Slipknot Bassist Died Of Accidental Overdose

22nd June 2010

According to a report from DesMoinesRegister.com, Slipknot‘s Paul Gray died of an accidental morphine overdose.

Slipknot bass player Paul Gray died of an accidental overdose of morphine and fentanyl, a medical examiner has ruled.

Gray, 38, did not have a prescription for either drug, police said. The investigation into how he got the drugs is ongoing. Gray’s body was discovered about 10:50 a.m. May 24 by a maintenance worker at TownePlace Suites, 8800 Northpark Drive in Urbandale.

A hypodermic needle lay near the bed, and “all kinds of pills” surrounded Gray, who was hunched over in the corner of the room, according to a 911 call.

Polk County Medical Examiner Dr. Gregory Schmunk said today that it was two injected drugs — fentanyl is a synthetic form of morphine — that killed Gray. The pills did not contribute to his death, Schmunk said.

Gray also suffered from significant heart disease, Schmunk said.

Schmunk completed a death certificate on Friday afternoon.

36 Crazyfists New Album Details

22nd June 2010

36 Crazyfists will release their new album “Collisions and Castaways” on July 27 via Ferret Music. A new track “Reviver” has been released on their new look MySpace, listen to the track now.

“Collisions and Castaways” is “a fierce, dark, crushing collection of eleven tracks that rip from the speaker like a runaway train.” Arguably the band’s heaviest effort to date, it also happens to be a melodic affair and the kind of record 36 CRAZYFISTS and Lindow have wanted to “write ten years ago,” says the singer. “If this was the end of the band, this record is exactly what I wanted our band to do at one time, Maybe a lot of people will think we’re just metalcore, but it’s so much more than that. It’s a heavy record with some big choruses and everything we’ve been about for a long time with a cool metal feel to it that I’ve been wanting.”
