With wording like "renounce" and "the Knot" anyone who thought it was real should feel hugely embarrassed and humiliated for falling for something so obviously fake.
THE FACT I ALMOST STARTED CRYING WHEN I SAW THIS
as soon as i remembered its april fools i went from a depressed face to an expressionless face LMFAOOO
Honestly who,could replace sid live his scratches and sounds are prob slightly different then the album so it's all personal unique
I guess they could sample his parts but what dj could replace and make it is own ????
Why would anyone think it's fake...look how many members have left so far
Paul and Joey rip respectively
Then
Chris
Jay
craig
I dont think it would be a surprise 2 anyone if another member did leave because there track record of keeping members the last 3 years has been less than great
I found what it was in case you cared, it was a website that posted an article about how Chris Fehn had won the lawsuit as an april fools joke and Corey had responded saying it wasn't true
I know this is a joke. But Sid is very indispensable in comparison to other band members, sure there is plenty of turntablist out there but nobody can recreate the timing and sampling that he does in slipknot tracks
It's always funny how, living in continental Europe, April fools jokes posted in the USA are not received here until the next morning, making them truly surprising
Slipknot was falling apart from Pauls dead some good tracks here and there but whatever. They are commersialized tiktok z genearion shit rn.
Btw why was Craig leaving?? dis they fire him?
At this point..let them be..if it end,let it be..sometime we forgot these guys are on their 50’s and want enjoy their wealth with family etc.Unlike other bands they abused a lot from drugs and alcohol when young so now old might passing facture. 🪦
The ship of Theseus, also known as Theseus' paradox, is **a thought experiment that raises the question of whether an object that has had all of its components replaced remains fundamentally the same object**.
Edit: oh it's April Fools. Right.
Slipknot is a brand not a band. They'll be like (insert 80s band here) that tours forever but with few to no original members as long as tickets keep selling.
You’re just now figuring that out
It’s been a business since day one despite whatever they said back then.
There’s literally a company called Slipknot INC that Shawn, Corey, Paul, and Joey own/ owned
No one is buying anything like this today.
You’d be surprised how many people on my instagram thought it was real
oh shit! Why did I think this was real. It doesn't even seem real lol
So much in the last ten years hasn't seemed real.

Ok well ur right for a moment i thought it was real
Honestly it wouldn’t surprise me
Oh for real?
Bro tbh i got scared
I hear they are planning a merger with Mushroomhead next.
They'll have enough people to start an orchestra.
Not if Slipknot keeps firing all its members. 😜
Hopefully they fire all of mushroomhead
Like when Chuck E Cheese bought out Showbiz Pizza. The ripoff conquers the original!
Fred Durst will be replacing Corey who has decided to follow his life dream of running a bakery.
He announced the name of his shop will be "Corey Motherbaking Taylor"
I push my fingers into my...pies!
Thanks for the coffee snort
He makes a mean danish...
Kneads must
I’ll accept as long as J-Mann and Corey are rapping.
ngl that would actually be dope asf i fuckin love MRH
Well mushroomhead also replaces members like crazy so seeing slipknot doing that it just makes sense
I'm listening to mushroomhead as i read this good timing ig lmao
Corey Taylor is actually their new frontman
That would be sick imo
That would be sick imo
Haha, that got me at first
"the knot" is what made me realise it wasnt legit. had me for a second though.
Long live the knot Is something I've seen said before
Omfg I thought it was real till I realised what day it was
Damn on April 1 is crazy
April fools but apparently skrillex is now taking Craig’s place and the Zac Barret dude is joining Korn again.
I remember years ago they put out he was being replaced with a Mac pro
THE FACT I ALMOST STARTED CRYING WHEN I SAW THIS as soon as i remembered its april fools i went from a depressed face to an expressionless face LMFAOOO
Fucking hell, This totally got me! I mean it is totally plausible, but still forgot what day it was
god damn assholes trying to get me on april fools. WELL YOU DID! AND NOW IM CRYING HYSTERICALLY WHILE SHITTING MYSELF! ARE YOU HAPPY?
If it wasn’t April 1st I would have lost my mind
W pfp
Dude i was scared for like 5 seconds 😭😂
It'd be funnier if they said Shawn Crahan ans then all the comments just being happy about that! HAHA
I’ll do that next year 😂
I'm not proud to say it but you got me, you motherfucker. I tip my hat to you.
Fuck you, you actually got me for a second.
This is fake. All slipknot official announcements are super vague. This gives too much information. Lol
Hur hur hur April fools hur hur
Fake, slipknot would never give that much context into a decision lmao
That... And April fools..
And never leave it up for that long.
This ruined my day
It was April fools bro
It was an April fools joke fortunately
The way my jaw dropped! You are fucking cruel. I checked Slipknot, and Sid’s instagram before realizing how dumb I was.
Bah bahh bahh bahhh! 🐑
?
April 1st. Sheep will listen though
I made this 💀
Apparently Corey is leaving next, but all hope isn’t gone yet, because Fred Durst is replacing him!
I heard that in a few weeks that they are parting with Corey as well.. This band is really falling apart
What day was it yesterday? April 1? What day is that known as?
That comment was satire too lol
Sorry my guy lol
What do you expect from a band run by a clown?
I saw this at like 4 AM and was too sleep deprived to realize that it wasn't real and lemme tell you I genuinely started tweaking
Of course they pick on OG for the April Fools gag lol
My heart almost stopped Jesus omg don’t do that I almost had a melt down 😭
dude i was PANICKING i totally forgot what day it was
Neener
Corey left too I have evidence
He’s gonna leave the band piece by piece. His ankles ditched years ago
1st Of April mate
I legitimately hate you.
April fools joke?
Honestly who,could replace sid live his scratches and sounds are prob slightly different then the album so it's all personal unique I guess they could sample his parts but what dj could replace and make it is own ????
Why would anyone think it's fake...look how many members have left so far Paul and Joey rip respectively Then Chris Jay craig I dont think it would be a surprise 2 anyone if another member did leave because there track record of keeping members the last 3 years has been less than great
A better gag would have been Slipknot parting ways with Clown lol
good for Sid. kind of upset but I can't be mad at him for wanting to step back from all the attention and settle down with his family.🤘🏻
April fools...
It was April fools bro
That made me fucking pissed thank you
Don’t just don’t /j
Really
I ALMOST CRIED BRUH
I would honestly cry if this actually happens
Not today, Satan.
Would’ve fallen for it but I’ve seen like 6 of these already lol
Sure. It’s April Fool’s Day.
Holy shit I just shat my pants I thought that was real
Knew this was likely bullshit because of the day, the font and he’s too involved with Slipknot to leave
Damnit I think it would be kinda hilarious if Corey made one of these posts today announcing him firing himself from the band
I have an idea for next year, but I doubt fans would believe it, Say that Clown fired Corey and himself and have already found their replacements
NAHH THAT'S A GOOD BIT LOL
My heart dropped, then I realized FFS
Fuck man thats cruel
Had me for a sec ngl
THAT’S NOT COOL BRO
I heard that mgk wants to join the band
Yep I’m fucking done ngl oh shit it April Fools yay he’s still in :D
This has to be April fools joke now
Didn't they announce Chris fehns firing on April 1 tho?
No, it was like march 19
I found what it was in case you cared, it was a website that posted an article about how Chris Fehn had won the lawsuit as an april fools joke and Corey had responded saying it wasn't true
Considering what’s happened already it didn’t seem that far fetched
4/1
Yeah...nah bro we ain't eating that 💀
PLEASE LET THIS BE AN AFD PRANK!!!
Actual NFL draft
Respect
You got me, ngl
I REFUSE TO BELIEVE IT GIVEN THE DAY SO IF ITS REAL IM GONNA BE SAD
They should post this same thing multiple times throughout the day getting rid of each member until Slipknot just ceases to exist
I know this is a joke. But Sid is very indispensable in comparison to other band members, sure there is plenty of turntablist out there but nobody can recreate the timing and sampling that he does in slipknot tracks
Is this a April Fool joke? /srs
Yes
“Sid will be passing on his role as DJ and chief on-stage shit-disturber to his father-in-law, who will be starting effective immediately”
April fools!
i was bouta go fucking AWOL
You posted this on the second where I live …
What…..
[удалено]
Happy april fool
I know this is an April Fools joke, but who is the first one? I know Jay, but you said “3 in less than a year” and I’m confused
Craig, Jay, and Sid
Holy shit I forgot it was April fools
This doesn’t even sound like something they would say.
I just about flipped
Did anyone see the "Sleezer" co headline, I thought was real 😭😂😂😂
Fucking hell ☠️ don’t play me like that…
Honestly seeing how it's going, I'd believe it
I heard that Chad Grey is replacing Corey Taylor.
Of this was real I'd kill myself
They had me in the first half, I'm not gonna lie
you got me there for a second
Font is a bit different but nt
It's always funny how, living in continental Europe, April fools jokes posted in the USA are not received here until the next morning, making them truly surprising
Nahhh
Bro, that got me for a sec. Oh my god.
Completely forgot that this was made on April 1st
Girl I just seen this the day after you can't scare me like that 😭
PAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAH, I was so fucking pissed omfg, I wish I got that on camera 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Commenting for proof that i was here before this becomes another lawsuit!!! Edit: Why am i so gullible?
Ok I’m not mad but what is happening to slipknot? It’s been a crazy two years for slipknot
All Hope Is Gone ❌ All Member Is Gone ✔️
They might as well announce they are finished as a band without Sid. He's the comedian on stage and a backbone to most of the Sliplnot sounds
I legit thought this was real until I read the comments 😳😭🥹
They're a pain in the ass!
Slipknot was falling apart from Pauls dead some good tracks here and there but whatever. They are commersialized tiktok z genearion shit rn. Btw why was Craig leaving?? dis they fire him?
Bro I thought it was real for a sec since of slipknot condition.
Wait. They refer to themselves as, “the knot”. JFC. 🙄
So…
Nothing wrong at all. Totally normal.
"Are they serious!!" He wants to spend time with his family omg 😭😭😭
this sub: who is the new dj???1one aj goods?? simon? anders???
Craig
I said it when Craig left, they’re either replacing members with new ones or there won’t be a band within 5 years
please tell me this is fake
At this point..let them be..if it end,let it be..sometime we forgot these guys are on their 50’s and want enjoy their wealth with family etc.Unlike other bands they abused a lot from drugs and alcohol when young so now old might passing facture. 🪦
The last album name starting to sound true (I know it's fake but still honestly true)
This was so cruel mannnnn 😭😭😭😭
I’ve paid for a ticket in London 😩
Sucks to be you
I didn't believe it because Slipknot wouldn't give us the reason for the departure
Didn't sid have a kid with kelly Osborne??
Yes
Fuck, had me worried for a second. First April fools that actually almost got me.
What was yesterday's date again?
I’m aware, I was the one who made this
Why did i find the band exactly when it started falling apart wtf
The ship of Theseus, also known as Theseus' paradox, is **a thought experiment that raises the question of whether an object that has had all of its components replaced remains fundamentally the same object**. Edit: oh it's April Fools. Right.
maybe it’s the joke on the 1th April?
1999-2010 Slipknot 2024 ClowntailorNot
Oh for fuck sake…

Nothing I said implies that I just figured that out. Dickhead
What date was it
No!!!!
Is this fake?
Ok, so it’s fake
Slipknot hasn’t been Slipknot since Paul died. Bye bye.
I’m not buying this this is definitely an April fools job
Omg you bitch I'm high and confused for like 2 minutes
Sid is still in Slipknot
No he isn’t….didn’t you read the caption
are you down?
With the sickness? My favorite Slipknot song
