Earlier this morning, we post the new Slipknot music video, "The Devil In I." It was the first time Slipknot's new drummer and bassist were featured in a music video with them. It was also the first time we have seen the new Slipknot masks that will carry on through this current album cycle. One immediate takeaway from me: the masks are really cool. So I thought it would be fun to take some screenshots and examine all the masks. I literally sat there trying to grab the clearest shots of these masks frame by frame, so let's explore…

So far, so cool. More masks on the next page…
