If you’ve never lost all your shit at the “go!” Then you’ve never lived.

Korn sounded so different than any other band in the mid 90's. That's what drew me to them....

Doug's capacity of psychologically analysing any kind of music is amazing

Nu metal is not everyone's cup of tea, but Korn, for me, has a certain appeal. I have been a fan from their first album. Each Korn album stands on its own merit. Follow the Leader is a great album.

Watching you do a dad dance cha-cha during Davis' scatting made my day 😂

The real ones remember 12 tracks of silence to start this album.. this is track 14. I will always love that Nu-Metal era.. reclaim my place is one of the best songs on that album.

Love Korn. Their groove is everything.

Interesting that Doug noticed the lack of a guitar solo. Korn’s two guitarists have deliberately stayed away from solos and have crafted a symbiotic sound — much of what Doug called a “soundscape” — that is greater than the sum of its parts. There are videos of the two of them working together, face to face, in the studio, that I find fascinating.

I love everyone's first reactions to the scatting lol

Love that you used the sanitised version of the track then read out the expletives in Jonathan's quote.

I was 16 when this album came out, so Korn was a feature in high school music discussions and parties.

I love this song, and “Got the Life” from the same album, but I’ve always felt they are a little “hit and miss” with their songs.

There’s a greatest hits album that’s well worth checking out, but whatever you check out next, the song “Blind” is an absolute must.

You got the description of Nu Metal pretty spot on, but one thing that often doesn't get brought up is the fact that it was one of the first Metal genres that completely abandoned the Blues. You'll notice in many songs that there is very little Blues pentatonic riffs and melodies, as opposed to previous Rock and Metal that had a lot of Blues influence.

Ok, if you are tipping your toes into this genre, you have to do some Deftones. If you do "Passenger," Maynard is a guest vocalist. I really like Rosemary, Sex Tape, Knife Party, or Digital Bath.

I like song "Make me bad" . the first albums are very chaotic . The guitars usually have no sense - their chords are very chaotic though powerful. Songs are more about drum and clicky-bass groove .  The vocalist still till this day is very recognisable by his creepy style of singing that some people enjoy very much and also many hate . They will be rocking these songs in their 60s , because their music is not very complicated and hard to play (like Metallica or Iron Maiden).

I grew up with their Greatest Hits Vol. 1. My mom would ask me to skip some songs but I wouldn’t. Twisted Transistor is great too.

Great Track by Korn and Jonathan Davis is such a passionate and versatile singer. This track is an example of Davis' vocal variety and magnificence. Jonathan Davis is highly influenced by Mike Pattons (Faith No More, e.p. 'Epic', 'Midlife Crisis') vocal style.
The sequel to 'Freak On A Leash' is the song 'Falling Away From Me'. Also, highly recommended.

This song and album was one of the first albums i ever bought when I was 12 togheter with Metallica Reload and made me a metal fan😺😺😺

Fieldy's bass sounds like drum sticks clanking together when listening on a mobile device.

The scatting that Jon Davis is doing first started as him using it to convey what the thoughts of a strung out Methhead sounded like and how you'd hear them talk to themselves. JD himself had a hard battle with his Meth addiction. He's used it a bit on their Self-Titled album but it wasn't until their second album with the opening song, Twist, to where it became a mainstay. FYI: The only actual words in "Twist" is twist and it's only the chorus. The rest of the song, which is only 50 seconds in total, is just him scatting. The "secret" track on the second album is just the isolated Twist vocals.

I spend my week looking forward to metal Mondays it’s fascinating watching you process this music
