When he died I had no idea how vital and important Paul was to Slipknot.

I thought he was just the bass player and that he didn’t contribute that much. But the more I learn about Paul the more I realize just how essential he was to the band.

I used to think Paul wasn’t that important because he barely spoke, stayed in the background and was just kind of there.

But he was actually one of the most important members of Slipknot even without being the frontman.

Paul was one of the leaders of the band. He wrote and composed most of the songs on the first two albums.

He was the one who kept the band together and he knew all the members better than anyone else.

Without Paul Slipknot wouldn’t have been able to release their self-titled album or Iowa.

Paul was Slipknot.
