Slipknot Tease Their New Masks (Again), Launch New Website, Suggest They’re Doing Something on Thursday

We already knew that this was gonna be a big week for Slipknot. The band is booked to perform on Jimmy Kimmel Live this coming Friday, May 17, which, we can safely assume, means we’re gonna see their masks by that time! (Also, they may debut some new music? But whatever NEW MASKS!!!!)

But now it looks like the band might be treating all the lil’ Maggots to something a day earlier: The PRP reports that the group have launched a revamped version of their website, Slipknot1.com, which shows the below video on a loop beneath the number 0516… which people are understandably interpreting to mean 05/16, as in this Thursday, May 16.

As for the video itself, it’s mostly archival footage, but there are some brief snippets of super-close-up shots of what appear to be the band members’ new masks.

Presumably, we’ll find out Thursday. ‘Til then, feel free to pore over this video for clues…
