Slipknot To Launch New Line Of Official Merch

posted Apr 1, 2005 at 6:10 PM by darkstar.  (16 Comments)

For all the maggots out there who want more than just Slipknot shoes and costumes and masks, Slipknot has announced that they will be launching a whole new line of official Slipknot merch:

Ant farms are out, maggot farms are more exciting. Rather than watching little 6-legged insects crawl around on sand, you will be able to see maggots squirm on rotting meat.

Other merch, themed to your favourite masked member, includes sleepwear, bed sheets & pillow cases, curtains, toilet seats, bath towels, diapers, lamp shades, toasters, blenders, coffee mugs, mouse pads, umbrellas and more.

And there's nothing better than waking up to a Slipknot alarm clock, which blasts "People=Shit" at high decibels. You'll never wake up late again.

New merch will be availabe on Slipknot's official online store this fall.

by the way, they're not money hungry, any and all merch that is created it usually done by their record label or some one else who isn't in the band and is just out to get money. it's possible that they clear the rights themselves for merch and if that's how it is then yeah they're in it a little bit more for the money, but they're still great musicians and i love their new cd

I figured if there are Buzz Lightyear diapers for Disney fans, why not Corey Taylor diapers for Slipknot fans?
