And they're also one of these anger-based bands (Metallica, et al.)who are doomed to fail if they ever become successful. I mean, scream, bitch and whine about terror and tragedy, it hurts, i'm alone, blah blah blah... SHUT THE FUCK UP ALREADY! When you've got the cash money chart topping bling bling music videos, when you have fan clubs and your albums are featured in the K-mart circular, none of that shit is valid. But I actually think Korn is pretty talented- the bassist and drummer are tight like spandex on sumo.
So the correct answer is neither classic nor dud.

It is too bad that Korn made more than two albums though.

If Korn are the Joy Division of Nu Metal, I guess that'd make Limp Bizkit....INTERPOL!!
or, you know, Crime and the City Solution, maybe. Whatev, Bev.

Oh damn, I hope not.
Rob Zombie/White Zombie have had a couple of singles that kill anything I have heard from Korn or Gimp Trisket. "More Human Than Human" is great. Of course, Rob Zombie is old as dirt and didn't make it until later and probably played in bands that covered Judas Priest.
System of a Down seems pretty respectable to me in comparison to the Korn/Bizquick axis.

the two system albums could have made one semi-decent album, especially if daron hadn't insisted on doing most of the singing. I mean really, your singer has an amazingly powerful and distimctive voice, so you make him sing back-up to your nasal whining? what!? and I can really live without crap like 'lonely day' and those hollywood songs.

i was listening to some korn multi-track stems for a ...project and was really surprised at all the little details that i had never noticed-- particularly the harmonies on the 'falling away from me' bridge. props to the band and producers

also crazy how terrible fieldy's bass is in isolation in comparison to how transcendent and iconic it becomes in context

― flamenco drop (BradNelson), Tuesday, 7 February 2023 17:35 (one year ago) link
korn was one of the few major nu-metal bands that never had a dj so i personally think of fieldy as the dj, or at least as much a percussionist as a bassist
― flamenco drop (BradNelson), Tuesday, 7 February 2023 17:36 (one year ago) link
That drummer oozing Chad Smith vibes.
How come all these nu metal bands have ringing ska band snares? Is it to pop above the rumbling of all the drop C guitars?

the bass is fascinating and this band’s sound is addictive, I could seriously listen to them just jam out on one chord for 20+ minutes

their last one was pretty solid. some of the vocal tics that made them hard to bear back when are less in evidence. they have a thing & it's pretty cool when it hits
