Craig was my fav member. I know his spot seemed east but it was always important to me. The way him and Sid elevate a track always spoke out to me at least and I’m sad to see him go
On the Paul/Joey thing, the circumstances were pretty different between the two. Paul was a member of the band when he passed and they were all on good terms, and when Joey passed he wasn't in the band and things were pretty awkward between them from what they've said. From Slipknot's perspective I imagine it probably would've seemed more disrespectful if they gave a big statement acting like they were his best friends til the end.
They never sued Mushroomhead. Mushroomhead organized an assault on them at one of their concerts and they had a decades long feud that only died out due to Paul's death in 2010 and Corey Taylor actively trying to squash it from 2006 onwards. However, no one was ever sued. Criticize Slipknot for things they actually did.
Youre trying to convince yourself. If he retired they’d just say it, they’d give a last show or a send off. If he retired, they wouldn’t have unfollowed him from all socials. I mean right? The “new guy” took the stage so fast he didn’t even have a mask, they put him up there in a ski mask. Slipknot is NOT an entity & the people who made that amazing music before, does matter. Sadly, slipknot has a history of throwing their “bros” away.
Slipknot is one of my favorite bands ever. I really hope they dont stop putting out new music. I get sometimes people can't sort out their difference, but it always hurts a little when one of the bands that kept me from offing myself as a kid doesn't make new shit any more.
I always hate to see drama in bands I've been longtime fans of. I'm hoping maybe Craig Jones just got tired of touring or just doing the band grind so much. Probably wishful thinking considering that weird deletion of the Tweet announcing it.
Any band that lasts this long, with this much success, and this many members... becomes a business, with staff that has deaths, downsizing, and turn-over.
You people call yourselves fans but cant be bothered to actually learn the truth. After pauls death there was 0 tolerance policy on drug use. Which chris and joey did not follow and were fired for it, Craig quit on his own terms.

Slipknot died around volume 3 in my book. Every thing else after was shit

Also, I hope you dont have to put up with heart issues any longer derek. Love you man!
Gotta love those halter monitor tests. I hope everything comes out well!
The knot slipped.
As much as I love Slipknot, they've been shady to me since the lawsuit against Mushroomhead.
They never sued Mushroomhead. Mushroomhead organized an assault on them at one of their concerts and they had a decades long feud that only died out due to Paul's death in 2010 and Corey Taylor actively trying to squash it from 2006 onwards. However, no one was ever sued.

@@timdragon22 thought there was, seeing as mushroomhead had to completely change their masks for copyright likeness reasons.
That was burgerking geniuses
Damn, can't believe you didn't mention Chris Fehn (Pinocchio) departure
i said it before and i'll say it again. i love the pivot to music content on this channel. big fan. keep it up.
Loving the shift to more music-related content. Hope your heart issues get better!
Slipknot is corey and shawn.. everyone else ... employees.
Its always sad when a ska band loses another member 😢
I'm going through heart stuff too my guy. You're young, you'll get past and conquer it. You got this
After watching a few videos of the recent shows, the new guy brings some good energy. I’ll miss Craig though.
I need that slipknot tier list
Brooo please do a tier list!
Strangely, without knowing anything, I’ve been listening to them a lot lately. Fuck that heart shit. Love you.
I have a prolapse too.
honenstly I think craig just retired. Given that he's so quiet I don't think he would've caused any issues

Love that this is a music channel now! Btw do you listen to Turnstile at all, I think they’d be up ur alley.

Slipknot is on its last tour. I have tickets to see them in Amsterdam. I'll see what's up.

Can you still do Twitter trash every once in a while?
Yes.. this was one of my fav things to watch
Music-related Twitter trashes would be interesting to see, I think!

Hello everybody !
I was more surprised to learn that Slipknot is still a thing! Heh
Listen to that new album. They’re dead for sure.
man.. slipknot's last album was kinda sus
You have a prolapse!?
That's not like slipknot to put something out like that I can't quite put my finger on it and I'm a huge fan of slipknot
Who is slipknot?
I don’t like the EP. It sounds like a knock off NIN
Saw them yesterday at Download and Clown was there at least. Not sure about Craig.
