Slipknot's New Look
Joey Jordison's New Look – In perhaps the most controversial new look, Jordison has adopted a Jesus-like crown of thorns.
Joey Jodison Before – His old look is tame in comparison
Sid Wilson's New Look - Resembling a futuristic robot type skeleton, his new guise is a far cry from his old appearance.
Sid Wilson Before – One of his previous guises was as a skeleton – one which has had a few variants.
James Root's New Look – With darkened eyes and pale white face he cuts a striking image
James Root Before – One of his old looks was a Texas Chainsaw Massacre-esque mask
Sean 'Clown' Crahan's New Look - Sean Crahan retains his clown look, but now it has a more sinister, dark edge.
Sean 'Clown' Crahan' Before – His old look was just as twisted and warped.
Corey Taylor's New Look – A drastic reformation, vocalist Taylor has lost his flowing hair and gnarled masked in favour of this. Emotionless, it's equally as effective.
Corey Taylor Before – The long-haired vocalist as we're used to.
Mick Thomson's New Look - Still retaining his striking metallic mask, Thomson looks scary as ever.
Mick Thomson Before – Six years ago the mask was less angular and had a lighter, less imposing tone.
Paul Gray's New Look – He looks almost animal-like or something out Lord of the Rings in this guise.
Paul Grey Before – Then it was more of a Hannibal Lecter style macabre mask.
Chris Fehn's New Look – Fehn retains his pointy nose and trademark gimp mask for his slightly tweaked look
Chris Fehn Before – A slightly different red-coloured guise
Craig '133' Jones' New Look – Not much has changed for 133, apart from that his spikes now seem to be longer
Craig '133' Jones Before
