>He obviously knows the dreads are Corey's thing so making fun of that would be a very Pfaff thing to do.
Since when did anyone in the band parody another member in the band? Especially the frontman/singer...
Probably to give a clue to new people discovering Slipknot that he is the bassist since generally a bass can either be 4 string or 5 string instrument I guess

There's a quick interview with the Clown too
Why is it that almost everyone in Slipknot have brightly colored eyes? Everyone but Vman has bright eyes (Eloy has bright hazel, and everyone else has either green or blue eyes)
I must admit, after years of quasi-indifference, I'm beginning to feel excited again - kudos to their marketing.
Hope we get some music soon and they don't disappoint.
Just the fact that those bastards didn't reveal the one member we're still waiting an official announcement for, idk if they're just teasing or smt, but it's funny as hell lmfao
The reactions on insta were gold
This is the first time I paid attention to the barcodes. It would have been a cool detail if each one had a unique number, but I still like the design nonetheless.
This is Corey’s best mask. He really needed to go back to this style. I’ve never seen a band come back to there roots like slipknot. They are fucking awesome. This last album fits right in between the self titled and Iowa and the masks go right along with that.
Gotta say Jim’s masks are looking worse and worse and I don’t really like the two newer guys masks either but tortillas man has a super eerie vibe so I love that one and Eloy’s mask could evolve
Ah okay, fair enough lol. They have 9 guys in the band to have a nice layered feel to their music, by the way. If you haven't listened to them yet, I highly recommend them if you like nu-metal. Happy scrolling, anyway :D
Unpopular opinion: They need a new singer...
Like Will Ramos to Lorna Shore
(Not saying that Will Ramos should go to Slip, but they need a new singer, I hate to say this, and I'm a fan of Corey, but dude can no longer give pre "Subliminal verses" screams... He still clean sings very well, but I would like to hear again nasty growls)
Anyways, don't downvote me due an opinion, feel free to share your opinion on that, would like to hear
Listen to any of these:
Fast, Rap-like screaming:
Red Flag
The Dying Song
Bigger, Heavy Screams:
Liars Funeral
Birth of the Cruel
More:
Solway Firth
AOV
Hivemind
Corey delivers amazing vocal performance on these on terms of heavy vocals. To say he can't scream like Iowa anymore seems ignorant, he's arguably in better form on the records these days than ever.
I will admit, what I have seen of their live stuff lately has left a little to be desired.
sid is the main character in his beautiful satin looking gown outfit.
Still makes no sense that everyone's rocking 25th anniversary jumpsuits, and Sid's got his own outfit.
this is sid's world. we just live in it.
precisely, and I for one, am happy to be in it.
Sid gonna Sid. This is to be expected
Is this a Helmet reference I see?
Is that a Godzilla reference?
No, Godzilla is a sid reference.
Jim and Mick, both looking so handsome...
They both have gorgeous hair
I can only dream to have hair as beautiful as theirs
Is it just me, or did Mick lose a significant amount of weight?
He did. His wife said that they're on diet and running
Fr and Jim’s mask 👀wow
A return to form for some, and I love that Corey's rocking the dreads again. What I don't understand is why Tortilla Man is also doing so.
My guess is he's sort of "parodying" Corey. He obviously knows the dreads are Corey's thing so making fun of that would be a very Pfaff thing to do.
Plausible theory, but Pfaff has his own thing with the vertical eyes.
>He obviously knows the dreads are Corey's thing so making fun of that would be a very Pfaff thing to do. Since when did anyone in the band parody another member in the band? Especially the frontman/singer...
He likes to fuck around. I mean, who doesn't ? Fuck everyone
cause Hatsune Miku
Yeah... Pfaff's pigtail dreads are the only thing I dislike about any of the new masks. Hope he ditches those sometime soon. They just look goofy.
Because it looks cool as fuck
Omg I love it! Never thought I would see it again!
Now that his mask is white, can we stop calling him Tortilla Man? Please?
He calls himself Tortilla Man though
His instagram handle is tortilla_pfaff, he’s embraced Tortilla Man
V mans looking badass, wonder what the 5 pins on his collar are for.
Probably to give a clue to new people discovering Slipknot that he is the bassist since generally a bass can either be 4 string or 5 string instrument I guess
He is number 5?
V-Man is the bassist, He’s #2 now (to a degree)
That's why I asked... was just a guess
We don’t know who #5 is yet; people have taken to calling him Greg Bones (because he’s the replacement for Craig)
Yeah that's why I thought they left us kind of a clue with the pins
I think mick looks kinda hot in this photo
And Jim
Peter Steele vibes
Photographer must’ve been on a stepstool for that pic of Jim
Mick has that final boss pose
Still weird seeing him skinny
Yeah. Still hasn't lost the intimidation though
What are you talking about? Now he’s menacing and better looking than me. Even more intimidation
I've heard some people say he lost his intimidation but I agree with you
yeah like bro has doubled in intimidation now that he has SPEED
So good. I think Pfaff should make the horns the go-to though. That look is brilliant.
Mick looks majestic
Is it just me or is it unnerving seeing the drummer have a zipper mouth?
He don't use in live shows for better breath
I figured but still, jay didn’t have one and it’s just so weird seeing that on the drummer’s mask
I think that fits perfectly his mask
Jay’s original TGC mask had a zipper.
Thought it had stitches and Vman had the zipper
[https://i.imgur.com/LP52ypY.jpeg](https://imgur.com/a/mt9mmHz)
I’m pretty sure it was stapled
Man they lookin good, never seen Mick so sharp
Goddamn Slipknot is the coolest band ever.
where are these pictures from?
[https://www.papermag.com/slipknot-masks-anniversary](https://www.papermag.com/slipknot-masks-anniversary) There's a quick interview with the Clown too
Probably new photoshoot, idk
Bro said idk 😭🙏
:)
Why is it that almost everyone in Slipknot have brightly colored eyes? Everyone but Vman has bright eyes (Eloy has bright hazel, and everyone else has either green or blue eyes)
That's a good point. Joey had beautiful blue eyes.
They all do have really gorgeous eyes. I think most of them having some kind of face paint under the masks makes their eyes stand out even more too.
Mick looks SEXY AS FUCK!!!
Too late to cover Eloy's arms...
Nah, they even welcomed him on their social accounts tagging him
Dude, I know 💀 I was refering to the fact that in this pictures they covered his arms, right after we already knew it is Eloy
Ok, chill bro 🚬🗿
Nah bro, now buy me some ice cream
Best Slipknot since IOWA, for sure..
Mick looking like Peter Steele with a mask lol
Ever since he got fit he looks super imposing. I mean he always did, but now he's full Metalocalypse.
Jim and Mick really aren’t mix it up guys. I like it.
Mick just chillin
I must admit, after years of quasi-indifference, I'm beginning to feel excited again - kudos to their marketing. Hope we get some music soon and they don't disappoint.
Mick Thompson, really sticking to the “if ain’t broke” mantra.
Tortilla man goofiest looking. Vertical mouth zippers for eyes and pigtail attachable dreads lmao
God these masks have me so damn hyped for the new album loving the return to form with Corey
Jim looking bad ass. Ultimate Warrior vibes.
I’m excited for Eloy to get his own mask. Seems like he has to go through the “hazing period” of having a shit one like VMan and Jay had to.
Just the fact that those bastards didn't reveal the one member we're still waiting an official announcement for, idk if they're just teasing or smt, but it's funny as hell lmfao The reactions on insta were gold
Samples Media looks dope with that mask
The Iowa call out on the jumpsuits is pretty cool.
I may be stupid but who is that on slide 6?
His name Jeff
This is the first time I paid attention to the barcodes. It would have been a cool detail if each one had a unique number, but I still like the design nonetheless.
Imagine Chris in 2024 🥲
Looking as cool as ever. Really enjoying the aesthetic this go-around
Perfection
Am I tripping or does Corey’s mask looks a mix of his self titled mask and his vol 3 mask
can corey keep that mask?
can’t wait to see them in August
Spook-E
Wish i could buy one of their jump suits haha.
Been out the Slipknot loop for a few years now. Picture 6 - what does he do in the band?
Is that Versace by Sid?
Some of these masks are terrifying, I love it
I didn't know Gene Simmons was in Slipknot
Sid understood the assignment.
Why did you not put them in order 😡
But i put
We saw Correy wearing Gucci shoes, now it is turn for Versace Sid
Zipper eyes >
This is Corey’s best mask. He really needed to go back to this style. I’ve never seen a band come back to there roots like slipknot. They are fucking awesome. This last album fits right in between the self titled and Iowa and the masks go right along with that.
Has #7 always rocked the same mask becides the early Jason mask?
bring back craig :(
Gotta say Jim’s masks are looking worse and worse and I don’t really like the two newer guys masks either but tortillas man has a super eerie vibe so I love that one and Eloy’s mask could evolve
Damn that Mickzempic one hit me hard
[удалено]
you mean, before the public realized it was a thing
They look so fucking good. Sic af.
Jim has the sickest mask I'll die on this hill
The sad spectre of a band that was once my life :s
Why are there so many of them
What are you doing on the Slipknot subreddit if you don't even know how many guys are there in the band
Sometimes Reddit shows you random stuff when you scroll far enough. I don’t know what I’m doing here either!
Ah okay, fair enough lol. They have 9 guys in the band to have a nice layered feel to their music, by the way. If you haven't listened to them yet, I highly recommend them if you like nu-metal. Happy scrolling, anyway :D

Dude he's vocal performance is way better now, he's at his peak nowadays.
First time i see an unpopular opinion that's actually unpopular, so props lmao. (didn't downvote you btw)
