May 24, 2011 A full year has gone past since Slipknot bassist Paul Gray was found dead in his hotel room in Iowa. A medical examiner ruled that he died of an accidental overdose of morphine and fentany (a synthetic form of morphine
May 4, 2011 Hearing the news of Rob directing a Woolite commercial disgusts me! To me that is the ultimate sellout move. Mr Zombie has always struck me as the kind of guy that doesn't do that he doesn't believe in or personally endorse.

If you ask the guys in the band about their future you won't get a consistent answer either. Drummer Joey Jordison has been the most vocal about the band staying together and recording new material. I guess only time will tell. Either way Slipknot is scheduled to play a handful of shows, and from what Joey is now saying they are gonna RIP!! Here is the story I got from Pulse Of Radio.
December 3, 2010 I have been trying to decipher what the hell is going on with Slipknot ever since they lost Paul Gray earlier this year. Ever since his death the band has been hesitant to give a statement on the bands future, and to some extent I can understand that.
