    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.

    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

    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

    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.

    Cake, and grief counseling, will be available at the conclusion of the test

    i do not think it is appropriate to make a joke in relation to how a man has just died.
    am i being clear enough for you?

    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.
