Slipknot Star Frustrated By Censorship


. (TeamRock Radio) Slipknot percussionist Chris Fehn says he's tired of his band's lyrics being censored for broadcast on TV and radio. He believes the laws that make it necessary for acts to provide alternative versions of strongly-worded songs are only in place because control freaks want them to be.

And he argues there are much worse things in the world than heavy language. Fehn tells Rock Sins: "There's so many songs that they'll blip. I hate that. The worst is when they redo it with a different word.

"I'm like, 'Come on, man.' Even with the internet and how exposed kids are to things in this world? To me it's the least of the problems we have.

"But I guess that's the world we live in. It's just control - people want control." Read more here.
