Coming from playing Metallica, Megadeth, and other more complexed metal songs for most of my life, Korn songs are pretty easy to play. They're one of the metal bands that have taught me less is more. You don't need complicated riffs and solos to sound good...not that there's anything wrong with that! Haha! I loved Korn when I was a kid back in the 90s, but forgot about them for the longest time til recently I started to revisit my favorite childhood bands and fell in love with their music all over again.
Steve Vai speaks very highly of Korn. Munky and Head aren't nearly as technical of players as Vai, of course, but Vai loves the fact that they adopted his Ibanez Universe 7-string and brought that sound to the mainstream. Vai always believed in the 7-string that he commissioned and fought with Ibanez to keep it in production because he believed that it would catch on eventually. Ironically, Munky said in an interview once that he went and put a down payment on a Universe when he heard Vai play it on his Passion And Warfare album. Korn took the metal formula, slowed it down and simplified it but they definitely showed everyone the true potential of the 7-string guitar. Love them or hate them, they're innovators. Korn proved him right.
That has to be so hard when basically your brother leaves and also for the fact that he has to know every single part of every song where there used to be two guitars, and combine them
@@justinqualls4964 yeah but head is a much better guitar player, his solo stuff was better than anything munky did with Korn while he was gone, even munky admits It.
He was so fucked up and drunk 😢 I felt really bad for him when all the things happened to him in his life at the time and Head leaving. Glad they're all doing better now❤
It's weird because in the lesson he is playing 7 string A standard but when on the DVD it's him playing with the tabs it shows a 6 string with D standard tuning so it's confusing on if you could play this on a 6 string tuned to D standard
Make sure you check the version I covered using this tutorial: ruclips.net/video/GoBC8xRPRX0/видео.html&ab_channel=GodofMischief

Poor guy really struggled for a bit when head left

@@potluck5896 Head was nothing to sneeze at either. Munkey is the spine of this band that I've loved for over 20 years.

@@smoker-ku1er yeah that's kinda what I was alluding to with the "Head was nothing to sneeze at either." comment.
@@justinqualls4964 I’ve had the gamer tag Munky in everything I’ve ever played since I was 10 years old. Idolized James most my life, 33 now.
6:36 Damn that is some thiiiiick tone
That's why I love munky he had to put in work just to create that unique sound
This is one of the best riffs of nu-metal. I cannot listen to this without having the urge to headbang.
Munky youd be a good teacher man. You have a really chill vibe that i think kids would really enjoy . Bet your a good dad if you have any kids.
He was so fucked up and drunk 😢 I felt really bad for him when all the things happened to him in his life at the time and Head leaving. Glad they're all doing better now❤
Great lesson from the man himself. Thank god i have a multi-effects so i can change presets with a single switch!
He looks really sad in this video i want to give him a hug 😭😭
Thank you but can you please upload whole lesson.
Hey thanks for uploading this
2:22 “And you let the strings ring out together to get that dissonant sounding, sort of a KoRn sound I guess” lol
Crazy how he opted to not switch to a switchboard for his pedal so he would just hit one lol
Munkey is God.
*Munky
Munky look so much nicer in here...
Is there any more lessons like this and besides blind
He does blind too and fieldy also has a couple out there
No for this particular little series they only did this for Blind and Falling Away From Me
@@MrWillyWonka yeah I ended up finding the dvd On eBay. But wasn’t worth it. Since I already know theses songs
Hell ya, I fucking hated those tab books at West Music back in the day other than the intro to this song the rest was way off
No one can play this riff right
I rather head,but monkey is a beast!
*Munky
Is this off a dvd or something?
Yep it's from a dvd
If Munky and Fredrick Thordendal switched places no one would notice lol
Anyone else nothing that from his c string onwards it's just goes so outta tune lol
what pedals need to use?
Normally a phaser for the clean parts
Head use univibe and reverb effect for the clean parts
It's 2023 man, 360p?
It is an old video
360p resolution? Come the fuck on bro.... It's 2022.
From what I remember of watching this back in the day. The real quality wasn’t any better than what we see here, unfortunately.
Castle Bravo....lf you don't like the free content that you otherwise would have to buy, then go buy it yourself ingrate.
You act like recording didn’t exist in 2000
The video came out like 20 years ago 💀💀
This lesson shows us the importance of the band dynamic. Alone, the song sounds like trash
He can’t play the main groove lol 😝
Drop d tuning?
Hell noooo
A standard
Its 7 strings A standard (A D G C F A D)
It's weird because in the lesson he is playing 7 string A standard but when on the DVD it's him playing with the tabs it shows a 6 string with D standard tuning so it's confusing on if you could play this on a 6 string tuned to D standard
You could never play Korn songs without the low A string, impossible.
@@danparry834you definitely can, i have
he doesn't know how to play guitar
i guess it seems like he does
