Change of "Shawn Crahan" to " Shawn Crahan" in third line of first paragraph

Slipknot announced today on their official site that ex-guitarist Donnie Steele will play bass with them during shows this summer. Someone should add it to the article. -- Davemustainesdaddy3 ( talk) 22:54, 10 March 2011 (UTC)
Why don't we change the "genre" section to say "see Below" then have a section on the page labelled "Genre" or something similar, and list the various styles that the band has explored? Personally I think it might make things a bit cleaner, at least genre wise, and might end some of the fighting and stuff. It should be agreeable that their albums each have a different style than the others in a way. Just saying. Might be a terrible idea, I don't know. Agentwaffle ( talk) 00:08, 18 March 2011 (UTC)

Slipknot,(my favorite band for more than 4 years) is now an alternative metal band, which is wrong! Slipknot is a NuMetal band from Iowa, so please change that, and edit the band's genre into Numetal.

The last two lines of the second paragraph of the section Vol. 3: (The Subliminal Verses) and second hiatus (2003–2007) reads: "Released on November 1, 2005 9.0 Live peaked at number 17 on the Billboard album charts.[39] Touring in support of Vol. 3 (The Subliminal Verses) continued through 2004 and up to the end of 2005 before Slipknot went on hiatus for the second time", when it should be: "Released on November 1, 2005 9.0: Live peaked at number 17 on the Billboard album charts.[39] Touring in support of Vol. 3: (The Subliminal Verses) continued through 2004 and up to the end of 2005 before Slipknot went on hiatus for the second time."
The last two lines of the second paragraph of the section All Hope Is Gone, Gray's death and third hiatus (2008–present) reads: "The band released their fourth video album (sic)nesses on September 28[56], where it debuted at No.1 on the Billboard Top Music Video Charts. [57] The DVD features Slipknot's complete live performance at the 2009 Download Festival and a 45 minute film documenting their tour in support of All Hope Is Gone[58], and serves as a tribute to Paul Gray", when it should be: "The band released their fourth video album (sic)nesses on September 28,[56] where it debuted at No.1 on the Billboard Top Music Video Charts.[57] The DVD features Slipknot's complete live performance at the 2009 Download Festival and a 45 minute film documenting their tour in support of All Hope Is Gone,[58] and serves as a tribute to Paul Gray."
And the third paragraph reads: Regarding the continuation of Slipknot, Taylor later told NME that Paul Gray would want them to continue and in that spirit he feels that they should. [60]It has been confirmed that Slipknot will be returning in 2011 to do a small run of shows headlining the Sonisphere Festival starting on June 17th in Athens and concluding on September 25th in Rio de Janeiro as part of the Rock In Rio festival.[61][62][63] Former guitarist Donnie Steele will be filling in for Gray on the tour. [64] Slipknot has also confirmed that they will complete and release their fifth studio album,[65]however Taylor has stated that he doesn't see it happening very soon", when it should be: Regarding the continuation of Slipknot, Taylor later told NME that Paul Gray would want them to continue and in that spirit he feels that they should.[60] It has been confirmed that Slipknot will be returning in 2011 to do a small run of shows headlining the Sonisphere Festival starting on June 17th in Athens and concluding on September 25th in Rio de Janeiro as part of the Rock In Rio festival.[61][62][63] Former guitarist Donnie Steele will be filling in for Gray on the tour.[64] Slipknot has also confirmed that they will complete and release their fifth studio album,[65] however Taylor has stated that he doesn't see it happening very soon."

If you haven't checked out the latest issue of Kerrang! Slipknot have confirmed Donnie as the replacement for Paul Gray (is this the Donnie who was previously in the band, I am not sure?) Also, according to the Slipknot fanpage opium of the people, there are apparently direct quotes from the band members speaking about the 5th album which could be added to the content about the present of the band. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Lordyorae ( talk • contribs) 11:16, 8 June 2011 (UTC)
So I would like to see a source that says that it was indeed for Slipknot if it is going to stay up on the main page. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.160.146.41 ( talk) 09:17, 27 May 2011 (UTC)

I propose that Mick Thomson be merged into Slipknot (band). Thomson is not notable independent of the band. Therefore, he is not notable under WP:BAND. SummerPhD ( talk) 18:16, 16 June 2011 (UTC)
Not done I have noticed a certain metalcore element in some of their songs. PARTICULARLY Vol 3 and AHIG I might be crazy and it just be a personal opinion. Is anyone going to object to me either maybe looking for some sources of this for adding in the genre\infobox section? DCcomicslover ( talk) 20:57, 28 August 2011 (UTC)DCcomicslover

Corey Taylor's page redirects here as a link to his Tenacious D cover band, Audacious P, but the latter band isn't mentioned anywhere. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.140.65.159 ( talk) 05:47, 16 November 2011 (UTC)
This band has nothing to do with heavy metal music whatsoever. I understand some misinformed people with little knowledge of music may interpret their "heavy" sound as metal, but Slipknot is certainly not a metal band. Please, change their genre to "Nu Metal", which is the music style they play (I understand, though, that the term "Nu Metal" may be misleading, as it may lead readers to believe it's a metal genre, but unfortunately it's the most commonly accepted name for the style they play). 190.17.10.169 ( talk) 15:07, 3 December 2011 (UTC)

the reason i want a request for the editing of the slipknot(band) page is of the fact that i love slipknot and that i want to get the facts straight and make them truthful.
