He's really living up to his name.

Don't get me wrong I enjoy slipknot but man over the years you really learn that it's only about two people and there no brotherhood or loyalty

[EonSlumber]

He was up for a new contract and they are finally out of roadrunner. Get two more cheap guys and the remaining founders get set. For one album.

[mitchtavio]

I love Slipknot but man I think Corey and Clown have some serious ego issues or something. How many members have gotten the boot?

[robpace]

the get rid of the best part of slipknot the drummers, and keep the trash, clown is the worst

[chroylikesfish]

Slipknot is more of a product than a band IMO. Clown and Corey are the CEO's where everyone else is just expendable temp employees

[Dan-bpbb]

"Tearing themselves apart from the things that make them hurt"

[TIAMATPW]

Jay will be fine, Slipknot will be fine. Interesting to see whats happening next

[metalmacabre]

The only thing about clown thats he got right was his name.

[manalone]

As a fan of the knot. It's weird how clown and Taylor are the only ones who get to talk about music and moves of the band, the other guys only do interviews about their guitar set ups and riffs lol it's sad

[SpacePirate]

Slipknot should just call it quits. They've kicked out so many good musicians and they new music sucks. There just running on fumes at this point.

[alexiemery]

like all bands they eventually sell their soul's it's so sad to see how they forgot what slipknot started as 😢

[eddiearchuleta]

Clown is the only one who wouldn’t be needed or missed a waste of space in the band

[ObiTheKenobi]

Is clown a necessary element to the band? Seriously…get rid of him and hold on to the phenomenal drummers you guys have acquired over the years. Eloy, my dude, congrats on being in the band. If I were you, I’d save a BIG chunk of those Slipknot checks, because it’s only. Matter of time before they fire you too.

[oliverjackson]

we already know Jay was fired, we want to know what the creative differences were.

[blastbuabbas]

This band has probably reached its lowest point.
no real friends
There is only a lease agreement and a probationary period.
Guitarists Mick and Jim never quit.
More importantly, what's the point of keeping the clowns in the band? Clearly trash.

[Igor-uguo]

I'm wondering if they fired him by email.

[spike]

Slipknot will be fine….with bats and beer kegs

[rubenramirez]

Clown should have been terminated as well I don’t see him doing much for the band neither

[dankirk]

"Percussionist" he's a pos who had a good idea for a band and no talent to be in said band lmfao
