What is the strange history of Korn, the inventors of nu-metal? I look at:
* Pre-Korn bands LAPD and Sexart, getting Jonathan Davis, Ross Robinson, and the Korn demo aka “Neidermayer’s Mind”
* Early Korn albums including self-titled (“Blind,” “Daddy”, etc), “Life Is Peachy,” “Issues” and “Follow The Leader”
* How they exploded with videos like “Freak On A Leash,” “Got The Life” and “Falling Away From Me”
* The Family Values tour and departure of Brian “Head” Welch and David Silveria

Sick video
Thanks for doing this dive into Korn, I hope you do end up making that other video you hinted at about their influence/legacy.
They've had so much disrespect over the years to the point where it definitely became cool to hate them that I think many forgot most how good they can be.
Your perception about how busy they've been for decades and how willing they are to push boundaries is why they're still around to this day. Genuinely think they'll be working until they all drop dead.
Legends
KoRn's debut album will always be their best. I saw them for the first time in the summer of '95, plus I got to meet Jonathan, Munky, Head, and Fieldy in person at a meet/greet before the show. They autographed a cardboard cutout much larger than life of their debut album's cover.
I remember the first time I heard “blind.” My reaction was the same, “what the fuck is this?” I lived in Fort Lauderdale at the time and drove as fast as I could to Peaches Music, to buy the CD. I then listened to the CD all the way to my friend’s house. I was like bro, shut up and put this song on. That song was blind. They are still one of my favorite bands to this day.
their 2019 album is fantastic
Korn is very special to me and always will be for many reasons. The respect I have just for Johnathan Davis alone. When you hear the intro of their songs you know it's them and I just really love that. I love all types of music but I don't have a actual connection with most of the bands and don't care to but Korn is one just like tool that I have a very special connection with and have a safe comfortable feeling so Korn and tool are both in my heart for life
People can dog on 2007’s Untitled all they want, but it was their last record to receive a RIAA certification for going Gold. IMO it’s a great album.
Korn is my favorite band of all time. Has been since I knew what rock was.
I can't believe you've got a buzzoven flyer on your wall. I went to a few of their shows back in the day in NC.
I saw Korn for the first time at the Rutgers Gym when they opened for Biohazard in 1994. They introduced their set by Jonathan Davis walking out playing bag pipes in a kilt and a full head of dreads, it was met with a stunned silence and they just dropped into the first song and the whole audience was mesmerized the whole time they were on stage. I saw them again this year with my sister and since Jonathan kept mentioning anniversaries and bench marks I was like, he's going to bust out the bag pipes, there has to be bag pipes, they were my introduction to them, and their set continued, no bag pipes, but I knew it had to happen. For the encore, he came out in a kilt playing the bag pipes but you almost couldn't hear them over the crowd, they went insane. This band performs magic while on stage.
I loved the way Fieldy would often time his bass together with David's kick!
the amount of cringe when you said Drop A…… bro……
Seeing Korn live in 1995 in a 1000 person venue in support of Blind was equivalent to watching a UFO land with moshing aliens. Every jaw was on the floor in complete shock. Amazing
eaves dropping is b*llsh*t, but if that's how they got their name, it adds up
@3:39 that’s Ty Elam (the lead singer from Videodrone)
Path of Totality is so underrated
Their 1st cd by far is their best. They changed after every cd since.
Korn had a huge impact on me as I journeyed through puberty back in the late 90s early 2000s! The sound was so different the bass was heavy but Johns voice took it to a different level! And then the live shows 🤯 🤘! Fuck yea
yuuup, life is peachy best korn album.
Take a look in the mirror DOES sound great. I really don't follow your opinion
I was so confused listening to this without watching 😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣I walked away for a sec and came back for the sponsor ad – 😂I was like did korn manufacture anti swamp nuts undies ?
Listen to got the life backwards
