After announcing the departure of Craig Jones, Slipknot deleted the publication; fans speculate marketing ploy
O Slipknot announced that Craig Jones, keyboardist, is no longer part of the group after 27 years. In a note published on social media last Wednesday, the 7th, the band did not explain the reason for leaving, but wished “all the best” for the musician in the future.
One fact that drew attention, however, is that the post was deleted on the same day, with no new information given to the public. Some fans have speculated that the note is nothing more than a marketing ploy to advertise a new mask for Jones.
A few hours later, the Slipknot published an image of an unidentified member. Check out:
