Lol foh korn themselves will tell you they were heavily inspired by faith no more, a far better band btw
Totally influenced by FNM but very different bands. Korn’s music is way more personal and emotional whereas FNM have always been really tongue-in-cheek. Not saying Korn don’t have a sense of humor but FNM’s sense of humor seems way more integral to their music than with Korn.
I do prefer FNM, too, though.
No
i'm glad that old head rockist gatekeeping s*** is dying off more and more with each year
Follow the Leader - Take a Look in a Mirror was so good.
Some great songs on See You on the Other Side and Untitled.
The Nothing was the closest they've sounded to their old sound but still nothing really hit me like their old stuff does.
Issues is their peak IMO. I love how eerie and atmospheric it is

all these bands owes a lot to fnm too tho
korn is the bridge that made what numetal what it is
it's hard to deny the influence, but man, ive never liked faith no more tbh.
Angel Dust is a great album
Angel Dust is a great album
i'll revisit it again, but lately i've been listening to nothing but motown and new wave , so it'll have to be in a month or so

I think both Korn and FNM influenced those bands, and if they weren’t directly influenced by Korn, they definitely owe Korn for making that kind of music acceptable in the mainstream. FNM were big but are still a one-hit wonder (maybe a two-hit wonder if you live in the UK or South America) as far as the layperson is concerned, as much as that pains me to say, and as much as they’d probably hate to admit it, I bet FNM wouldn’t be as popular now if all of those nu-metal bands hadn’t spent their whole careers bigging them up. Korn proved you didn’t have to be goofy like the Chili Peppers to have a hugely successful funk/rap-influenced rock band.

based
well said
Yeah it checks out. It's also Jonathan Davis' favourite album
when jonathan got in studio with mike patton he acted like a teenage girl so much he was asked to f***ing relax lol
First 2 albums were their peak imo
It may have been my age but Take A Look in the Mirror is my favorite. I remember getting the CD the day it came out I was f***ing listening to that s*** on my Walkman every day.
God....watching old KoRn videos and they're so good.
KoRn, Rage Against the Machine, Limp Bizkit, System of a Down, Slipknot, Pantera......good times.
damn. that last line caught me by surprise
I totally get how someone could not like FNM but I like them.
