Slipknot, the American death metal stars known for their aggressive outfits and performances, are also recognized for their masks and crazy contact lenses.
HIM, the Finnish superstars with the charismatic front man Ville Wallo, are popular in the goth music scene, where freaky contacts are favored.
Bullet for my Valentine, the hugely successful British metalcore band are also featured on a pair of contact lenses.
