	I agree with TheGame56, because I don't ever recall hearing of Metallica doing drugs, plus Ecstasy isn't a drug you inject.

	you cant even compare metallica and slipknot sure, slipknot has some catchy thrash riffs -(sic) really pumps me up, i like the song- but can you see slipknot coming out with something like "the unforgiven"??? i dont

	u gotta be fucking kidding me, im honestly the first person to comment on this song? This is one the best songs in the history of metal,but not THE best, but still a great song this song, to me, is about a kid who has nightmares the sandman is a mythical person who puts people to sleep anyway, more of u metal heads need to comment on this song, its a GOOD SONG!

	i can say i like slipknot but i have 2 say metallica are much better and they would beat slipknot 1 million times over

No Picture Joe Average	#6 by Joe Fidler at Jun 11, 2007 at 3:19 PM EST
	to compare metallica with slipknot is sort os unreal isn't it? i mean, i adore both bands, they are very important symbols of metal music, but aren't they a little bit appart in time?
