RIP Paul Gray

And yet, another musician's death is upon us. This time Paul Gray, bassist of Slipknot. The cause of death is unknown, and there's going to be/has been an autopsy on Tuesday 25th May.

The worst of the worst being he and his wife were expecting their first child :(

Discuss children.

Well, I think that it's very important for children to -

Nah, but seriously, if this was because of drugs, I wouldn't be too surprised.
Accidental ODing seems to be the norm for musicians, and it's getting pretty fucking old. You shouldn't have to get fucked up and party hard to be a rock star, assuming that's what killed him.
I didn't really listen to the band a whole lot, but as for the health of the band, bass players are pretty easy to replace, unless you're in Primus or Red Hot Chili Peppers.

Sad to hear another musician gone, but it's also sad to hear the reason he's gone, assuming it's because of an OD.
 
Never really got into Slipknot, but a lot of my friends are really depressed over this. Condolences to the rest of the band, and especially to his wife and unborn child. RIP.
 
R.I.P, it probably is a drug overdose but I don't think Slipknot will be the same without him, he was there from the start, I never expected this.
 
The Rev, Dio, and now Paul Gray....who's next? = \
 
Well in that case, good.
