Korn is simply awful
 
I've never really liked the band to begin with, but god damnit, they are bad. I was getting some taco bell for lunch and the local rock station, 98.9 the Rock does a 4 in a row lunch block of rock. Today was Korn. They are simply an awful band. Johnathan Davis relies way to heavily on making funny sounds and a growly voice to cover up his weak sing abilities. And the band, well you know a band sucks when ever song is in Drop D and there is keyboards.

Discuss.

Yeah, pretty much one of the worst bands around. I absolutely hate them.. if they ever come on the radio even in someone else's car I am like "Fuck this.." and change the station. Can't believe I ever used to somewhat like them when I was back in school. If I could go back in time like mentioned in Supreme's thread, I would go back in time and punch myself in the face for ever listening to them.

thedamndest 05-19-2008 04:32 PM

I think they play even lower than drop D.

Zen v.W.o. 05-19-2008 05:28 PM

we gonna wake up hate, we gonna fuck you up!

D Mac 05-20-2008 03:51 AM

Blind was a kickass song tho.

El Fangel 05-20-2008 03:53 AM

I personally only ever liked Twisted Transistor

D Mac 05-20-2008 03:54 AM

ARE YOU READYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

What Would Kevin Do? 05-20-2008 03:57 AM

Their first 2 cds (Korn and Life is Peachy) were good, Follow the Leader wasn't bad... The rest are fucking awful.

Rammsteinmad 05-20-2008 04:10 AM

Got their first five albums, but never really liked them. Every song is the same... I've always said that, but there's always some Korn fan waiting to defend them.

Actually, I remember reading this "Top 100 Guitarists" list somewhere, where Korn's guitarists were like 50 or whatever, and John Petrucci (Dream Theater) was 51. Fuck that if you don't know who Petrucci is listen to some Dream Theater. No way is he beneath the fucking Korn guitarists.

Either that was a typo with the 5 in front of the 1, or the person making the list was on crack.

Also I hate when people say my favorite band is a Korn rip-off, makes me want to punch them in the throat.

Fabien Barthez 05-20-2008 11:08 AM

They are pretty simplistic, but i'm OK with that if sounds cool. Early Korn does sound cool. Makes me bounce my head. I don't always need 3 and a half minutes of musical genius.

Were the Top 10 on the list all Kerry King?

Rammsteinmad 05-20-2008 11:38 AM

Only if Rob Flynn made the list.

BigDaddyCool 05-20-2008 12:25 PM

So yeah, that list is crap, do don't worry about it. BTW, who is Dream Theater, and why should I care?

Kris P Lettus 05-20-2008 02:28 PM

I have a few of their shits on my PSP.. Def love their Ice Cube cover of Wicked..

Destor 05-20-2008 02:44 PM

One of the worst bands to make it big of all time.

Destor 05-20-2008 02:44 PM

...maybe the Stones or Kiss, but they're up there.

Tommy Gunn 05-20-2008 02:54 PM

I think they peaked in 99 with Issues and ever since have become a complete failure.

You don't really have to care. All I'm saying is that Korn's guitarists were rated higher than John Petrucci, who is arguably one of the best guitarists today, and has a billion times more talent than both Korn guitarists combined.

Rammsteinmad 05-20-2008 03:16 PM

But if you need an example, try and find a Dream Theater song called "The Glass Prison", or a Liquid Tension Experiment song called "Acid Rain" (Also featuring Petrucci)... let's see if Korns guys can play that.

I remember those days well... everyone had a Korn hoody back then and were all doodling that doll or whatever... But I guess at the time the music reflected a lot of the youngsters "Nobody cares about me, and I don't care about them, fuck the world" kinda attitude.

Vastardikai 05-20-2008 04:13 PM

The best Korn song ever was "Falling to Pieces."

Too bad that it was actually done by Faith No More, and was used as the template for EVERY Korn song.

Blasted 05-20-2008 05:00 PM

Korn was ok during their first 3 albums, then they just went to shit. Still one or two songs I listen to, Blind and another I cant remember the name of

El Fangel 05-20-2008 05:26 PM

Alot of Korn songs really do sound the same now that I think about it.

Not too surprised to be honest.

therocksays 05-20-2008 05:27 PM

korn doesnt suck. only album i didnt care for and sucked was issues.

destor? KISS and rolling stones awful? are you on fucking drugs kid?

just a question.

BigDaddyCool 05-20-2008 05:41 PM

Destor is on meth.

therocksays 05-20-2008 05:53 PM

How controversial. I like it. :cool:

BigDaddyCool 05-20-2008 05:56 PM

That wasn't a joke.

Destor 05-22-2008 08:01 AM

They all suck something awful.

The Mask 05-22-2008 08:13 AM

surely it's are, not is. why do people refer to bands as is. they are a collective of people, thus are. solo artists are allowed is, like elton john.

elton john is awful would be correct, in many different ways.

Destor 05-22-2008 08:18 AM

The Mask are simply awful

The Mask 05-22-2008 08:29 AM

they must be. no way a band could live up to my great name.

Kane Knight 05-22-2008 09:20 AM

People just hate on Korn now that it's cool to do so...:roll:

Or any sort of talent at all, apparently.

It's grammatically correct to refer to a entity like a band as a single being.

The Mask 05-22-2008 09:24 AM

but why. it sounds ridiculous, to me at least.

Kane Knight 05-22-2008 09:25 AM

Doesn't sound ridiculous to me. Anyway, the important thing is that the Rolling Stones suck, and I lost fifty pounds on the Destor diet.!

BigDaddyCool 05-22-2008 10:11 AM

BDC hates thing regardless of it being cool.

Destor 05-22-2008 10:13 AM

I think we need more discusion on how terrible the Stones and/or Kiss are if you ask me.

Kane Knight 05-22-2008 10:13 AM

Yeah, it wasn't aimed at you.
