Jim Root has also grown tired of the long wait for Slipknot's oft-delayed 'Look Outside Your Window' and humorously threatened to do something about it.
Update (5:45PM ET): This story has been amended with a statement from Stone Sour confirming that Jim Root is in fact no longer in the band.
Earlier this year, guitarist Jim Root sat out Stone Sour's tour with the reason given that he was concentrating his efforts on writing music for Slipknot's next album. However, now the band has announced that it has parted ways with Root.
