      He might just edit it down, but I worry that it's not a great song for a reaction video. It took me till this year to really appreciate the song. I put it on while I was by myself driving in the middle of nowhere and the song really hit me, but he is just doing a reaction video on youtube staring at the computer. It's not the best mindset and place to really feel it. It's almost like funeral doom. It's all about atmosphere.

    Hip-hop Head REACTS to SLIPKNOT: "Scissors".

  • @JebsonofJeb
    @JebsonofJeb Před 5 lety +343

    Zero and zero nothing but zero means Iowa= the middle of nowhere. Running and running going on forever means there is nowhere to go, and he can't get out. When he says starving for zero, I think he means that he is STRIVING for nothing, and he wants something, and feeling, but there is nowhere to get it. When he says come see my cage built in my grain, I think he means the obvious... I am stuck here, and I have nowhere to go. But also, I think he means See me, my cage, my creation. It makes him ache and hurt. He can't think. He has lost his mental picture of himself. This place he needs to escape. He needs life, and he needs to feel, but he can't. He can't see the world through his eyes, because he is stuck in his cage. His home. And when he says keeping myself alive through your EMPATHY, I think he means that WE are keeping him alive by our understanding of his lyrics, and his life and feelings. I think this song and all the others were meant to be figured out by us. He wants us to understand him. He needs someone to understand him, because no one ever did. He is counting on us. He needs us. If there are people out there that understand what he is trying to say, I believe he escaped his cage."

      Great analysis. Also isnt there alot of grain grown in Iowa? So when he says "come see my cage built in my grain" maybe he means the house in Iowa he lived in he feels like he cant escape what happened there when he was younger?

      What Jim says makes complete sense. It's true with all bands. Different periods in their lives contribute to the different sounds of each album. That's why i never hope an album will sound like a previous one. However, the reason people may get upset if this album doesnt sound like Iowa, is because Corey literally said it's gonna be "Iowa levels of heavy." If he hadnt said that, it wouldn't be as bad.

    You kind of got it.
    The song is just an emotional release.
    It goes on too long 'cos it's meant to, it's meant to over stay it's welcome ... just when you want it to end, it keeps going, just like life. Him chanting for the last minute (or however long it is) is the thing running through your head (if your suicidal or whatever) "Keeping myself alive, keeping myself alive ...."
    Then at the very end he says it very defeatedly, the rest of the time he is enthusiastically chanting it, like what I imagine running a marathon is like "just keep going, one more mile, just keep going ...." and then when your body is 1 second away from giving up you defeatedly say "just one more mile" ... your mouth is saying it almost out of habit but your body has given up

    The release of torment in this song is awesome. Always loved this one as a fill song to lead into the next story. Also the beginning of the song was looped on their website when Iowa came out which is probably why it still resonates.

    I’m really liking these album reaction videos, especially with slipknot, you get to really feel and experience what each album means, I think you should really do all of them, but Iowa is just this gritty disgusting visceral piece of art that terrifies you and makes you feel emotionally unstable, just like Corey and the rest of the band while making this album, it’s a true masterpiece

  • @jefvl
    @jefvl Před 5 lety

    What I got from this is that he is experiencing a depression, singing about how he sees the world around him. Nothing interests or attracts him no matter what he tries ("zero and zero is nothing but zero"), he despises society and life in general ("cancer and people conspire together"). He wants to find a release and leave it all behind but only sees suicide as a way out ("my cage built in my grave": he's trapped in that situation until he dies). The only reason he doesn't commit suicide though is the empathy of a loved one, the only thing he keeps fighting for ("keeping myself alive through your empathy").
    In the end, the struggle becomes too great and you hear that his will to resist is ebbing away because the "Keeping myself alive" is getting weaker and weaker towards the end. The last time sounds like a person who just ran a marathon and collapses at the finish line, with only the eerie, shrieking background noises still going on (the world keeps turning, even though he is gone). This is my interpretation of the song though so I could be miles away from what Slipknot actually tried to convey in this song...

  • @buddykaiser2380

    I love Slipknot and this song but I have always felt like this song is Ross Robinson's attempt to "Korn" Slipknot up a little. RoRo has a way of pulling fucked up emotional responses from singers and creating a rawness and feel that I've never truly heard replicated imo. But I always get a vibe from this song that reminds me of Johnathan Davis from the first two Korn albums. Just raw unadulterated rage and pain.

    Leading up to this song the album equates people, the music industry and society in general, to an eventual zero-sum, nothing we do matters in the end, yourself included, it is all shit. When you come face to face with the reality in consequences of that zero-sum in humanity and yourself, it can very easily break you. Skin ticket is that break. It is raw anger and emotion. The only thing keeping him alive at this point is the love other people have for him (fans perhaps?) because he now sees himself as just a contributor of that zero-sum. Before when he was talking a big game and stroking his ego, he now realizes that he is nothing not even to himself. He tries to remain logical about it and say that this feeling is only because it is ingrained in him (also my grain could be a play of words on "migraine" as in it hurts to even think about it and he is trapped by it like a "cage"), but at the same time he can't deny his emotions on the subject either and all things considered his emotions are very real to him. So maybe there is more than just a zero-sum to look forward to...? I love this song, you can just bang your head, pound your fists and beat your chest while being honest with yourself because the lyrics are pretty simple and not the focus of the song. The focus is on how the song makes you feel and your ability to just... let it out. For me, it is so cathartic.

  • @heidibaltom8138
    @heidibaltom8138 Před 5 lety

    I think you got it spot on with it being more of an emotional release song than a lyrical song. I think he said the last line like that because he was tired of "keeping myself alive" and trying. He just wanted to give up. Also i think he kept repeating that line as though almost saying it to himself as in if he says it enough then it becomes true. I dont know but just a thought maybe thats why he repeats it so many times. Hes trying to stay alive but doesnt know if he can. Great video

    You keep listening to individual songs and not hearing the entire album as a whole, I think that's why you find this one so weird but I know when I listened I was like..hmmm that fits, keeps the sound changes the pace but keeps the tone, keeps that intensity and sets up for the next song. I like it.

  • @TheAspiringFitnessGuru

    See, he describes this song as emotional. This is why you should've listened to the album version of Everything Ends. There are parts of that song that are pretty emotional too.
