Because its a very high chance

Ah a sad day indeed. Can't say I was a huge fan of Slipknot (although did like the lead singer's other band, Stone Sour) but they had quite a fanbase and made some good songs. Although some might not agree, there were definitely important in the genre of nu-metal. And this man was one of the original members of the band.

Because he's had a history of drug abuse I would imagine.

I disagree that this particular death is bad for metal, but it's still sad. Especially with him having a baby on the way.

I guess it's perspective. To me a founding member of Slipknot (who I think are a very under rated band) dying is fairly big news.



I can't say I am sorry. Metalcore and screamo makes me vomit.

My condolences to his family anyway.

Isn't the drummer meant to die first?

We are trying to think outside the box.” - Satoru Iwata - This is why corporate multinationals will never truly understand, or risk doing, what Nintendo does.

Slipknot wasn't either of those  they were NU-metal.(which I personally do not like)

Drugs or suicide = another celebrity death. Another one bites the dust!!!

BTW: I hated Slip Knot. They are an emo metal aka death metal. Listening to their music will give you a head ache.

Slipknot are in no way emo.

Slipknot wasn't death metal either.
