Police say the bassist for the Iowa metal band Slipknot has been found dead in a suburban Des Moines hotel room.
Urbandale police say a hotel employee found 38-year-old Paul Dedrick Gray dead in a room at the Town Plaza Hotel. Foul play wasn't suspected.
The Polk County Medical Examiner's Office plans an autopsy Tuesday.
Most Slipknot members grew up in the Des Moines area. The band, known for its grotesque masks, released its first album in 1999. It sold more than 1 million copies.

I wasn't a fan, but 38 is too damn young.
