Just heard it there. I wasn't massively into Slipknot, mainly just a few songs that I listen to but that's pretty **** news. Only 38.

Angron

I'll fondly remember him from his Anal Blast days.

dregin

Utterly **** buzz.

Crosswalk

I was a HUGE Slipknot fan when I was younger and I still listen to their older stuff now and again. I'm playing their self-titled album as I type. R.I.P

lord lucan

Never been a Slipknot fan but f*** me,38 is way too young. Been a strange year in metal thus far.:(

Jako8

Not a big slipknot fan but this is terrible.

RIP man.

I can't believe it... In only a short time Dio dies and now Paul
I accepted Dio fairly quickly because he was quite old and had been ill. But this is going to take a while to hit home. I'm completely shocked. Wonder what the other guys will do

DazMarz

Not a big 'knot fan by any means, but damn... only 38. Very sad, I have to say. R.I.P.

Anna Molly

Such a Slipknot fan, especially as a kid, this is sad

Overheal

I still listen to some of his tracks once in a while. Sh!tty day man.

Lesson: dont fall asleep with your mask on

Xinkai

Slipknot were my 1st gig when i was 15 years old, still up there in my top 5 gigs today, now we'll never get to see the electricity they create as the original line up again...

Catari Jaguar

one would have to question the appropriateness of this statement given the fact that the man has just passed away ffs.
at least give it a few days before throwing up feeble attempts at humour yeah?

anyways, was a big fan of the Knot from '99 onwards, seen them live for my 21st over in Cardiff 5 years ago now, always thought he was a daycent bassist.

R.I.P. Paul Gray,
thank you for the sounds.

Hardly feeble, when has appropriateness and Slipknot ever come together. I like to think Paul had a sense of humour.

I'd hope so, considering he was in Anal Blast for a while

That's shocking. Never that into them apart form a few songs, but they were always on back in my Kerrang listening days so I remember a lot of their stuff from my formative years of getting into metal.

But People = ****, no?

Are you really playing PC police with a member of Slipknot?

i do not think it is appropriate to make a joke in relation to how a man has just died.

Given the band and person I think it was.

i said nothing in relation to the band, i said i do not think it is appropriate to mock a persons death.

I didnt exactly mock his death, I made a joke in the vain of the band. I dont even know the circumstances of his death, though it would be pretty easy to guess given his criminal record.

Furious-Red

Finally got to see them at Rock Im Park last year and they were a great way to end a great festival. RIP

by this you refer to the mask yes? the same mask that you use to mock (and i say is inappropriate) how the man died?

papa.

RIP Paul. Man, First Ronnie James Dio and now Paul:(

Sad news. Saw them for the first time about 18 months ago and it was bloody awesome. A talented member of a very talented band.

RIP

Contessa Raven

Wow! I am a HUGE Slipknot fan! I'm torn up by this news. It's so s**t! His poor wife and their baby.

The metal world has lost far too many legends this year! :mad:

RayCon

Wow ... thats shockingly young ... liked the odd Slipknot song - R.I.P.

galwayrush

One of the best gig's I've ever attended, except the abuse of the Lost Prophets, who referred to the "coin throwing abuse of the Irish audience" as the worst they have ever received in their career.

I felt sorry for them that day. If someone didn't like that music they could have left.

Very sad. He was one of the main creative forces behind the band too. And with his wife pregnant it's even worse. Saw them live twice, as a man who uses Warwick basses I was always gonne be a fan but he was a talented guy with a very nice approach to heavy metal bass playing.

R.I.P.

R.I.P Paul Grey:'(

Nailz

RIP Paul Gray, have been a Slipknot fan for quite an amount of time now, great band, especially back in the Slipknot & IOWA days, and as a lefty bassist his death hits close to home. He'll be missed , impossible to imagine SlipKnoT without him. #2 [Pig] RIP again.

devildriver

RIP. Too many losses in the music world these last few weeks.

Anna Molly

I still cannot believe that he is dead!:(

I've been listening to them since I was like 12, feel like I've lost a bit of myself. God bless his families.
