 So
now Slipknot are responsible for knife crime.
Not the most obvious of choices, but The Dark Knights been shown
for a few weeks now (and society for 12 year olds still hasn't crumbled)
and we still don't have a Gotham related fatality, so better find
another scapegoat, and here it is SLIPKNOT.
Gotta be honest, I've never seen the initial thrill of this band, but
hey, that's just me. What really got me was the fact that the killer in
question was wearing a mask like 'Knot drummer Joey jordison, ok,
suppose that could be a similarity. Or if you dig just a smidgen deeper
(in my case a little poke around some very bog standard Slipknot
fansites), you will find out that Jordison's mask is in fact based on
the mask used by the character Eric Draven from The Crow,
WHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIICH!!!!!!!!!!!!! in turn is based on a very basic
porcelain mask used by artists, and board treading Thespians of old. You
can buy these masks in art supply stores the world over, and if bright
sparkly things are your bag, you can buy an even cheaper plastic version
of said mask that comes with felt pens, so you can be all pretty like.
KNIVES DON'T KILL PEOPLE, PEOPLE KILL PEOPLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HOW MANY
MORE TIMES.
