The Meaning Of Every Slipknot Mask Explained

While Slipknot may not be the first band to hide their faces on stage, they've integrated their masks into their personality and performances like few other bands. Their creepy appearance is meant to reflect the intensity of their music, while at the same time allowing their fans to pay attention to their music, rather than their celebrity.

For over 20 years, Slipknot has been performing in a variety of disguises, each with a different purpose and story for the people who wear them. Here's the meaning of every Slipknot mask explained.
