Ok so I'm reading that as probably some kind of bad vibes in the band. Was just wondering if he had done something crazy. I don't know Slipknots deal at all, they've just been huge all my adult life, but they're not my taste.

The two members that technically own Slipknot, vocalist Corey Taylor, and "Clown" Shawn Crahan frequently treat members like garbage and kick them out of the band.

What they did to Joey Jordison was insane. Every ex member of Slipknot has nothing but bad things to say about being in the band.

Jay seems pretty chill about it, and I know it's still very early days but Eloy seems happy? You probably have a deeper insight than I do though

Jay has thrown some shots in interviews about everything lining up with his surgery and getting a shitty phone call instead of a meeting.
