Lots of band members, scary masks, and metal music that focuses on being as psychotic and frightening as possible - if this sounds similar to Slipknot, well, that's because these are the guys that Slipknot supposedly shamelessly copied from. Having been around before Slipknot, Mushroomhead have a broader and more diverse catalog to draw from, but the premise remains the same: loud, macabre, and definitely aimed at the darker parts of the human imagination. Co-headlining are punk rockers (Hed)p.e.; Supe and Straight Line Stitch open.

Mushroomhead is a great band...always have always will be.....lol....Slipknot is pop music they play it on the radio all the time...they do what the producers tell them to do and they put that on the record...you know crap that is suitable for the radio...so they can make money...that's why Slipknot is so succesful....it's all a bunch of Radio..pop metal...sell out bull....lmao....Slipknot is true Pop metal.
Like I've always said...if you like pop music that plays on the radio...Slipknot is your band....besides since Iowa Slipknot has gone down the toilet...
But Bands like Mushroomhead...straight line stitch....hed p.e....etc....those are the bands that do the music they want to....the stuff you don't hear on the radio.....because they refuse to do meaningless manufactured music..they do it for the fans and sound good doing it...
So have fun with you Pop Metal music dude....yeah you love radio don't ya
Slipknot will always be Sellouts

I love slipknot and mushroomhead and Slipknot isn't pop metal. They changed because they wanted to, to make money and Vol 3. was great and so were the first 2 albums. All Hope Is Gone is the only album in my opinion that slipknot produced that they changed purposly.
