Still don't see what this has to do with dubstep in any sense 'cause it sure as hell doesn't sound like it in any way shape of form.

(That said, going over some old tracks by Mala and the like, I'm kind of shocked at how plain and normal that all sounds to me now. I mean, just comparing that to back in 2006/2007, when I may not have liked it, but when it definitely sounded very fresh and different. Granted, that was largely musical ignorance on my part, but nevertheless, I wonder if - and instinctively doubt - that any of that sense of differentness comes across to midwestern Skrillex ravers).

It's the best thing Korn have ever done. Take that any way you want.

It’s a rare expression of politics by Davis, who told MTV in 2006 that he wrote the song “Politics” because “It’s just about how I don’t like to talk about politics…Korn has never been a real political band.”

'Get Up' is about the recession. I wish everyone would shut the fuck up and have some fun. Every day I've got to hear about unemployment and people starving.

one month passes...

Anyone know the sales figures for this album? If it had sold several million then no doubt fred durst and others would have jumped on the bandwagon. Are we safe?

i don't think fred durst's next move is anything you need to be worrying about in 2012

... unless you're a hot young starlet who inadvertently left your drink unattended next to him in a sleazy Hollywood bar.

BrianB, Wednesday, 18 April 2012 04:29 (twelve years ago) link

sold significantly less than every other korn album

some dude, Wednesday, 18 April 2012 04:44 (twelve years ago) link

it's insane that this is korn's 10th album by the way -- there's no way any other major label rock band has cranked out that many studio albums since 1994

some dude, Wednesday, 18 April 2012 04:48 (twelve years ago) link

Seriously!

This is their best album since their debut, it's a shame they couldn't make it pop off

and as i expected, i love it.

totally hits the spot for me.

I was wondering the other day - was there ever a sociological or political impetus behind the whole boneheaded-jock-metal-extreme-sportz stereotype that came between post-grunge and emo, and encompassed everything from Limp Bizkit to Eminem to Tom Green?
It feels as though, with every big US rock movement, there's often a whole tribal mentality going on: with grunge it was about internalised self-loathing and deprecation, anti-machismo, anti-excess etc, whereas the nu-metal thing was more a bratty and aimless lashing-out at middle-class suburban boredom epitomised by songs like 'Break Stuff'. And then with emo, it all got internalised again. Are these scenes just backlashes against each other - grunge as an answer to hair-metal, nu-metal an answer to grunge, emo an answer to nu-metal? Or is there a deeper reasoning behind these? Could 9/11 have killed nu-metal? Was the early-90s economic downturn partly responsible for grunge asceticism?

i really like this one.

so, is this album a one off, or, did any other metal/industrial bands try this type of stuff out ?

i suspect there are loads of metal bands adding drops/electronics, but i am old and need some pointers.

a lot of the nu-metalcore bands I can't really get behind seem to have pretty heavy electronic elements

i would love some band names as i have absolutely no idea, but need a starting point other than this lot and LP of course.
screamcore vocal bands are not of interest.

mark e, Thursday, 28 September 2017 19:09 (six years ago) link

Progenie Terrestre Pura did a bit of wubbing on their last album, and have a lot of electronics anyway... if you mean "screamcore" as in anything with harsh vocals they might not be for you but that's all I've got sorry :/
