I think Dragonforce are worse because it's nothing but shred, which is REAL BORING. Slipknot are by no means my favourite band, but they have proven themselves as capable songwriters as far as I'm concerned. Dragonforce are just like Iron Maiden for Nintendo fans.


I did see Herman Li play with Tool once though and I have to give him props for that, he was sweet.

I've never gotten into Slipknot and I probably wouldn't be able to identify any of their music. I like Dragonforce, and I happen to like girly guys who play guitar damn it. Especially if they're asian or asian-looking. And I like video game nerds, and video game sounds. Sorry.

I can understand why everyone hates Nickelback. A lot of their music rubs me the wrong way, but I can't help but admit that some of their songs are catchy.

Heh, you must listen to death metal. Shame.

All death metal fans are told to hate slipknot and dragonforce, amongst emo and what not. Sure, dragonforce can't write lyrics to save their damn life, but their music's still good.

I was hoping Lamb Of God and Hatebreed were the choices, I would have mad a fake account just to vote for both.
Pretty much any band with a "frontman" is a joke.


I like Slapnuts for what they are, which is just Kiss for total morons (show and appearance before music, merchandising, cult following, etc...) I'd actually like to see them again live as the first time totally sucked.
And I like Dragonforce when they were called Iced Earth, Rhapsody, et al....

To be honest, I stopped listening to music on the radio several years ago, so I couldn't say which is worse.
