First Paul Gray, now this. Karma sucks. It catches up. And when bad karma ripens, no one likes it. Why? No one likes it because it's called "bad" (akusala) because of the kind of karmic-results (vipaka and phala) it yields. Unlike God, the Buddha doesn't like and dislike how people behave and so calls somethings "good" and others "bad." The Buddha saw that some actions (deeds, intentions, karma) led to unpleasant consequences and others to pleasant ones. That was the decider. What leads to suffering and greater suffering is labelled "bad," unwholesome, or unskillful. What leads to the end of suffering is good, wholesome, skillful, profitable, fit to done, and not a cause for remorse in the future. We reap (yield) what we sow (plant). A short life is not a good sign. Were inimical forces (hungry ghosts, demons, jealous lovers, angry adversaries...) involved in his premature death?
Nathan Jonas "Joey" Jordison (April 26, 1975–July 26, 2021) was best known as the nu-, speed-, death-. thrash-, alt-metal band Slipknot's co-founder and drummer. He was an American musician and songwriter and guitarist for the horror-punk band Murderdolls.
Jordison grew up in Des Moines, Iowa, with his parents and two sisters. He was given his first drum kit at the age of 8. He performed with many bands early in his career.

Then in the summer of 1995, he joined the group The Pale Ones, which would later change their name to Slipknot.
Jordison played in Slipknot from their formation until his departure from the band in December of 2013, when it seems he was fired. But accounts differ. Of Slipknot's nine-member lineup, which lasted from 1999–2010, Jordison was the third to join. He performed on four studio albums and produced the live album 9.0: Live.
He was also the drummer and founder of Scar the Martyr, which formed in 2013 and disbanded in 2016. Outside his major projects, Jordison performed with other metal groups such as Rob Zombie, Metallica, Korn, Ministry, Otep, and Satyricon.
Jordison was also known for his session work, which includes performances on many albums for many artists. He used several drum brands including Pearl and ddrum.
Before his death, he was playing for the band Sinsaenum. More
