Slipknot drummer to play on next Opeth cd?

[gr1m and tr00]

My friend told me that he got the latest May issue of Metal Edge and on page 25 there is an interview with Joey, the slipknot drummer. And it says int he interview "I played drums on the new Opeth. I play on like 5 songs."

I dont believe this at all really, maybe a typo? But kinda strange I need to check it out.

 

[Sanzen]

No, he's not. Assuming that's actually in the magazine, it's probably an april fools joke.

 

[Rekkr]

It's not true, but it was it would be the stupidest thing Opeth has ever done, musical ethics aside. Lopez is so much better than Jordinson.

 

[Luz]

Past or present that wouldn't happen even in dreams.

I played drums on the new Opeth. I play on like 5 songs."

*stabs self in penis*

 

[NFU]

probably meant otep

 

[NeverIsForever]

probably meant otep

Yeah, looks like it. This interview is too similar for it to be coincidence.

"S&T: Did you clean house before you started production? What’s the timeline on the lineup change?

Otep: Well the drummer left about a year ago...


S&T: And Joey Jordison (of Slipknot) did some of the drums on the record...

Otep: Joey Jordison played six songs on the new record and we’re completely amazed at how that turned out. And the guitar player was released as we were laying down tracks for the new record.

Chalk this up another Otep/Opeth mistake. Idiots.

 

[deliverance]

jordison is a great drummer though, either way.

 

[Kenneth R.]

yeah that's totally untrue.



cause it was me who played on new Opeth.

 

[deliverance]

maybe opeth will have some promo pics for the new album in footie opeth pajamas...just maybe.

 

[Sanzen]

We can only hope.

 

[cthulufhtagn]

i want individually signed, framed footy pajama promo pics...and i want full color. now.

Martin Lopez > Slipknot.

\v/

(Yes, the entire band.)

 

[Birkenau]

All 14 of them!?

 

[Aaron A.]

All 14 of them!?

HAHAHAHAHA.

Yes. ^_^

 

[Ermz]

All 14 of them!?

Nice one.

Alright, personal biases aside, I've heard from many sources that Joey Jordison is a really good drummer though.

 

[Longinus]

He is a jazz drummer and on drummerworld.com you can find a video of him playing some nice stuff. He is no Lopez but he doesnt deserve to be in a band like Slipknot. He could play in much better bands.

 

[Aaron A.]

Nice one.

Alright, personal biases aside, I've heard from many sources that Joey Jordison is a really good drummer though.

I've heard with my own two ears that Martin Lopez is better. Not to discredit Joey, or anything.

 

[Arnold Layne]

Can't stop listening to Sever today its funny you are listening to it Aaron.

I like Joeys work, I think he could play some Opeth, and do a good job of it, but Id rather he didnt
