if they'd have bowed out in 2000 (and possibly saved head from having to do that xtian thing) - spent a bit on rehab for him, did a few goodbye shows - then yeah - they'd have truly done something special.

exactly. 1990s koRn was actually innovative music with originality. Life is Peachy is still a fantastic record. Even Follow the Leader was ok, sort of, not really but.. Issues and everything since? Sounds like a cliched caricature of their 1990s sound. Really it was very terrible, and somebody should have actually just told them this directly. They should have tried more directly to get into side projects and start new bands like so many other musicians from the 1990s did.
