Slipknot - Killers are Quiet Lyrics
Cycle of life and death supposedly
goes 'round and 'round yet it stops with me
Glorious hunter of my faith I have sinned
Killers are quiet like the the breath of the wind
Raised by kindred of Get I was born
Abomination world in disarray
Killers are quiet when they seek the vitae
Reflection beckons a portal shard
Spiritual quest I must stay in guard
Stepping sideways betweens worlds I shift
Killers are quiet when they are born with the gift
Beautiful Anguish cast out by my race
I write my own laws with Death I break bread
Killers are quiet when they come from my head

Slipknot Killers are Quiet Comments
Anders>corey tbh. Like corey but mfkr is def my favourite slipknot album
I see a lot of people in the comments trying to compare this to IOWA. Me personally, I don't consider one to be superior to the other, as I believe they both represent different things.
For me, this song(and most of Mate, Feed, Kill, Repeat) seems like a portrait on insanity, where the person depicted slowly retreats inwards into a deeper pit of anguish.
IOWA seems more like where the insanity is projected outwards onto the world, a depiction of rage and a person's hatred of everyone else.
This song sounds so dark i Love it
I like Jeusus
Who wants to start a Doom Nu-Metal crossover band?
Is Corey singing this or is it Anders?
Anders sounds awesome on this
So is $lipknot$ style not Corey's? Asking for a friend. Fuck fuck FUCK
"Cycles of life and death supposedly
Goes round and round yet it stops with me
Glorious hunters of my faith I have sinned
Killers are quiet like the breath of the wind....." bone chilling lyrics
Masterpiece
Оно и правда все убийцы тихони.
Joey is clearly trying to fix the cycle
Cycle of life and death supposedly
goes 'round and 'round yet it stops with me
Glorious hunter of my faith I have sinned
Killers are quiet like the the breath of the wind
Filling the shadows with forms of my own
Raised by kindred of Get I was born
Abomination world in disarray
Killers are quiet when they seek the vitae
Reflection beckons a portal shard
Spiritual quest I must stay in guard
Stepping sideways betweens worlds I shift
Killers are quiet when they are born with the gift
Beautiful Anguish cast out by my race
Now one that's Ageless I save my own face
I write my own laws with Death I break bread
Killers are quiet when they come from my head
There is a 20 minute version of this too.
Iowa was so good Anders went to the past and did a parody
So that's why I'm quiet.... Knew it.
Great sawng.
I prefer this to Iowa but I think it has to do a lot with the lyrics on this one as I'm a fan of werewolf the apocalypse.
Fucking 10 Fucking Bitch Ass Motherfucker Minutes Fuckin Song
Killers Are Quiet: *Just the band jammin out*
Iowa: *Corey cutting himself, throwing up & screaming*
Steven is Quiet.
Now I know where the song Iowa comes from.
ok now bring me a cup of coffee please and thank you bb xoxo
this is a lot cooler than the band they became
The image looked like a fuckin' saw trap
Reminds me of God smack. The drums and the deep vocals.
craig song :D
333k views
*o shit*
Looks like Buckethead behind the machinery
They wear the same mask, but Joey is about a foot shorter.
Dark as fuck
THIS IS IOWA

did you have a stroke
6:17
Sorry grandmother didn't mean to give you a heart attack.
At 1.25x it has this epic vibe
Woah! This is how Iowa sounded!
God I love MFKR. All of the demos of really good songs. Like killers are quiet: lowa. Slipknot: (Sic) [fun fact sic stands for said in context]. And other great and amazing songs
The greatest slipknot album of all time, imo
Why is it so long
wwekidgamer fun Iowa is longer
@DonovinSkatesツ oh thx
Is it just me or do maggots have a good sense of humor
Castle....
Funny... when im listening to this kind of slipknot songs, i´m more scared than from any black metal music :D
Iowa Is better
The 40 dislikes are nickel back fans 😂😂😂😂
My favorite song from them sic as fuk😈⛽🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Killers are quiet like the breath of the wind. 🔥🔥🔥 lyrics
Legends were born
Slipknkots style changed so much after this album.
Damn this is good!
holy shit craig jones is a killer!!!!
Line up: Anders, Josh, Paul, Donnie, Joey, and Shawn.
Credited: Anders, Josh, Mick, Joey, Craig, Shawn
What about craig? there's alot of samples in the song
Al Kaholic they did all the samples without craig. Craig joined as the guitarist afer donnie left then went on to samples
RIP Paul and Donnie
@Alex Danilov Donnie died?
ÊмеяssФи Sтaiиd dont think so. I was just saying test in peace to their credit on the song
This record and prosthetics are my favorite knots
It is crazy to think that from this line up of Slipknot that only Clown is still in the band RIP Paul Gray
I wouldn’t mind, in an alternate reality, where Slipknot was a sludgy metal band with huge industrial influences, like from Throbbing Gristles.
I've always been a loner. I'm that person that nobody knows I'm behind them. It happens to me more than a friend waiting for me after class...
So this was the first version of Iowa (the song not album), they actually used every song off this album and put them on Slipknot, Iowa, and Vol 3 (re recorded and changed up a bit, but still the same songs). I’m not a big fan of before I forget but the main riff came from mate feed kill repeat. I also wonder if Andres got upset for Slipknot using all of his lyrics, he wrote some amazing stuff.. in fact a lot of my favorite songs were originally written by him (lyrically atleast).
Anders has a YouTube channel and Facebook page. He stated he has no regrets, that he sees it as he gave away his band, he didn't lose it or get voted out. Hes now in another band and has a family, and hes pretty happy with life as far as I can tell. They didn't use all his lyrics, only a few. Like for this song, they took the main riff, but totally changed the lyrics and meaning. Anders also stated that "its their property now" he said its up to them what they do, its their band, and that he has nothing against Slipknot or its members or choices. He also said that the fact he started such a legendary band is enough for him to be okay with him not being in it anymore.
My older brother got in a bus accident while listening to this song
This Is Iowa but before
Wait, is this iowa from Slipknot?
Christopher Hamlen Yes
wtf is lowa?
D. Charlotte I dunno
kittens are quite
KAQ- Iowa of MFKR
Scissors- Iowa of the debut
Iowa- duh
Either Danger Keep Away long or short version- Vol 3
Idk about AHIG and Vol 5
ParaboIa _ Gehenna maybe AHIG
Your forgot the album crowz
I want to meet craig and impale myself on his spikes. Im an addict. A failure that can destroy my vocal chords and a guitar. I need to be sacrificed and puked on and bled on and fucked aftwerwards. I turned up my forty when i heard 7:38 and beyond. I need to be this. She hates me. I hate me. The holy trinity hates me. Join the cult fuck the club. I am going to
1. that's edgy as fuck
2. what the fuck are you smoking and i want some
brianyzq777 i dont smoke meth anymore just bud lol i was drinking old english hahaha it was a rough night
Craig wasn't in the band when this was recorded.
this and gently are the only good thing off this album
What about Confessions?Some Feel? or Do Nothing/Bitchslap?
What about Gently? Slipknot? Only One? Tattered and Torn? And every other song? Theyre great. That's a very subjective thing to state.
Feels more ominous and eerie and atmospheric than Iowa
paul gray used to be part of a band called "anal blast"
the song names are just... great
Lol i remember that
My dad told me when he was in the army this song was huge over seas in iraq
that's cool
Wtf? Bullshit
@Christian Vega I think its bullshit too but we don't know
@Chinese Duck Sauce a demo from a metal band is a huge song in Iraq, yea you're right 😂
@Christian Vega no way they heard this song, only a thousand CD's exist of this album 😂
💀💀
This video is old. He has a MySpace link in the deacription.
*Fucking MySpace*
Slipknot doesn't even own a copy of this album
I think Clown and Joey still have their copy, but I could be wrong about that.
IOWA vs Killers are quiet, in my opinion: Lyrics: This one. Instrumental: IOWA.
Ya the lyrics for IOWA are just to damn scary
I love mate feed kill repeat
This song has a pretty eerie sound to it. I think that's pretty cool. And a lot of people think this song is about Craig or whatever, but I honestly think that this song could be about Michael Myers, think about it
Will York Music not at all. This song as well as basically every mfkr track are about Anders' werewolf character from some fantasy card game they were all into at the time. He has a youtube channel where he explains the shit better.
kittens are quiet
kittens are quite
I'm really shocked that they didn't keep this album. As much as I like Iowa, this is where the heart of Slipknot is, in my opinion.
Stella Blue this is a demo
Stella Cashman this isn’t officialy an album or a demo album it’s just purely unofficial and it’s anders not Corey Corey wouldn’t want this as a Slipknot album now
When slipknot uses the 10 minute ad revenue trick, and becomes a cancer gta 5 youtuber
nice joke
*cough*lispyjimmy*cough*
Please stop
I cant buy this fvcking song anywhere.
Stephen James it wasn't released to public if i recall only way you could get this "album" was to go to their concert back before they were big it's now treated as a demo instead of an album
Actually,there's only 1000 CD's from MFKR.
I had the whole album and stupid I pod stole the music and was lost in my computer so fuck iPhones and Apple thieves
I had the whole mfkr and apple stole it when i downloaded my iPod and my computer file was corrupted fuck Apple thieves
Why buy it when u can get it on the www for free??
amazing
Pentex Sucks /Mini Monster/ bone gnawers suck. All that sucks dies!
Someone needs to remix this with Iowa Just to see how it would sound with Anders and Corey.
It´s quite interesting to hear both at the same time
Great idea
Corey and Anders screaming about different things at the same time would sound bad ass
Actually they are both good in their own right. This song is amazing and sludgy, and is just a great metal song. Iowa to me feels like an update to the song, it has a lot more audio texture, and is more atmospheric. Although one can never be better than the original, I tend to like Iowa a bit more, because you can hear and feel the attention to detail that was taken to transcend an already awesome song. A lot of people bring up the point that one singer sounds better than the other, and while I am not a big fan of Anders' voice and tend to favor Cory's, I feel that they both fit their respected songs. This is a very subdued yet chaotic balled of obscurity, and I feel that they both pull it off in their own accord. I don't think either of songs is better than the other. They are both great songs.
good point
andrew gonzales well said
Can we also add that Corey stood naked, and cut himself with shards of glass for every scream while recording that song.
I'm two years late, but a good effort post nonetheless.
anders is shit, looks and sounds like a fuckin caveman, corey is infinitely better as a vocalist
Look their both good the band thought Corey would be good along side anders both as vocalists at the same time imagine that but that would be 10 people and anders felt cheated so he decided to leave to start painface either way I love both of these people in different ways anders for death metal Corey for nu metal
purely subjective
360dullboy420 Corey is a better singer, but I like Anders more as a metal vovalist the screams are more lively... or dead in the case of Slipknoy
drums are better than any 2nd gen slipknot song
That part at 6:16. There is absolutely no way on earth Corey could performance that part that well. He's a great vocalist and got ditched from the vocalist spot because his voice wasn't mainstream-friendly enough. Not cool tbh.
Is "Iowa" bassed on the beat of this song?
Javier Taylor Sykes Yes it is. Only the lyrics were rewritten.
+maffy715 Thanks c:
And the bassline is slightly changed
This song reminds me of Craig
I think it is about craig
Not so much about him, but it's inspired by him.
@Grail Colon Craig Jones, the band's sampler
so craig is a killer...
@Sam Mitchell if Craig says something it's just like sneak attack it scares the shit out of the rest of the band
It was never about Craig. The lyrics are based on werewolf the apocalypse, specifically a type of werewolf that has become a hybrid between werewolf and vampire also know as a abomination or a pale one.
@Eddie Hjalmarsson no shit
Slipknot doing doom metal is amazing.
A Liars Funeral tho
@Okay Damn A Liars Funeral has too many BPM to be a Doom Metal song 💀
Oh its true....KILLERS r quite; watch out for the quiet ones
David Yorke well, im a quiet one. YAY IM A PSYCHO KILLER LOL
and the reason im always quiet is cause im rocking out all the damn time with headphones in, and nobody appreciates my vocals in class lol
David Yorke I'm quiet, but I just don't want bullshit in my life.
This was primal version of Iowa........
The drums are trying to calm the storm of vocals.
And bassline.
this song sounds so dark I love it
Anybody listening this on 5.1 speakers or more. Every few seconds sound is changing from right to left front speaker xD
i sta? haha
+Sweet Palinody nista.
Hey yeah
whats the genre of this song in particular?
tribal deathmetal id say
I know I'm treading in hot water here but I think its nu metal.
no nu metal is what they are now nu metal is rap influenced heavy and this slipknot even said things like cannibal corpse as an influence along with sepultura who is tribal death
raven sousa Slipknot does not think of themselves as a nu metal band and cite the timing of their debut with the mislabel.
maffy715 I know they don't but by today standard they are nu metal my point is they were tribal metal around the point of anders being in the band and even cited acts with tribal influence as inspiration such as sepultura who consider themselves as tribal deathmetal
Mate.Feed.Kill.Repeat
2 years later and still worth typing: no shit
Mate.Feed.Kill.Repeat
I think most songs from this album were re-done
with corey instead of anders.
+jennifer pennington Corey re-wrote this as Iowa and re-wrote Gently
This is good too, but I think I still like Iowa better.
not as dark but sill
I actually prefer this version tbh haha but both are great.
same IDVaultOfficail
It's nice that we can all agree on both songs being great!
Of course cause this version has 5 members and the song Iowa has 9 members (more members more ideas more elements more talent more fun to hear)
What is Killers Are Quiet about?
It is about Craig being quiet
+Danny greed
Probably the type of person who is afraid of others and needs a night light to sleep.
+Josh Morris Its about Craig Jones, the Samplist/Keyboardist.
I honestly think that in a way, it could be about Michael Myers
Anders was obsessed about a card game (similar to magick the gathering) that was about vampyrs and weirs or something, and the name of the game escapes me. But if you pay attention to the lyrics of this entire lp there are references to Gaia, werewolves, vampyres, shapeshifting, drinking blood, etc. Alot of it was based off of this fantasy card game and sort of translated into good horror movie style metal.
Brasil caralho.
