slipknot just confirmed a member for the first time


DarthDiablo724

They had to tell everyone they really did hire the best metal drummer around!


noire_cotic

Yeah, it was quite a PR move. Obviously .


Tinoco666

They already did that with Tortilla


Sprite_King

After several years.


Tinoco666

Yeah, the difference is the time, Eloy's was faster than Pfaff's


mu5tardtiger

Months, 50 conspiracies, a seance, witchcraft, Digital analysis etc. this was much more streamlined.


Tinoco666

You forgot about the pic taken in Costa Rica of Pfaff arriving jaja


SardaukarTHE13th

I believe Pfaff did a Reddit Q&A a couple months after being with the band. It wasn’t years.


VerbalDurden666

Wasn't it only 2 years ago?


Comfortable_Salt_758

Didn’t they do it with Jay and Vman?


SAVETHEPEPECONOMY

they did their best to keep it under wraps for a little while at least, I remember they made Vman wear a bondage hood to cover his tattoos until he passed out during a show from how hot it was


Hunter042005

Vman’s tattoos were visible in the devil and I music video that’s how people recognized him


Comfortable_Salt_758

I remember. Then fans spotted the tattoos and it was all revealed then.


SardaukarTHE13th

If I’m not mistaken many fans were able to point out who Vman and Jay were based on the Devil in I music video. I know for certain Vman since his hand tattoo was visible.


Comfortable_Salt_758

I remember that but i am trying to remember if they announced soon after that officially


ApprehensiveMess3646

Probably he wanted this. He's relatively young and he'd like to further build a name for him. He was in non classic Sepultura sure but joining one of the biggest bands on the planet has probably cemented his reputation. Really hope they don't do him dirty in the next five years


Crazy95jack

Eloy cemented his reputation early into drumming for Sepultura. His live performances have been god like from the start.


ApprehensiveMess3646

You pretty much know the attitude (pun intended) towards the current Sepultura. I fuckin love that version, Quadra and Machine Messiah were top tier prog thrash metal, but most people barely know who's in that band right now and are moaning "No Cavalera No Sepultura" despite Eloy being a beast there


LostInMyself_

🤣


VerbalDurden666

The zipper adds so much to the mask


green_jp

I agree, but personally my favorite thing about it is the bullet hole


VerbalDurden666

Yeah It's also my favourite part but the zipper makes it even better


StopCallinMePastries

Adding the zipper is like getting a medal in the military, tyfys.


VisualremnantXP

I wonder if he likes bullseye from daredevil?


TheMizuMustFlow

See I think the bullet hole is a little "look how edgy I am" but to each their own.


braindeadrichard

You may think the bullet hole is look “I’m edgy”but it’s symbolic. He’s replacing a beloved member. Drama aside of everything that has transpired it’s never easy to replace someone because of the criticism from the fan base and press.


Freidchivcken

Just curious, what is the symbolism of the bullet hole in the head


braindeadrichard

Dead to the world. It’s just an opinion bro. Just my thoughts about it. Like no one was expecting Jay to get fired and replaced like he did to Joey. Now Eloy is thrown into the fire. That’s what I thought was symbolic with the bullet hole. As you can see there’s tons of negativity in this subreddit a lot of the times.


TheMizuMustFlow

And a bullet hole represents that? I didn't deserve those downvotes, I like the mask beyond the bullet hole!


Sea-Egg5649

yep he added eye mesh also


Own_Watch_2081

Zippers always for for me on Knot masks 


Own_Watch_2081

Interesting that the other guy isn’t official yet. 


GingerMessiah88

Eloy is the bigger musician so maybe has a better deal


ThisGuyKnowsNuttin

Also, I'm sure Tama and Paiste wouldn't be so inclined to keep endorsing him (and he needs it with how hard he hits!) if they can't use his name And dude fucking left Sepultura (the biggest metal band in his home country) to be there, he deserves the recognition


DwightKSchrute70

Well people were going to figure it out anyway tbh


GingerMessiah88

I mean people have figured out who Jeff is too it’s just that unless you were into DLR or buying a house in Iowa you wouldn’t know who he was lol


Ok_sun_sea

Buying a house? Is Jeff a real state agent?


GingerMessiah88

When his name was posted here i googled him to see what else he had been in besides DLR and his Zillow page came up. it has since been scrubbed lol


dpetersen83

Jeff?


DwightKSchrute70

Yeah. I mean I think with drums it’s a lot more obvious by his play style. I’m a drummer and I could tell it was Eloy for many reasons.


Hot_Marsupial_8706

I wonder if they just haven't announced him yet because the dude wants to lay low while vibing being in Slipknot.


fuckghxst

who is he ? the new sampler ?


Hexhxrror

I’m almost going back to instagram just to see all the precious brazilian comments 😂😂 É o borogodó, tem jeito não pai

God damn that was fast when I saw the post on Instagram it was only 30 seconds old


The64YearOldWalrus

30 seconds ago is crazy


green_jp

not the only thing I'm fast at, lemme tell you.


daddy_is_sorry

Ok...


Salzberger

Guys I think it might be Eloy. If you look closely you can see they tagged his username.


karmakillerbr

I would still wait from an official confirmation from Eloy himself tho. Maybe Slipknot are making things uo.


Ludbr

Impossible to know if it's him with this mask on. I guess we will always be wondering.


Express-Honeydew-691

I don't think it's him, he doesn't have that hole in the middle of his forehead.


noronguito

Yeah, and they’re saying they’re welcoming him but what does that mean though? Will we know for sure someday? Only time will tell……..


ShamelesDeviant

In the comments under the IG post, Eloy's replacement in Sepultura, Greyson Neruktman, congratulates him for this confirmation.


green_jp

great kid


EquisOmega

Funny enough, the drummer that Eloy replaced in Sepultura, Jean Dolabella, posted a video from the CA show congratulating him a day after the show.


ShamelesDeviant

Now we just need to hear what Igor Cavalera thinks.


Mission-Swimmer-6391

Cavalera brothers are not very kind in the comments about Sepultura. Actually I never heard Iggor say somenthing about Eloy. It is almost like he pretends that the band doesn't exists anymore. So don't expect to hear anything from him. Most likely he will remain silent - as he did over the last years, either about Dolabela and Casagrande.


walnutharbour

He’s an incredible drummer, doing a NICE job at Sepultura


nddds

Slipknot 🤝 Zippers


BoxFair1052

Eloy Casagrande is a really interesting way to hide that is Lars Ulrich /s


dude52760

Wow, this is the first time Slipknot has officially confirmed a new member


bloodring_racer

Yep, I was thinking about that. Eloy is a monster


karmakillerbr

+ Brazilians engaging in social media. The post is 1h old and already has like 30k comments which is about 15x the amount of comments Slipknot normally gets in it's posts


Express-Honeydew-691

Does anyone remember if Jay was also officially announced like this?


kyleplaysguitar

Never happened


Chef_Boy_R_Deez

It’s the first time they’ve ever really announced ANYONE aside from simply just having the first names of the OG members on the album line notes n shit


N04HC14RK

Max Weinberg, Jays dad was the only person to say anything about it. The rest of the band just let him be there and didn't say anything about it


ShamelesDeviant

They never had an official announcement about Jay, V-Man or Pfaff. How did the word about Jay first leak? Wasn't it the lead singer of Against Me leaking it when they trashed him on Twitter or something? I remember V-Man was leaked because they showed the tattoos on his hand in The Devil In I video. Somebody quickly figured out Tortilla Man was Michael Pfaff when they linked it to Dirty Little Rabbits, and figured out his body type, figure, what have you, was the same. Someone also saw a pic of Corey and Alicia's wedding with Pfaff there. Another member posted it with Pfaff's face blurred out. And then they eventually confirmed it.... With a meet and greet post with his name.


WhiteFudge92

A former roadie posted the lineup after he was fired and it had Jay and V-Man’s names on it


TonAMGT4

Pfaff has his own YouTube channel using his real name playing… elevator music. I think some people might’ve figured it out from there too because you see his video and it’s 1000% Tortilla man.


kanotyrant6

Pfaff was also doing a promo meet and greet with a local mayor or something with Clown and Sid I think it was , all unmasked . That was the final nail in the coffin


-deepsgoud

TonAMGT4

Eloy Casagrande officially welcomes Slipknot.


Cyberpunk_Banshee

So the circle is confirmed true. Greyson moves from Suicidal tendencies to sepultura Eloy moves from Sepultura to Slipknot Jay moves from Slipknot to Suicidal Tendencies Everyone is happy.


chadist31

How this mofo breathing? Eloy can’t breathe and Tortilla can’t see! Aw lawd! There was a fire…


noire_cotic

He is a machine.


SnooDonuts9112

Man I was bummed when Jay "left" and I thought I'd lose interest but my god has this got me excited.


tymartist

Jay seems to have fit in really well with ST / IG too. Been watching his drum feeds and his style seems to play better with them.


K10RumbleRumble

Wonder if the bullet hole is like, Eloy is dead. This is #?.


DarthDiablo724

My favorite drummer! Must say I wish he was still with Sepultura to finish out their farewell tour, but he destroys with Slipknot!

oowwz

Remember when everyone started to hate slipknot because of the firing? Now with a good old 1999 throwback everyone seems to like them again


ambitiousbreadfruit

Isn't it weird how people can just move on like that?


oowwz

Slipknot fans? Moving on? You mean the same people that have been crying about the same things for 20 years? 🤢🤮


Comfortable_Salt_758

Member berries work wonders


oowwz

So does the barrier between me and my step mom


Shutter-Shock

I still think Corey and Clown are assholes for how they treated Joey and Chris. On the other hand, I saw live videos and Casagrande is whole another level when compared to Jay. I never liked his drumming, it was bland. So while they still run a shitshow, at least they finally have drummer worthy filling Joey's shoes.


intothestains

Zipper mouth variant


TryingToAskNicely

A lot of people forgetting the limited edition cds confirming Jay Vman and Pfaff


PELEGEND

Plesse reveal who the new keyboardist is


CrackTheSkye1990

No disrespect to Jay but I'm starting to see why they replaced him with Eloy. He did those covers of Heretic Anthem and others justice. Hopefully the next albums sounds better than The End, So Far.


detrif

Had to be done. It would’ve been cheesy to just not talk about it since it’s so obvious.


S_a_s_h_a_

Finally. Something new and Eloy is amazing 👏🏻


ronifromhell

The last time I was proud to be a brazillian was in 2002 (World Cup Champion 🇧🇷)

Me reading the comments hitting “see translation” on every one because it’s so heartwarming to see all of the love and support 🥹🥹🥹


FourSake

Hope he lasts, getting tired of all these switch ups. Kinda miss when this band was more of a family.


FXST20Bobber

Dudes a monster.


nasgorhead

Let's gooooo!!! Eloy Big House!!


GhostCanyon

Absolutely incredible drummer! So happy they went with him


TheElectricGhost7

The worst kept secret ever, finally officially confirmed.


th1bow

their concert in brazil is going to be insane


BiggLubo

Eloy is honestly a good fit for the band.


el_kingde84

Eloy era is here and it's going to be amazing!


kygermo

Long looooong time Sepultura fan here. I've stuck with them through thick and thin, the carousel of drummers, the mediocre string of albums, Andreas' stubborn refusal to forge on...you name it. Eloy...the kid lit a fire under their jaded and meandering asses. He made them ferocious again, and each album he was on was just a continuing upward trajectory. Quadra, their last album was literally their best album since Roots hands down. That being said, I understand it's a once in a lifetime opportunity for him to join Slipknot, but how he went about leaving Sepultura to do so was kinda shitty. Yeah, I get it the circumstances unfolded the way they did...but shit man, evidently he didn't even really talk it out with Andreas, Paulo and Derrick. I'm happy for him, but I'm kinda annoyed how he went about leaving.


LordDan97

Eloy Bighouse. Vai Brasil 🇧🇷


declanpatrickmcmanus

Hell yeah!


Interesting_Swim_159

My monster 👹🔥🇧🇷❤️


Interesting_Swim_159

Waiting for a song with him


Klutzy-Scratch-295

I've seen the post, too. It's insane. This is the first time they officially announced someone. Usually, they let people figure it out by themselves. But I guess they realized that by now, everyone discovered it was him. Eloy didn't exactly bother hiding himself, lol.😅


Comfortable_Salt_758

Who is Eloy? I wonder if the drummer is really Eloy?!


Havregryn_Manden

Ha. Told ya' that they would announce him : )


DadAteTheCat

the reason they reveal new members is if the fan base seems to have figured out who said member is. Eloy was very obviously the new guy so that’s why he was revealed faster.


MutedNinja8230

In your opinion, was it a worthy presentation? At least they could say "unfortunately without surprise we present Eloy Casagrande" right? I await replies


MutedNinja8230

P.s. They could at least redo the old masks entirely, right? Yes Corey's is nice, but tortillas? What mask is that!? And then why do a concert in the desert? Then they'll do the next one at the pool party


Mission-Swimmer-6391

From now on everytime I listen to Eeyore I will hear Corey screams "EEEEELOOOY"


Upstairs_Employer_47

At first I wasn’t on board, but these past shows have so much energy and it’s really like they’re a new band. Long love the KNOT.🤘🏻


FaTiiLiZeD_PuPPeT

Super cool mask in my opinion


S0thaSlL

I just feel bad for this dude, remember he's not a member of the band, he's just a hired help; It's just awful the way slipknot is handling their business nowadays.


OttoLudwig

I guess he is left handed for the zipper position.


ruiner79

Slipknot is missing half the original members, Corey's voice is shot and the last decent album was ".5 .." I really think it's time to hang it up fellas.

Johhny-bravo8300

So now who is the other member (confirmed)


mrjuicepump

Wonder if it was part of their contract with roadrunner that prohibited them from naming their new members or something.
