Slipknot bassist Paul Gray has been found dead in a hotel room in America, aged 38. The founding member of the group was discovered by an employee of the Town Plaza hotel in Urbandale, Des Moines, Iowa – where Slipknot hail from.<\/p>\n

Police have said that foul play in Gray’s death is not suspected but that a full autopsy and investigation is being planned. It is believed that this will take place today, May 25.<\/p>\n

Jamey Jasta of Hatebreed<\/strong> paid tribute to Gray, as did Korn, in the video below:<\/p>\n

“Paul was a stand-up guy and a great musician. He and Slipknot changed the face of rock music as we know it. Just about every metal band member from 1999 onward owes him a salute. My condolences to his band, family and fans. We’ll miss you dearly, Paul. We are eternally grateful to you.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
