New Interview With Chris Fehn Up Now!

New Interview With Chris Fehn Up Now!

Chris Fehn recently sat down and talked with the Argus Leader. You can check out some interview parts below…

During a recent phone interview, Fehn says fast, precise rhythms are important to the band's sound, but the vocals top it off. Both scream-o vocals and the more melodic singing is done by bandmate Corey Taylor.

"He does it all," Fehn says, "Although I do back him up on some of the songs."

Fehn helps with the rapid-fire, machine-gun beat that gives Slipknot a unique sound.

Joey Jordison plays a more traditional trap set, with more percussions by Shawn Crahan. Sometimes Fehn plays the huge kettle drums that travel with the band on tour.

"Yeah, we bring along our percussion rigs - mine's like an aircraft simulator: It moves back and forth and in all directions, really cool," says Fehn, 37. "And Shawn's - Clown's - goes up 20 feet into the air or so. Clown and I are the percussion players, and Joey is an amazing drummer."
