Yesterday, Slipknot announced their parting ways with drummer Jay Weinberg in a statement on the band’s official website.
The post reads:
“We would like to thank Jay Weinberg for his dedication and passion over the past ten years. No one can ever replace Joey Jordison’s original sound, style or energy, but Jay honored Joey’s parts and contributed to the last three albums and we, the band, and the fans appreciate it. But as ever, Slipknot is intent on evolving. The band has decided to make a creative decision, and to part ways with Jay. We wish Jay all the best and are very excited for what the future holds.”
Jay Weinberg has not released an official statement as yet. He joined Slipknot in 2013, after the late Joey Jordison‘s departure.
