The metal band Slipknot is just as well-known for their unique costumes and masks as they are for their music, but sadly they have also become well-known for the many tragedies that have affected the band members over the years. One member found himself in a dangerous fight with his brother, another died of an overdose after years of struggling, and one faced unspeakable tragedy when his daughter died in 2019. In spite of this, the band has managed to work through the losses they’ve suffered and continued to record. Let’s take a look at the tragic real-life story of Slipknot.

  • @alexandrukozma8417
    Imagine thinking your friend died of overdose,dumping him in a trashcan and seeing him become the singer of one of the best metal bands in the world

    when i was about 6 years old, me and my dad ran into cory taylor. the only thing i can remember from it was him giving me a high five :,)
  • @miktee7854
    I'm a 60 year old and loved metal my whole life and I'd much prefer to die in a moshpit than spend my last 10 years in a nursing home being spoon-fed. Power to you bro RIP
  • @greenghoul157
    I wish there wasn't a stigma against metalheads as being violent and satanic, it's always been my go to music genre and I'd never hurt a soul
  • @deathislegend2477
    Once, Slipknot hurt themselves. Now, they hurt others with their headbangers. RIP all necks.
  • @Arothgar
    the track (515) is Sid crying. He wasnt suppose to be in the studio that day as his Grandfather had died the night previous. He came into the studio to vent the pain.
  • @deegegaming7911
    Love how Craig's the only one without a story, he's just there admist all the chaos
  • @reeceypc
    I was in the pit during that show at Tinley Park IL earlier this year. I remember seeing the older man being carried out. I never knew that he passed away, I remember seeing him before and during the show. RIP
  • @taxevader6958
    Their music is hella dark, but if you actually go into extremely deep into the band. It's quite wholesome how much they care about each other and their fans.
  • @ebkjer556
    he don’t care that he got left in a trash can by his bros?
  • @momjeanzz
    "the clown lived to rock another day" ,,, me.
  • @andreascollet9644
    Cory Taylor’s son, Griffin, goes to the same high school as I do. He screams music in the hall and brings 2-liters of Coke to the class we have together. Weirdest kid I’ve ever met.
  • @Love-zq1mg
    Is Everyone gonna ignore the 62 yr old who was in the mosh pit and died after taking a hit
  • @DrummerJake-cm5ir
    So ridiculous how they blame music on things people do, does a spoon make you fat?
  • @almostpainful8173
    The guy that died in 2019 was in the grass seats, not down in the pit. He did fall down, but it is unclear wether he “took a hit” from someone or not. Took security/medical help 35 minutes to get to him. I was at the concert.
  • @JuanTwoThreeeeeee
    The Iowa album intro (515) was only Sid, it was his live reaction to his grandfather passing away.
  • @clinical_caliber
    as a medical worker, i always arrive at the hospital blasting metal. it’s literally my calm down before a soon to be stressful day at work. especially during these times…
