It's sad that they'll most likely never have a great album again. With Paul and Joey gone from the band, who were also the main contributors to the songwriting, I can't see any new material holding up well.

And that's if they ever get around to releasing another record in the first place. Corey doesn't seem to be too interested in it, which is actually the reason why Joey left and started his own side project. It's sad, because All Hope is Gone was actually a successful metal album, a rarity these days.

Word is their next album is going to be a cross between Iowa and Vol. 3.

AHIG might have been successful, but I wouldn't even call it metal. Most of the stuff played on alternative rock stations sounds like that, and is considered "metal". Either metal isn't all that unpopular, or these bands that are considered metal really aren't metal.

Slipknot for me, I liked "Iowa" and still listen to it on a regular basis. Can't say the same for any Nickelback album

That doesn't sound that bad, to be honest.

After listening to both extensively because of my former house mates. I definitely have to give this to Slipknot. I can at least tolerate them in small doses.
