slipknots first album was freakin awesome the second and third not to great but still alright considering most of the new "metal" thats been coming out. but slipknot kicks ass in concert, seen em twice now.

beastie boys are cool, some of there shit is a little on the cheesy side but over all i like 'em
linkin park, hmmmmm... i liked when i seen them in concert before they were on mtv and hardly anyone know who they were, but they got played out quick. but i like there new video, breaking a habit ,or something like that.
