How many members are there in slipknot?

1September 1995, Slipknot Company was established in Des Moines, Iowa, USA. After initial development, the band headed by Shawn Crahan, the clown, finally formed a fixed lineup of up to nine people. The slipknot band also uses 9 numbers from 0 to 8 to represent each member. From 0 to 8, they are Sid Wilson, Joey Jordison, paul gray, Chris Fehn, James Root, Craig Jones, Shawn Klahan, Mick Thompson and corey taylor. Since its establishment, the nine members of the Slipknot Band have always regarded masks as their most important performance tools. Wherever you go, you only see the mask, but you can't see the true face.

Since its establishment, Slipknot Band has been pursuing its own unique music style and expressing music in its own way, a kind of crazy, noisy, dark, violent and cathartic heavy metal music. However, their unique and crazy performances didn't get much recognition in the local area at first, but it didn't take long for their wild music to win the favor of many young people. 1996 Halloween, Slipknot recorded a demo“Mate. Hello. Murder. Repeat. " In the summer of 1997, it was sold through a small record company named -Ismaist in Nebraska. Fortunately, their album won the favor of Roadrunner Records, a bigger record company, soon after its release. Later that year, Slipknot officially signed a contract with Roadrunner Records, and they also started a long-term cooperation with producer Ross Robinson.

1999, the Slipknot band released their first official album Slipknot on Roadrunner Records after a period of accumulation. Through the non-stop tour, the slipknot band gradually has its own fixed fan base, and their performance in the Ozzfest music industry has greatly improved their popularity. Their violent and even bloody performances quickly conquered many heavy metal fans through TV broadcast. In this performance, many band members were injured due to excessive venting during the performance, and Crahan, the soul of the band, even needed stitches in his head. However, their blood won them a wider reputation. Their singles "Waiting for Blood" and "Spit Out" immediately became very popular singles, and their album sales have been very smooth. In 2000, they almost entered the top 50 of the Billboard 200 list, and their sales in the United States exceeded 654.38+0 million, ranking first in the history of Roadrunner records.

200 1, Slipknot has become one of the most concerned heavy metal bands in the United States, and their second album "Iowa" is highly anticipated. Although it was released at the end of August, it still ranks third in the Billboard 200 list, with sales of more than 880,000 copies in the United States. However, just after the release of this album, after the tour and the crazy performance of Ozzfest Music Festival, the members of Slipknot began to split.

Slipknot set up his own maggot recording after the tour, and signed a band called Downthesun, in which the lead singer was the drummer of Crahan, the core of Slipknot, but other members of the band started to do their own things.

Slipknot's DJ Sid Wilson also changed his name to DJ Starscream and started his personal development. The band's two guitarists, James Root and Mick Thompson, also started their personal music development. Drummer Joey Jordison also joined another band, the Rejects, where he even often performed as a guitarist; Corey Taylor, the lead singer of the band, joined Superego, and in 2002, he contributed a single "Shuangshuang" to the soundtrack of the blockbuster "Spider-Man". However, the division of the slipknot zone has not ended, but has intensified. In the summer of 2002, Joey Jordison, drummer of Slipknot Band, and Tripp Eisen, guitarist of Static-X Band, formed Murderdolls Band. Corey taylor, the lead singer of the band, reorganized his Stone Sour band. Other members include two other guitarists, Jim Gunn and DJ Sid Wilson. The Stone Sour band released its first album "Stone Sour" in 2002. It seems that the reunion of the band is still far away.

In the winter of 2002, Corey Taylor, the lead singer of Slipknot, made a statement on the band's homepage, claiming that his teammates had not spoken for several months, and the band would rather disband than become the second Gwar band. This statement quickly caused an oral dispute between members of Gwarband Oder Ouurungus and Corey Taylor. However, this announcement soon reunited the members of the slipknot band. At the beginning of 2003, corey taylor's statement disappeared from the homepage. Instead, the band members have reunited and started recording their new album.

In the summer of 2003, Slipknot began to record their first new album in three years with another big-name producer, Rick Rubin, and began to tour again in early 2004. It has been made clear that they will attend Ozzfest Music Festival again in the summer and will use their redesigned third-generation mask. On May 25, 2004, the anger and noise of the Slipknot band returned to the fans with their third official album, Volume III: Subconscious Poems.

After the publication of "Poems of the Subconscious" in 2004, every member of the band took a long vacation, some were busy with their own lives, and some helped to make some sidebands or personal works. Therefore, the recording of the album began at the end of last year and ended in June+10 this year. Originally, it was supposed to be released in February, but the band was still not satisfied with the mix, so they went back to the studio to rework it, which took so long.

The new album "All Hope Disappeared" will not focus on Thrash metal like the last one, which showed many guitar solos. The band members feel that the space for doing this is getting narrower and narrower, so they want to add some acoustic guitar elements and beautiful melodies to the song.

The band is from Idaho and has an impressive platinum sales. This metal-style rock band consists of nine monsters. Ugly and grotesque masks are not their notorious places. Throwing feces at the audience, drinking urine, roasting the living and breaking each other's bones are their unique skills. This popular band in Europe and America has more injuries than a hockey team. Of course, the audience will not be spared when watching the performance of this group of music thugs. In Oklahoma City, a riot broke out when 60 spectators with tickets were ordered to leave the scene. A British female fan was hit on the head by a musician who jumped off a 30-foot stage.

The slipknot band has been established for five years, and now it is their heyday. The nine members of the band all wear different masks (mainly made of rubber and metal) and name themselves with numbers from 0 to 8. No.0 Wilson, 1 drummer Joey Jordan (Joey Jordison), No.2 bassist Paul Gary (paul gray), No.3 drummer Chris Fehn (Chris Fan En), No.4 guitarist Jim Root (Jim Lute), No.5 sampler controller Craig Jones (Gray Jones), No.6 drummer Shawn Crahan (Shawn Crahan) and No.7 drummer. It is said that replacing names with numbers is to reduce the influence of personality on the whole, thus highlighting the image of the team, while wearing clowns or monster masks is to scare the audience.

Drummer Shawn Crahan is 30 years old and used to be an electric welder. 1993, he contacted the local bassist Paul Gary, and Gary called his alumnus and drummer Joey Jordison, who used to oil and dress the body in the funeral home. Graham picked up an abandoned carpet from a pet shop and hung it in his basement, thus forming a training ground with good acoustics. Everyone rehearses here for four hours every day, no matter how much animal droppings that "tapestry" leaves. When they walked out of the rehearsal place, they smelled shame for six hours. Their first album was born in this small basement. New members came and went. 1995, the band added three guitarists, Jim Root, Mick Thomson and Craig Jones (the latter later became a full-time sampler). He declared that he would not be interviewed by the media or anyone), and the addition of DJ Sid Wilson and the third drummer Chris Fehn further expanded the sound effect of the band. Chris Fehn is a football player on the university team and likes the Iron Lady. His mother is an organist in the church. Finn's father, who has watched three performances by Slipknot, said, "I think this band has brought good things to children. I am 55 years old. I saw that the audience's reaction at the concert was unique and the performance was very attractive. " Finn is the only musician who wears a long nose mask. Take off the mask. He is the healthiest and most handsome one. The last person to join the slipknot band was singer corey taylor. He wrote most of the lyrics of Slipknot. "My mother is often unemployed, and I never know who my father is. I have been homeless for two weeks, "Taylor said. Taylor,/kloc-dropped out of school at the age of 0/8, once worked in a porn shop and worked as a part-time singer in a small band. Taylor said it was great to work in a porn shop, where many of his works were created. The slipknot band had almost no trouble from formal formation to fame. In the late 1990s, they recorded their first album in the basement of Klahan, which attracted the attention of the music industry. Then came an important performance opportunity, and they appeared in the Ozzfest tour hosted by Ozzy Oourne last year. At first, they inevitably encountered some small resistance. After the performance, drummer Joey Jordison met a priest. The priest was obviously angry with the performance of the slipknot band and scolded Jordan. There are also fans who are unfamiliar and want to coax them off the stage. But when people found that this metal band actually had a group of drummers, two guitarists, a DJ and a sampler, they immediately felt very novel. They sacrificed their faces, wore prison clothes and burned their skin during the performance, causing red spots and blisters on their skin. No one dares to laugh at the craziest person on earth. They are not acrobats and magicians. It's true that they play with shit, drink urine, cut themselves, break their ribs and hurt their calves. People are surprised, which is what they want to see. Jordison said, "It's not that we deliberately want to achieve a certain goal, but that music has brought us to that situation."

Jordison didn't really tell the essence of the problem. It was the audience who encouraged them to do so. After the above improvisation, the Slipknot Band sold 1 5000 albums in1week. The slipknot band is just an unpopular obituary in music style, and there are only a few more members at most. There are countless bands with more skills than them, but the audience prefers one because the slipknot band will throw shit at the audience and add a curse: you are all shit.
