In March 2019, he was expelled from the membership because he filed a lawsuit against the collective, which allegedly had a shadow income.

Christopher Michael Chris Fen was born on February 24, 1973, in the heart of the U.S. state of Iowa and spent his youth in the densely populated city of Des Moines.

After becoming a student at Wayne University, Christopher began his sports career and was a play-kicker for a while, taking a throw from the feet and hitting a field goal, but lost interest in the sport and gave up football due to lack of chances in professional competitions.

Back in his homeland, Feng befriended percussionist Sean Craven, and then met the musicians from Slipknot. He often visited their rehearsals and gave creative arguments a jokey turn.

Against the background of a bright stage career about the personal life of Chris is known little, but in his "Instagram" there are photos with his son and beloved wife.

Also, a number of published pictures show that the percussionist continues to play golf and spends all his free time with friends and family.

In the late 1990s, inspired by mate.Feed.Kill.Repeat. Chris asked Mick Thompson to give him a place in the band and, after receiving a demo with new songs, became a drummer and backing vocalist. Wearing a Pinocchio mask with a long white nose, he debuted in the song Spit It Out, and his manner of presentation was approved by the band.

During the recording of the 2nd album, Fen mastered the skills of a percussionist and simultaneously worked as an installer and electrician to provide for himself with the means for life. But the arrival of guitarist James Root, as well as a new image of multicolored jumpsuits, instilled confidence in Corey Taylor and other musicians in success and creative optimism.

However, before the release of the studio album Iowa, which contained songs The Heretic Anthem, Left Behind and My Plague, the band had a disagreement over the tour, which suppressed bassist Paul Gray. This led to the departure of many of the participants who last appeared on THE DVD Disasterpieces.

This led to a break in activity, during which Chris was without a mask, because he was not involved in music projects and engaged in work and golf. And after reuniting the rested team, he was pleased with the 1st place in the Billboard' 200, which received 12 tracks included in the album All Hope Is Gone.

The success of this brainchild of the group led to the appearance of The Fen's image on the screen, and his creepy Pinocchio costume was used in the film "Harold and Kumar - 2". In addition, percussionist Slipknot participated in the band's longest tour and played dozens of concerts in Europe and America from 2008 to 2009. Then the work stopped again due to the unexpected death of Paul Gray, who had a cardiac arrest due to an overdose of opium alkaloide.

After the tragedy, Chris collaborated with Will Haven, replacing the departed bass player named Mike Martin. In 2011, the team recorded the album Voir Dire, where the most popular and successful tracks were The Siege and When the Walls Close In.

After that, the musician again dressed in a mask and continued to develop the creative biography of Slipknot, releasing a single and the release of the 5th album and playing concerts with the team Korn.

In 2018, Chris continued to work with the band and contributed to the addition of her discography, recording songs for We Are Not Your Kind. He also appeared in a single, the only one released in four years, and was involved in the filming of a music video for a song called All Out Life.

In March 2019, it was reported that Chris had left the group after filing a fraud lawsuit against the leaders of Slipknot. According to the lawyers, the vocalist and other members of the collective suppressed the personality of a fellow musician and concealed from him real income.

Now Feng is rumored to be willing to resume work and return to the team, posting photos of the past days, but lawyers are keeping him from this step and call to avoid cheaters and traitors.
