Joey Jordison (born Nathan Jonas Jordison on April 26, 1975 in Des Moines, Iowa) is the drummer for Slipknot, a nine-man crossover band from his home town. He writes some of the lyrics for the band's songs and plays guitar as well. Jordison is a former member of Avanga and Modifidious, both of which he left for Slipknot. He was also in Anal Blast, a side project of Modifidious. In addition to drumming for Slipknot, he plays guitar for the Murderdolls with Wednesday 13, a side project.
Jordison has played drums for Metallica at the 2004 Download Festival at Donnington due to Lars Ulrich's injury. He is good friends with Marilyn Manson and was involved with remixing Manson's Fight Song. He also appeared in Manson's video for the song Tainted Love.
In addition to creating the tribal "S" logo that all the band members have as a tattoo, he is known for his extremely fast double bass style of drumming and a solo that he performs whilst strapped into a rotating drum kit. He confesses that this is influenced by Motley Crue drummer Tommy Lee.
