Slipknot have announced that original member Donnie Steele will rejoin the metal band this summer.<\/p>\n

It follows the death of bass guitarist Paul Gray last year.<\/p>\n

The band are due to headline the Sonisphere festival in July and are playing other live shows across Europe.<\/p>\n

A statement on the band’s website said: “Donnie was great friends with Paul and we can’t think of a better way to celebrate his memory than with someone who was there at the beginning.”<\/p>\n

It continued: “Donnie was in the band at the very beginning, and rather than get an outsider, we thought it would be a fitting tribute to Paul to play with someone from within the family.<\/p>\n

“The eight of us are looking forward to being onstage again and honouring Paul’s legacy with our families in Europe and Brazil this summer.”<\/p>\n

Donnie Steele left Slipknot in 1996.<\/p>\n

His replacement Paul Gray died last May of an accidental morphine overdose. <\/p>\n

Tributes to the 38-year-old were held at last summer’s Download festival and rock magazine Kerrang’s! annual awards in August. <\/p>\n

The Iowa band’s last studio album, All Hope Is Gone, debuted at number one in the US Billboard charts in 2008.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
