Two years since Paul Gray

[Veldar]

It's been two years since paul gray tragictly died from an acidental overdose and was wondering what everyone thought of him his best song etc

Sound like Paul Gray? Just scoop your EQ and play with a pick.

Two years since he died?

And nothing of value was lost.

The Song "Confessions" off the album "MFKR" is my favourite by him. If i remember correctly it was around a year after he started playing Bass and it's a brilliant example of Paul's playing. It's nothing like what people see Slipknot as nowadays, very funky actually.

I'm not glad he died, but anyone who uses hard drugs shall reap what they sow. No such thing as an 'accidental' overdose...

True but still sad

Though I agree, I don't think that is necessary. He is dead, let it go. I am sure you also listen to bad music, in fact everybody, ever, listens to bad music.

Why would you say that?

I think his best work is the song"IOWA" sure it is overally simple but, it in my opinion is the best work he ever did. I think that song alone is the best Slipknot song besides "Purity".

That song ("Iowa") is like a trip I often times feel like I'm having a out of body experience when I listen too it. It has become one of my favorite songs ever by anyone.
But, specifically my favorite song by Paul and Slipknot.

You woulden't say that if paul mccartney died

People like cliff burton still inspire bassists and i know lots of people slipknot inspired to start playing, Paul gray inspired me to keep with the bass as a song writer and as a player

Why are ya' hiding I would say it no doubt. The Beatles suck imo. If there so great why don't any of their music videos or movies come on anymore? I'm not talking about the doc's or specials or occasional tributes either.
I mean all those movies like Help, Yellow Submarine, and Hard Days Night? You wanna know why cause they don't hold up if you tried watching yellow sub you'd need to be high or you'd get a headache or vertigo.

As far as Paul Gray he helped convince me to pick up bass too. The other reason being my parents said no to drums at the time which looking back is probably a good thing.
