I can stomach a Big Hunk O' Cheese but not Korn.

CRAP

A band that is encrusted and caked with shit.

Yeah but that video is the bittersweet icing on the cake.

Makes me wish I hadn't voted crap now.

Not that I'd have voted Not Crap, just I need a third category: "Help me."

the 2nd album is somewhat interesting. but they are so lame in everything else. crap. oh wait. i have to admit that video ehre they make this parody of themselves is awesome, the one that is caracterised by hip hop artists, i thi k their axeman is played by snoop dog. classic

I give you the worst music video ever filmed.

The link doesn't work any more, but I deduced that everyone's talking about the Word Up video. What's wrong with it? It's weird and funny. It's a video for a cover song and they made it goofy. Do you really want them to film Birth Of A Nation to Cameo's Word Up. Jokes, remember them? Didn't pictures from a certain 7inch teach us that jokes are the best way to pull off a cover?

Korn is weird for me. When the first album came out, I really liked it. I was fifteen. It was different. It was loud like metal, but slow and steady enough that I got it. I actually liked their schtick; all hip-hopped playing music that didn't really fit how they looked. I think they'ed have gotten less shit for it if it hadn't spawned all the copycats. It reminds me of the Ramones leather jackets, long hair, and sunglasses. I like some songs from the first and second albums. I like the covers. I really like the guitar sound still.

Not Crap.

Probably should have posted this in the 'post while you are drunk thread.'

What the fuck.

Yeah, I knew I was going to regret that when I woke up this afternoon.

this needs a poll?

I'm guilty of owning their self titled. These dudes lived not to far from my town in California.

"head", the guitarist, is some Christian whack job now. Now I see bumper stickers and shirts that say "KoRn gave head to Jesus".

Anyway Korn sounded great when stuck in the suburbs in the mid 90s as a teen. "ARE YOU READYYYYYYYYY??????????!!!!!!!!!!!!" duh duh da duh dur da dur duh....

Korn then proceeded to sound ridiculous at college in a big city in the late '90s early '00s. I realized that there were better, more bad-assed heavy bands that could do circles around Korn. Plus, I saw a fifth-graders with Korn t-shirts and I started referring baggy-panted middle-schoolers as "Korn Kids".
Crap.

can't forget those silver ball necklaces.





I'm not sure if he made a Christian skate video but I know Jamie Thomas used to be one of my favorite skaters until he started dedicating tricks to Jesus with candle segments inbetween his sections.

total crap.
