Gotta say this is much better than the snippet in the documentary. Makes more sense when you hear the entire interview.

Sometimes I can’t even remember the question..but his answers are interesting nonetheless

"The Biggest band"? or the biggest ego? wtf is this? he is in the band and he acts like HE IS the band, what the fuck ?

Has there ever been a less talented & more loved artist in metal ? Unbelievable, practice banging on pots and pans kids u never know

Clown is the type of person you regret ever talking to. Such an annoying twat.

Bros literally the guy they just couldn’t get rid of, brings nothing to the band.

Clown is so facinating he has such a complex philosophy of everything having to do with life or slipknot, hes nuts but hes honestly fucking brilliant at the same time

So does this guy do more for the band than hitting a keg with a baseball bat?

I searched high and ow for an unmasked interview with this guy and this is especially good because its intimate and in his house. I've always loves Slipknot , I had the magazines when they first showed up but I've never been a massive fan really, I was more into other shit. However, this is the guy more then anyone else who I would get along with. I didn't know he was a welder. I'm a welder.

Pretty sure Joey and Chris started the band. It's not clowns band he thinks he's artistic but he's full of crap

The Clown is like Joker: Nothing's funny, yet they smile with fear and disgust

Wonder if he knows anything about Johnny Gosh and the disappeared children in Des Moines.

I have been following the band since 2000 and I think I have seen 95% of the interviews Clown has ever done, obviously I can't claim to have seen all of them, but this one is by far my favorite.

Shawn Crahan always comes off as a huge poser that got lucky Joey and Paul could write catchy tunes.

Dude is a pretentious loser. I've never once heard Paul McCartney, Dave Grohl, Geddy Lee etc etc refer to their own band as "on of the best bands ever"

You can tell he believes everything he is talking about. That’s deep.

To everyone that laughs at him for hitting a beer barrel with a bat: without him Slipknot would just be an uncoordinated mess. Slipknot is the band we know today thanks to him. Aesthetic whise, theathricals… he doesn't just hit a barrel with a bat, he has done much more for Slipknot.

Remember we "Maggots" have a symbiotic relationship with Slipknot. We must feed from each other to create the magic we all seek from music and art 💚
