Why does the slipknot band always were maskes?
Slipknot wears a mask for a few reasons the main reason is lead guitarist Mic Thomson decided to bring a mask from home during a Pyg System (which was the bands original name). Another reason is some members of the band use it for a ritual, like how lead vocalist Corey Taylor never washes his mask for good luck. Also it makes them a different look different from any other bands and shows their attitudes through their masks.
Actually the reason Slipknot started wearing masks was because Shawn was wearing a Clown one during the early day rehearsals and it kinda freaked the others out coz they couldn't see his face or expressions. they wear masks because it shows their moods that is why most of the band members dont keep the same mask stay sic maggots

M. Shawn Crahan Discusses "Snuff" From Behind The Camera
By Josh Reline
As Slipknot's 4th single from their #1 album All Hope is Gone sonically demonstrates a departure from the Iowa contingent's staple heaviosity, showcasing a more emotional side with a profound message, it couldn't be a better moment for M. Shawn Crahan - the percussionist better known as Clown, but the director better known by his given name - to take his filmography to the next level as well. Turning Corey Taylor's conflicted verse "Snuff" into a heart rendering and head-scratching short film, Crahan describes the work as "a love story… It's not transvestite stuff or Hollywood hookers, this is just a completely detached love story." Read on to find out more about Crahan's cinematic vision, personal attachment to the song, and what went into the making of the film.
How did you come up with the concept for this short film?
I think everybody was feeling the pressure of this video because of the caliber of the song and what the song could do and what it makes people feel -- I think everybody was worried. And I knew that my treatment was going to be a hard sell. If they don't really see it and taste it and deem it something that can be worthwhile, you're not going to get a chance to do it. So it was very important that I write something that was not going to justify the word 'snuff' in what the literal word [means], because I don't support that, and I'm not going to make something that would support that. I had to go [deep], and a lot of it just came around this story that Corey has written and these lyrics about, more or less, this person who's so gone and will not return, that she's basically dead, but he becomes her and that became more or less the definition of 'snuff.' So it was important that I tried to give Corey as much integrity behind what he was doing, because I was in his house, he played it as a demo, and it affected me then, and I've been writing it ever since. I wanted to do something that was a love story that could be that moment that all of us get to where we don't realize that we could get to that place, but then time slows down and we might have a moment of just rage or depression or fits of anxiety, and life changes, and we just never knew we could actually step into those boundaries -- that's more or less what this is about. It's not transvestite stuff or Hollywood hookers, this is just a completely detached love story.
What is Joey Jordison of slipknot's fan mail address?
There are 8 people in the band Slipknot. There is not one address for you to mail things. There is Corey Taylor, Shawn 'Clown' Crahan, Joey Jordison, Chris Fehn, Craig Jones, Jim Root, Sid Wilson, and Mick Thompson. There is no way of knowing where any of them live, unless you are one of their friends. Which is highly impossible. But, there is no way to find out what their address is. Sorry.
Yes, Slipknot won the Grammy Award for Best Metal Performance for "Before I Forget" in 2006.
Does chris fehn from slipknot have kids?
Chris Fehn is NOT dead. Slipknot member Paul Gray (#2, The Pig) passed away very recently. Fehn was at the press conference mourning the death of late member Gray.
How many songs has Corey Taylor made?
two. Slipknot and Stone sour! and he also did guest vocals on Apocalyptica's "I'm not jesus" also, every year on December 31st he sings for band called The Dumfux.
No, they are not Gothic at all. The whole "Nu Metal'' scene is very popular among the pathetic Mall Goths (who don't know what real Gothic couture really is) just because it's dark people believe it's "Goth." Gothic Music is Bauhaus, Siouxsie & the Banshees, Virgin Prunes, and The Cure. Slipknot is Nu Metal and has NOTHING to deal with Goth. They can be labeled a hardcore metal rockband.

Is the band Slipknot Christian?
Josh was a former member of slipknot he was the guitarist before mick was brought in but he became the sampler aka 133 its not josh its Craig Jones he only left during the recording of mate feed kill repeat due to his christian beliefs
the above paragraph is wrong.
josh left slipknot and mick DID NOT REPLACE HIM it was Jim root/James
Craig Jones is still in the band Craig has nothing to do with it. reason why josh left was because he thought slipknot would be a band with satanic beliefs, he himself was christian but clown said that religion isn't anyones business but thereselves. no band should be judged by religion.
donnie steele, who was in the band before josh brainard, was the one who left because of his christian beliefs.

No, but band lineup changed significantly, and they were 6 years between albums (2008-2014) and nearly as long between singles until releasing "The Negative One" and its album titled "5: The Gray Chapter" (October 2014). Joey Jordison left the group and No.2 (Paul Gray) died.
The band had several concerts in 2015 and both a European and North American tour in 2016.
--
No.2's name was Paul Gray. He died of substance overdose on May 24, 2010. He was their bass player. Slipknot were on short hiatus as the members grieved in their own ways. M Shawn Crahan said in an interview with BLUNT magazine "Slipknot will be back"
no she doesnt wear a mask just like superman she just makes herself look a little different
How much does mick Thomson from slipknot weigh?
Jim is 6'2' (mick is TALLER than Jim, he's 6'6'.)
Wrong way around Mick THOMSON (no p) is 6ft 2 Jim is 6ft6
Mick Thomson is 6`2` and Jim is 6`6` i know this because i am the #1 maggot!
Nah man your mixed up...mick Thompson is taller than Jim...way taller
Micks 7'4!! Jim is 6'6. i know because mick himself said it in an interview.
Yeah sorry but how the shizzle did you figure out Jim is taller than mick
many would say Corey Taylor because he does lead vocals. i think that vocalists get far too much credit. the original idea for slipknot came from Shawn "Clown" Crahan, #6. therefore, he is the leader
