About This Track

“Vermilion” is a song by American alternative metal band Slipknot, the song is released as the second single from their third album, Vol. 3: (The Subliminal Verses).

When the band plays the song live, they switch from their ordinary masks and wear their alternative “death masks”, which is an actual cast of each member’s face.

“The differences (between the two tracks) are subtle — ‘Vermilion, Pt. 1’ is about the enrapturing, the buildup, the anticipation and the neurosis,” says Taylor. “‘Part 2’ is the aftermath, the pieces that have to be picked up later, and maybe the guilt of having lived through it. “. Both songs are said to be about lost or unrequited love from a possibly suicidal person’s perspective.

    you can learn a lot from this song. of them is "wont let this build up inside of me", dont ponder and let things build up inside, in the end it'll just make everything worse. That is one of the things i have to constantly remind myself about.
