    I’ve seen Korn a couple of times and they are phenomenal live! The first time they opened with Blind, it was on their Freak on a Leash tour, and the Greensboro Colosseum damn near exploded when Jonathan Davis hit his first line “are you ready”. The second time I saw them they brought a kid up on stage during Shoots and Ladders and he was just bouncing all over the stage banging his head. If you wanna check out more of his “metal scat”, check out the song Twist off their second album, Life is Peachy, it’s only about 50 seconds but it rocks! Korn is awesome!

    Reactions to this track always take me back, to when it was first released. Because that was a pretty formative time in my life. I had just moved into my first apartment, and was able to become part of a local social circle that always hung out at a 24/7 restaurant. So I got invited to house parties, and it was there that I heard this album for the first time. Think I was sitting on a huge speaker for the whole thing at somebody’s parents’ house. Another time I was at this type of grad party on a massive property, and this song got blasted through the sound system. And then I heard it on the radio. The band had definitely arrived, and I’m glad they are still going today. P.S. Yes, Jonathan wears a kilt (I believe for almost every live show by now) and plays the bagpipes. I caught them live in ‘99 on a university campus and he rocked both.

    Heya, my Scottish dudette! Yes, Jonathan Davis is allowed to wear a Kilt on stage, because you instantly are, if you open a set with minutes of piping the shit out of the bagpipes before any other musician enters the stage. I guess that counts. (I have no clue if Jonathan Davis has Scottish roots, but probably yes, and if not, who cares.)
    Guess what, in my death metal band, the vocalist did wear a kilt on stage, too. And, as a bassist, I used the "Fieldy" Arvizu trick of using a standard bass with low tunings. When he developed his signature sound for Korn, he wanted to do something different, than others do. One thing, that NuMetal does differently from Grunge, which was probably the most important influence of this time, was the general use of down-tunings, like in extreme metal, although, well, much less extreme (D# standard was very popular). Arvizu did this with a standard bass AND standard string gauges. So, the tension of the strings is much lower than standard, and this leads to a kind of wobbly feeling while playing and a TON of fret noises and presence in the sound (even more with an active bass and scooped EQ), and a strange kind of low end, leaving tons of room for the guitars and vocals in the mid-range. I always loved that approach on bass before, and when I went into death metal, I tuned my 4-string like the lowest 4 strings of a 5-string (B standard instead of E) - with a standard gauge, similar to what he did in Korn. And man, appreciation of his style rises instantly, if you get, how much control you need to stay in tune with wobbly strings - and how many new possibilities it brings in terms of expression (although I am a pick player, while Arvizu slapped the bass, bringing even more fret sounds and percussive playing).
    So yeah - I guess Fieldy Arvizu is the much under-appreciated genius of Korn's instrumental side.
    Sure, NuMetal does take a lot of things from the grunge era, mixed in more extreme metal elements and sharp, new sounds in opposite to the more traditional metal and rock sound in grunge. Some say more modern, some say more sterile, but definitely a change in paradigm. I really loved some bands of the NuMetal age a lot, like e.g. Korn for their will to celebrate weirdness or System Of A Down for their implementation of their Armenian musical roots.
    They hit my nerve, when they hit the music scene, because I just left heavy rock and metal and went on to experimental rock and electronic sounds that time.
    According to Encyclopedia Metallum, almost all NuMetal bands are NOT metal.
    And you probably can already guess - I don't give a fuck at all. For sure these bands are metal, no matter what some shitty online metal heroes/squares from the music police hit into the keyboards (ACAB, right?). These people should grow up, really.
    (Man, ranting about musical boomers and their younger counterparts is SO much fun, hahaha!)
    Have a great start into the week, my soulmate and fellow music lover, cringy QotD fangirl and funny lady. You already sweetened my Monday morning, and we all know, how dull Monday mornings are normally. OK, time for breakfast with coffee, cola and amphetamines (ADHD breakfast), and the first cigarette of the day. I don't believe that I typed all this before my first one today...

    - The song is about how the Music company they signed with would parade them around almost as if to say "Hey, look what I got" hence the Freak on a leash, cause they felt like the music company dint know what to do with them and they were almost a "diversity" hire to be able to say that they dint only sign pop and boy bands.
    - J. Davis oldest son was doing a "my family tree" or something like that for school and went in deeeeeep and found out that Davis family originally came from Scotland hence the kilt and bagpipes

    So, while I'm not a *fan* of this style anymore, I appreciate it for what it is/was. I think nu-metal is sillier compared to other genres but it got me to where I am today as a huge fan of death metal and grindcore. Everyone gotta start somewhere! It just lacks the complexity or creativity of more extreme genres for me, personally.

    At the time, opinions on Korn's style/subgenre were a bit divided in my surroundings. They didn't have the clear rapper+melodic singer combination that was present in all the likes of the Linkin Parks and other commercial nu-metal sludge that was hot in the early 00's. Together with Rage Against The Machine they were considered the most famous direct influences to, and instigators of nu-metal, but whether or not they were a true part of it was hotly debated. With the power of hindsight and filter of time, my opinion on that has solidified: while they still sound different to me from "proper" nu-metal, including them in that label is just way more useful when talking about that style/movement and time within metal. And yes, to me it all is still very much metal.
    With this particular song, even if the first verses and choruses have always felt a bit...tame, when the scat weirdness happens in the breakdown and the subsequent guitar riff with the shouty-scatty-grunty bits - I've headbanged to that on the dance floor. Many a time. But over the years I do think that the popularity did bring over-exposure for me and many people I know, and I think that really hurt the general opinion of them among my peers. But time did heal that, and I've come back around to really appreciating Korn, although I still wouldn't say I'm a fan.
    But in my experience no metalheads at the time were Korn fans, because it was just not loud/technical/distorted/whatever enough for them. There was just so much metal that was so much more... of anything that could draw someone to metal. There was a large group of angsty teen fans of course, but those usually either grew out of it or moved on deeper into metal. Korn was appreciated, but they didn't have many real persistent fans. I actually don't think I've known a single one. But everyone knew them.

It was only when the major record labels came in with Limp Biscuit / Papa Roach and that whole over produced ,forced rap onto pop metal thing that it became a term. "nu-metal" probably a term made by those same majors to sell it to kids.
    Korn always felt more honest to me, genuine hip hop influence from the likes of Cypress Hill and a more dj and punk approach to guitar riffs.
    Also on the first record he's screaming about being R*p*d by his dad, hardly commercial.

    Theres a chunk of great nu metal bands and albums. Like most genres the cream rises to the top, and is able to gain some longevity. But theres alo a few of the kesser known/shorter lived ones that did great stuff.

    Out of every band, people have told me that this band saved their life at some point more than any other band by a huge margin. This band talked a lot about stuff that people didn't talk about on their records. Nobody and I mean nobody else would have TOUCHED the song "Daddy" with a 1,000,000 foot pole

    Jon's voice continued to get more nasal as years went on, almost alienating the old fan base which would eventually move off Korn to find heavier music.

    I was never a fan of Korn or Nu Metal as a whole. I also never liked Jonathan's singing style or voice. But each to their own. He has and Korn do, have more talent in their wee fingers than i do in my whole body. I respect them fir doing what they do, even if it isn't my cup of tea. I don't understand why people dish shite on people and things that they hate. If you don't like it, listen to something else and be happy. There's enough arseholes in the world that aren't happy and like to bring others down, so why add to them. There are plenty more other trees in the Dark Metal Forest to choose from.
