iRock Nashville Music News Update – 90 sec – 2026-08-01 5:45 PM
In a surprising turn of events, Sid Wilson, the turntablist for the iconic metal band Slipknot, has broken his silence following reports of his firing from the group. While fans are left speculating about his status with the band, Wilson has taken to social media to promote his new independent merch store, sidthe3rdshop.com.
According to a report from TMZ, Wilson was reportedly ‘permanently’ ousted from Slipknot, a role he has held since the late 90s. The news has sent shockwaves through the metal community, with fans eagerly searching for confirmation from both Wilson and the band. So far, no official statements have been made.
In the midst of this turmoil, Slipknot guitarist Jim Root advised fans to be cautious about what they read online, urging them to take a moment to process the information before jumping to conclusions. Meanwhile, speculation about Wilson’s personal life has also surfaced, particularly following his split from fiancée Kelly Osbourne earlier this year.
Despite the uncertainty surrounding his future with Slipknot, Wilson’s decision to launch a merch store at this moment is a savvy business move, capitalizing on the heightened attention. As fans await more clarity, one thing is certain: Sid Wilson is making waves, both in and out of the band.
