it'd be cool to see a series ranking each of the members masks from worst to best

Corey’s new V2 we are not your kind mask is honestly the one I love the most, this is pure CT

I gotta disagree the All Hope is Gone is definitely my favorite. Glad Corey's new mask is somewhat reminiscent of it.

I wanna see you and Corey do a video like this together!🔥

imo I always felt like the slipknot “brand” or feel was curated by Clown and Joey. So when you say it doesn’t feel “Slipknot” I’d say his new mask feels like “Corey” which is why it ranks up high for me.

You should do this with all the original members! And yes unarguably is a word

Left behind Takes the no.1 spot for me. My first introduction to Slipknot aged 8. Blew me away.

Personally, Corey's current WANYK mask is one of my favorites.. Looks way cooler when you actually see it live

Didn't think the V2 mask looked like a GWAR mask until you mentioned it, now I can't unsee this! 😂

I'm glad someone thinks of the 1st wanyk mask as highly as I do. honestly and to no surprise, I didn't like the balloon cheeks but the overall concept and look of the fixed version is just cool as hell, especially with some sic edits on a few photos

Corey's Vol 3 mask is my favourite, cause that was the era that introduced me to Slipknot (Before I Forget is a song on the Motorstorm soundtrack), so that mask has the most sentimental value for me. Plus I love the aesthetic of the mask. It's ugly and gross, but in the absolute best way, in my opinion. :)

Coreys new mask has easily got to be my new favorite Slipknot mask everything about it fits perfectly

I would really love to see a full series of this, really liking it so far

Sup man? Great list! Here's mine. 🤘🏻 1. Iowa 2. ST: Ghost Glow 3. ST: Dummy 4. AHIG 5. Vol:3 6. WANYK V:2 7. TGC V:2 8. TGC V:1 9. WANYK V:1

The Left Behind and Disasterpieces one are my all-time favorites. I discovered them through the Disasterpieces DVD, back in 2002, and ever since that evil look of that mask has stuck with me.

Gotta say I love the All Hope Is Gone Corey mask. I understand that it was used for six years and people got tired of seeing it, but I was 8 in 2008 and I remember seeing the All Hope Is Gone CD in stores around that time, looking at the album cover and seeing them all standing in the weeds. then seeing Corey in the middle and me just being like “wtf am I looking at” and then it all made sense once I heard it

My ranking at 10- the memorial show dummy it looks so goofy 9- The Gray Chapter v1 mask I just never really liked it, the v2 was definitely way more cooler to me so this just gets pushed down 8- The Gray Chapter v2, honestly from here I just like them all, I really like this one looks really sic to me, I think the shape of the mask made some of the pics out there of this mask look really cool 7- All Hope Is Gone mask, I completely see y people hate it, me personally I liked it especially after he grew his hair out a bit more, it added to the mask, is it simple, yes, but to me it kinda worked for the mask in a weird way 6- We Are Not Your Kind v2 I absolutely love it and from here on out I really love the masks and idea of them, the mask looked really awesome to me and with weathering I think it will look even more sic, it looks like a rag doll came to life or a killer wearing a doll like mask 5- Iowa, okay this might be a bit of an unpopular opinion/ranking, I love the mask but I just liked the other masks a bit more, just a bit more lol 4- We Are Not Your Kind v1, after the stitches, all the face paints looked so cool, it constantly changing was awesome to see, I was looking forward to see what new paint job he did after each concert 3- Vol 3, I really liked the mask it look like a burn victim that was also stitched up back together, and the hair also helps and adds to the mask 2- the dummy, I absolutely love the mask, it looks awesome in the Wait and Bleed music video 1- Ghost Glow, it is my absolute favorite Corey mask, it looks so sic to me and the dreads looked cool on the mask, and after seeing what a normal ghost glow mask looked like I thought it was so cool how much he changed it for himself

For some reason I love the new V2 WANYK mask I can't wait to see some good quality footage of that mask.

Hands down favorite is the Iowa Era mask. It's when they were at their best in my opinion. Great vid as always

Best way to start off the day, watching a video from the house of masks 🤘🏼 I think my all time favorite mask is the vol 3

Ranking joeys masks would be a nightmare

Excited for this one!

And next, ranking EVERY SINGLE Corey mask

Great vid Aj. Its the same for me in that exact order, Self titled will always be my number one (:

Definitely want to see other members, great video!

As a younger fan, I really have a lot of my good ol slipknot memories connected to Corey’s all hope is gone mask. Even though we saw a shit ton of it, it has a special place in my heart. Seeing Corey go back to that AHIGish mask with his new one along with the cool outfit he wears that reminds me of that badass converse wearing download 2009 Corey makes me so happy but I can understand why people wouldn’t like it as much as other masks like Iowa or vol 3 or self tilted.

Let's start a petition to make Sid bring back his mechanical transformers mask

Thank u for the video! Loved it and great work!

Oh hellll yeah. Been stoked for dis!

thank u so much aj good for this video man house of masks rock all day every day

I’d love to see you do more rankings. You know wtf you’re talking about, and I love hearing it.

Self-title dummy mask will always be my favorite Corey mask, the dummy mask is what caught my attention and getting into Slipknot especially watching the Wait and Bleed and Spit It Out music video with the dummy mask.

I've always been more fond of the simpler Slipknot masks, I love WANYK V2 and AHIG so much. I really liked the creativity of WANYK V1 though

I was with ya especially at the top 3. Minor differences in the rest. I could completely see your points through out

my favorite is definitely #7 but i’m also biased because i just recently got into them and saw them live for the first time with this mask. plus this one gives me chills

Scheduled to get a tattoo of the AHIG mask this week, very excited

Nothing better than seeing a new upload from the goat him self:)

Honestly the we are not your kind V2 is absolutely amazing looking. Its very corey in my opinion, definitely one of my favorites coming from a casual slipknot enjoyer

I understand why you have wanyk at 3. My favorite thing about it was his changing face paint too. Id have that at number 2 in my list, but the stitch one. One thing about wanyk that has nothing to do with Cory, is sids whole get up. His mask is cool, but I can't wait until he decides to change his style. I would like to see his wanyk mask with a boiler suit. Anything but that coat and hood.

I definately agree on many points but my favorite will always and forever be corey's vol. 3 mask. It represents so well the change in his vocal style from the guttural low screams of Iowa to the high pitched weird melodic screeches he does on vol.3! It really sounds like his face has been ripped open and his voice transformed to a completely new universe of sound. I read somewhere it might have had to do with injuries from his days of drinking too much and not being aware of actually damaging his voice when screaming so he had to find a new way to perform the vocals, but the change in his voice from Iowa to Vol. 3 is imminent. Also he never went back to that style of singing really ever after that. Vol. 3 is such a unique period musically for the band, I could write a novel here about vol. 3 cause that was the first Slipknot record I heard when I was 8 years old... Man it's been a while on this... Well hope you have the time to read this, always fun to chat with fellow fans of (any) band that you're into this much... Have a good one and thanks for the quality content, really appreciate it! Haven't gone so deep into the masks myself as I have to the music, I'm a musician u see. Keep it real!

What about a top of the best jumpsuits / clothes they used for each album era?

My list is this but backwards… dude what???!!!! Except the Iowa mask, I love that one

Definitely a very fair ranking. Though, if it was me, I would put Coreys current mask a bit higher in the list. For me, it does have that Slipknot feel to it despite definitely having a horror movie aesthetic.

I swear I read something about Coreys' new mask being his mask for the next album? iirc, He said that he wants the rest of the band to hurry up with their new masks as well

I think the best way to improve the wanyk V2 would be having the eyelets be LED's, that change throughout the show/cycle

Imo all hope is gone is one of my favorite it's so simple but yet still scary and badass at the same time

Iowa number 1 for me. It just feels like the mask completely fits Corey and the Iowa music; it’s just such a perfect match. When Corey had that mask on it’s almost like it transformed him into a different person

Definitely should do a series with all the members. New and original members

Agreed Isaac Gibirdi , it would be cool to see a ranking of all members masks . Effing great idea man 🤘

Love to see one with Joey, clown, and maybe the new members 👍🏻

Love this bro!

I have to agree with you on the ghost glow being the most slipknot and grotesque. It's It's look that got me into them and what made me the fan I am today. It's also the reason I got the ghost glow mask at inkcarceration a few weeks ago. I wore that thing with pride and now have it proudly displayed on my shelf. A day I will definitely not forget! I got to meet you (AJ Good) got a kick ass mask,and got to see slipknot again

Rewatching this and hope this could be a series too.. i wanna see your opinion from worst to greatest to other Slipknot members masks

I personally wouldn't have these masks in that order but I fully understand why you put them there, also keep up with the good content 👍

Does anyone know if and where I can find a non latex mask preferably clowns or Corey Iowa or self titled for a fairly cheap price

We are not your kind v2 is seriously underrated

Love the ranking of this list. Let's get this video to 1 million views!!🤟🏻

My ordering would be playing this video in reverse 😆

It’s kinda hard for me to pick a favorite just because I pretty much love all of Corey’s masks except for the Sonisphere Dummy and both versions of the .5 Mask. Those masks make me wanna die every time I see them. All the others are cool though. I completely get your ranking AJ

The all hope is gone mask is definitely my favourite,when I think of slipknot I think of that mask🤘🤘🤘 EDIT: now my favorite is the volume 3 mask

My favorite is the newest one with the eyelits but I also really like the ghost-glow and the one with the crazy red and purple hair

9. Promo WANYK 8. .5 v1 7. .5 v2 6. vol. 3 5. AHIG 4. WANYK v2 3. Iowa 2. GG 1. S/T Dummy And to get technical, The mask/paint combo for the BBC performance and the Red Paint performance as you showed are by far my favorites of all.

I’m a huge fan of the we are not your kind V1 mask, I loved the different face paints and stuff. If I had to choose my least favorite it would be the gray chapter mask.

I'm glad you like the #3, I dig it too. Idk why ppl hate it.

Pls make this a series!

you should get a blank wanyk v2 and change it, you brought up all the changes and now i need to see it

Yes please do more in the future.

Ngl i was waiting for you to uplad this lmao :))) ur a fucking badass btw

I also love the later we are not your kind clear mask💯

Although I am not a fan of the WANYK mask, this video made me understand why people do enjoy it, and I think that it definitely has a charm to it

Iowa Dummy Ghost Glow WANYK V2 AHIG WANYK V1/Vol3 Grey Chapter V2 Grey Chapter V1 honestly started listening to slipknot a bit before releasing wanyk but I love the darkness the iowa mask brought and energy it had during that era

This concept would definitely be a bad ass short series.

Great video man! My list is pretty different but cannot fault the arguments you presented. For me, it would go (best to worst): Self-titled (The ghost glow just pips the dummy for me) Iowa WANYK V2 .5 V1 WANYK V1 (under the stipulation that we are ignoring the premiere-version with the flappy cheeks) Vol 3 .5 V2 Sonisphere 2011 callback dummy

I like the newest mask the most, it looks the cleanest and I think it fits him well

What was the purpose of the ahig Corey mask?

I absolutely love Corey’s Gray Chapter mask, it’s one of my favourite Slipknot masks, it’s not the greatest, but I just love the concept of having two masks in one, and the inner mask is a neat idea. I even have a replica of Corey’s gray chapter mask, sadly it doesn’t have the inner mask feature but I’m glad that I still own it one way or another because personally, I love the mask.

My top three WANYK V2 is definitely my fave. Then subliminal verses. Then all hope is gone. Least favorite is Paul Gray memorial dummy Amazing vid as always AJ 🔥 🤘🏻 (Btw would love to see a vid for every member)

What’s the meaning behind the All Hope Is Gone mask?

Please do one of these for each member!

1. All Hope Is Gone: This mask for me was very special since it was the first thing I ever saw when I was introduced to Slipknot. The overall aesthetic of the mask is something that I'm in love with. The simplicity of it gave me a feeling of emptiness, that at the time, I could really relate to. 2. WANYK V2: This mask is almost #1 for me especially since it was debuted in my home state of Oklahoma! I love everything about this mask from the weird eyes, to the crease in the head to make it look like a skull! It's just an overall badass mask and it's going to be the first mask I see in person when I get to go see Slipknot live for the first time this October!!! 3. Ghost Glow: This mask took what the Dummy was and improved it by a thousand percent! The dreads were cool, the mask was intimidating, and the fact that that you could barely see the eyes really sell it. One thing that I love in these masks is when you can remove the human element, and not seeing then eyes really helps you to see Corey as some kind of damaged beast when he's on stage. 4. The Dummy: It's a classic! You can't hate this mask! The overall design was creative and the execution was nearly perfect. If it weren't for the Ghost Glow, this design would be higher. 5. Iowa: I love the Iowa mask but I just feel like in comparison to the other dreaded masks, it definitely falls short. I felt like the mouth and eyeholes were just far too big and it kinda gave Corey this weird comical look whereas I feel like it should have been more intimidating. Not scary, intimidating. 6. WANYK V1: I love this mask to death and although the debut sucked, it really rocks once you see the improvements! 7. Gray Chapter V2: A definite improvement to the previous mask but pretty lackluster. 8. Gray Chapter V1: I certainly don't dislike this mask but I don't like it. Before Corey removes the face cover I think it's kinda cool but once he reveals the strange blue underbelly, I can't help but think it looks stupid. 9. Vol. 3: I was never a huge fan of this mask. I always thought it was just boring and never fun to look at. Not to mention at the time, Corey's scream was in my opinion one of the worst states it has ever been. 10: The Dummy Remake: It fucking sucks.

Excited for this one makes me look forward to the mick one 😭😭😭😭😭

You should to the tier list website in a live commentary format

My personal favorite is his mask from Vol.3. I am a big horror movie fan, and the mask reminds me of leatherface, who is probably my favorite horror movie characters of all time. Great video as always!

I am a fan of his new mask but I can help but agree with you on adding slight changes

Me: "Ok, all Im hoping for is that AHIG Corey ranks higher than Grey Chapter v 1 and WANYK v1. Id be happy with that." AJ: *Ranks AHIG Corey second worst* Me: "FUCK" But yeah, great video. I expected to disagree with it and yeah, I did. But lets be real, there is not fun in life if everyone has the same opinion.

Vol3 and Iowa are my favorite. The reason vol3 for me is Duality. The song that got me hooked.

Mine is definitely the regular AHIG mask. I think this is because the very first time I looked up Slipknot out of curiosity, this is the mask Corey was wearing. I really, really do like the piece, as well. My new 2nd favorite, is the one that was my 2nd LEAST favorite before I watched this video. That mask being the WANYK mask. I didn't realize how absolutely awesome it is, allowing Corey to change his face paint underneath. I didn't realize that was what was going on with this particular mask, so again....thank you A.J. for educating me on this stuff. After that, sadly to me, all of the dreads masks come in last for me. I just don't get the feel of that look for one of the greatest, heaviest, and most intense bands of all-time. Those are the only ones I can rank, as they are my top 2 favorites in order, and the group that is my least favorites. The rest of them are interchangeable in the middle of my list. Thanks for such an awesome channel, my friend. As I have said before, I am not a mask guy at all, but because of the guy himself, and true inspiration from your channel, I am going start collecting all of the V-Man stuff I can get my hands on. I am currently at zero items, so hopefully I can grow that collection along with the other things I collect. I can't bring myself to say I hate you, so I will just say you are awesome, and thanks for the inspiration.

I totally agree about the patches of black greasy hair! I think it could even be taken further since theres no eyebrows but because it's so symmetrical you can see where the eyebrows would be. I think he could mess around with different eyebrow expressions with somehow putting interchangeable eyebrow on it, change it every show ya know

First time seeing the mask last night in houston and man did it give me the fukn chills but dam do i love it

As a 10 year old that All Hope is Gone mask became iconic, straight nightmare fuel looking at it

I’ve never felt judged I’ve never felt like I don’t fit and I feel like I get a natural high with the orchestras slipknot puts on, and I used to be an IV heroin addict for seven years. but I’ve been clean ever since I got slipknot and ur videos and I am going to be a singer, I can scream just like corey and I love their style. I’m from NJ, just outside Philly and I’m trying to get a band started now!

Gotta appreciate the specification he puts on the masks in each era; V1s and 2

not gonna lie, I love his new V2 we are not your kind mask, its got a scp vibe to it.

If you could do a drawling/sketch of the vision you described for Corey's new mask, that would be awesome.

Thanks again AJ.

I like the changes you would make to the WANYK V2 mask. I agree that it would look more like a slipknot mask with those changes

It would be cool if you do a rank for every Slipknot member mask

Also would be cool if you got a version of WANYK v2 and customized it to what you think it should look like

I see them in 5 days. Oct 8th! My girlfriend and I are hoping he's wearing the newest mask. The WANYK V2 is my favorite so far.

I personally think that Corey's new mask looks badass under the right lighting
