It seemed only fitting that at this year’s Revolver Golden Gods Awards, members of Slipknot – Corey Taylor, Sid Wilson and M. Shawn Crahan – would be on hand to present the award in the brand new Paul Gray Best Bassist category. The award was named in honor of Slipknot bassist Paul Gray who died in May 2010 from a drug overdose.

The masked marauders of Slipknot have elaborated on plans for their next album, but they reiterate that they’re in no hurry to enter the studio.

This summer Slipknot is getting ready to  hit the road almost a year after the death of Paul Gray.  Everyone is ready to move on, except Corey Taylor.

The metal band is getting ready to play some of the biggest gigs it's ever had, and with the loss of their bass player Paul Gray still fresh, they are also set to be the bands most emotional.

Nikki Sixx calls Vince Neil one of the greatest front men of all time; RUSH gets a JUNO award; Corey Taylor talks about the late Paul Gray.

It's been almost a year since the Des Moines, Iowa-based octet Slipknot lost their guitarist Paul Gray (at the age of 38) to an accidental morphine overdose. Not that he could ever be replaced, but as the band prepares for their summer abroad tour, they've found the perfect person to fill-in: former Slipknot member and guitarist Donnie Steele.

While watching the Grammy's last Sunday night did you notice certain people missing from the In Memoriam video presentation?

Slipknot announced that they continue to tour, starting with the Sonisphere Festival in Switzerland on June 24th,  the question now is will Paul Gray be replaced?
