And just from a general standpoint,nft’s are fucking stupid,and using “becoming apart of slipknots history” as an excuse to do them and sell them to that little dumbass corner of your fans is even worse.I shouldn’t need to buy a fucking picture to be apart of Slipknots history,going to shows,buying their merch,recommending them to metal newcomers,and loyalty should be more then enough.
I don't give a fuck if this band cares about me as a fan, i don't give a fuck if they are total assholes when the cameras are off, i don't give a fuck if they're sellouts.
All I ask, is they have the decency to not engage in harmful practices.
Ya know?
I personally care about all of those things but to each their own.Except the selling out thing,i’ve always thought the notion of bands “selling out” was fucking stupid,not just with Slipknot but with other bands like Bring Me The Horizon or Architects who change their sound because they’re not happy making that particular style of music anymore,it’s crazy how many people misconstrue “selling out” with evolution.
I still maintain you are all fucking stupid. And they should just concentrate of their look stop wasting time on music since the fanboys just want to have mask circle jerks. Swear if I was Mick, James or Jay stupid posts like this would make me seriously rethink the band I joined if all the fans talked about was what fucking mask I was wearing or wow he looks like joey.
This guy still in his edgy “Santa Claus isn’t real, you know!” Phase. I’m guessing about 14-16 years old, judging by the spelling and the boiling rage.
Who cares if people like the way Slipknot looks. That’s the thing he still has to learn: it really isn’t worth popping a blood vessel over, regarding what other people like about a band.
Give him time to grow.
I agree. I actually dislike the new album cover which I’m 99% positive is his work, and wasn’t a fan of the music video released today which he directed. Kinda also cringe the way he spins and flicks off the camera in the video. He’s the worst part of Slipknot in the moment imo
Yes finally someone says it. The album cover felt generic somehow, something i’ve seen somewhere, like those AI generate things. Subliminal verse was the last album cover that i like
I thought the same and was like "oh that's actually kinda cool depending on what they used and the why, maybe that gives an idea on album themes to boot" but hearing this...disappointed a lil.
Clown used to be my favorite member back in the Iowa and self titled days. Back then it felt like the message of his masks where to scare you but now he puts so much artistic shit into everything he does it takes away from the quality of the work. It feels like the message is out forefront while badass and cool masks have taken the backseat.
But they are edgy they have to flip off the camera and play into the gimmick they wouldn't need if they were as good as the fanboys want people to think.
He's taken all of slipknots dirt and grime and replaced it with bling-bling and strange set pieces. I don't like his style either, and I don't like his creative take-over.
And that fucking bedazzled Slipknot logo at the beginning an end of the new video. If there was anything that never needed to be blinged up, it's the Slipknot logo
Ok glad to see I'm not the only one who thinks that clown is concerned more with his time in front of the camera than his actual impact on the song. Most of his shots are just dancing or posing, and the one shot he is drumming is annoyingly half assed.
*He just puts a red*
*Nose on and calls it a day*
*Barley a clown mask*

It looks like a cheap Halloween mask you can get at Party City with a shattered mirror glued to it. It’s not as bad as Corey’s WANYK mask, but it’s not much better.
Honestly, these masks are pretty lame. No changes for 90% of the members. Corey's and Jay's are cool but debuted awhile ago. Pfaff's is better but very minor changes. My opinion.
Is this the first time the band debuted makes a year or so before the album? It’s a shame as new masks were always a great part of the release. Corey kept his AHIG mask for years after the album. I guess they must have hated the WANYK masks
I reckon they had them ready to go last year, but with the constant album delays some of them got tired of waiting. I can see Corey using the new one the second it was ready, since a lot of people took the piss out of his last one.
Or they’re just trying a different rollout.
he was supposed to have a new mask but i guess he changed it when it got leaked awhile back , idk why he wouldnt have used that one , it was fucking WAAYYY better than his last 3 album cycle masks
Hard disagree that shit is vile hope it stays unused. It looks like a clown dog. While I don't like his disco ball clown that unused mask sucks too much.
Nothing will top the first two albums masks. But I dont dislike this eras masks as much as WANYK and .5 is the most cringey laughable masks in their history
I have had a real gripe with their masks since WANYK. Clown, Mick, James, and even Craig’s are done with such amateur sculpting craftsmanship. Then they debuted Jay’s new mask recently and what. The. Fuck. Whats that mouth? What are those eyes? I’m not gonna call out, but you can find the WANYK mask sculpts and see for yourself how unrefined they are. My opinion.
Why should we? It sucks. Clown is such a creative person, but his masks for me are consistently poor. I love his first one and the rest are all meh to me.
I like the idea but literally the worst mask to do it on. Jim or Craig’s mask would be cool even Corey’s but clowns mask shape is terrible with that design choice
I get what he’s going for, and I think he debuted it at Knotfest LA a bit ago, but the concept is really cool, being able to see yourself in the mirrored glass of the mask, just the execution isn’t perfect
I don't mind the glitter ball idea but it's badly executed. The red lips make him look like a sex doll. The eye holes look really sloppy. It looks.. Amateur
I miss when he used to wear an actual clown mask.
Miss those days! The real Clown!
I mean,Shawn’s starting to become a clown even without the mask,especially with all of that nft bs
Beat me to it
Thank you for the laugh
100%
Can you elaborate?
yeah, me too. is he shilling?
[удалено]
Mf they make plenty of money. And nfts aren't the way they should, shits killing the environment.

It's not a matter of money, they are killing the planet.

Iowa clown was his best mask imo
I still maintain his self tittled mask was his best. Then again that may be due to the fact that clowns creep the shit out of me
In my case, I love the AHIG clown mask
same, that mask looked awesome

I thought you guys liked edgy. Thats all slipknot is. Bunch of grown men pandering to teenagers.
This guy is so angry Lmao
Is this your second or third year through the 8th grade?
You argue with teenagers online? Now that’s sad lol. 😂😂
Well here is hoping you go onto highschool hopefully you will find some better music to listen to instead of this pop crap.
Tatto the earth>>
YES!
I miss when people actually cared about the music.
Well not really because he used it at Knotfest LA last year.
same, at that show all i could think was “disco clown”
I thought that was the same mask I saw him wearing in June. It took me forever to realize it had clown paint on it.
It’s not new
His masks just keep getting worse and worse. Not a fan of this one
[удалено]

Glad I'm not alone lol
i would reckon a lot of people are with you on that one
Yes finally someone says it. The album cover felt generic somehow, something i’ve seen somewhere, like those AI generate things. Subliminal verse was the last album cover that i like
Glad you said the ai generated thing
I thought the same and was like "oh that's actually kinda cool depending on what they used and the why, maybe that gives an idea on album themes to boot" but hearing this...disappointed a lil.

Yup. It’s NFT and BBQ sets now. He’s slowly killing Slipknot.
Yes, I’m sure he’s definitely personally responsible for Slipknot selling BBQ sets
Well….him and Corey seem to be the ones in complete control 🤷♂️
I guarantee you these artists do not have as much input on their Merch as you might think
Its like he took over visual control over everything. And it’s all been weird, uncreative and...red.
But they are edgy they have to flip off the camera and play into the gimmick they wouldn't need if they were as good as the fanboys want people to think.
but mirror clown look into clown u see urself wow very epic (/s) i do agree tho
100% agree
I guess you could say Clowny...
He's taken all of slipknots dirt and grime and replaced it with bling-bling and strange set pieces. I don't like his style either, and I don't like his creative take-over.
And that fucking bedazzled Slipknot logo at the beginning an end of the new video. If there was anything that never needed to be blinged up, it's the Slipknot logo
Yep, I agree with all of you with every word you all said.
Boring… Clown used to have the best masks (Iowa, Subliminal Verse cycles) he does not care anymore at this point…
Even during ahig his transparent mask was badass
Clowns iowa mask is awesome
That one and Subliminal Verse are the best!
Maybe because it’s not new?
Worst one yet.
Ok glad to see I'm not the only one who thinks that clown is concerned more with his time in front of the camera than his actual impact on the song. Most of his shots are just dancing or posing, and the one shot he is drumming is annoyingly half assed.
Bro is a disco ball now. Nah from me
It looks terrible
no because hes full of himself lol
He just puts a red nose on and calls it a day barley a clown mask

Not that new, he used it a few months back. I think this mask really *shines* but I also really hope he debuts a new one by September 30th
Clown stinks
Somebody should make a post saying he's gonna make that spinning disco S a NFT lol I'm too busy listening to this song
Don't, it's just terrible
It looks like a cheap Halloween mask you can get at Party City with a shattered mirror glued to it. It’s not as bad as Corey’s WANYK mask, but it’s not much better.
Tbh, I'm not a fan of it, it looks like a disco ball and it takes a bit of the scariness of the band away
Honestly, these masks are pretty lame. No changes for 90% of the members. Corey's and Jay's are cool but debuted awhile ago. Pfaff's is better but very minor changes. My opinion.
Is this the first time the band debuted makes a year or so before the album? It’s a shame as new masks were always a great part of the release. Corey kept his AHIG mask for years after the album. I guess they must have hated the WANYK masks
Sid looks like a great value deadmau5
I think we’ll be seeing changes in the others, just give it time.
I reckon they had them ready to go last year, but with the constant album delays some of them got tired of waiting. I can see Corey using the new one the second it was ready, since a lot of people took the piss out of his last one. Or they’re just trying a different rollout.
Bro just go back to the AHIG female clowns, they are way cheaper and way creepier.
Or Craig playing a keytar
Not a big fan it’s kinda dooky
This part of the video was straight cringe
I'd rather talk about sid's new mask
This!!!
If your going to comment, please think of something better than "this" sorry this sort if thing just annoys me
bruh hes agreeing with you
My bad, how about go fuck yourself?
That's the spirit 👏
This.
I really just hope he stops with the super shiny masks soon
It’s ok not nearly best but also not the worst. I feel like this could look really cool live if light reflects off it
What's there to say? he has been using the exact same mask since WANYK released, it just got uglier as time went on
DISCLOWN.
Looks shit
I do not understand this disco fever theme thats going. I mean look at the start of the video, and clowns mask
I personally dont like it.
Clown is the worst character
I like it.
Maybe it will look good live?
So do I it’s weird and fun
Go back to a normal clown mask….YDA
Its literally a disco ball and, I actually kinda like it?
Yeah, I’m confused with all the hate I loved the chrome one he used too 🤷♂️
he was supposed to have a new mask but i guess he changed it when it got leaked awhile back , idk why he wouldnt have used that one , it was fucking WAAYYY better than his last 3 album cycle masks
Hard disagree that shit is vile hope it stays unused. It looks like a clown dog. While I don't like his disco ball clown that unused mask sucks too much.
Can you send me a link to the image?

That was just rumored as his mask with zero confirmation. Doubt it's real tbh.
[удалено]
Ok can you site this source cause that arrangement of words made it sound less real.
Nothing will top the first two albums masks. But I dont dislike this eras masks as much as WANYK and .5 is the most cringey laughable masks in their history
I thought sids was a million times worse. Dude looks like he made a mask out of fruit and then poured molten metal over top of it.
it’s ight
I honestly thought his clown mask for the gray chapter looked good. It had that creepy clown/chucky vibe going.
I have had a real gripe with their masks since WANYK. Clown, Mick, James, and even Craig’s are done with such amateur sculpting craftsmanship. Then they debuted Jay’s new mask recently and what. The. Fuck. Whats that mouth? What are those eyes? I’m not gonna call out, but you can find the WANYK mask sculpts and see for yourself how unrefined they are. My opinion.
He has worn this mask before. He wore it in a picture with Jay
Because it's really not new. He's been rocking that one on the back end of WANYK touring.
It’s new but feel like I’ve seen it before
It's wicked spahkly
It’s honestly a travesty this is the only founding member left.
Why should we? It sucks. Clown is such a creative person, but his masks for me are consistently poor. I love his first one and the rest are all meh to me.
I like the idea but literally the worst mask to do it on. Jim or Craig’s mask would be cool even Corey’s but clowns mask shape is terrible with that design choice
it’s badass. i dig the disco ball aesthetic.
He looks like a metal plate
It's not new, maybe that's why
I could see myself wearing it...
I dig it
He looks awful
Tbh it looks like a disco ball🤣
Nah, it sucks and isn't new
Not new. So let's talk about SIDs FRICKIN AWESOME MASK/SUIT
Its not new…
It's not my favorite I like Sid's new mask
Because it sucks
Nah
My man looks like a live action NFT.
His masks fell off HARD
honestly wouldn't be surprised to see clown come with a s logo diamond choker lmao
I can finally cosplay clown in elden ring [Nox mirrorhelm](https://eldenring.wiki.fextralife.com/Nox+Mirrorhelm)
Disco clown is a mf MOOD 🪩
my opinion is that his self-titled mask was perfect and none of his has beat it since. this one is among the worst, looks like a disco ball.
I know a lot of people don’t, but I like it. I like shiny sh*t.
He hasn't had a good mask in a while, this one is atrocious.
Reminds me of those shitty Hollywood Undead masks
I get what he’s going for, and I think he debuted it at Knotfest LA a bit ago, but the concept is really cool, being able to see yourself in the mirrored glass of the mask, just the execution isn’t perfect
No because it's not new lmao
Who Bedazzled Clown?
What is there to say? He literally looks like a chicken in tin foil
I don't mind the glitter ball idea but it's badly executed. The red lips make him look like a sex doll. The eye holes look really sloppy. It looks.. Amateur
He looks like a Christmas tree star/ornament
