Metal Showdown (Round 1) - Slipknot vs Marilyn Manson

I vote Slipknot just because of Iowa alone. I know their lyrics are pretty awful most of the time, and their instrumentation isn't anything all that special, but the album has some pretty decent high energy songs that are for the most part are insanely catchy. Manson has some decent albums in his discography, but he'll never be able to come close to Antichrist Superstar, which is his only stand out record to me.

Like the idea of the thread though, and it could be a lot of fun when we get two bands/artist that are similar in style and people actually have a divided opinion on.
