🚨Sid Wilson Reportedly Out of Slipknot After Nearly Three Decades
In a surprising development, longtime Slipknot DJ and keyboardist Sid Wilson has reportedly been permanently dismissed from the band after nearly 27 years.
According to a report from TMZ, sources close to the band claim Wilson was informed on Friday afternoon that his time with Slipknot had come to an end. As of now, no official reason for his departure has been announced by either Wilson or the band.
Wilson was one of Slipknot’s original nine members, joining the Iowa metal giants in 1999 and becoming known for his energetic stage presence, turntable work, and ever-evolving masks. His departure marks another significant lineup change for the band, following the exits of Craig Jones and Chris Fehn, as well as the losses of bassist Paul Gray in 2010 and drummer Joey Jordison in 2021.
The reported news comes just months after Wilson’s highly publicized split from Kelly Osbourne, though there has been no indication that the two situations are related.
At the time of publication, Slipknot has not released an official statement regarding Wilson’s reported exit.
