Slipknot have parted ways with Sid Wilson.

Following a leak from TMZ a few weeks ago, the news was confirmed by the band on social media in a since expired post that was subsequently shared on the official Knotfest Instagram account.

No reason was given for the turntablist's departure, they simply said: "Effective immediately, Slipnot will no longer be associated with Sid Wilson. We wish him the best in his future endeavors."

Wilson has not issued a statement regarding his exit from the band, but has updated his Instagram bio to "@slipknot 1997-2026."

Slipknot released their latest studio album, 'The End, So Far', in 2022. Last year, they put out a 25th anniversary edition of their self-titled debut LP and later this month will be 25 years since the release of their sophomore album 'Iowa'.
