Each Slipknot member has a different mask, all of which change with each album – some more significantly than others. We have a comprehensive list of every Slipknot mask detailing the evolution from the simple, dirty masks of the debut album to the sleeker, more ergonomic masks from the .5: The Gray Chapter era.

Shawn Crahan has always remained a clown, although sometimes more grotesque as seen with his Iowa mask. Sid has retained a gas mask look, diverting away for the Vol. 3: The Subliminal Verses album with a skeletal look. Chris has always kept his long nose and Craig has maintained his lengthy spikes. Mick’s mask has always resembled a metallic hockey mask and Jim’s has continued to have an air of a joker about it. Joey’s mask was a Kabuki style and Paul’s was initially a pig but morphed into a Hannibal Lecter-esque get-up. Corey’s mask has changed over time, from a dreadlocked leatherface on Slipknot to a haunting old man figure (with detachable jaw) for the .5: The Gray Chapter.

What is the best Slipknot album?

The first three Slipknot albums are seen as the strongest (Slipknot, Iowa and Vol. 3: The Subliminal Verses) and see the Nine at their creative peak, but Iowa takes the top spot for Slipknot’s best album.

In 2014, listeners of TeamRock Radio listeners voted Iowa as their number one Slipknot album, and it is the band’s only album to reach #1 in the UK album charts – although All Hope Is Gone and .5: The Gray Chapter both topped the US album charts.
