Korn: Classic Or Dud?

"h@rd3r" completely earns its title

I was totally ready to lazily post this to rolling worst but.....tbh it's goofy and committed and it's for a good cause. and also it tickles me whenever a huge artist makes a bandcamp page

does he sing it in his nasal voice

it's even goofier because yelawolf does most of the vox!

new album, requiem, in february. they've been on a roll so i'm stoked

oh wow that song is very good as well

thinkin bout the drums on "porno creep"

then thinking about how david silveria’s drumming totally went to sleep when he was forced to play to a click on successive korn records

Whoa

all right i'm going to learn "porno creep"

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

fieldy's flicka flicka sproing walked so that brr brr deng could run

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

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?

I always have had a soft spot for these guys, feel a little bad for not keeping up from the late 00s onward

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

xxp the piccolo snare! always makes me think of 60s funk… and 311

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

Korn should now be eligible for the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Think bout dat
