Roadrunner Records hat eine Pressemitteilung betreffs der Vorwürfe gegen Slipknot herausgegeben, in der nochmal ausdrücklich darauf hingewiesen wird, dass es keinen Slipknot-Song Namens "School Wars" gibt, wie unter anderem Bild behauptete. Die komplette Mitteilung in den Kommentaren.
Slipknot were recently made aware of some of the publicity that has appeared regarding the group in some articles concerning the tragedy in Germany. They now issue this statement:
"First off, our deepest sympathies to the victims and their families who have suffered this senseless act of violence. Second, it is ludicrous to place the blame on our band or any other form of music. Slipknot does not have a song called 'School Wars', we have never written a song called 'School Wars', and we certainly would never encourage people to kill others. We are a blanket of hope for our kids, not a scapegoat for attacks like this, and while we send our most sincere condolences to those affected by this, we will not take responsibility. Once again, we send our prayers to the families of the victims. Thank you."
Ist auch völliger Blödsinn, die Band dafür zu beschuldigen! Aber diese Pressemitteilung wird in den Medien, entweder garnicht beachtet oder wieder etwas umgestellt.

Ich finde diese anschuldigungen mehr als absurd. meine meinung ist, dass die presse und gesellschaft nur mit dieser anschuldigung von ihrer eigentlichen schuld ablenken wollen, sie brauchen sündenböcke. und zumal es diesen song garnicht gibt, finde ich es noch lächerlicher, was zur zeit abgeht! ich sage nur: bildet euch eure eigene meinung, hört nicht darauf was andere sagen. ich habe auch, nachdem ich das mit den texten gehört habe, sofort angefangen, nach diesen text zu suchen, und meine suche war erfolglos!
