Paul Gray From Slipknot Dies

[Adz The Rat]

Seen a few things on the net to report that the bassist from Slipknot has been found dead this morning from a suspected overdose.

I feel for his wife and family.

Be a real shame it that spelt the end of the band.

I was just about to post this, I'm not a fan of much of his music but it's a shame all the same.

RIP.

Real shame

They are dropping like flies this year, The Rev (avenged), Dio and now paul. Maybe god is making a moshpit up there?

[tuscaneer]

how much input did he havwe in the band?i always assumed it was mianly joey jordison and that big on guitar??not sure though as not massively involved in their music

Gutted, was very shocked when I saw this. It is always upsetting when these guys destroy their bodies to the point they drop dead...so many others have gone this way but they just keep doing it even when they have a family.

[yozzer]

Its a massive shame, they are a great live act, have seen them three or four times and each one was outstanding. Hopefully wont spell the end of Slipknot............

its horrible tho, these guys seem to go on a bit of a self distruct.

Sad loss of a talented man RIP Paul Gray.

You missed the other big one, Peter Steele.

There is a Slipknot concert being shown on Scuzz (Sky channel 374) at 9pm, might be worth recording.

Him and Shawn the Clown were founder members IIRC.
As said, a real shame, i was a big "maggot" back in the day!

Bit of a lump in the throat there I must admit.
