    Loads of great songs and great fun live. Not really an album band for me, though.

    Exactly.

    Saw them in the Ambassador years ago ……. Amazing gig !

    I revisited their music recently after not listening to them for a long time. They still have a few good songs from the earlier albums but the constant playing up of the bullied / abused child angle leaves a sour taste in the mouth nowadays for me.

    It's amazing what seemed subversive and edgy at the time seems silly upon reflection. The scatting and nonsense like "knick knack paddy whack, give the dog a BONE". Some of it really is desperate stuff altogether.

    I did the same and I think a lot of it holds up today. There's a lot of very good material on their first 3 albums and I kind of regret not going to a date on their debit album tour not so long ago.

    I'll always have time for what people would consider 'shyte nu metal garbage in the 90s' and I think it's unfairly maligned these days.

    I liked them when I was a teen, but they never evolved much and their schtick seems a bit silly looking back.

    Second release from the album and this is fairly decent, verses still lack substance but the chorus and bridge is a killer...nice riffage!

    Love them.

    Saw them 3 times lives but not into the stuff after Head leaving originally.

    For me Korn is one of the best debut albums ever.

    Listened to "The Nothing" over the weekend and it's definitely their best album in a long time.

    So far my favourite songs off the album are "Cold" & "Can You Hear Me".

    Jonathan Davis's vocals are top notch too.
