Watch drum cam footage of Slipknot's Eloy Casagrande performing Disasterpiece

New Slipknot drummer Eloy Casagrande has shared drum cam footage of him performing the band's song Disasterpiece during a recent show.

The clip can be viewed below.

Former Sepultura man Casagrande was confirmed as Slipknot's new drummer last month, replacing Jay Weinberg who was let go in November 2023.

Following Weinberg's dismissal, which the band described as a creative decision, fans were quick to speculate that Casagrande would be hired after he left Sepultura in February.

Casagrande explained his decision to switch allegiances by saying: "The big thing, the reason I agreed to audition, was the end of Sepultura. The band was going to break up, and I didn’t want to stop playing drums at the age of 33.

"I had a chat with Slipknot, asked about their schedule and if it would be possible to juggle the two bands, but they said no, it wouldn’t be possible, I’d be exclusive.

“So it was my decision to leave Sepultura."

Slipknot are working on new material and have a number of live dates lined up for the rest of 2024.
