Renton 22437 Posted May 25, 2010 Share Posted May 25, 2010 Fairly ignorant about Slipknot but obviously they have some fans so I will avoid the obvious jokes re: the title. RIP number 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy Face 29 Posted May 25, 2010 Author Share Posted May 25, 2010 I was canny dismissive of Slipknot until I saw them live. Totally blew me away. Incredible energy and tight as fuck. Still haven't listened to a whole album after the first one like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JonGoodwyn 1 Posted May 25, 2010 Share Posted May 25, 2010 Apparently he was one of the main writters, and one of the others was close to quitting anyway, so it might well spell the end for them, as they'd previously said quite a lot that they wouldn't want to carry on if one of them left. Can't say i'd be too upset if they were to split up, though. But as HF said they put on a good live show. RIP, his wife had another kid on the way as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
