Chris Fehn Throws Shade at Slipknot Years After Settling Lawsuit With the Band

Former Slipknot percussionist Chris Fehn revealed he is only missing one thing during his time with the band: his fans.

Fehn played a huge role in Slipknot's career as he worked with the band on all its albums through ".5: The Gray Chapter" in 2014. He was soon replaced by their then-touring percussionist, nicknamed Tortilla Man, who was later revealed to be Michael Pfaff.

Nearly a decade after his exit, he broke his silence about his current relationship with his fans.

Chris Fehn Says He Only Misses Fans

The percussionist recently appeared in his first interview since his departure from the band. He revealed to ex-MOTÖRHEAD guitarist Phil Campbell's son, host Dane Campbell, on the "Drum For the Song" podcast that his fans have been supportive of him even after leaving Slipknot.

With his past bad blood with the band, he revealed that he only misses his supporters who became the "only great part" during his active years.

"That stage performance and seeing them and seeing their reaction was the best part. The rest of it can f**k off," he said. "It's kind of like any band, though. That's the best part. The rest of it is touring, flights, personalities, this and that, this and that."

Although he said he misses playing live and seeing fans, he clarified that everything is all good now years after his exit.

Chris Fehn Sued Slipknot

Before his first interview since his departure, Fehn got involved in a legal battle with Slipknot. He alleged that the band had not properly compensated him during his touring and recording years with the group before his dismissal in 2019.

He sued Slipknot members Corey Taylor and Michael Shawn Crahan after they reportedly told him that the band's income was funneled through one company before splitting their shares. However, he alleged how he discovered that other members received more money through other Slipknot's businesses.

As a result, he demanded a full forensic accounting done so he could get the money he believed he was owed.

After the settlement, the court declared that the case was voluntarily discontinued "with prejudice"'; thus, the percussionist could no longer refile the same claim in a lawsuit.

Meanwhile, Taylor addressed the accusations on Twitter saying that fans believed them amid Fehn's "wrongful accusation" of stealing money.
