    I ing hate that kind of ''music''. If I want to hear extremely loud, monotomous mechanical sounds and angry shouting, I'd steal a bulldozer and drive it through a residential area whilst throwing rocks through the windows whilst torturing a cat. I'd tape all of it, and I swear to God if you label that tape ''Korn'', people will buy and praise it. I'd rather spoon out my eyes from their sockets with the nose of my shoe before listening to that garbage again.

    sounds cool alzu. i love korns cathartic heavy pounding style, although the lyrics sometimes show they need to get over whatever high school bullies made fun of them.

    fortunately I can appreciate the sound.

    Most pop culture is about celebrating certain patterns of self-display individualism rather than about music or anything concrete. In such cases, music is merely an excuse for the fondling of certain personality traits in order to maximise appeal, thus profit. Now ask yourself what sells best to histrionic teens

    Korn is ok. They try to scream but can't which kind of annoys me. I like twisted transistor and some of the older stuff. Freak on a leash didn't really do it for me...

    I do want to see what kind of show they put on though. Make sure to report back here with a review!

    Dude, just enjoy the music or don't. You don' have to rag on it just because you don't like it or label the people that do like it. Stop bringin me down with those negative waves.

    But of course i have to take the negative vibes spread by other 'd00dz', as if they were a mere matter of taste.

    So how should I pronounce their name, "Koyan" or "Koyap"?
    I do hate people who abuse Russian letters in order to look "cool". A "ya" is not an "r" and a "d" is not an "a". Anybody who can actually read Kyrillic alphabets will cringe when seeing these "extreme kool letterz".

    And about the music part, I find myself in agreement with swabian.

    Used to like them. The first 2 albums were good and original for their time...then they started to become a coverband of themselves, which is kinda sad...

    I find them quite... uninteresting. Compare to the nu-metal material I used to listen I was fond of Korn unlike Limp Bizkit, System of a Down, Deftones, Unloco etc. I still don't know why...?

    I like Korn a bit, the same as I like System of a Down, as in I don't really think they have too much talent, but they make some good stuff, sometimes. Not really heavy enough for me though. Want moar brootality.

    I'm a cherry-picker by nature so I only have a few bands that I could say I adore, Korn isn't one of them.

    I like Korns cover on the nightmare before christmas remix



    For those who dont know, someone (not sure who) decided to remake the entire soundtrack, with a different band for every song. I havent listened to many of the others yet (not very grand) but I think Korn captures the mood for kidnap the sandy claws very well
