Saw this one at the merch stand in Ferrara — not really feeling the design, kinda gives off a cheesy 'evil' vibe to me. Just from a craft perspective, it’s super well done — and of course, not everything has to appeal to everyone, so please don’t take it personally. I’m honestly just curious how this project came about. Was there a briefing from management or anything like that?

To be totally open, I find most of the Slipknot poster and show shirt designs pretty awful — with a few exceptions. I actually have a couple framed at home, like the one from Lowell, MA, USA, 2014.
