Korn continues their comeback strong streak of albums with The Nothing. Also, This Loss hits me so hard in the soul. Such a relatable beautiful song.
REVIEW REPOST #086. I repost my old reviews, which got no attention, with updated thoughts. Posted this review 1 year ago, but I'm posting it again.
After the atrocious Korn III and TPOT, Korn's kept a great streak of 3 quality albums after that (The Paradigm Shift, Serenity Of Suffering, and The Nothing). The Nothing isn't quite as amazing as ... read more
their best effort since SYOTOS. hooky choruses and nasty riffage topped with solid production from Nick Raskulinecz... that's how a Korn record should be!!
Thanks for the birthday gift, Korn, even if it does suck.
Korn are a bit of a guilty pleasure for me. Even though they get a ton of hate thrown at them for their samey, basic sound, unoriginal instrumentation and edgy lyrics, I do really love their earliest albums. Everything from their self-title debut to their 1999 album Issues I genuinely enjoy and return to quite often.

The Nothing? This album is nothing? That's a bad sign already!

4. The Darkness Is Revealing- Great (Pretty well made)
5. Idiosyncrasy- Good (I don't get it)
6. The Seduction of Indulgence- Meh (Cool. Next song)
7. Finally Free- Good (From this song =D)
8. Can You Hear Me- Great (I'll give them this one)
9. The ... read more
