KoRn are a band I can't help but feel bad about liking sometimes. I mean, this is basically the catharsis of a man (Jonathan Davis) who was pretty much scarred for life as a child...
But really, they're over. They pretty much peaked with Issues and while Untouchables had some good songs, it also started the extremely overproduced sound they've had this whole decade. KoRn's music should sound claustrophoic and gritty, not huge and anthemic. When I heard Here To Stay, I started to feel the opposite would soon be true. Sure enough, they actually released Y'all Want A Single as a single, Head quit to become a Christian rocker, they do an unplugged album, and then Munky and Dave Silvera quit. The only thing keeping them KoRn is Jonathan Davis' voice and Fieldy's bass stylings. Talk about a zombie band...
