Slip Knot Bassist Dead at 38 by Helen Bach

Paul Grey bassist for shock rock band Slipknot was found dead in his hotel room yesterday morning. Grey was 38.

Known as Pig #2 think what you will about the masked man he did have talent. Grey also also contributed to Drop Dead, Gorgeous’ 2007 album, Worse Than A Fairy Tale and Reggie And The Full Effect’s 2008 album, Last Stop: Crappy Town.

I was never a Slipknot fan, though I must respect any band that’s willing to make an ass of themselves just to get attention. But they got it and they were good.

Its sad to hear of any death. That of a 38yr old with a pretty cool career is just as tough. I presume an autopsy will be done. I anticipate not liking the findings. Rest in Peace.

Prayers for the Pig and his family and fans.
