM, now it is back.

Since I am now disturbed, my vote goes to Disturbed.

Ack.

[50 Million Feet of Earth...]

The one Slipknot song I genuinely like vs. Disturbed? Easy choice here.

[Birds in Hell]

I'd never heard either of these before.

I don't think I've ever heard any Slipknot before this tournament but I've found them consistently unpleasant.

Disturbed it is!

This description is so, so funny to me

[bodysnatcher]

jesus

these songs sound like being in a relationship with a meth addict

[Kaius]

“Prayer” is a catchy little tune! Good harmony in the chorus. Cool bridge going into the last chorus.

[PHATJ]

Good god. I hate both of these. Abstain.

Slipknot is hilarious in this video. You can see how where the notion that some of their personnel are unnecessary comes from, as the guys on the extra drums and turntables are just thrusting about over top of their instruments rather than miming properly. I doubt their sound would be as dense with a smaller band, though. There's an interesting spastic quality to the song, and like LV pointed out, that guitar in the bridge is neat.

"Prayer" is another Disturbed song, and that's an immediate point against it. There's nothing really noteworthy about this one. The instrumentation is unremarkable and Draiman doesn't do anything unusual. Completely stale and safe, and thus not worth a vote at all.

Slipknot for the win.
