…alright, that's pretty cool.

Slipknot recently announced their new record The End, So Far alongside the revelation of new masks for the majority of the band. DJ Sid Wilson went a very mechanical route with his, and took the whole "machine" thing one step further by making a robot out of his previous mask. Watch as Wilson's newly-mounted mask sings along to Slipknot songs live in the below video. It's equally very cool and very creepy.

As for the album title The End, So Far, it doesn't quite mean what you think it does. During a show at the Hills Of Rock festival in Plovdiv, Bulgaria on July 21, Slipknot vocalist Corey Taylor told the crowd that the album title signifies a transition and not an actual end.

"I'll tell you what, some of you might have heard the news that Slipknot has a new album coming out very, very soon. The name of that album is called The End, So Far. And for those doomsday motherfuckers who think that Slipknot are gonna break up, that is not the case. This simply represents the end of one moment and the beginning of the rest of our fucking lives. Do you understand what I'm fucking saying to you out there?"

Pre-orders for The End, So Far are available here and you can check out the latest single "The Dying Song (Time To Sing)" below. You can also catch Slipknot on tour at one of the many dates below.

Not the best look.

"Paul's contribution to Iron Maiden was immense and helped set us on the path we have been travelling as a band for almost five...

"I'll probably talk in more detail about it later but right now I can only comfortably do a little at a time."

This is awful.
