So is this what Korn has come to?
This album feels almost dumbed down, it’s so weird. The track with Nas would’ve actually been good if Korn didn’t pipe in, and obviously Nas doesn’t fit a Nu Metal instrumental.
Korn seems to be riding on the coattails of Slipknot with this record. Songs like Thoughtless seem to be a more raw version of Left Behind and Beat it Upright is a failed attempt at a replication of People=Shit.
What is with this band and Ice Cube?
We are 5 years in to Korn’s career and so far, nothing has popped out to me yet. But this record has a special place in my soul just because of how stupid it gets. “All In the Family” is peak and terrible at the same time, their cover of Earache My Eye can fucking burn in hell, and Cameltosis feels like a studio jam that should’ve been left out.
Overall, kinda feels like a compilation.
I used to hella overrate this record. Don’t get me wrong, their is some quality on here, but when Chino started breaking out some Ice Cube, it kinda turned into a shit show.
