“Write music worthy of Eloy’s drumming” wow
Jim knows what they have in Eloy and it shows... I cannot wait to hear and see what they bring when they all come together.
Yes ! thank you
Looking back i feel that Jay's lack of creativity in the studio really hindered Slipknot. I can't think of any iconic "holy fuck" moments from any of the albums he's put out which has always been a staple of slipknots sound thanks to Joey.
@Ayecie. To be fair... I think Jay was such a Joey fan, he was trying to be Joey. What was the last "Holy Fuck" moment that came from Joey in Slipknot? Honestly, I don't remember a single one after Iowa.
Yeeeah! You said it all!
Thats a true south american victory ! Cheers for my brazilian brothers from colombia 🇨🇴🇧🇷
We bring a bit of colombia with us on it also man! Special moment for all of us! 🙏🙌
C’mon man…this not a fking sport, this is supposed to be art. Where you see victory for South Americans there’s just awesomeness for music fans all over the world
@@nachomagallanico Art wins with Eloy joining, and we brazilians and our hermanos also win.
@@sauloAndrioli I don’t know if anyone wins here, unless we’re talking about slipknot or Eloy, at the end of the day Slipknot levelled up big time with eloy joining, and he got the place I dupossed he always dreamed of. The words from Jim speak tons about the redoect, pleasure and honour the band feels having him behind the kit. “ I have to write music worthy of Elroy’s drumming” that’s huge
@@nachomagallanico Brazilians are super nationalistic and it shows here.
Love the passion of the Brazilian people, they are super proud of their boy. So good also to hear Jim say how lucky Slipknot are to have him too, he's the best metal drummer in the world imo
Along with Mario Duplantier from gojira
For the first time since Iowa im super interested in Slipknot again.
Same. Eloy has something *special* that has suddenly made Slipknot sound like a new band ... a practiced, world-class band.
same here
Nothing like hearing Jim flower Eloy by saying hes a world class drummer. Just brings so much hope to something that has been so good for so long, how does this even come about !
Yeah, Jay was a "world class drummer" too. Best metal drummer 2023 actually. And look where it led him... I feel like they are starting to act as if Jay never existed in the first place, and was the cause of their lack of inspiration for a whole decade, which is wrong. I mean, they kicked out of the band so many original members, and dressing out in their original jumpsuit won't fool any real slipknot fan, that is they fucked up with Joey, did the same to Jay, and may very well do the same to Eloy in 5, 6, 10 years, should he stay for so long, which I hope he does.
@@TheRealDemonKlyd Jay is amazing, dont get me wrong, but a big reason he was voted for best metal drummer was due to his affiliation in Slipknot. That status made it easier for him to win.
@@TheRealDemonKlyd
Jay won a popularity contest. Eloy's being winning legit competitions and being acknowledged since he was kid.
@@michaelcordero5588
Legit
@@TheRealDemonKlydinstead of coming on a TH-cam video talking shit do some research have you ever thought Jay left because he brought absolutely fuck all new to the band just wanted to keep acting like Joey. Eloy is a world apart from Jay, Jay is a good drummer but sorry eloy is miles ahead. He won his first drum contest at the age of 13 then again at 14 was a lead drummer for a massive band at the age of 19! Stop being a but hurt and move with the times or go listen to Taylor swift
It’s good to hear some optimism from Jim.
their next string of albums will be insane with eloy is in the mix he will elevate their sound like it did for sepultura that quadra album is so good.
Agree, AND Eloy is even better now (if that’s possible lol) than he was then! Dude has passion
@@grim..sentinel9500 for sure.....I mean, imagine getting to play for your fallen heroes band.... like many of us, Joey was God to eloy growing up.
Eloy will move from them and be the first member to walk away on his terms! 2 albums max.
It’s crazy to see that Eloy joining the band is actually putting some sort of pressure on Slipknot to raise the bar.
"It was a little bit difficult."
- Jim Root, Slipknot, 2024 on Eloy's 2 minute drum loop.
Great to see and hear band mates giving it up , for their fellow band mates. It’s a hard industry, especially these days . Also great to see talented musicians get into a spot well deserved.
Jay and Eloy are like the two best drummers to honor Joey's legacy. While I miss Jay and Joey, Eloy is gonna crush this thing man.
jay kinda played a little to fast. Faster aint always better. Eloy bringing the tempo down, helps corey alot to. Showing his skills.
@@mxt217 I like when Slipknot plays faster. Especially Psychosocial. Sounds way better to me personally.
@@VileSinner666 ya but makes it harder to sing and pronounce words. Especially slipknot, corey is in gear 6 the entire time. It helps out alot and sounds better to me. Playing like who joey on the stufio records
Jay wrote some pretty boring arrangements as far as Slipknot standards go
@glumexamination7401 I dunno man, Skeptic, Nomadic, Hive Mind, and Dying Song have some pretty wild drum parts.
ELOY THE KING!
Donated money to no kill shelters?! Dude I’m definitely a slipknot fan now🤝
Yeahhhh!!!!!!! I was just talking about huge that is, animals deserve so much better!! Good job slipknot!
Joey (RIP) was a huge supporter of no kill shelters in IOWA. He truly was amazing. I'm glad that Slipknot are following along.
Jim "You know" Root.
"like" you're right
undertakers son haha
Lol
You know what he's saying 😏
BEST DRUMMER IN THE WORLD PERIOD!! HES SOOOO F.N..BAD ASS!!EXTREMELY TECHNICAL AT TIMES! NO OFFENSE BUT "ELOY CASAGRANDE BLOWS AWAY JOEY & JAY OUT THE WATER"!! ELOY IS ON A VERY HARD PROFESSIONAL LEVEL"!! HIS SHIT IS HARD TO PLAY AT TIMES! SUPER HARD! HES GOING TO MAKE SLIPKNOT WAAAY BETTER IN ALL WAYS!!!
So excited to see what comes from this! Been chanting Get Eloy! ever since heading about Jay! Seen Slipknot 5x now 3 Joey (RIP) And 2 Jay. Can't WAIT for 1 Eloy show and more after!
funny how the quality of the albums directly correlates to Jim's statement about the band writing together and separately.
Primeira vez que vejo alguém da banda se pronunciando sobre a chegada do Eloy, momento grandioso para os dois lados, vida longa "mother fuckers"!!!
Jim is such a legend. I love how open he is with people on the details of things. Such a good dude
I know a lot of people are bummed about Jay being gone, and like everybody else, I of course miss Joey... But at the end of the day, this is the best case scenario. Eloy is probably the best drummer on the planet right now, and I'm just so happy that he got that gig because he just seems to be such a great dude, worthy of the honor. But personality aside, the guy is just a beast. SO much power, finesse, and an almost mechanical like timing. The dude's a human metronome. This is the best I've heard some of these older songs sound...I think Eloy may even be technically better than Joey was. I know a lot of people will see that as heresy... But, I truly believe it.
Joey is a huge influence on Eloy, it takes a legendary drummer to inspire another legendary drummer.
To be clear, I wasn't trying to be disrespectful to Joey at all... I just really feel like Eloy is the right guy for the job. Joey was of course a phenom... brought a WHOLE new style to metal. But, I believe Eloy is the equivalent to that of this generation. And the guy's ability just cannot be overstated.
ITs not heresy, anyone who plays ANY instrument can tell Eloy is WAY better than Joey, theres no comparison really.
As a drummer of 30 years I can safely say that Eloy is better than Joey (in my opinion). Joey was revered because he was so revolutionary and influential but he was never technically even in the top 10. Just like most groundbreaking musicians, they build something new using inspiration from their own idols and musical heroes and thats what Joey did; inspired by the metal bands in his youth (i.e. Slayer, Metalica, Anthrax, Pantera, etc etc) and developing his own style/sound for HIS generation and now his legacy lasts on forever in the pantheon of metal gods like the guys that originally inspired him.
Don't get me wrong either, Joey still had some amazing chops and stamina but Eloy is, as Jim said in the video, a _world class_ drummer... i.e. probably the best in his genre right now (and we've all seen how hard he's worked for it).
As for Jay Weinberg... nothing personal but lets just take note of the difference in reaction to Eloys first gig and being announced compared to Jays and I think nothing more needs to be said. There's a reason why everyones losing their mind over Eloy and didn't with Jay.
Jay, I'm sure was a good guy, I'm a new fan due to ELOY. This guy is exciting to watch, total animal .
Great interview. Jim has always seemed like one of the nicest, most genuine people in the business. He's one of the greats. It really means a lot to get that kind of praise and thankfulness from him. Can't wait to hear what is created from the new setup.
I'm a musician, I appreciate all styles and with all due respect to Jay Weinberg but the reaction of musicians and the public when Eloy's solos come is indescribable, if you watch videos of both of them in their debuts you will see the difference.
About Joey, he introduced a new style to metal and this put him in a different place, Eloy used this as inspiration and together with his other experiences, both in metal and Brazilian music he evolved to a higher level!
(In my humble opinion)
Sounds like Jim is saying slipknot is gonna get the heavy back
what does that mean?
@@lyricboss115 Slipknot/Iowa-style albums. If you don't get it beyond what I've said then you're beyond help.
They already have, by watching the shows that have made it on TH-cam videos. It reminds me of seeing them live with Paul and Joey
@@MrShenron89the albums are time-capsules of themselves for who they are at that moment. Each album is their own entity and never will repeat nor be matched. It is dumb to keep asking to get the same album again, Jim Root has said himself it bothers him that people keep asking for that when people don't even understand how this works
Eloy is a BEAST , Im so hyped for this new Era for Slipknot\,,/
"Ya know" - Jim Root
OMG THANK YOU FOR SUPPORTING SHELTERS. This is crazy for me as a slipknot fan and crazy animal person. My goal is to make it so big in music where I can have the opportunity to give away money to shelters and animals in need. I hate people, I want all my money going to the innocent animals out there. If you’re seeing this, go to your shelter and get a kittie…or a pittie lol they are all so sweet.
All this nationalism by Brazilians and even south americans has something close to an explanation.
It's not normal for Brazilian (and South American in general) artists to be successful worldwide, even when they're fking awesomem. Being awesome is not enough. It's a victory for us that someone from here actually got it.
Someone from the USA or Europe wouldn't understand.
We feel that in minimal ways. From even memes originated here, to voice actors/actors making part of big movies; like Wagnenr Moura as Death in puss in boots. I can't explain, it's just a unique sense of community; by the "disadvantaged".
I as a Polish person totally get that, Poles are simillar to you in that manner
Someone needs to put together a “ya know?” Jim Root compilation video 🤣
Taking my 10 year old daughter to see them Sunday at Sonic Temple. We can't wait!
W parent
Nice! Don't forget the earpro.
Makes me wanna come see y'all again! Can't wait. Thanks Jim! 👏
Waa joeys drum sticks in my eyes looked like magician sticks doing a ballett I never saw anyone hit the drums like that heavenly ever🎉😊
I love seeing this excitement in Jim so much that it excites me for music again
We're proud of Eloy, heck, I'm proud since I saw him on Modern Drum Festival decades ago.
And we are happy to see how much respect he has rightfully earned with the band and we can't wait for shows and new albums!
Jim is ny most fav. Member... he looks like so chill nerdy dude vut he is the guitar maniac from Iowa
Jay did a very admirable job for a decade .
He was awesome, Eloy looks goofy in that mask. Jay looked cool af
Most people are so ungratefull, and suddenly half of the slipknot fans are drummers, and drummer experts,Jay was a hardcore/punk drummer, and he did evolve overtime, and did a solid job, and had some rad songs, Eloy is a better drummer indeed, but there are a lot of names out there atm that are as good or better than Eloy.
@@Tearpt I know right is funny to see how snakey people are who basically don't have a clue what there talking about Jay in great drummer end and did well in all the albums he did but Eloy is just next level hard hitting beast
Agreed. Slipknot “fans” freaked out over AHIG being their best since the early days! How quick they forget…
@@AarosConcertstoo bad jay was ass
eloy is the closest thing they have to joey
Their first show in Brasil better be filmed. Probably going to be HUGE! Eloy rules!
Metalheads are nice people and down to earth. People don't seem to understand that .
Awesome that Jim did this. Thanks.
Você vê claramente que o Jim e a Banda estão MEGA empolgados em ter o Eloy na banda! O cara é literalmente incrível em se tratando de bateria. Chega da pra sentir que o Jim ficou meio "intimidado" com as habilidades do menino Eloy kkkkkk. Foi muito massa quando ele disse que ver a paixão que o Eloy tem pela bateria, o fez reacender esse desejo de tocar melhor e estar mais presente com o seu instrumento. Com certeza o novo disco tem tudo pra ser um dos melhores em MUITOS anos. Por onde o Eloy passa ele faz uma revolução no som da banda. E obviamente, no Slipknot não sera diferente! Foi muito bacana ver esse depoimento do James sobre os acontecimentos mais recentes na banda. Todo sucesso do mundo pro Eloy e Slipknot!
interessante que na entrevista do Eloy, ele diz q o Slipknot entrou em contato primeiro. E aqui o Jim fala q o Eloy que fez o primeiro contato rsrsrsrs.
@@blacksheepbr66rapaz tive a mesma impressão.... mas enfim vida que segue. Feliz por ver Eloy na banda.
Percebi a mesma coisa KKK @@blacksheepbr66
I just saw slipknot last night at Rockville, my body is so fucking sore but it was worth it
great interview thank you guys
Wow, im so happy for hearing what jim had to say. Future looks very promising
Eloy monster Br...🇧🇷🤘🤘
Crazy how much of a difference there is now. It feels like the power that’s been missing and that we’ve been all wanting. I loved WANYK and just imo I thought TESF was great but lacked punch and aggression. Jay is great and tho i appreciate his work, now I realize I never truly knew what was missing.
Can’t wait to hear new Slipknot music. I’m very excited.
If you want the nicest people around you go to any metal show. Yes, we may look strange in tattoos and leather and earrings and whatnot, but if you’re in need of help we’ll stand as one.
🤘🏻🇸🇪🤘🏻
Jim is such a cool dude
What adds to the magical regime of slipknots is all you've wrote prior and never used because now you have the rock and the metal works that turn you s to heroic beings turning rock and metal to heavy magical moments invisible hero. Sounds ever muah 😘🎉
Lots of really good people from Brazil and Japan in hard rock and metal. its so good to see.
Other places too.
I don't think these guys are prepared for their first shows in Brazil with Eloy. Those crowds are going to be insane
Luv this
Even the band seems to agree that Eloy didn’t join Slipknot, Slipknot joined Eloy.
Nice to see they acknowledge how talented Eloy really is. World Class Elite Drummer. New music is going to be interesting, hope they take their time despite wanting to get it ASAP.
wow, some great comments about Eloy the King man. love this new drummer.
I kinda like how they keep changing drummers it kinda proves that nobody is joey and never will be so it's like them constantly changing to really explore their creativity like joey would
Dumbest shit take ever
Jim's a cool dude.
With Sepultura I see it as the end of a cycle in which Eloy was the key to everything, Sepultura's last 2 albums were really very good and this goes mainly through Eloy's drums, Eloy's preparation for metal music was meticulous well oriented, the guy took classes with Aquiles Priester who is one of the best and was in charge of Angra's drumsticks, then Eloy is invited to play in André Matos' solo band, André Matos being one of the best musicians in his genre of metal and finally the preparation with Sepultura, a legendary band with worldwide repercussion where Eloy was able to increase the level, I believe we will see Eloy's peak in Slipknot, and it is strange to see how the ties intertwine throughout history, Slipknot which was a band influenced by Sepultura in the 90s, now receives from Sepultura the energy necessary to continue.
I like how no one is talking about Craig's replacement. You know... the OG member who randomly left the band too this past year.
Craig like the synth guy??
Edit: just googled it, no idea how I didn't hear about this until now 😢
It’s fucked how Jay is just an after thought.
Slipknot wouldn’t be who they are currently without Jay. He stepped in to fill fucking MASSIVE shoes…imagine coming into a band you grew up idolizing, after their drummer died.
Jay did that. And fucking killed it.
I’m all for this guys success and shot. But the fact that Jay is just kinda tossed under the rug is incredibly upsetting.
For us drummers anyway.
@@Xeroforte What does that have to do with anything I said? Lol
I love the mousemat (?) or whatever that is in front of Jim. It's the carpet pattern from "The Shining"!
Yes! Now we won the world cup!
It's not hard to understand that Eloy's drumming is on another level than Slipknot's overall vibe. Hopefully they will write "harder" music without sacrificing the essence of Slipknot.
Respeito máximo 🖤
wait, Eloy said that he was first contacted by Slipknot's manager :P Man, he prolly just told on him. I bet he would have liked to keep it that way for Sepultura. "hey, they contacted me first, couldn't refuse" , rather than "I was planning to not take part in the tour from the start".
Dude, no one is gonna judge Eloy for taking the throne in Slipknot. Allegedly his drum hero's seat. Especially not his brothers in Sepultura. Im sure they threw him a celebration. Dream job.
@FantasySportsZen I guess you didn't read their announcement. There was bitterness for sure. In any case, he'll yeah. Eloy has more than deserved this and has done really well to have contacted them on his own initiative
We are not your kind,-album exclusive with Eloy,----Remastered version 2024
I blared that bitch at the the redneck rave
Is that The Shinning hotel carpet mouse pad that Jim has? Dope.
I already knew this but this interview clarified for me that they just weren't feeling jays style and writing abilities. I've heard that's been a problem for years.
Slipknot covering Sepultura hits here and there would be cool. All positivereviews for Eloy Casagrande btw
WOW, Great attitude , ELOY is lucky to be with Slipknot and also other way around. BRAVO , new fan
They should release a single soon.
It’s Eloy’s band now. This was always a drummer driving band. And finally since Joey, they have a drummer again.
They had a drummer in Jay. He played Joeys parts perfectly live and helped put out three albums. Stop with the disrespect
@@Themaskplague He did not play them perfectly live, I'm afraid. Sloppy double bass drumming, constant tempo changes, among other things. It's not about respect or lack of it, it's about facts.
@@drumbeard it’s amazing how I never saw one comment about his tempo being off when he was in the band yet since Eloy joined that’s literally all I’m seeing , comments about tempo 😂😂
@@Themaskplague well, you probably never looked well enough, I've been saying this ever since Jay joined the band.
@@Themaskplaguejay wasn’t it lmao
How good is that Overlook Hotel carpet at Jims
There you have it people 2:17
Nothing else to be said
Slipknot shows me what it's like to turn life to !magical reality and so masonically epic wow like inventing wheels and cars to go round a d round ever 🎉
I have a theory where Jim is the one who pushed heavily and was a main force in dismissing Jay and pushed heavily for Eloy. From everything Ive seen and heard from Jim he sounds like one of the most vocal about something needing to change and the idea of possibly replacing Jay before the next cycle of the band started up. He mentions the replacement of the drummer not happening at a better time.
No hate and if true in any way everyone has been respectful. But i can also say from hearing Jay fumble quality and the power needed over an extended period of time, especially with how much video and recordings there are from the last tour which show an inability for in my opinion quality to be kept up to a standard the band had to of known this before any of us and the frustration from it seems to show with Jim more than anyone. i think they knew Jay would be fired once the new creativity and writing new music needed to be started. the 25th anniversary happened to be that. without the constant touring and a need for Jays experience to just fill that seat. i would guess and not be surprised if Jay was let go well before this if they took a break for new music to be written.
Jim seems reinvigorated and taking the lead in championing Eloy and the skills he is bringing so far.
I am not comparing the drummers Eliot is just being him and not jay or Joe they all are at different levels but this man is something different definitely great for all of them they sound incredible
Proof that they are gonna pull some pure brutal insanity next album. But also beautiful stuff cause that unreleased album whenever tf it drops
Eloy definitely the best metal drummer 🔥🔥🔥
LIT 2024 $
Eloy is excited being in the band that instead of sending jim a song he sent him a fvckin drum solos 🤣 damn if they release an album nxt year then im so can't wait!
Why the subtitles?
*Joey 🤝 Jay 🤝 Eloy = Y 😎👍*
Slipknot, ST, and Sepultura drummer exchange.
6:12 if creating songs is anything like building a doctoral thesis (hear me out) I hope they don’t waste time trying to fix sub-par music. One of the most time-wasting mistakes I made was to try and fix passages of shitty text, just because I’d invested time in writing them. It was better to start over, you’re not ‘starting from scratch’ because your subconscious will raise something again if it’s any good. btw Jim is such a gifted songwriter 😎
Politely waiting for Iowa 2.0
Jay was a great drummer for the band
IOWA IS BACK!!!
Eloy needs to teach Jim how to say his name right 😂
In fact Slipknot are the ones lucky to have Eloy.
Não tá com pouco moral não o
Mlk 🔥
i'd be crying if was jay rn lmao
Everyone butchers the pronunciation on Eloy's name.
their next album is gonna BLOW!
FODA
Eloy is a great drummer..... But stop describe him like a God
Better than World Cup lol
Just write the riffs, Eloy will find the drums for them no problem
Hes looking like Rob "jim" zombie
…and Eloy was his name oh…
Who else tried out for the spot or was Eloy basically a lock from get go?
Eloy was a lock
