Fast forward to this past Thursday when Slipknot released the video for “Before I Forget”—which was shot entirely by fans…on their phones.

It didn't take long for one fan to call out Taylor tweeting, “Ya smack dudes phones outta their hand but then make a video with fan's phone footage? Can I use my phone or not, man?” Instead of lashing out on the fan like some may have, Taylor saw the error and acknowledged it by calling himself an asshole.
