I'm just gonna take a stab at the general reason people like me and perhaps these other folks don't like Slipknot is that their music isn't interesting or appealing enough... (ya know, personal opinion). And just because I feel like I might as well say it... enough to justify their get-ups...
I *could* listen to Before I Forget, but I'd rather listen to... something else. And that's the way I've felt about their songs when I heard them in the late 90s, too. Meh. Not awful. For example, I'd take Slipknot over most radio garbage like Nickelback, or pop or country music if those were the options. But I'd rather listen to anything else almost.
