By the time you've read this, Buckethead would have released 7 more records

[geckojesus]

I'm sure we all knew it was slipknot from the beginning

[rubenick]

Of course Slipknot is #1 -_- ...
So what does Corey Taylor think of this list?

[reservedhogs]

Finally a list that shows some Buckethead shredding instead of just slow melodies.

[metallicafan]

Why i was not surprised to see slipknot on number 1?

[LoudwireMusic]

FYI: For this list, face paint doesn't count!

[urfacesoccer]

How is Buckethead only #9? 264 albums and counting as well as consistently one of the best and fastest guitarists of all timr

[Yksinainensusi]

Ghost is my ultimate masked metal band. Papa Emeritus is dope and funny as hell.

[danielalvarado]

alright kids number 10 is one the big reasons you dont do drugs

[tommybawse]

Lordi, Slipknot, and GWAR are my favs!! Especially Lordi, such an under-appreciated band for the badass music they make

[MireWolf]

I knew Slipknot would be number 1 so I wasn't too enthused, but I couldn't help but throw up the horns for Mushroomhead, Ghost, and Gwar!

[allenz]

Thought Ghost should've been #1 mainly cause of personal opinion and also I love the fact that not only are they masked, but they are completely anonymous. Just my 2 cents. Slipknot fuckin rocks though

[Qurisx]

FUCK YES BUCKETHEAD!!!! BUCKETHEAD IS IMMORTAL!!!

[Tomas]

Mushroomhead only at #7? It deserved #5 or #4 at least.

[kirbywalker]

Number 1 was obvious great list happy to see knot and ghost in the top 3

[LadySeraphineCC]

It makes me so happy to see Gwar, Ghost, and Slipknot on this list 🤘

[unluckyno]

The first time I saw Mushroomhead I was right in front of the water drums and I had no idea what to expect. I was drenched by the end of the show 🤟🏼

[BitestheStuff]

In the end, I don't think anybody has committed to the concept of a costumed band like GWAR has. Bigger bands won't even try to put in the level of effort they do into organizing the type of shows they have.

[jesusguerrero]

Mushroomhead, Slipknot and Ghost are amazing with Slipknot being my favorite \m/

[dswnetwork]

If this was watchmojo, Lordi wouldn't have been here and Ghost would have been like 9th at best. That's why Loudwire is superior, though I think Buckethead should probably have been higher... but yeah decent list
