There has been quite an uproar in the metal community following Eloy Casagrande’s departure from Sepultura just days before the start of the band’s 18-month-long farewell tour. It is rumored that Eloy will be the man behind the drums for Slipknot. Sepultura, on the other hand, has welcomed one of the biggest drum sensations of the past two years, Greyson Nekrutman, who has vacated his position in Suicidal Tendencies….
Enter Jay Weinberg, who fell out with Slipknot a few months ago. Well, on this merry-go-round of positions and vacancies Jay has just joined the Suicidal Tendencies lineup!

Yesterday, the artist posted the following statement (also reposted by Suicidal Tendencies) on his social media:
“When I think of the culture and community of heavy music that I’ve loved and considered my creative home for 20 years, I think of SUICIDAL TENDENCIES: a foundational pillar and source of inspiration ever since I fell in love with punk, metal, and hardcore. Having toured and played shows together all over the world, I’ve been so fortunate to become friends with my musical heroes who have been a part of this band’s incredible history. It’s an absolute honor and privilege to play with Suicidal Tendencies, and I can’t wait to start this incredibly exciting new chapter in just one week! See you all in the pit!“
