Slipknot: Ask Mick Thomson

He's fucking huge, wears a metallic hockey mask and plays guitar in the world's scariest band. But, beneath that tough exterior, we've been told he's actually a pussycat.

Never the less, for our own safely, Kerrang! dot have hired a gang of Third World mercenaries to kidnap Slipknot guitarist Mick Thomson and lock him in a room with a pad of paper and a pen.

And why the fudge are we doing this? To make him answer YOUR questions. That's why.

So get you thinking caps on and send us some to ponder over and you never know, you may be reading a personal response to your question right here on K! dot com in the very near future!

Send your question, name, age and location to feedback@kerrang.com with 'Ask Mick!' in the subject header or post them below.

How can you see your guitar through your mask? It looks like it'd be hard work to see anything wearing that... yeahh

So Kerrang! think you're a pussycat. But if you could be any animal for 24 hours what would you be and why?

Dearest Michael...

I have been told by close sources that you destroyed the periodic table because you only know the element of surprise.
What other amazing things have you done in your pastime that could surely top this?!

What inspired your freaky mask design? I think it's the best one in the band by the way.

Also, what inspired you and Jim to start putting solos into your songs?

1.) Do you feel somewhat restricted in the mask or does it make you feel cooler, or would you rather have your identities revealed?

2.) How difficult is it to get along with all 8 of your bandmates simultaneously? Surely it's hard to all agree on something, what's the biggest arguement you've ever had within the band, and who with?

Yo Mick I have a couple of questions, but firstly I Love Slipknot, you have been my favourite band since I was 9 when you first brought out 'Slipknot'.

1) I've seen the European tour dates with Machine Head and Children Of Bodom. The Uk isn't on this. Will you be touring in England?

2)How can I join? Like just as a roadie or take someones place or something?

Thanks dude, your a legend, and tell Joey I love him.

How on earth do you play with ur mask on?? Its gotta be hard making sure that ur hitting the right frets/strings!!

Posted by Another maggot | August 2, 2008 6:57 PM | Reply to this

got 2 questions
1. do you memorise the songs yous play live? saying as it would be hard to see out the mask. does it not put more pressure on you playing live?

2. whats the craziest thing youve ever seen with the band? with reference to corey mentioning the fireworks while recording.

ps cant wait for leeds going to be sic as long as yous play eyeless :p

Mick who is your favourite serial killer.
And if you were a killer what would be your weapon of choice.

2.)And How did you come up with the design of your mask? because in every photo i see you on, you always look like a bad motherfucker. And last how can you keep head banging your head everynight? it's a good thing your not like slayer still with your guitar but. but how can you keep doin it?

Hi Mick,
I have strangely noticed that Slipknots new video for Psychosocial, Jims new jacket and one of the Tattered and Torn t-shirts all bare a resemblance to what My Chemical Romance done for their last album The Black Parade, is this just pure coincidence or done for a reason?

You knob!! Slipknot rule, and if you don't like them stay the hell away from them. they are lyrical and musical genuis's!!
Posted by Leia Jade. | August 6, 2008 5:07 PM | Reply to this

Mick, Slipknot are my favourite band. But once or twice I've been learning the lyric's, and have thought, jesus, that's really odd, and kinda creepy, but blate's absolutly amazing at the same time. Has a lyric/song ever struck you on a deeper level, like scared/freaked you out?
Love
a huge Maggot.

Hi Mick,
Does it drive you nuts that so many of the questions you have received were proofread by the uneducated (or were simply not proofread at all)? It seems that "today’s kids" either don't care or don't know that they should care about proper grammar and spelling.

One more question: any plans for a "banana hammock" only show?

Didn't see that one coming, did ya? haha ;)

Doesn't your stage outfit get extremely hot? Because I dressed up as a member of SlipKnot (Joey) for Halloween and just the Halloween costume was hot, so I can imagine the real deal must make you feel like you're on fire.

of a band that has masks like slipknot and let me tell you something it is very hard to be in a band and maybe masks is not such a good idea if your friends dont want to do it.maybe you shoul have a conversation with your friends on what to do as a band idea .thats wat i did :)

Hi Mick!
It's great to see Slipknot finally coming out of hibernation!
I'm curious about the your mask. It looks like Dr.Doom's mask combined with Sauron's helmet from the Lord of the Rings movies. Is this where you got inspiration for the design or is it just a coincidence that it resembles the love-child of two villians' disguises?

I'm curious to know what drives you to write such terrifying music. What inspires you as a guitarist yourself?

In the past with Slipknot you guys have not been big fans of solos just that big metal sound why such a change into making solos? I understand experimenting is great especially looking for creating a bigger sound but aren't you afraid the millions of fans you have now will dislike your new sound? I'm trying to learn guitar myself but I don't have a teacher so i teach myself and following your sound is a big influence I enjoy the solos but I'm just woundering, why such a change?

While slipknot goes through its hiatus we can all see Corey, James, Shawn, Joey, Sid, and even Paul doing something. Do you ever get the urge to try something else during these breaks?

Yo, Mick, what I wanna know is what is the personal influence for each member of the band behind all the albums you've ever made? What drove each one of you to write your parts to the albums the way you did? Also what did you think of the band's first album, the one made before you, Jim, Corey, and Chris joined the band, Mate Feed Kill Repeat? I assume you've listened to it so what did you think of it?

Mick, im a huge fan of your guitar playing and of SlipKnot. So i was wondering in Voliminal: Inside the Nine you said that you were a huge advocate of masturbation and your urge to kill got stronger after you had a good nut. Is that still true?

Is it just a cover, or does it hold a hidden but true meaning within it's embrace? Hope to get a reply out of ya'. I've always loved your music and hell, I wouldn't mind getting my own number. Haha. So yeah, thanks for your time and peace out. Hail Satan.

I have always thought that you were an exceptional guitar player, however, I have friends that argue that you are terrible. Do you think that slipknot's style, where there really arent very many solos or space for you to really shine could be holding you back? and would you consider a side project with more solos or even adding more solos to future albums with the band?

Hey Mick, You have to be one of my most influential guitar players. I love your playing styles, I was wondering... what does your mask represent??? Why did you start putting solos in your songs??? How's Mayhem going for ya???
Posted by Ben | August 7, 2008 9:50 PM | Reply to this

How long have you been playing Guitar for to be as good as you are?

You are a great guitarist, and the first I've ever seen that inspired me to work harder on my Guitar Playing.. And I have done that because of you, and started my own band that will be coming out soon.

Is there anything you say to people inspired by you and your guitar playing? Anything to give us an extra boost to make it?

And you like Cats... What are your cats names? ;]

And lastly, would you ever consider opening up another Guitar School anytime soon?

Thanks,

Matt

Those who have seen Voliminal should get the reference here. With the lack of private time you probably have on tour, how many people have you been forced to kill?

After having your playing loads of shows and having your mask on at the end of the day when you take your mask off what do you feel or think?

Hey Dude, I just wanted to know what is your opinion on Korn and the whole Nu-Metal Genre of music? I personally love slipknot, Korn System of a down, and all that kind of stuff.

What's up Mick!?
I've been a huge Slipknot fan for years. I love what you guys do and you've got some wicked talent.

When working on ALL HOPE IS GONE, what were some things that inspired the album title, lyrics and the new masks? Also, will Slipknot be touring Fargo, North Dakota or anywhere near it? You guys should... the maggots here are fucking sic
:)

Rock on and stay sic.

In the last album, (Volume 3: The Subliminal Verses) Vermillion Pt. 2 was very slow and passionate. What brought on that slow and creepy, but yet soulful acoustic guitar in? Why not just a slow heavy rift?

Hey Mick,

How the fuck do you come up with such awesome riffs? I've tried everything yet struggle to write something heavy and still keep it sounding good.

Also if you could give any tips to someone new to guitar what would be your top 3?

P.S stay (sic) and come to the UK more please.

I think u kill em all out there and the mainstream degradin' comments bout the knot' are f*kin BS! So here's my question 1- You came only 1 date this year in Canada, why so?
That location is in Ontario, they love pop stars... every1 knows hard metal belongs in the "Belle Province" Québec! Heavy MTL was sick and WE NEED SLIPKNOT HERE!
2- How much time (approx.) do you spend playing guitar per day?
BTW lovin them solos, You n Jim RULES!
Thanks Mick

I've been a supportive fan of yours since Iowa came out and have been pushing your band onto my friends who listen to weak music. They all tend to say the same thing that you guys were so hard back in Iowa and have seem to loosen up a little in the past couple albums. What direction are you taking with the newest album?

Secondly, I know having your privacy is great and the masks obviously help with that but do you ever walk the streets and sometimes wish someone would run up to you and give you the praise you deserve when you're not wearing the mask? It seems like sometimes that recognition would be flattering to be recognized without having to be behind a mask.
Posted by Angelique | August 7, 2008 10:59 PM | Reply to this

Wasn't the new album supposed to be the "heaviest of slipknot's career"? I thought it would "rip our faces off", but instead it sounds like some soft pop-rock bullshit.
(If you're going to split up after this, at least you should do it with a mind-blowing badass album, to slam the door on your way out.)

What is your absolute favorite Canadian city to play in? I've been to concerts in 5 cities in Canada (unfortunately only one was a slipknot show) and found that Edmonton had the Best Moshpits, but Vancouver has the best shows.. So, what's your say?

Also.
You folk need to play in Canada more. I can't afford to keep going to the states to see you :P

Right, sir. Say you've got some mouthy emo fuck that pisses you off beyond all belief. You have 4 options.

1. Grab a chainsaw and show him what cutting REALLY is...

2. Beat him to death with your guitar...

3. Throw him to #5 and let him have his way with him...

4. Decapitation by guitar string...


(Only taken seriously if masturbation quota has not been met for the day.) lmao

looking back at the beginning of the band slipknot your mask was very different from the way it is now yet it still has the same shape and look, kinda like a pissed off look... it seems that with every album now your mask fails to change very much

so my question is whats kinda idea do you have for the next mask? will it stay pretty much the same with little change? or will it do a significant change like iowa to volume 3?

Are you guys going to be playing a show in Victoria, BC during this cycle? we need The 'Knot here on Vancouver Island! Are you going to be playing a show here before September 24th, 2010. My friend has this psychic ability and that's when she says you guys are going to play here next.

My question to you is, outside the state of Iowa but keeping it in the U.S what is your favorite city to play in? Or a list of 3 cities would be great!

Also, what would you say is the funniest prank anyone has ever pulled in the band?
Finally, who would you say is the biggest nutcase?

Hey Mick, big question here, how did Slipknot get signed?

What were the initial steps to getting signed and scouted?

Was it hard work?

I am in a unsigned band soon to be touring europe!

We are getting somewhere but we need the expertise of someone like you who has already made it in the music industry.

Please reply to this one dude!

Welll got a couple questions

1)I have tried headbanging and playing easy songs on guitar and i can't even do it.. How do you play songs and headbang?
2)How did you settle on ibanez.. i know you used to play a B.C Rich but before that did you ever try any other guitars?
3)Will slipknot ever come to ottawa, Canada?
4)Does slipknot ever have trouble when writing a new song incorperating the Percussion, Turn Tables & sampler??
5)I would really like to meet you guys and stuff so if you would like to meet me plz email me(nighthawk-88@hotmail.com)
6) I really like your ibanez and B.C Rich.. could i have one of them?lol
7)How did you come up with your idea for your mask? How come you didn't change it in 2008(not that you should cause it is an awesome mask)?
8)I extremly want to meet you guys :)

Hey Mick what’s up, big fan of yours. Just wanted to ask
1. After the All Hope is Gone album and after all the tour are done, are you or any of the guys going to do any outside work with other bands or make another Slipknot album (hopefully).
2. Why didn’t you change your mask like some of the other band members (even though it’s awesome).
3. Will you guys ever come to Ottawa, Canada I really want to see you guys for the first time.
4. Will you Slipknot ever have an intense Mick solo lol. I really want to hear you frickin rock out.
5. What other bands/music to you listen to.
6. Please come to Ottawa, I am such a big f***ing fan.

Thanks
P.S you rock and inspire me to play guitar thanks a lot.

Love the band, the music rocks-it kicks ass. My question for you is this, being the only other successful band that has played with masks or makeup to disguise your indenties(you guys being so much better). Do you and the other band members make an attempt to 'cover up" when photos are taken without your masks?
Secondly, the guitars on Psychosocial are awesome, do you and Jim work on the guitar parts or is it more spontaneous?

Hey Mick! Are you a fan of Stone Sour?
& And if you can choose your mask AGAIN what would it look like?

My name is Megan MAYHEM, I am from California and I am 13!
Posted by Megan | August 8, 2008 7:48 PM | Reply to this

about the masks; how did you make them originally before you had others make them? and who first proposed the full-band mask idea?

and a question as to musical style; when you (as a band) desided to branch out into a broader style that wasn't strictly heavy metal, do you (personally or as a band) believe that the inclusion of more mellow songs (along the lines of "circle" or "vermillion") was a good move, or would you rather go back to being more of a heavy metal/headbanging sound?

and a comment to end this: the combination of heavy and melodic sections in songs (psychosocial being the most apparent to many, both vocally and musically) works really well. as long as Slipknot continues to put out great heavy music, i will always be listening. keep on doing what you do; you rock.

Do you have any tips for making my band successful in my hometown? eg how do we convince clubs and underage events to give us gigs.

im not in it for money, its just that we are tight with all our originals and people wont give us gigs because they want expeirianced bands that will pull acrowd. this is annoying because i live in a small city and these are the only gigs around to do! the f***ed up part is that the reason why those bands got popular and "expeiriance" is because they started out at those gigs in the first place.

Imagine, that the whole world was blown up, but you and the rest of slipknot however amazingly survived this tragic bomb attack.
Your cold, your hungry, your scared and most of all your sexually frustrated. As you are fully aware, there is ONLY 8 people left beside your self, all being members of slipknot and one of these could relieve this sexual frustration.
who would you go for and why?
also, the food supply is going low, who would you eat and Yet again...why?

Hey mick,
allot of slipknot fans seem to be very surprised, and unfortunately some offput, from the new material. i for one LOVE it. is the change in music something you guys did for a creative change, or was it just how the music came into your heads (if you know what i mean by that)?

First of all the new shit is amazing so far I cant wait for the cd second of all with mayhem not coming to my end of canada and you playing other countries on your tour first when are you gonna be back here, specifically alberta even more specifically red deer but calgary or edmonton would be just as good?

Mick, how do you suck at guitar so much? Why the sloppy solos? Why always drop B? Why so slow? What's with the cheap pick-ups? Are you afraid of light gauge strings? Why the lack of flow? Why no technicality?
Who sucks more at their instrument; you or Joey?
I'm actually thinking Joey, but your opinion is valid as well.

Name: Jason Shade
Age: 22
Location: FOB Warhorse, Iraq

First off I gotta say, no fucking way. This is a brilliant fucking idea and it's about fucking time. Now for my question. Let's go back to 1996 when you joined slipknot replacing Craig. Slipknot has already recorded Mate.Feed.Kill.Repeat and now it's time to raise the bar and set a new personal standard. 1997 Crowz was recorded (I'm fuzzy on exact details, just a fan). This was a time for Slipknot to really become who we know you as today. Why is it that nothing has ever been done with that recording? Please dude, allow me to elaborate. There's a whole new breed of Slipknot fan out there nowadays, spawning from the Iowa album and especially from Vol. 3 (The Subliminal Versus) which appealed to a more "main stream" crowd. As a fan of Slipknot from a very young age I'm glad to have known Slipknot from the Self-Titled album. It made it easier for me to become aware of such things as Mate.Feed.Kill.Repeat and the evolution that Slipknot has gone through. I personally feel that the newer fans would fucking lose their fucking minds over that shit. For example, The Me Inside and Me Inside from the Crowz album are so fucking incredible to listen to when I'm so aware of Me Inside from the Self-Titled. It's about like being a little kid on Christmas morning. Tattered and Torn, Gently, Only One and Slipknot (Self-Titled Track) from Mate.Feed.Kill.Repeat are also prime examples of the point I'm making. Finally, Slipknot's greatest single of all time, Wait and Bleed. There is a demo recording of that track on the Crowz unreleased demo album. If there is anything that would catch the attention of the more mainstream influenced type of Slipknot fan it would be to hear that demo. Mick, why has Slipknot decided to let the Crowz demo album fade into non-existance instead of doing something with it? If you don't feel you can answer for the whole band than please answer as the individual, #7.
Please excuse typographical and grammatical errors.

So this is difficult to do since I have so many questions. I have one question I think that might be worthy. I don't know much about you as a musician or your standpoint in it besides a guitarist for slipknot. How do you create your riffs? Do you take advice from the other guys on what to sound like, or do you go by how the vocals are?

Ask your mother why she didn't swallow you. Wait:I'm sure the reason is the other half of you must have ran down your sister's legs first. Let's pretend you know what strings and pickups are, then i guess you're great at writing,too. I'm sure no one needs to teach you about flow because you seem like a huge douche. I'm sorry. You must be great. That's why you write about other people.

I dont want to go into to much detail on here but if you could email me at frostbite911@hotmail i would give you all the details.

man its gonna be HUGE and we would like your input on it.

its a first in SOUTH AFRICA, so it will ensure that metal goes down in the history books (in the way its suppose to be written)

I have cleaned his room and he has Slipknot written all over his old books and stuff from Jr High and High School and anything that he could write or draw on...I really want to get him tickets to another show and possibly back stage passes.

His headbanging is just made for marketing?
How do you feel doing this?
Who taught you to headbang like that?
Your head hurts?
Your neck hurts?
How was your relationship with Paul Gray?
How old you got to admire the Heavy Metal?
You, in an interview, told the world to be a big wanker. How many times have you just enjoy during masturbation?
Ever thought of changing the mask?
I'd like to kill Sid, what do you recommend doing?
How do you imagine your death?
Shit ... forgot you're a guitarist immortal.
Who would you kill now?
I would like to come to Brazil?
