But then after months of touring and teasing we finally got new music on July 19th with "The Dying Song (Time To Sing)".  

But then less than a month (August 5) later they released another track with "Yen".

Now, it's time to sing...or just vote below for the one you like the best.

The Dying Song (Time To Sing)

Here is the first one.  No denying this is Slipknot.  From the first note of Corey singing and then the speed, drums, and just plain heaviness that is Slipknot.

What I was told from the label was that this was never supposed to be a "radio song" and they put it out just for fans to stream.  Why is that?  Well of course because it's "too heavy for radio.".  For f sake.  Other stations out there blow.  I-Rock 93.5 is still playing it because rocks.

Yen

Less than a month after The Dying Song the band, and label, put out Yen.  Which is considered a "more friendly" radio song.

And yeah, it is, cause it's a bit slower.  But it still has Corey growling in parts, some heavy drums, and the electronic sounds from Sid.  It's still very Slipknot.

Time to choose your favorite child.

You never tell which kid you like more...or maybe you do...we don't judge....but in this case, we need you to choose.  Yeah, maybe you like both...but this poll is only going to let you choose one.  So vote wisely, cause it could determine which song you hear more on I-Rock 93.5.  Although really...we're going to keep playing both of them.

Quad Cities Live Music Venues That Aren't Live Music Venues Anymore

Nostalgia Alert!.

We've compiled a quick list (by no means comprehensive) of venues in the Quad Cities that are no longer music venues but to us will ALWAYS hold a special place were we saw some great shows and made some incredible memories.

To many of us the live music scene wasn't just a concert here & there. It was an every weekend affair. And it didn't matter if it was a touring band or your buddy's band. We were going to be there with a beer in hand and scream along with guitars that were way too loud in a room that was improperly treated acoustically and make some bad decisions.

Bloody Marys have transformed from a simple glass of tomato juice, vodka, and some spices to an art form that can include everything from flavored salts to a full-on breakfast in the glass. Or in some cases, breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Check out what you told me were some of the best around the Quad Cities.
