It’s such a treat when Mick makes a public appearance or interview.
Mick and Jim are two of the coolest dudes in the industry.
Everytime I see Mick talking my day gets better
Mick looks thin, sounds calm and enthusiastic. I love him ❤
Dude looks fantastic. It’s great to see him investing in his health as he’s gotten older.
He's actually BAGUL from Sinister.
Mick seems to be so much happier and approachable these days, you love to see it.
Still feels like he could be intimidating if he wants to be. Lol. But he’s a nice guy!
Mick is such a good storyteller. He should write a book about the formation of Slipknot from his vantage point.
i love Mick
"What ive learned is don't make plans" got it Mr. 7 ill take that as a motto.
He's so well-spoken. Doesn't seem to need to talk but knows what he has to say if prompted to.
An excellent synopsis.
He sounded so happy and excited telling the story 🤠
Been a Slipknot fan since 2000 and Mick has always been my favourite member.
Can't believe how fit Mick's gotten since AHIG, props man!
super interesting, it´s so rare to hear mick talk... thx for the upload
I can't wait to see you recording new shows dude!
I'm always watching 👀
@@MNOIR2024 hehe cheers man, i can´t wait to see slipknot again, they are in such a great shape currently
It ain't rare to hear Mick talk. He always talked he even talked in 2005 when voliminal came out. He talked about his gear years years later you just have to look super clear on youtube
@@TheIcpfan23 yeah i know there is some stuff out there but it´s so little compared to what you would find from any other of the remaining founding members.
Check his interview with chappers it's like 1 hour long video, dude is incredibly laid back.
Mick doing interviews is refreshing. Nice to hear anyone other than Clown and Corey talk.
Let’s gooooooo probably the biggest signing by Fishman so far.
Him or Richard kruspe
I would argue that one of the biggest they’ve ever signed is Stephen Carpenter
And Jerry Cantrell
@@nickoftime3170 Jerry Cantrell isn't a fluence artist, he is an acoustic pickup artist
Matt heafy is a big name too
Stacy got our boy healthy! So awesome
He did it himself. Stacy had nothing to do with it.
@@leenahusa1806Lol found the woman hater
Ozempic did it
I’m sure his wife supported him
@@leenahusa1806what happened to supporting women? Yikes
Nice to hear Mick talk about the early days.
Seriously! I’ve been waiting for something like this for SO long.
So he basically just told us all how the band was formed. I hope you all listened closely. Authentic as fuck!
Micks the GOAT!
I love the Slipknot formation storytelling from Mick Thomson here! Wonderful work!
Mr.Sev7n The King 🦁 👑
Suuuuch a cool guy, even his older videos, he's so nice, willing to teach and show others what he does. 10/10 for mick
The edit skills is 🔥🔥🔥
Such a awsome human
Mick and Jim are the shit! Two guitarists that compliment each other is a beautiful thing
Could not trust more the group of ears and experience behind these pickups. Stoked to see come to life. 🤘
Mick is the man🤘
Mick seems to get cooler and cooler as he ages.
Loved this.. i got to drive through Iowa the other day so… it was bad ass
This is such a cool listen!
Micks really slimmed down. Good work!
That" somebody else heard something and saw us" was Sophia John from 89.7 The River in Council Tucky IOWA. whom is credited by many reputable sources as the one that DISCOVERED Slipknot back in 1998-1999 days. I was there. I remember being from Omaha hearing all sorts of and seeing all sorts of stuff. Good times.
Amazing storytelling❤
Mick is a real beast for metal riff, love he speedy down picking, totally underrated
I laughed when he mentioned the old Carvin cabinet, I still have one and it's fantastic!
Wish I could go
Back
In town and see mick delivering papers
Great!! ❤
It’s part of his look and persona, but I gotta say, if this dude shaved his beard he’d look 20 years younger EASY. Especially now that he’s slim. This man is one of my greatest inspirations for writing riffs 🤘🤘 Long live 7!
Yeah, dude looks like he has a young face overall if he shaved. Corey looks young as hell for 50.
Last time I saw and heard Mick unmasked he was looking 3x chunkier. Love that he's been taking care of himself. Looking real lean and mean!
I love listening to him. He seems like a really interesting dude
MICK DA GOAT
Me too mick, I also spent a lot of time in my room figuring stuff out
awsome
The Fishman pickups sound simply Brutal! I have a Cort X700 Mutility guitar and the sound is crazy, I would buy Fishman pickups again without a doubt.
he looks fuckin great
Oh look, Clown was breaking bands apart since the start.
He formed the one you're parasocial with, kid.
@@Xerofortetrue hahaha
Ah, shit you beat me to it
Never seen him maskless. Great interview. 💚🎸
Inside the Nine Mick thompson #7 Unmasked Interview - there's another one :)
Cool
Kinda funny I was briefly in the scene then left and moved to TN from 93-97. Missed so many good local bands in that time period including Bodypit. When I came back everyone was talking about Slipknot.. Listened to the CD MFKR.. Was like huh? This is popular? Hadn't seem them live yet. Finally did then the light went on.. Then of course after hearing their RR debut.. Just blew me away. Been a proud fan ever sense. Sadly not too many local bands have done anthing since. A few have done pretty well.. Dead Horse Trauma, Index Case, Saul, Destrophy, Widow 7, Painface.. Of course non of my bands lol.
Mick was a big guy a few years back.. now he is looking slim and sharp.
Pink esp guitar for mick would be awesome! 👌
Wow, Mick is well spoken. Seems like he's a pretty smart dude.
I'd love to hear more about his incredible weight loss. Dude looks so good.
LOVE THIS ❤❤❤
And I was about to buy those MT Duncan Sigs..
Mick woke up and chose to lore dump the best metal history ever wtf! Best Mick interview ever :O ??
Lookin healthy!
The way he describes Slipknot forming is reminiscent of the Pearl Jam/Green River/Mother Love Bone situation....
Rad🤘🎸
After witnessing Mick Laying down tracks for All hope is gone I've been a huge fan of his playing since!🤘 check that vid out if you are into 7! His tone is evil Af on that video!🔥
Mick is a solid dude and tells it how it is.. total respect for him.
Mick and Jim are and will b3 slipknot
Mick slimmed down a lot. He looks good.
Probably under rated but easily one of the most influential players from the past 25 years hands down ...thanks for the good times mick you played the soundtrack for my life brother salute 🫡
MICK IS REALLY THIN AND REALLY OPEN AS OF LATE. HE IS FEELING GOOD, ACCOMPLISHED AND IM READY FOR HIM TO START AND BREAKDOWN HOW EVERY SONG WAS WRITTEN.....RIFF WISE. I KNOW HOW EVERYTHING START. JUST 2 BREAKDOWNS.....HOW DID PEOPLE AND DISASTERPIECE COME ABOUT
I legit read the headline thinking his signature set was CALLED Origin Story lol
Mick’s new name is “Slim Thompson”.
Mick gosto mais de você com mascara 😂😂😂
Dude always talk so fast but yet still comprehensible. Not gonna lie, I'd pay money to hear him raps.
I like Mick's version of the origin story of Slipknot more than Clown's version.
Yeah Mick makes more sense when he talks
Wow! I didn't know Bagul was actually a nice guy!
Hey, Mick! Don't shut down the mask and coveralls! :D
Is that what you mean to say?
Don't do that. :) I think the fans like it. :)
Will we have a 7-string version of these pickups?
@@werberthvinicius4159 His Duncan pickup is available for 7-string. He also tunes his guitars very low (B and drop -A)
@@kingpriapatius5832 Seymour Duncan goes about sales in its own way. Fishman, on the other hand, besides catering to numerous modern metal players who play six, seven, and eight-string guitars, predominantly markets the six-string version of their pickups, as evidenced by signature pickups such as those of Scott LePage, Tim Henson, and Devin Townsend.
@@werberthvinicius4159 Most guitarists play 6-string guitars. EMG does the same. He plays in low tunings, and his previous company did the same. If he was Clapton, it would not have been very meaningful, but it makes perfect sense when you play drop-B and drop-A tunings.
Who in the comments looked up the guitar company that mick Thompson talked
About?
mask of joey and paul in the crowd..
Most I’ve heard him talk tbh
I cannot get over how much weight hes dropped. Looks like a different dude
4:11 what are laikins???
Lichens
Cool hearing from Mick. Shame what Slipknot is now though.
Mike Shinoda grown hair?
He looks so much lean now!!!
love mick and jim , and god damn has he lost a lot of weight
Mr Seven...
Fucking love Mr. Seven so much. He's just so fucking hot. And badass as hell.
Fhritp!!!
Mick Thomson 0,7
idk, with his voice like that, he never do backing vocals or something
Nice voice doesn't mean you are good at singing?
Mick was more fearsome when he weighed more. Almost looks like he lost to much weight.
🥲
I'm pretty sure Slipknot would be famous even without the masks. The seller back then wasn't the mask. It was their stage performance. And I'm sure they could've done it without the masks.
I believe he believes everything he is saying - but not everyone agrees. I think it has to do with age and what sounds people grew up with. Personally, I do not like active pickups and the Fishman's are no different in that regard - Just because I don't like them does not mean they aren't good - they are good. I have them in 3 guitars and I enjoy the sounds. They sound good, they perform just fine and I can use them no problem. The thing is, for me, I prefer the sound of passive pickups...and that's all there is to it....at 60 years old, I also don't like too much technology in guitar equipment or batteries in my guitar - so that's my opinion. Les Paul, Tele, Strat and a Charvel, Tube amp, passive pickups a cable and a pick. If you can't make that sound good, then the problem lies elsewhere.
did he lose a lot of weight?
Dude has kept the same mask unchanged for the passed 24 years
Mick definitely looks thinner than he was
Someone should have asked him. If he is into other music.. what makes him play with Slipknot? Is it just money
Plz take away the music, it doesn't add to the video it makes it harder to hear what he is saying.
What happened to him? Why is he so skinny now?
He got healthy!
He really should have kept that 50lbs he dropped.
Glenn Fricker says that pickups make no difference in your tone. Passive or Active does not make a difference. Glenn Fricker says that pickup manufacturers are full of crap and lie to sell pickups. Glenn Fricker demands that pickup manufacturers provide graph evidence of their claims.
Heard this story hundreds of times but never from Mick.
He lost weight.
3 bands broke up to go play with clown .... interesting
Well, it was Clown, Anders, and Paul, and everyone in Des Moines thought that Slipknot and Stone Sour were the best local bands there in battle of the bands. So the others likely saw what Clown was doing and that eventually infected them enough to join in. Pair that with the 7-8 members outside of the founders and bam you had the most iconic Slipknot lineup.
