OPEN APOLOGY TO WILDKNOX OPEN APOLOGY TO WILDKNOX

I want to issue an official apology to WILDKNOX. I'm sorry you and I butted heads and I'm glad we're working with one another. I'm going to shoot an email to the site's admin and ask them to clean it up a bit, or make it look more RESPECTABLE. Is that cool? I want to work with you here. I haven't been on Wikipedia nearly enough in the last year in an editing role, but will be. Is that cool for now, Wildknox? :)

Oh you don't need to issue an official apology, though it is appreciated :). I don't know if an email is necessary if they are going through an overhauld but go for it. Wildnox00:57, 16 July 2006 (UTC)

8:41PM CST for WILDKNOX: Apology accepted. Thank you for accepting mine. What is "offish"? What is wrong with it if it provides what it's supposed to provide? Joey Jordison

The group’s sound is metal, with aggressive lyrics and at times a repulsive sense of humor. Fans are seemingly attracted not only to the catchy melodies of Slipknot’s songs, but also to the group’s symbolic persona. Reaching back to dramatic influences like Kiss and Ozzy Osbourne, group members wear masks along with prison jumpsuits marked with bar codes and identify themselves with numbers while on stage.
