I know this is a symptom of the genre, but holy shit does any band just regurgitate the same song over and over more than Korn does? How in the world has Davis not had one life experience in 20 years that would make him write anything more interesting than the edgelord angst stuff? Is there really an audience for this exact same content+sound in every new generation?
I think it's kind of a symptom of bands in general, but I completely agree that Korn seems to take it to the next level. I feel like this song could have been on one of their albums from the 90's, and no one would have noticed.
I think the fans of this genre don’t want change. They did a pretty big departure in sound on See You On The Other Side and they got tons of shit from their fan base for trying something different.
Well his wife committed suicide last year, so I reckon that prob gives him some life experience for some “edgelord angst” gear They did do the dubstep CD mind you
He's almost literally writing the same music and lyrics he was 20 years ago. If that awful experience affected him, it sure doesn't show in this track. Edit: Also, what a sensationalist way to summarize the events. His EX-wife (divorced in 2016) who he had a restraining order accidentally combined too many drugs and prescriptions according to the ME report. It wasn't ruled a suicide. It still sucks, but he's still writing generic edgelord music.
