Slipknot ended the year with a shocking statement: they parted ways with Joey Jordison. The band, who is definitely still in writing mode, kept mum on the topic save for an oddly-timed interview with frontman Corey Taylor the day after the announcement, but I guess Taylor has been getting a lot of feedback from fans maggots and decided to take to Twitter to reassure everybody that things are going to be fine.
Taylor posted the following update on Twitter last night:
For those who think The Knot are falling apart, you are greatly and sadly mistaken.
Bring On 2014.
Great Things Are Coming.
Stay Tuned…

For his part, Joey Jordison has yet to make a statement, but we have heard through intermediaries that he is not pleased with how things went down. Maybe we'll get his side of the story in 2014. The band has yet to comment on who will be replacing Jordison, perhaps they could use our suggestions for 10 possible replacements.
