Who are Slipknot’s fans?
We head down to Slipknot’s Here Comes The Pain tour in Manchester to meet the Maggots that had their lives changed forever by nine masked men from the cornfields…
See one of Slipknot’s mask designers, Jim Ojala, conjuring up some demon-inspired get-ups for Shin Megami Tensei V: Vengeance…
As well as taking over Download Festival next month with eight playing stations, SEGA’s new Shin Megami Tensei V: Vengeance game has teamed up with Slipknot.
Ahead of its release next month, the upcoming RPG has unveiled a promotional mask collaboration with The Nine, with one of the band’s mask artists Jim Ojala designing three different demon masks based on the game.
In the video below, you can see Jim and his Ojala Productions team
reveal the process and then go on to create masks for Gurulu, Daemon and
Loup-Garou, featuring ‘defining visuals and themes that Slipknot and Shin
Megami Tensei V: Vengeance share’ according to a press release.
Shin Megami Tensei V: Vengeance is due out on Friday, June 14 via PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Nintendo Switch, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, Windows and Steam.
