DES MOINES, Iowa � Paul Gray, the bassist for Grammy-winning metal band Slipknot, was found dead Monday in an Iowa hotel room, police said.

A hotel employee found Gray, 38, dead in a room at the Town Plaza Hotel in Urbandale, a suburb of Des Moines, police said in a statement. Foul play isn't suspected, and an autopsy is planned for Tuesday.


I was never really into Slipknot, but 38 is too young.

I wasn't the biggest fan of slipknot, but I did like a few of their songs. It's a shame he died so young.

It could have been someone else in a Slipknot mask, no?

Do you think he hung himself? Just wondering.

Hehe. That reminds me of this Aussie radio personality called John Safran.

He had a group of teenage boys dress up as Slip Knot and had them waltz into the VIP lounges of some top Sydney bars. Worked a treat.

If you ever get a chance to see any of his shows, I highly recommend it.
