The making of slipknot!
There are 9 people in slipknot. Slipknot was formed by Shawn Crahan (no.6) and good friend Anders Colsefini (an ex-slipknot member). One winter, while helping Shawn with some welding jobs, they got into talking and decided to form a band. Shawn called Paul Gray (no.2) at LA and asked him if he's interested to give it a try. They soon started gathering other band members to come jam with them. Joey Jordison (no. 1) from Paul's former band Anal Blast, Donnie Steele (dont know who he is!) from Body Pit and Josh Brainard (ex-member) from Modifidious. The band soon started to play around the whole town and released a self-titled album entitled Mate Feed Kill Repeat which was produced by Sean McMahon (no idea). The album was limited to 1000 copies and went out fast. The band even garnered the local radio stations' Battle Of The Bands title in 1996 not long after the albums release. Donnie Steele left the band and was then replaced by Craig Jones (no.5). Craig left the Guitars part later and decided to focus more on Keyboards and Sampling for the band. Mick Thomson (no.7) , from the band Body Pit was recruited to take the Guitars part instead. |
