those are infinitely cooler than the old masks

the old masks were epic-bellend-tastic.


..

"Are these the scariest Slipknot masks ever? Are they the most detailed? Where do you think they got their inspiration from?"

These are the thoughts that inhabit a Slipknot fan's mind 24/7


Corey's is lame, Jim Root looks like a member of Kiss and Joey is trying to be Jesus or sommat

Luckily Craig is still around to actually be mental- that must be soooo difficult to wear.


Sid looks like some kind of camp robot

who has to pick tea leaves for a living.


Corey Taylor - minimalist

Have you heard the album yet?


yep

average

irony is trivium's is GREAT


believe it


LIES!


Is Matt Heafy still singing?

Then i can't believe it.


matt heafy is

james hetfield is NOT

make of that what you will


christ

are these guys still going?

do they still have fans / are they popular, etc?

for me, they'll always be one of the great mysteries of my youth and growing up. used to love them for about six months.

in retrospect, more embarrassing than liking any other band.


"Custom percussion"

So that's what whacking a massive barrel is classed as.


cool masks

cool band


but

i've never quite understood this, are they meant to be scary? they just look like the gimps that escaped.
i KNOW this is a stock response but i genuinely just don't get it


yeah, i don't get it either

it's like a lot of the metal 'look', it's a lot lamer/funnier than it is scary.


it's so weird

i HATED this band when i was a teenager and now i'm in my mid twenties i listened back to some of their stuff and really like it, masks are fucking cool but they'll never beat the phil collins 3!


phil collins 3

high five!


Joey Jordison

looks like a gothic jesus


there is

space to comment under the photos
by the way
thansk


you mean make comments on other internets?

i'll pass on that i think!


hahaha


I've commented

This site looks great by the way. I've been aware of it for a while, but just properly checked it out for the first time.


yeah i'm sure i read somewhere

that some of the others in the band are actually a bit creeped out by him at times. this may well just be hyperbole, but yeah...


that's what i thought

i heard him and jim don't get along and he only talks to shawn. like the rest of them don't pretend they're not normal people.
i also read an interview with a producer saying he's just a bit weird and never talks


I don't like the band,

but those new masks are pretty cool.


agreed

bad band...fantastic stage gear
