Which Slipknot mask do you think is the best?
-
Micks masks just fit him perfect he’s just a big tall dude very menacing looking just perfect for him the way it looks
-
Joeys All hope is gone mask epitomizes his drumming skills... As a GOD.
-
I always loved Joey's masks. The Japanese Kabuki mask seemed to suit him fantasticly. Rest easy Joey and Paul
-
Sid, over time actually seems to slowly become human. Corey's keeps becoming more human as well, with the last being a burn mask... almost close to being fully healed!
-
rest in peace Joey Jordison.
-
Joey's masks have always been my favorites, followed by Clown's, and Micks. I loved Paul's original pig mask too. Rest in Peace, Paul and Joey, may your legacies be legendary.
-
“Pentagram” except there’s 9 points, making it a nonagram where all 9 points represent the 9 members of the band
-
Corey's "chipmunk" mask, looked like he cut up a plastic milk jug
-
RIP Joey. Still can’t believe it. Joey and Mick have always been my favorite masks too.
-
A couple of things. Corey's first mask was an altered, "Crash Test Dummy", not a, "bondage mask". Also, Jay's mask had a star on the forehead, with 9 points on it. A, "pentagram", is exactly what it says. Penta means five. It would be a pentagram if it were a 5 pointed star. However, it is a 9 pointed star, obviously symbolizing the number of members in the band. Other than that, this is great 😊.

Mick’s mask was so legendary to me as a kid. I loved the intimidating look. It matched the music so well to me.
-
Joeys masks were always my favorite because you never knew what could happen his ahig with the spike crown was amazing
-
Cory has such an amazing voice. I just started listening to his audiobook and his sense of humor cracks me up.
-
Corey's subliminal versus mask has always been my favorite. Up until now his new revealed mask for the "we are not your kind tour" also created by savini i believe i heard. That has a big alien vibe imo. Joey has always been my favorite member. His drumming blew my mind from day 1 and has been my biggest inspiration along side gene hoglan, me wanting to play the drums. Joey's final thorn mask is my favorite version.
-
I have always loved Mick's horror style mask!! I also liked Corey's mask when it had the dreadlocks too.
-
The guy finally got the pronunciation of Crahan down!
-
If there is a heaven, I hope jesus liked joey's Crowd of thorns.
-
Now, when they said "Meaning", I thought they meant an actual meaning. When Iowa came out, I had friends telling me that their masks had actual meanings behind them. I honestly can't remember them all, but I was told that Corey's represented Sickness and Mick's represented something to do with dark clouds. Wish I could remember them all now.

Mick Thompson's mask was my favorite when I first heard Slipknot around the age of 7 and is still my favorite of all the masks the band has worn. Rip Paul and Joey
