Former Slipknot drummer Jay Weinberg has released a statement about his departure from the band. Weinberg originally joined the band in 2014 following the departure of Joey Jordison, but was let go last week after the band made a "creative decision" to continue without him.
Writing on social media, Weinberg said, "I sometimes wonder what it would be like to pay a visit to my wide-eyed, 10-year-old self – falling head over heels in love with a new and exciting sound and culture – and tell him all about the last 10 years. Even on the hardest days, I'd like to think he'd be stoked about the adventure that was in store for him.
