Joey is the SOLE reason why I ever picked up the sticks. I could never thank him enough for the absolute inspiration affect he has had on me and I know BILLIONS of others! May he rest in peace. And ACTUALLY, rest in peace.
Remember knot fans, Clown and Corey, kicked Joey out through a lawyer and an email... but didnt have any issues, displaying his belongings, and capitalizing off his legacy with the band... Corey and Clown are disgusting for that, and the band will never be looked at the same way by a lot of the core audience.
I think a lot of their core audience progressed into heavier music. I was in 6th grade when I heard slipknot, I'm 35 now, haven't bought their albums, don't watch the videos, not into the mouthpiece Cory became.
@markcurtis7550 same! I still like slipknot but that wave pretty much passed it's course I only go back for nostalgia reasons when slipknot was cool, I honestly don't know anybody our age that is actually into them anymore lol but yet I see alot off ppl wearing shirts and it's usually nu metal fans
Clown is the sole reason why this Band Reputation is tainted I hate Slipknot Management since Paul Grey's passing and it's starting to get ruined when they fire Joey...
@@lambsauce5312 My last name is also Gray, people spelling it wrong depends on where they're from, in the UK where I'm from people would often misspell my name with an e because in the UK that's how the colour is spelled, same goes with anyone else out there with Gray or Grey as a last name. People make mistakes it is what it is, i don't know if your last name is also Gray or something? but most of the people with this last name understand that it's common that people will spell it incorrectly, so why give a shit lol
Clown is not cool as he thinks he is. I always cringe when he talks. He is an edgy teenager in a 60 year old man’s body. Corey is just as much to blame too.
the fact that his family had to file a lawsuit to get his belongings is very telling. silpknot always claimed that they were brothers and blah blah. you dont act like this toward your brothers. i havent listened to a slipknot album since iowa, the other one have sucked pure and simple.
They let money come between them, same as every band. When you're broke, chasing a dream with your best friends, sharing everything because you'll all starve if you don't, it's easy to spout all that brotherhood shit. Inject enough money to make millionaires out of everyone involved, teeth and claws come out and everyone is going to get hit.
I thought The band's already returned all Joey's stuffs and properties back to his family. I don't remember that there's a lawsuit. But i can't blame his family though. After his firing Via Email (No management or even band meeting) not to mention back in the 2013 when he still suffered from Transverse Myelitis. Sounds like a betrayal to Joey
@@terrymcclay3897Yeah. And let's not forget that Joey was original Drummer and also Co-founder of Slipknot. Now it's sound more like He Sta bbed Joey in the Back. That's the betrayal
Funnily enough, the other night I was watching a video of him covering Lars during one of Metallica's gigs. VERY talented drummer, he did a brilliant job covering those songs after performing in Slipknot the same day while adding his own flair to it
Corey is a great vocalist, & Shawn has always been a clown. I think with all the shit surrounding the band the last few years, SLIPKNOT has become more of a shit show than anything. I'm so disappointed.
I'll always love their music, but don't let the 25th anniversary and Eloy's hype make you forget how awful they were towards Joey, and how his firing from the band haunted him till his sad and undeserving passing...
Joey was the leader, and the most charismatic passionate showman and inspiration for millions. if not for him i would never get into slipknot probably... his drums parts and stage presense... unbeatable...seems like notes belonged solely to him, almost like he invented those notes, he and his drum kit was one living being, ubsolute little monster absolute hearing, absolute genius!
I had to pull over when I found out he passed through a text message that just read, RIP Joey Jordison. I couldn't believe it. Joey is the reason most of us got into drumming. He was also the nicest guy out of all of them too.
Joey was always my favorite since 2001 when I first sat and listened. Glad I honored a man with a good heart. Makes me feel ill the way he was treated before and after his death. Rip Joey you absolute legend. Was never the same after Joey and Paul ❤
This is sooooo so sad my love and prayers go out to his family my son is a die hard fan of slipknot he was soooo devastated by his departure of the band and then his passing R.I.P 🤘🤘✌️🖤🤘🤘
Well, a written agreement is also called a contract. Slipknot Inc. should've known better. Since there was a settlement, we likely won't ever know what the terms were as parties typically agree to keep those agreements quirt. R I P Joey, you were the absolute best.
Shawn recently spoke about how slipknot isn’t close anymore. It was once a brotherhood. Now.. it’s business and it’s because of shawn and Taylor. Hired musicians is what you see them as right? I love slipknot still to this day but what it’s become.. keeps me away from being a hardcore fan. I will not buy merch because it’s not the band of unity i grew up with. Instead it’s a mass business which i hate with all my heart. Joey was there before taylor! He designed the logo and was a pivotal part of the knot. How do you just kick a founding member out?! How can you call him a brother and not communicate with him as to what’s happening?! Joey wanted back in for years, he loved slipknot! And they took it away from him. Meanwhile when corey struggled they had the patiences to wait and communicate? 🤔 of all 9 people.. only 2 control everything
@@Tridentwolf why are you so blind to Joey over everyone else in slipknot? Chris Adler was a founder of lamb of god he was kicked out, Jim Martin was a very early member of faith no more and he was fired via fax machine. Being a founder doesn’t make you a boss, numerous people in slipknot sinsaneum and other bands said Joey had demons and was likely a user up until his death his own ex gf said he was a terrible alcoholic, you think all that STARTED as a result of him not being in slipknot anymore? If you do then all the roadies and ex band members who’ve Spoken all have an agenda against Joey huh? Foh
@@romaretaylor9953 how exactly am i blind to it? Maybe you are! Joey among many others have and had an issue in slipknot. During that time They all got wasted! How do you though joey got in to that lifestyle?! They use to puke up in their masks! How do you think that happened? Genius. I already know joey had an issue but what you failed to realise is how bad it got after he was booted from slipknot! He might have been able to kick the habit but he didn’t have the support of his “brothers”. And anyone with addiction issues will just go deeper in the hole to cope because that’s what they do. Secondly let me explain from a business point of view since you know jack shi*. Had joey trade market the “S” and made legal claims to the name.. they would not have been able to boot him so easily without paying him off big time. Same was Dio has no rights to the black sabbath name and it was ozzy who made it sabbath. Despite being a drummer he was that iconic. Had corey been going through the same issues i doubt they would have kicked him out, i bet you they would have gone on hiatus until issues were resolved through communication which they seemed to lack for joey.
@@romaretaylor9953 firstly Chris Adler left lamb of god. And where in my comment did i say they couldn’t fire him as a founding member? How do you call yourself a “family” while having little communication. Yes Joey had issues but he isn’t here to defend himself anymore and from all those years gone when he did defend himself he mentioned he has health issues and the band members thought hr was wasted!!! Run your mouth all you want but you wasn’t in his shoes to be pointing fingers! Was Jay weinberg also another person with drugs/alcohol issues? How about Chris fehn? Had Joey trademarked slipknot as corey and shawn did then it would have been more difficult. Mike and Jim are an integral part of slipknots sound yet they are “hired members”. They can have an opinion but they can’t really talk about it without loosing their jobs though! The Slipknot i grew to love was a family and not a business. They sold out to be “upper middle class”.
My opinion Joey is seriously responsible for the Slipknot sound the drums can be replayed but they’ll never have another drummer recreate that sound. Just like Lamb of God without Chris Adler.
Joey was my main inspiration for starting drums when I was 10 years old. Eventually I got his signature Pearl Export Series drum set. Best drummer to walk this earth. Sad to see how things turned out
While there are many reasons to dislike the fallout between Slipknot & JJ, especially with how it was conducted, I'd just give my 2 cents to the situation that there is a lot more to the story than people know about & what took place behind the scenes... In fact, those that were clued in might have seen it coming... but again, nobody here was in the situation to tell the story of both sides. That's all I'll say on the matter. RIP Joey & thank you for the memories & the music
Say anything you want to believe but Slipknot IS dead when they fire Joey, I mean this person pull his heart out to us maggots and that's how you treat him? that's totally BS, I am sad that knowing Joey is not longer with us and I followed his band after he got kicked out, they were definitely amazing, such a shame.
Why do you think Jay never got joeys actual number on his sleeve ? Because Joey was actually #1 same way Paul was #2. Those will always be their numbers. Eloy won’t either but that doesn’t mean he’s a trash drummer
I have a huge love for Slipknot. Many years of loving their music. My favorite album is the grey album. I always jam out to "Override" and "The Burden" real loud. Those songs just sound absolutely beautiful to me..But they really did Joey dirty its such a shame..I won't let any personal stuff that happens between all of them ever stop me from being a fan. ❤🤘
One of Wednesday 13's most recent interviews seems to suggest it was alcohol related. He basically equated the circumstances of his death to those of Alexi Leiho.
I think it was alluded to by the members of his post Slipknot band that he was still using/drinking up until they day he died. My guess is that’s probably why he was let go by Slipknot but if you dare say that to one of their fans they will just cry sacrilege and point the finger and Corey/Clown
I’ve always wanted to visit his grave and pay tribute somehow. Joey was such an amazing guy and has been a huge inspiration for me. I live really far away though ☹️ I love him very very dearly. RIP ❤
It’s masks and memorabilia, they’re trying to keep his name part of their legacy which it should be. They have stuff from Paul Chris and Craig in the museum
Forever will enjoy Slipknot and will always have that special place.. that said group was done after Paul’s death… will continue support regardless from then and onward . But that was too tough for the band to move from. I enjoy everything they have done and still doing musically but for those of us that seen the original 9 live ✊🏼 yall know .
That ain’t got shit to do with anything. If Joey was still in the band and Corey was fired in 2012 you think that would’ve made the music better? How?!? Joey physically couldn’t do it anymore at that time it was either move on or end the band for good
Unconditional means that they agreed to drop it and not persue a trial... Meaning they got nothing....serves them right for being selfish and greedy, they only want that stuff back to sell like they sold his other stuff.... they are not good people for trying to sue slipknot for sharing joeys drumkit with the world and his actual fans... not the family that let him down multiple times and treated him like shit. all about money to some people.
Fuck I'm so torn. How can they do this to a long time friend? Money changes people. It infuriates me honestly because I love slipknot, I've been a fan for 20 years. Seeing them be nasty behind closed doors to one of their own makes me sick. I know Shawn crahan is a p.o.s. I hope he gave Joey's family all his personal items back.
@@sugarsoreagreed but at least he’s extremely talented and an excellent performer. Hetfields just as much to blame as Lars but Hetfields an undeniable genius, Lars is mediocre at best. I can forgive bad business when there’s talent. Clown only cares about monetizing.
He was also a raging addict that wouldn't get help but whatevs brah. We can love and honor Joey forever for what he was, the greatest drummer of all time and the powerhouse of Slipknot in its best years, without making him out to be a sinless martyr with no demons.
So this video is three days old and clown in that interview that is coming out today on the same channel he talks about Joey as if he was in the band up until the day he died. And just pretends like that’s why Joey isn’t in the band anymore if Joey was alive that he would still be here. Clown, you’re not even a real musician. Why they elect to split the profits with a guy that does somersaults on stage is beyond me, but you guys fired him and then kept his stuff to make a buck off it. This is terrible 🤣
Y’all need to stop acting like clown literally doesn’t do anything and never did as a longtime fan it’s CRINGWROTHY, Shawn is a drummer and was the original drummer for slipknot before Joey came in and then HE came up Witt the idea for the extra percussion, HE also was the first one to wear a mask sparking the image growth, he directs their videos directed the album artwork and most assuredly contributed to the music/writing. Paul himself said without Shawn there wouldn’t be a slipknot.
@@romaretaylor9953 so he was the original drummer, but then Joey came along and Joey was better so clown was just going to have a big drum that he would beat on stage in between somersaults? Look, I’m not the world biggest slipknot fan, I was a fan, but they were never like my favorite band. But apparently many other diehard fans like yourself seem to blame him for the reason slipknot isn’t respected like they used to be anymore. I mean, kind of look at what you said. He was the original drummer and then Joey came along and it sounds like he would just feel that “extra percussion “ part out and he was the first to wear a mask. I’m sorry that just doesn’t sound like a lot. he wasn’t good enough to be the main drummer so he decided to become the mascot?
Clown is the downfall for Slipknot. I assume Slîpknot is just a cashcow nowadays. The members are not friends anymore and as we all know, corey is not even that interested in Slipknot, then he was in the earlier years
@@otallonothere’s nothing Hollywood about Corey 😂 so he likes to talk big whoop every lead singer has that “problem” to an extent, your just mad he’s not the same alchoholic nut he was back in 2001
They planned this all along?????? First of all Paul died 11 years before Joey did and Craig retired on his own volition literally a year ago. People have been calling slipknot sellouts since 2004 when vol 3 came out if they wanted to “keep it raw” than they would’ve ended it all after 2001. How you gonna blame other people for someone’s substance issues?
Just a reminder that Joey had transverse myelitis, and LEFT the band because of his health. I loved Joey too, but the salty butthurt all in the comments is pathetic.
Joey is the SOLE reason why I ever picked up the sticks. I could never thank him enough for the absolute inspiration affect he has had on me and I know BILLIONS of others! May he rest in peace. And ACTUALLY, rest in peace.
Same here. Joey Jordison and Travis Barker were my drum teachers. I miss #1 dearly. He's my favorite drummer of all time. Travis is a close runner up

I love Slipknot but I will never forgive or forget how they just booted Joey out of the band and how the handled that situation overall.
Super happy to have gotten one of those free shirts. Bummed I didn’t get a chance to go see Joey and Paul’s grave
I literally was just talking about JJ!
Funnily enough, the other night I was watching a video of him covering Lars during one of Metallica's gigs. VERY talented drummer, he did a brilliant job covering those songs after performing in Slipknot the same day while adding his own flair to it
The most disheartening part of it all is them using the brand to “honor” Joey when 8 years prior to his death they turned their backs on him.
Corey is a great vocalist, & Shawn has always been a clown.
I think with all the shit surrounding the band the last few years, SLIPKNOT has become more of a shit show than anything.

Slipknot is a business, period. All Corey and Shawn care about is making as much money as possible.
@sugarsore 100% correct!
They don't care about anyone except themselves. It's make as much money as possible & fk everyone else.

Joey is my favourite musician ever.
firing joey via email was such a cowardly thing to do
Yall know they'll sale it
Sell
Unconditional means that they agreed to drop it and not persue a trial...
Meaning they got nothing....serves them right for being selfish and greedy, they only want that stuff back to sell like they sold his other stuff.... they are not good people for trying to sue slipknot for sharing joeys drumkit with the world and his actual fans... not the family that let him down multiple times and treated him like shit. all about money to some people.
True
It’s sad that so many delusional people can’t recognize the inconsistencies in this case but their blinded by their 7th grade level emotional logic
Woah.
Rip to him
Without Joey, There would be no Falling in Reverse.
The knot seems to being going further into the black hole they've made
Rip joey😔
Just like Vinnie and Dime made Pantera what it was
Sorry but I still don't know why they pushed him out from the band.
1 minute of silence for Joey because he was #1. For Paul they made 2.
Not the first band to fire a drummer soooooo ol. Welllll
Five minutes and forty seconds of absolutely nothing. Thanks again, rockfeed.
If Jim and Mick were wise, they'd get out too. Never know when Slipknot would turn on them either
Lets go joey!!! Rip legend slipknot isnt slipknot anymore...just a cover band now...i hope Joey's estate's gets justice for joey
Dang... Look into Joey's eyes, he was not that well, I mean.. just look him in the eye, you'll see.. 3:25
they never show any decent photos of him, kinda odd
Fuck I'm so torn. How can they do this to a long time friend? Money changes people. It infuriates me honestly because I love slipknot, I've been a fan for 20 years. Seeing them be nasty behind closed doors to one of their own makes me sick. I know Shawn crahan is a p.o.s. I hope he gave Joey's family all his personal items back.
Blame the clown, he’s the one who turned it into Slipknot Inc
@@MeangenehimselfShawn’s been saying in interviews since the self titled era that slipknot was gonna take over the world, thats been his mission
Corey deserves just as much of the blame. People just avoid that fact because he's the front man.
@@sugarsoreagreed but at least he’s extremely talented and an excellent performer. Hetfields just as much to blame as Lars but Hetfields an undeniable genius, Lars is mediocre at best. I can forgive bad business when there’s talent. Clown only cares about monetizing.
@@Meangenehimself So you're ok with talented musicians who f over their band mates and who sell out? That's strange to me.
Blame the clown for everything that went wrong with this band.
Bro just get to the point 💀
They want the items so THEY can make money on them. Sad.
Joey was fired due to the disease he had and Joey himself said he lost power in his legs, therefore he could no longer play the songs!!
He was also a raging addict that wouldn't get help but whatevs brah. We can love and honor Joey forever for what he was, the greatest drummer of all time and the powerhouse of Slipknot in its best years, without making him out to be a sinless martyr with no demons.
Joey was fired for heroin addiction. My ex-girlfriend is from Des Moines and knew the band personally.
Yeah bands don't give a f××k. Look at pantera sure
Didn't he was the guy walking around looking like a Catholic Jesus
you mean wearing a crown of thorns mask?
Now his family gives a shit, his ex girlfriend took care of him for years and paid his bills while he self distrusted in his deep depression
😩
JOEY AND PAUL made that band what it was.
lmfao what?????
But what does Corey Taylor think about this? 🤔
Their brotherhood is but a gimmick. This band has become just a business model.
Every major metal band is a buisness. If the music is still good that’s the number one most important thing.
@@romaretaylor9953 But some bands are able to keep their integrity
So this video is three days old and clown in that interview that is coming out today on the same channel he talks about Joey as if he was in the band up until the day he died. And just pretends like that’s why Joey isn’t in the band anymore if Joey was alive that he would still be here. Clown, you’re not even a real musician. Why they elect to split the profits with a guy that does somersaults on stage is beyond me, but you guys fired him and then kept his stuff to make a buck off it. This is terrible 🤣
Y’all need to stop acting like clown literally doesn’t do anything and never did as a longtime fan it’s CRINGWROTHY, Shawn is a drummer and was the original drummer for slipknot before Joey came in and then HE came up Witt the idea for the extra percussion, HE also was the first one to wear a mask sparking the image growth, he directs their videos directed the album artwork and most assuredly contributed to the music/writing. Paul himself said without Shawn there wouldn’t be a slipknot.
@@romaretaylor9953 so he was the original drummer, but then Joey came along and Joey was better so clown was just going to have a big drum that he would beat on stage in between somersaults? Look, I’m not the world biggest slipknot fan, I was a fan, but they were never like my favorite band. But apparently many other diehard fans like yourself seem to blame him for the reason slipknot isn’t respected like they used to be anymore. I mean, kind of look at what you said. He was the original drummer and then Joey came along and it sounds like he would just feel that “extra percussion “ part out and he was the first to wear a mask. I’m sorry that just doesn’t sound like a lot. he wasn’t good enough to be the main drummer so he decided to become the mascot?
Joeys family still wanting to make money off his name as well. Um?
People fight over the dumbest shit
Clown is the downfall for Slipknot. I assume Slîpknot is just a cashcow nowadays. The members are not friends anymore and as we all know, corey is not even that interested in Slipknot, then he was in the earlier years
Corey is the worst type of person, they're probably all the same, like hollywood celebs
@@otallonothere’s nothing Hollywood about Corey 😂 so he likes to talk big whoop every lead singer has that “problem” to an extent, your just mad he’s not the same alchoholic nut he was back in 2001
@@romaretaylor9953Corey was addicted to meth as well.
@@sugarsorehow the fuck do you know?
@romaretaylor9953 My ex-girlfriend is from Des Moines and knew the band personally. She had Corey's phone number.
God you are long winded as hell dude
It's only a five minute video...
Clown and corey killed Joey. They planned this all along. Joey,Craig and Paul didn't want to sell out.
They planned this all along?????? First of all Paul died 11 years before Joey did and Craig retired on his own volition literally a year ago. People have been calling slipknot sellouts since 2004 when vol 3 came out if they wanted to “keep it raw” than they would’ve ended it all after 2001. How you gonna blame other people for someone’s substance issues?
Just a reminder that Joey had transverse myelitis, and LEFT the band because of his health. I loved Joey too, but the salty butthurt all in the comments is pathetic.
Joey was fired for heroin addiction.
