This past weekend, Slipknot frontman Corey Taylor showcased a new version of his signature 25th-anniversary mask at Knotfest Brazil – complete with striking red lights in the eye sockets.
Corey's wife, Alicia Taylor, shared a photo of the new look on X/Twitter, humorously captioning it: "Five nights at Corey’s, heyooo."

The new mask stands out with its clear, round plastic lenses and embedded red lights in the eye openings, creating a chilling and impactful effect on stage.
Alicia also revealed some intriguing details about the mask: "He can barely see through it. The poor thing was walking around like a zombie on and off stage." She explained further that the mask works like a flexible pair of plastic glasses, with the lights placed inside the eye sockets.
The new design is impressive not only up close but also on stage, where the red lights create an eerie atmosphere, elevating Taylor's performance even more.
