Tyler Gadzinski Posted May 24, 2010 Share Posted May 24, 2010 This morning Paul Gray, Bassist, songwriter and founding member of the ever-so-popular Metal/Nu-Metal band Slipknot was found dead in his Hotel room at 10am today. As a big fan of Slipknot this really sucks.. he was such a good bassist, hopefully they can pull together and still kick some major ass. RIP Paul 1972-2010 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RIP Paul 1972-2010 You know, as popular as I know these guys are, they are one of the many holes in my metal knowledge. Have never heard note 1 by these guys. Thing that grabs me though is those dates. Between him and Jose Lima passing it really makes me feel old. RIP dude and my condolences to all the Slipknot fans out there.

Timber Posted May 25, 2010 Share Posted May 25, 2010 I saw them at Ozzfest long long ago. They headlined the second stage and they were awesome. I'm glad i got a chance to see them. It's a sad thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eayragt Posted May 25, 2010 Share Posted May 25, 2010 Suprisingly versatile band. Can make a hell of a lot of noise putting on a spectacular show, and then can produce some great slower tracks like Vermillion and Snuff. RIP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zoloftjunkie Posted May 25, 2010 Share Posted May 25, 2010 Man this is very sad news indeed. I was lucky enough to see them when they were still doing smaller venues. They opened up for Coal Chamber that night and when Chamber went on I went out by the busses and hung out with Slipknot Thoughts go out to his friends and family and hope he finds peace in the afterlife.
