Let's go back to the knot, shall we? And how about we don't deviate from albums, and stay on the superb Vol. 3: The Subliminal Verses? And keep it slowed down and free of growling? Yes, Slipknot was versatile in its heyday especially in the last two albums. "Circle," as we all should know, was a brilliant acoustic number with an atmospheric, folky feel. "Danger - Keep Away" is in the same fantastic vein, but more atmospheric than acoustic. It's good. Real good. Now this is how you end an album.
This is another side of Corey Taylor's vocals. It's impressive for an artist to be able to do two different things flawlessly. Growling/screaming? He's got that down. Emotionally-charged clean vocals? Just as good. Now, with "Danger - Keep Away" we take out the guitar from "Circle" and throw in a delicate, haunting piano in which few notes are struck, but those few notes... Drooling. Now, I am a huge metal fan, but I like to sing along to the lyrics...and death growling makes it difficult. This is exactly what I want. And hopefully, it's exactly what you want as well. And non-metal mongers, take a chance on this one.
I've been waiting for this to unfold
My pieces are only as good as the whole
