Which drummer do you prefer? Joey or Jay and why?
Hard choice jay is pretty good but Joey has a special place
🤫
Joey Jordison no doubt and despite having just read it I don't even remember the name of the other one..
Joey's the best!!! He was #1 after all
Never seen the other guy strapped in rotating sideways while playing.
The saddest thing is that we’ll never see Joey playing drums for Slipknot again, it’s a real shame
He wasn't coming back either way. I don't see them getting rid of Jay. Especially considering that they have said in interviews that Jay could "carry slipknot into the next generation" (paraphrasing). It was very unfortunate what happened to Joey, and that it cost him his spot, but Jay was never gonna be replaced. RIP Joey.
@@saadesigner07 I wasn’t really thinking that they’d get rid of Jay, and honestly I think Jay is as good as drummer as Joey was now, but if he was to fall ill or took time off, etc. It would’ve been cool if Joey got a chance to play drums one last time for Slipknot, sadly not though
The same thought is making me cry every time I look at his pictures on social media.
@@ayeshashahid5250 I know, it’s really sad, but we’ll forever be able to hear him play drums and that’s something that will never go, take it easy and I hope it gets easier for you ❤️
@@squaresman1031 Thank you for the kind words
RIP JOEY JORDISON.. he's the reason why I fell in love with slipknot
He's one of the reasons I started drumming :(
Me as well😥
@@ljnuke371
He’s the reason many of us did.
Yes sir
Me too💔💜
I went to high school with Joey, he actually graduated with my older brother. He was a good kid, and I still remember him talking in art class about how much better of a drummer he was than Lars from Metallica. Then, all those years later, he fills in for Lars on a tour in Europe for several shows. Always a great accomplishment for a kid from Waukee Iowa! Best to Joey!
Rip joey
RIP Joey Jordison 🙏🏽❤️
RIP
Kid Joey: I'm a better drummer than Lars Ulrich
Anyone: Sure, kid, whatever pshhh
"Decades Later.........."
Everyone: Damn bro, Joey totally destroys Lars on drums!
Adult Joey: Told you so.
RIP Joey, what an incredible energetic drummer.
Wow just 1 week after he passed away
Fuck man, seeing this after Joeys death really hurts..
Yea man, It makes my stomach churn
@@3LZN they will def use his death as a cash grab
@@thelegend2571 have some respect you idiot, they lost one of their founding member and good friend and all you can think of is this salty sh*t. Every band or label makes more cash after someone dies, that’s just because this gets more attention from people
Ikr? Its depressing as fuck.
Man that fckin sucks. Joey was one of the best drummers ever.
Joey is, to me, the face of Slipknot. He was T H E drummer everyone my age looked up to when I was growing up.
Edit: I hate that I have to edit this... RIP Joey...
You can say that again. You've got the official point here.
stay (sic)
Yeah and he also designed the SlipKnoT text logo and Tribal-S logo.
Facts
Fam stfu
"I'm glad they're carrying on the name, because what's important is the fans" at least Joey was never blinded by fame or money, he just cared about writing and playing great music for the fans to enjoy.
Yes everybody does care for the fans. Without us fans there won't be any money. We all need money to live a stable life. To be honest.
@Ryan Meadors exactly if we’re being real his prime ended around halfway into the AHIG era. after that he got sloppier and his condition really had a negative effect on his abilities. And unfortunately transverse myelitis isn’t something that just goes away after a bit of rehab
@@romaretaylor9953 neither does losing a leg (Andrew Tkaczyk, The Ghost Inside) or losing an arm (Rick Allen, Def Leppard). If those bands were willing to go on hiatus for their drummers, them Slipknot was more than capable of doing the same for Joey
@@jareddoran6605 those bands had a 2-3 year hiatus. they already had an extended down time after Paul died, if they waited longer for Joey to get back to a decent stage their 5th release wouldn’t have seen the light of day until maybe 2016 at the earliest. The other guys were ready to go man idk what to tell ya 🤷🏾♂️ I’m sorry you can’t accept VMan and Jay after all these years but musically they have not gone downhill post AHIG. In fact coming from a longtime fan I’ll take .5 and WANYK Over AHIG 🤷🏾♂️
@@romaretaylor9953 don't put words in my mouth. I think Vman is an amazing bassist, and the best possible replacement for Paul. Kicking Joey out was an extremely douche move on their part, and Jay is nowhere near as skilled as Joey, and that's why they pretty much only make arena rock nowadays. And Jay's ego is enough to make me not like him. And they did financially screw Chris over, and Chris had every right to take legal action. And I'm sorry, but Tortilla Man is a complete joke of a replacement. His vocals are weak, and his drumming is sub par. And I question your sense of time, because the Ghost Inside was on hiatus for more like 7 years
I can’t believe Joey is gone now.
This hurts so much.
Yes Brothah! They lost a great talent . He was "Thee" Drummer . R.I.P. Joey!
Get over it.
@@buddywilliams5650 When I read your comment, I did get over it. Thank you soo much Buddy for taking the time to depart your wisdom.
@@GaranPaneos same it wasnt easy but i did
I came here because I found out that Joey has just passed away. RIP Legend
Same
The most genuine guy in Slipknot. I've always looked up to him since I was 11... The thing that most people don't realise is that he wasn't only a drummer, he was one of the main songwriters as well. The last 2 albums have been great but I can definitely sense the changes in the songwriting quality since he left. No matter how great Jay is,, Joey is the real shit.
Your right but Joey wasn’t the best songwriter after Iowa, you can like both drummers they’re both great guys who put a lot into this band.
RIP Joey
Both Joey and Paul were heavily involved in Slipknots songwriting , hence why the band isn’t as good as it was
Their last 3 albums aren't great and WANYK in particular is their worst. This band should have disbanded after Paul passed away and Joey's departure. They became everything they said they wouldn't. "We are the Nine. There is no one else. If I left the band, we'd be done. If Joey Jordison left this band, we'd be done." - Shawn Crahan (from an old Metal Hammer interview)
@@ResurrectionDreams They've become a brand
I literally started listening to Slipknot because of Joey's drumming style.
Style: unmatched.
I hate when people call him overrated when he is one of the best metal drummers of all time
@@handleyourjugs I swear to god Slipknot wouldn't even be as big as they are today without Joey. Just look at stone sour with Corey and Jim Root(former), they're not headlining any festivals.
same. i loved him in songs.. he was definitely my favorite. ill be handing out halloween candy in my slipknot uniform and with the joey mask i made. i hope people recognize me-
@@christopherchuauhang4829 stone sour were never as popular as slipknot. They didn’t care and neither did the fans
im still at a loss that joey is gone, he was so talented and now it's only preserved through his old bands songs.
He left a badass legacy with his brutal heavy music. Its one of the best ways for someone to live on and be talked about for generations to come.
I stopped listening to slipknot for allot of years due to some personal issues (don't worry . I wasn't hearing the devil) . When I started being "alive" again I returned to this band . I kinda felt their flavour was off . I never even realized joey left until he passed away . It was truly sad indeed . When me and my friend saw Joey play drums upside down we almost pissed ourselves on how epic that was . My friend even built his kit to be identical to that . This man was a true legend
I’ll never be able to forgive Slipknot for the way they treated Joey. He was the heart & soul of that band. Rest in power king. You didn’t deserve to be treated as disposable by the people who you considered family. We love you! You will never be forgotten.
That's why I haven't followed Slipknot since. As of December 2013, I was team Joey. Saw him twice with Scar The Martyr, once with Vimic, and once with Sinsaenum. Little did I know that would be the last time I'd ever get to see him play, let alone meet him. He was really lovely. His passing still hits me really hard, I guess I'm still grieving 😭
@@sarahwatkins4520 SLIPKNOT ain't the same anymore I don't know what are they doing they fired Chris man like wtf
@@salvadorrubio3703 Slipknot has just become the greedy corporation they once rallied against. Now it's all for the money and no soul.
@@bookofthedamned sad cause my trust my love for the 9 was strong It ain't the same anymore
they did the same shit to chris fehn and with they i mean clown and corey the two leaders of the band who dont think of slipknot as a family they see the other members like dumb employees and underpay them thats fking disgusting
I saw Joey drum for korn. It was absolutely insane
He is insain
I saw the footage. The song blind had never been that engaging b4.
I saw him play for Rob zombie
Saw him (and Paul) in Slipknot in 2009. Then again in 2012... not the same without him.
edit* still have the tour shirt from the 2012 show
2007 family values tour in Irvine. I was in the front. One of the greatest shows I ever been to.
We will miss Paul, we will miss Chris, But we will definitely miss Joey...
You mean definitely paul because he passed away joey and chris is still here living
@ well its joeys video.....
@@soad-slipknotsmusicandvide8270 and fool. What was stated is incorrect because the person who is dead will be more missed than the living man... God you fans can be idiots like other celebrities fans you all complain
RIP Paul
@ not really dude... Paul is missed because he was awsomen and unfortunatly passed away... But he never did much for the band (musically speaking)... Same with chris... but joey is missed because of everything he did for the band... I love Jay. He is defenetly the only person who could replase joey... But Joey brought something to slipknot (musically) that no one else could bring. Chris and Paul where like family to us maggots... but they didnt really do much for the band which is why they were easily replased... we always remeber paul because he died. We always remember chris because of his nose and stage presence... Yet we will always remeber joey for his musical abilities!!
Imagine giving your whole spirit and youth to a band throught all those years of dedication and at the final day you receieve an email saying you are out of the band ! I know joey was hurting so bad ... may he rest in peace now legend.
11:52 - His quote really hits me the most. Regardless whatever shit was thrown to him (idk by the band or management or record label or what not), and the condition that he had to go through, he clearly missed the band so much and still held them dearly. He even bears no grudge to Slipknot as a whole.
He is such a gem. He will forever be missed. Rest in peace, Champ.
He loved them and seen them as brothers and in return they didn’t feel the same only one member visited him in the hospital. Joey once said if he seen them he just wanted to give them a hug but they fired him through email and never seen him again. Fuck slipknot
That’s because Slipknot was his. He was a founding member. You can never hate your child, no matter how they treat you. He was suck a sweetheart.
@@kaisarion6668 no more Slipknot for me since their horrible treatment of Joey.
Those Slipknot dudes are crap human beings.
Guess they had to live up to their anthem.
People =shit
They were ranting about themselves.
Joey will always be "the one". PERIOD!!
YES
fr, jay is an amazing drummer but there is no replacing joey.
Fuck yeah
Slipknot to joey: "Sorry Joey, business is buisness."
Slipknot have become that which they claim to hate.
Yep, I've said this for a long time.
They are the modern day GWAR despite Corey saying that wouldn't happen. They make WAAAAAAAAY too much money now to just let it fade. So much like all the other arena rock bands, they will end up playing well past their "sell by" date and cycle in replacement members like a soulless corporation for as long as the money keeps rolling in.
Maybe coz they're old now, most of the members are in their 50s
it’s not that they’re a business, they kicked him because he couldn’t play up to par anymore, and it wouldn’t cut it
Lol in their first documentary prior to disasterpieces corey taylor had said that slipknot is a machine and it won't stop until they're dead. Paul's death should have showed that to be true.
wow, fired him by email believing his skills were hindering from drugs, instead of asking a friend are u okay, whats going on, what can we do? seriously makes me hate one of my childhood bands a little bit, RIP joey your name and talent is eternal. love u bro
FR 💯
What makes you think they didn't do that?
Fired him officially in writing. Like professionals do. Chris was let go for the same reason. The band has a policy since Paul OD'd. Violate the policy and kick rocks. Look up the "Condition" that Joey had. Listen to the leaked 911 call from his girlfriend the morning he passed.
You know the saddest part? They dont treat them like friends. In chris judicial process, it stated that the only "bosses" where clown and corey, and the rest where " workers who received a fee"
@@fantasmacamarada866 look up how an intervention works.
Sacking someone by email who’s been in the band for 18 is bad news behavior ;
thats who the slipknot are they use people and throw them away like trash they are a worthless band that just need to blow themselves up
Yeah that is pretty shitty.
@@darkshad0wz69 Really strange because Jim and Mick seem so cool in interviews I've seen
but who emailed him?
More and more I like Corey less
They haven't been the same since, his drumming was a huge part of the band's personality.
Trippy!! My dad's name is Mark Anderson haha
I definitely lost all respect for Slipknot after they kicked him out. Their whole message early on has been about the Slipknot family and the maggots, then they burned Joey via email. They fu*king burned all of us.
What, you don't like Weinberg's muffled attempts at pretending to be Joey?
@@joshdraken1 dude his neurological disease was affecting him playing the drums which eventually killed him
@@Psyrecx the dumbest comment on this video
“Why they fired joey”
“Joey was born in...”
Just get to the point 🤦🏻♂️, I don’t need his life story to hear why he left.
yeh. lol what the actual fuck... 3 hour video, when he took a shit in 99...
@@jmbs9833 lmao
Exactlyyyyyy
Dude just the fact that you complain about a video that was made for information for people who want to know about the situation is just lower than low
Then he pass away...
If no one in the band ever reached out over the years or said they were sorry or anything, they are going to be carrying a weight for the rest of their lives that will burden them without end…
Probably, which is horible honestly.
Correy himself already carries a multitude of bad feelings he have already shared with fans throughout the years, can't say less from the other guys.
I hope this stupid decision was not made by the band itself, but by someone who employed them, but idk.
Joey seemed to still love the guys, so i doubt there was something really bad between them.
@@mechamedeamigo3984 it was the clown. He's the gene Simmons of slipknot
Amen to that, they fired him in a bad way 8 years ago and it was hurtful!!
As they should. I guess thats just another expression of Karma.
@@ongogablogian3178 Karma has hit the clown very badly...
Them firing him for having transverse myelitis Is even more tragic now that he's lost his life to it
Well they thought he was on drugs due to how he was acting. Hell; most people wouldn't even know what transverse myelitis is if it wasn't for him.
@@trenchtierstudios554 a metal band that doesn’t like drugs??
@@rifIedoII Slipknot has been cleaning up their act over the years. And you'll be surprised how many metal bands have swore off drugs.
@@trenchtierstudios554 hm. that’s interesting
he was on drugs and he died from OD
Never forget meeting Slipknot. Joey was the first to approach us and say hi. Was a really cool guy and an awesome drummer. First 2 albums are the best.
YOP
We are not your kind is their best album overall. But self titled is the shit. And iowa rules too.
The whole thing, I think it’s [sic]
Iowa is such a good listen. How is it so grungy and low tuned, yet everything is crystal clear in the mix?
@@Danielfucks69 we are not your kind is their worst album dude 😂
Slipknot is a business; love the original band
Most accurate statement award goes to....
That is true. It's very disrespectful to fire an original member by text though especially if he has some disability. Imagine doing that today. Joey is a rock god. The irony that a Slipknot band member was fired because they thought he was on drugs when most of them were on drugs whilst making the first two and best albums makes me laugh though.
@@whitehorsedown6499 not an uncommon problem in the industry though, Joey just didn't have the paperwork to back it up, and as was pointed out, the band members rarely talked to each other. Shitty? Yes, but not surprising.
Every band that becomes financially supported becomes a business by definition.
@@ShawnGamesDrunk there's also the fact that Paul (rip,) had departed because of drugs not all that long ago at the time. There's a possibility that might have influenced their methods. Idk, something like that being said over text just reeks of impulsiveness to me, maybe even panic
Holy shit I was just watching this yesterday…only to find out today that this legend is no longer with us. Rest in power JJ.
11:55 This hits so different now. That would have been crazy if a reunion actually happened. R.I.P. Joey.
Corey is making too much money paying Jay to be a hired gun. He’d never allow Joey back as a main songwriter with an equal footing
It’s very sad, I see Jay as just and employed drummer, he does well his job but slipknot made a cruel mistake to not at least invite joey for a reunion
I miss Joey though. I was hurt when I heard they had fired Joey and to me it was never that same without him. I have grown to like Jay but still not the same for me.
I donno compare his 2012 live performances to jays. Thats what sold me.
Jay is a really good drummer, Joey is why i started playing drums but i gotta admit that Jay is a beast, I don't really listen to the songs with Jay's drumming tho
@@mikabass 2012 was when joey was sick, he’s fully recovered now
@@tea2920 Jay has a jazz foundation. Really really hard to beat a metal drummer with a jazz foundation.
@@29slowjoe other way around
Jay has zero jazz background
So to save you time, Joey had a rare neurological disorder which at the time was undiagnosed, the band assumed that he was doing drugs and fired him to I guess get him to get clean. They literally fired him over a EMAIL, which I’d imagine definitely ticked him off. Couple years later, Joey was officially diagnosed with the disorder and apparently there was only like one member (it was either Sid or Jim) who visited him in the hospital. Despite this, Joey still wished them the best. I can get what was going through there heads at the time, but the fact that they fired him over EMAIL and didn’t even give him a chance to explain himself or anything is definitely super messed up, and I expect more out of them. It was also pretty messed up that (reportably) only one member bothered to visit him (granted, apparently Corey did once say that he was planning on calling him but didn’t have the time). RIP Joey, you where a absolute legend
Dude was selfless and classy , huge loss. Rip
Rest in Power Joey Jordison! Heaven's got a hell of a band right now! You will be missed dearly!
You think as a founding member Joey would’ve at least deserved to mourn the loss of Paul Gray along with the rest of the band on The Gray Chapter. They really were the backbone of the band and it feels contrived without them
Valid point. Never really thought about it that way. Just makes his firing sting even more.
@@ArtistLisaM It sucks.. but at least what once was is still exists to enjoy
We'll find out
@@alejandroriggi495 He passed away yesterday
@@vincent2053 yes man, I'm aware.
It's sad that they fired the exact man that made slipknot that big, no joke when you heared about slipknot back then everyones next thought was "joey.." he formed slipknot and the sound they had..
Yup. They were left with a half of the original genius behind Slipknot’s sound and threw it away. Their sound suffers because of it
@@vincent2053 that's not something I would disagree with :) just sad it went that way
I like Joey alot, but Clown is the main guy behind the Slipknot phenomenon. Also clearly underscored by the fact that they still make bangers and great stuff after Joey is out of the band.
@@jacobsommer6146 i would call new slipknot "good" and old slipknot "great"
They kicked out an addict after a member overdosed.
If only they would have reunited. Rest in Power Joey I hope Paul welcome you with open arms.
Beautiful comment
@@Dark1ncision honestly
He certainly will
RIP Joey the legend, the fact that kicked out the founding member over email is just sad.
It is outrageous and shameful what they did to Joey.
Business is business
@Sam What exactly do you think im referring to when i say "what they did to Joey"?
@Sam by your logic, The Ghost Inside had to let Andrew Tkaczyk go because he lost his leg, and Def Leppard had to let Rick Allen go because he lost his arm. But guess what, neither of them did. They gave their drummers the time they needed to relearn how to play drums after their injuries, because they truly considered them "brothers". Meanwhile, Joey got transverse myelitis, and Slipknot kicked Joey out immediately after, because they didn't want to lose any money from touring, and replaced him with the cheapest pop punk drummer they could find. But of course, Slipknot members can do no wrong in your eyes
@Sam you should probably do more research on the band you're defending, considering Max is Bruce Springsteen's drummer (who is arguably very good), and it's his son Jay (who has never played anything outside of the simplicity that is pop punk) who drums for Slipknot. And I ask you again, why didn't Def Leppard kick Rick Allen out, and why didn't The Ghost Inside kick Andrew Tkaczyk out? Even if Joey was on drugs, kicking him out was a very douchey thing to do, as every single one of them has done their fair share of drugs, and they have the audacity to refer to each other as "brothers"
@@jareddoran6605 You raise a good point. However, it is my understanding that when they fired him, he hadn't gotten the diagnosis, so, since it's fair to assume that HE WAS doing drugs (they all were, let's not kid ourselves, you're entirely right), they concluded that his dip in form was because of that, not because of some not-yet-diagnosed condition. It still was a douchey move. The douchiest move, though, was not letting him back once they realized their mistake and that they had actually fired a founding member for, well, being sick.
No Paul no Joey no Chris no Slipknot.
There are 2 albums that prove you wrong
@@Meansnare I heard them. They are good albums. But they are not good slipknot albums. Paul and Joey were two of the three original members of the band. Joey wrote a lot of lyrics especially for the first album. He did most of artwork and the logos that they still have today. He even wrote guitar parts and so did Paul. Slipknot was originally their project. After that foundational chunk was taken out (not just the skill but the ideas too) it just became the Corey and clown show. Some of the songs are good metal and rock songs and most beat out anything on the radio. But it's not slipknot
@@korihayes3477 very true. Corey is so egotistical it's sad. He is pretty much the epitome of everyone I hated in high school (the cool guy that everyone worships, and the school is willing to bend rules to benefit him, and you're the dork if he rubs you the wrong way). And while Clown originally got everyone together, the band wouldn't have gone anywhere without Paul and Joey, because in all honesty, Clown isn't all that talented. Chris definitely brought rhythm and intricacy into the percussion world of Slipknot, and they replaced him with a guy who comes across like he's never hit a drum before. Then they replaced Joey with a guy who's never played anything outside of pop punk, and make him out to be god's gift to the earth. The only decent new guy is Vman, and they treat him like crap for no reason at all.
I can live without Chris, but Joey and Paul were the musical heart. The heart is gone
RIP Joey. Gone too soon but never to be forgotten .
Jay can do his thing, but he'll always be just doing his best to fill Joey's shoes. Joey was THE drummer for Slipknot. I always held out hope that he'd return to the throne onstage with the nine, but now all hope truly IS gone.
If this says anything different from 'legs died' then this will be legendary
I don't think so
I was thinking the same thing.
Long story short: no.. lol
Well, yes but also no...
just like micks neck

When I heard the news about Joey being fired by e-mail, I stopped listening and supporting the band. You can't just fire someone like Joey who put his heart to the group. He was not only the drummer, but also a composer, a writer and one of the funding members. He is also the person who sketched the iconic logo, the tribal S.
He really believed in the project and gave 100% of his dedication to it. I still have no clue what "The Gray Chapter" or the other album I don't even know the title of sound like. I wish things went differently. Joey is no longer with us and this makes me a bit sadder every day that passes. He didn't deserve to be fired from Slipknot, he didn't deserve to die so young and with such a horrible desease.
Dear Joey, the metal community is mourning your loss. We love you, may God bless your soul 🖤
The Gray chapter was a tribute to Paul Gray R.I.P
They became everything they said they wouldn't.
"We are the Nine. There is no one else. If I left the band, we'd be done. If Joey Jordison left this band, we'd be done." - Shawn Crahan (from an old Metal Hammer interview)
It's incredibly disappointing.
I'm pretty sure it was a corporate decision above the band's head and muzzled the band from making a response, I bet the suits got spooked when they found out about Joey's condition and medication and sent out a cold calculated termination notice.
@@SynthLizard8 Yeah, but that doesn't excuse none of the band members reaching out to him. The second he was out of the band then he was already dead to them.
@@Rzo139 Sid still went to visit him.
Joey will always be my slipknot R.I.P BRO
it doesn't matter what anyone says Joey will always be the goat at drumming
I wouldn't call him the "greatest of all time", but certainly one of the most influential metal drummers.
I am so lucky to witness SlipknoT before Paul passed on. One of the most amazing experiences in my life. Joey was a part of me growing up and I will be eternally thankful for that. Love you #1!
The drummer of the band that introduced me to music. RIP Joey. Heartbreaking.
This video hits different now... Rest in peace Joey
joey was the coolest member of all. I hope you guys don't tell me bad things about him.
Trust me it’s health issues and if I’m wrong I’m done with rock feed.
He was by far the most popular member of all.
@@14vatochongo he was fired because of his drugs and alcohol issues. The health issues with his legs that he uses as the excuse didn’t actually occur until after he was done touring with them. Look up the timeline of things if you don’t believe me.
@@RhuDrummer ha! Ok
@@RhuDrummer hmm hmm and you still think that none of the other members took drugs? There was a motive for corey and clown wanting joey out of the band.
What hurt me the most is back when no one knows what happen to joey (and he was starting Scar), people fking hated that shlt and bombed his career, while he was fighting the disease at the same time.
i actually liked scar the martyr
So they kicked Nathan for doing drugs yet mourn Paul grey for a drug overdose
RIP Nathan Jonas "Joey" Jordison. You were and always will be a legend and loved by many, you were and still are my idol drummer. Rest easy king
Exactly, so hypocritical
As a girl it wasn’t normal for some people “to listen to music like this”. Joey was the reason why I fell in love with Slipknot when I was younger and I never stopped loving them -especially this weird drummer guy. I feel so lucky that I saw him doing his magic live. I cannot believe he is gone. Rest in peace Joey. There will never EVER be no one like you.
Im not a slipknot fan really but it sounds good you challenged social norms.
Ρίκα! Κατάθεση καρδιάς απλά!!! Όντως, έκπληξη για Ελληνίδα αλλά και πολύ πολύ όμορφη να ακούει μέταλ (το 80% των Ελλήνων ακούει κλαρινομπουζούκια και ποπ).

Only without the judgement.

I'm not a fan of Corey Taylor's Stone Sour I didn't think they were bad it's just Slipknot became less heavy and more pop rock to me not like the first two albums which were heavy metal goodness. I don't know it's just I haven't gotten a heavy slipknot album since Iowa and I'm still waiting. Am I in the minority with this sentiment?
I was surprised to learn how short Joey Jordison is, doesn't matter to me he's a cool drummer.
He’s like 5’3” yet he was majority of chicks fav member.
Short drummers are actually better.
@@JasonRyanWilson quicker, less distance to travel
Let's not forget Corey is also a shorty lol
@@JasonRyanWilson Danny Carrey from Tool is like 6’5. I don’t think it matters.
“Why sklipknot fired Joey” proceeds to go through the history of the band
Lol exactly he started from joey being an embryo to why he was fired
@@MrUrech title should of been “history of Joey in slipknot”
@@MrUrech why Joey was fried starts here 10:42 bad title choice really
Rest In Peace! What a great drummer he was. Very sad he is gone.
Rip Joey. I wish you could’ve played with Slipknot again 🤍
I just cried seeing this. Thank you Joey....you will be missed my brother. Descansa em paz. Rest in peace my brother.
Anybody here after Joey's passing? This man was a complete legend in the drummer world, as an inspiration to many including myself, R.I.P
It was an honor to see Joey play. I was 16 years old at my first outdoor festival and this man hung upside down spinning around playing the drums so profoundly I couldn’t even head bang. I just stood in absolute awe of the talent pouring out of this small man strapped to a giant drum set, feeling the beat of every pound deep in my heart. I knew I was metal head girl from that day on. My heart goes out to all the people mourning this incredible artist. RIP #1.
When I hear Joey’s reason is “health” but then from James Root, “someday I might be able to talk about it......”, that makes me think that something else is up.
Could still be the same thing tho
From what I’ve heard it was multiple factors
Look up what causes the transverse myelitis. The disease that Joey has. That'll be your answer
@@nickshades6727 there are like 100 different diseases that can cause it, what's your point...
@@nickshades6727 can't you just write what your point is? Fuck.
Didnt you forget to mention that he also was a founding member of Murderdolls?
Barely any of Joey's other bands or guest appearances were mentioned, I don't think that was really the point of the video.
I miss murderdolls. So much.
@@crmsnmth I've been on a Murderdoll kick.
@@insertmetalusernamehere I'm always on a murderdolls kick, haha.
HERE FOR MURDERDOLLS
It’s really gross how they treated him. Just fired him assuming it was drugs instead of asking if he was okay and asking what they could do. And then firing him by email and not talking to him after that. Sadly, he’s no longer here, and they will never get the opportunity to make amends with him. I have always had a large respect for Slipknot and Corey, but yeah the way they handled the Joey situation is gross.
cry more
Now that Joey's gone I've grown more upset with the band as joey was without his biggest love for the rest of his life. I still love slipknot and I think they found the perfect drummer if it wasn't going to be joey. I hope they had at least talked and healed all wounds before his passing.
f*ck Slipnot for treating Joey the way they did.
Didn't happen
They really fumbled the bag with firing Joey
Since Joey's departure, slipknot hasn't been the same, and imo, the even kinda lost an identity in their sound. Sad
I'm not too keen on the whole polish and glamor they put on their sound, I totally agree... It's a little too thematic, or even operatic with this last album. That whole unsainted sound, it was too much like a Ghost ripoff with all the chorals and shit. And I'm not really digging corey's scream these days... It's guttural, without the frenetic grit. It has this effort to it, it's calculated without the full ferocious, insanity he would spit like acid rain in your face, he was so venomous and
They have been better than ever to me
Each album they've put out since his departure hasn't touched me the way self titled, Iowa, vol 3 or all hope is gone did.
@@grahamashcroft871 to me personally i love the newest album. I think the music, master, and delivery is better overall
@@charlesleeray1873 the production is good I just can't get behind the songs, atlas rise and few others are good but songs like I am savage and manunkind are terrible in my personal opinion. Love the band and have for a very long time I just know they can write better material than that.....I guess that's what grinds my gears a little I don't feel like they're giving it 100% anymore. Still love them to death but I know in my heart they have the capability of making another justice or puppets.
Just found out he died last night, Rest easy buddy, We all loved you Joey!!!
Joey Jordison was always my favorite & it broke my heart to hear of his passing. I stopped listening to Slipknot beyond All Hope Is Gone cuz I didn’t feel it was right they continued without Paul Gray. But then they kicked Joey out & I was so upset I refused to listen to any of the new material. I’ve loved Slipknot since I was a kid. So this was hard to get news of
No replacement can ever compare to Joey Jordison!!!!
Jay is still pretty good though
@@jackwilliams8315 pretty good? He’s a beast
They both amazing. Jay earned his place in the band, he is killing it!
@@hectorumpierrez6002 v man, jay, tortilla man has gotten a lot better I think. They have all earned their place in slipknot
@@dapaintbrush6965 true
I have him inked on my calf for a reason... absolutely unique drummer with his own style.
He’s my role model.
Not just because of his drumming. He is a fighter
RIP to this absolute legend.
No one will ever be as good as Joey jordison was rip Joey this hurts
he had a medical condition that damaged his ability on drums, they thought he was slacking, after learning about his condition they had nothing but support and love for him. nuff said, your years late on this
I know a lot of people have a soft spot for Jay but they need to get Joey back provided he is healthy enough to play. It's what Paul would have wanted🤘
And now he's reunited with Paul Gray 😢😢😢😢
Where? Hell! They are devil's..
@@buddywilliams5650 Whatever. You have a right to your opinion. But i also have the right to disagree. Niether one of us know where they ended up so I think it's safe to say that as much as we would think we know, we actually don't.
@@buddywilliams5650 these are literal people that died, have some human decency.
Rest in peace, Joey
Started listening to Slipknot due to Joey. He’s a legend and can never be disassociated from Slipknot.
There was absolutely zero news that we haven't heard in years. None.
The reason I fell in love with Slipknot's music is because of Joey. It was my high school days when I first heard Joey's double pedal and it sounded like a effing machine gun!
Miss the small power house that he was ! R.I.P. JOEY ! 😢
A massive 5’3 larger than life 😩❤️
After iowa slipknot was never the same for me...and plus 2 of the original musicians not being part of it even more makes it not the same..it was so amazing while it lasted
i agree seems like anytime rick rubin touches something great he degrades it. like a wagyu tenderloin steak getting smothered in ketchup
@@gorillamilitia6327 yeah because rick rubin pop'ifys it.
@@sathanas420 he didn’t do that with System of a Down
Rick Rubin made the strokes great again
Joey is my all time favorite musician, he did so much more than just drumming for the band.
He inspire most of all contemporer drummer in the world beside Mike Portnoy...
@@Kurnia_aesmg Danny Carey?
YES
I remember seeing him play for satyricon when they came to the states in 2010 , I actually got to talk to him and never knew he was in slipknot lol
Corey snd the rest of slipknot did him so dirty. It's disgusting
It’s all about Corey and Shaun. Creative control and overblown ego. When you hear psychosocial, you’re hearing Joeys creative input, and that’s a fact.. Corey hated where that song went. And it was a huge success, and a huge blow to their ego. Slipknot has amazingly talented members, all of them, but ego and greed are tearing it apart. And I don’t care how adamantly they cry “creativity” or “it’s about the fans”, you don’t start cutting off pieces of yourself like this unless it’s ego and greed in the music biz.
I agree
💯 💯
psychosocial was about firing joey. aside from the lyrics look when corey gives a thumbs down and whos behind him, then when he says "im not the only one" look who pops up
@@XP-Renegade what the fuck are you talking about? Corey didn’t dislike psychosocial. And that thumbs down move was just a Corey thing you really think he has any say in the editing process for their videos, no. That’s clown
Sooo,.. psychosocial was about firing Joey.. keep that secret to yourself. 😂
00:15
This clip already bummed me out the first time I watched this video, because of Paul. But now it’s worse because they’re both gone.
He was so nice and humble, sad sad day
That was a really messed up way to fire a member they could have at least called the poor guy that really stinks.
At least they could've bought him a bus ticket... Geez!
@@michaelangeloh.5383 a bus ticket? From where? Oh wait is this a Metallica joke haha
After Paul Gray died Slipknot started to fall apart Joey was with the band from day one and they fired him like that i get it he had health issues but he has been loyal to Slipknot and this is how they repay him i can see why he was angry.
I mean they’re still killing it 🤷♂️
Man joey’s character is the only reason I ever give a chance to Sinsaenum (definitely not my music taste but fk it).
@@morasoftwood8224 same, not really a death metal guy but I wanna support joey so I bought the record and a shirt lol
They replaced Joey with a guy who has no experience outside of basic pop punk music, and they replaced Chris with a guy who has no musical talent. If there's a band making horrible business decisions, it's Slipknot. Meanwhile, 5FDP replaced Jeremy with a guy with a jazz background and they replaced Jason with a guitar virtuoso. Who would've thought 5FDP is capable of finding better replacements for their members that Slipknot?
@@jareddoran6605 at this point jay is a better drummer than Joey, also jay toured with Bruce Springsteen at 16 when max couldn’t, there’s more to drumming then just fast double bass. Jay does everything Joey could do. And you act like Chris had a huge impact the dude literally played percussion 😂 at least clown has creative input. Also, there last album went number 1 and they were selling out every arena and putting on some of there best shows in awhile. So there “Bad business decisions“ are paying off pretty well
RIP Joey you were a part of my musical inspiration and you were one of the most influential drummers out there. Damn
they just fire him via email :(
RIP Joey :(
His drumming was as important to Slipknot as Chris Adler's drumming was for Lamb Of God. Without the two of them, those are entirely two different versions of the band. I prefer the Coca Cola versions, not this new coke stuff.
Yeah I don't like listening to Metallica after Cliffs death because its just diet mountain dew instead of being regular mountain dew like the Cliff era was.
I thought this would have new information. I literally knew and heard everything in this video already. I was a HUGE Joey fan. He was my favorite member. I just want to know why. I want to hear it from Clowns mouth.
Of course, all this channel does is google stuff and make videos from it, it’s how ‘media’ or news information channels work these days when everyone in there bedrooms an make such things.
Joey was screwed over by Slipknot, but Corey and Clown will never tell anyone that, as they're extremely egotistical, and Joey won't come clean, because he doesn't want to see his creation (Slipknot) fail
@@jareddoran6605 how did he get screwed over? It’s not Coreys fault he got Transverse myelitis, Joey had a Coke problem and that contributed to the issue, plus his drumming live was getting extremely sloppy and stiff which was the polar opposite of the style that made me a fan of his.
What were they supposed to do have the band on hiatus until he was fully back to full health?In that case the gray chapter wouldn’t have come out until 2018 IF that
@@romaretaylor9953 Def Leppard went on hiatus for Rick Allen when he lost his arm, so why couldn't Slipknot wait for Joey to heal? Also, they kicked him out over the speculation that he was on meth, when in reality, he was suffering from Transverse Mylitis. But of course, the current members of Slipknot can do no wrong in your guys' eyes
@@jareddoran6605 how anybody managed to play drums with one arm is astounding to me first off so God bless that man, but your comparing a glam rock band to a heavy metal band for one, and two, again that hiatus was a year and a half. If anything that’s a quicker turnaround than I would’ve expected if i was a def leopard fan. In slipknot case their fanbase wouldn’t have waited a decade after AHIG for Joey to get well enough and even now he’s still not really as creative or innovate behind the kit as he used to be. Trust me I’ve been a fan of these guys for years and years I had to get used to Jay but he’s proved himself over and over again that he’s got chops, groove, enough speed and charisma to handle his position. Ill always respect Joey as #1 tho why do you think Jay doesn’t have that number on his patch?
Rest in piece Joey. I may play guitar, but to me he is the greatest drummer to ever live. 🤟
After Joey left The knot is no longer in my world, specially because he didn't want to leave, and he was the main attraction of the band, RIP slipknot
