Seems like an all-encompassing collection. Beyond just the best-of release, the band is planning to release a mobile app where fans can build their own Slipknot masks and interact with each other. From the official press release:
Furthering the immersion in the band’s culture, this summer will see the release of the band’s first ever mobile application, Wear the Mask. Part mask builder, part social connector for fans, and 100% Slipknot in its look and execution, the app brings the Slipknot mindset into previously uncharted territory – the mobile devices of fans worldwide. Wear the Mask will be released simultaneously with Antennas to Hell.
