11 Heaviest Korn Riffs | Munky and Head's Picks
Vložit
- čas přidán 18. 08. 2022
- Korn's discography is filled to the brim with chunky, groovy, rubber-band-snapping guitar riffs. They're a quintessential part of the Bakersfield alt-metal crew's sound, and while they're by no means the most brutal band in the world, guitarists James "Munky" Shaffer and Brian "Head" Welch have written some seriously crushing parts over the last 30 years. Because they know better than anyone else, we asked them to choose the 11 heaviest riffs in their catalog and explain what makes each one so physically forceful. The guys went deep, choosing songs that span their entire career and offering up tons of trivia about each pick.
Watch above and let us know your pick for heaviest Korn riff in the comments below!
Be sure to catch them on tour with Evanescence right now. See the dates here: bit.ly/3wk0NSn

I love how these two insanely talented guitarists are explaining their own riffs the way a novice Korn fan would explain it.
There’s really no better way to explain the sound of a riff without the instruments. Or a cat… I swear a7x was using a cat for their guitar solos
Any guitarist for that matter
Insanely talented? What are you smoking?
Two lame old men. Has-been try-hards trying to still be cool.
lmao, my fav comment of the year
Absolutely shocked they didn't mention "Here to Stay" (main riff AND middle part) or "It's On", or "Beg for Me".
You mentioned some good ones!
Here to stay is epic
You're right but the thing with Korn is that...they got so many great heavy riffs that its almost impossible not leaving great ones behind. Especially in old Korn
Agree! Here to Stay, Bottled Up Inside, that album has some heavy groovy riffs. Wonder why they didnt mention it. i don't know maybe the band is not enjoying the albums as we fans are
Thank god! they are just overrated songs
I love the way both Munky and Head make the guitar sounds with their voices.
8:17-8:19 haha 😂
@@jeffreylong1478 yep that's it lol
This is literally how me and my buddies talk about riffs. It’s endearing.
Seems they do not take themselves seriously and talk about the riffs like a kid who built something out of Lego. Great to see famous musicians acting like humans and being completely relatable.
YES, just a great way to communicate what the riff sounds like, they all have such great ability to describe the sound of their music and spc guitars.
I love how into their own music they are
That's the only way to do it..love it
If you aren’t making music you love, why make music, right?
I hate my own music Cs it's crap
You have to be passionate about it. Otherwise, what is the point?
@@samw6344 I write music like Korn does, it's all in drop A
I love Munky's passion. He sounds like he's talking about other people's riffs.
Munky is so damn precious.
Nice to see them doing good!
@sd Actually it's called "Narcissistic" when you only appreciate your own work, which is something every Millennial DOES have.
@@GorGob 55
@@liquidbraino He is a huge music fan, and loves and appreciates many other bands.
Korn has such a signature sound. Fieldys base almost sounds like drums. I was hooked the very first time I heard them
It's what led me to bass guitars. I asked my friend at the time who had introduced me to Korn wtf was that clicky noise.
@@jamesprestonbritt I can never decide if I like that production or not. It gets the bass way upfront, but it's so scooped all you really get is the clack of those loose strings rattling around.
@@noesunyoutuber7680its basically black church gospel bass settings but just hella exaggerated lol
@@noesunyoutuber7680 in any other context it sucks, but god damn does it work for korn
@@bluemcdaniel99you mean n****r church music
This is why I always loved them. They’re not pretentious music theory nerds. Just a couple dorks from Bakersfield who love a chunky guitar lick. Considering their long and storied past it’s good to see them staying so down to earth.
So many metal bands are so caught up in "making good riffs" that they miss out on the base, primal aspect that makes for great heavy guitar. A lot of Korn riffs are just basic low open strings and dissonant intervals, but they've got groove and atmosphere in spades. Plus they actually do get into some surprisingly experimental territory, the droning textures on Dead Bodies Everywhere (behind the creepy music box riff) are all guitar through a talkbox but it totally sounds like some kind of synth.
@NoEsUnCZcamsr Yep. I've been saying this for years. Too many guitarists overthink guitar and try to play TOO MANY NOTES. It's not that hard. But everybody keeps trying to one up riffs and ends up making them too complicated.
@@JesusChrist2000BC I actually despise people who think that unless you're playing some 300bpm sweep picking riff that it's not good. Playing that fast or cramming that many notes in doesn't mean you're good. It just means you're fast.😂
I have to say that the Korn and Fred Durst connection should never be downplayed. That era was HUGE for music. Family Values, Staind, Limp Bizkit; absolutely unreal.
How you can compare Korn to those other hacks... boggles my mind
@@tony_1980 I didn't compare them haha.
But as a joke
Jason Small AGREED. Amazing era.
"Dysfunction" from Staind was a great album.
Everything else in their discography is ehhhh...
What a sound these guys invented. Just insane. Defined my youth, honestly
I sampled them for some Phonk exclusives I kept, Most unique sound there is.
You mean what a horrible sound these guys invented.
@@bigassdummy46 No, that’s completely asinine.
@@ryanfulldark2775 pretty sure nu metal folded faster than grunge
@@bigassdummy46 Nah, we’re still very much alive.
Intro riff for ‘Good God’.
Intro riff for ‘Lies’
Main riff for ‘Seed’
Outro riff for ‘Dead Bodies Everywhere’
Main riff for ‘Clown’
They got so many…we could go all day.
The bridge version of Good God's riff is such a kick in the balls that I instantly have a need to thrash my surroundings whenever I hear it. The Hating's riff is also super brutal, Right Now is a one giant clusterf*ck of heaviness, but my favourite is definitely the heavier main riff of It's On.
@T MEX
Yaaaaaas!!! Groove Depth
Textures of that list💪
I totally hear that as well
My sediments exactly!!!
🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
Rock On
Chi, Ball Tongue, Faget, Embrace, Need To, Helmet in The Bush, Mr Rogers, Kill You, No Place to hide, swallow, K$&@. just got goosebumps coming up with this list no lie man..
The breakdown part in "Falling Away From Me" when Jonathon yells "fuck!' and the song just goes ballistic after that
I was flipping through to see if they put Dead Bodies on there. Heavy breakdown riff on there is a banger.
It's fantastic to see Head still with the band and still happy. It's just a shame we'll never see Dave back with them. He was such a big part of the sound. Zero disrespect to the work Ray's done.
It's not disrespectful to say that ray does not bring the groove did. He's just a good metal drummer,
Korn's music is aging very well. Seeing them live is a fantastic and energetic experience. I'd recommend anyone go see them while they are still young.
Korn has some of the best riffs
Agreed
Donald Trump started playing 7 string guitar way before Korn did.
@@Grimeyhoob They have that insane groove. It's really unique.
@@stevemuzak8526 Vote Trump 2024 bro. We need a Republican dictatorship in the US. Make Metal Great Again.
@@Grimeyhoob bruh wtf. This has nothing to do with Korn lol
"Lies" "Predictable" "clown" and "dead bodies everywhere" are some of my favorites. They go hard.
Predictable may be the heaviest riff ever written period.
I also agree with 'Dead Bodies Everywhere' as well.
Clown is a heavy one!
Predictable though 🤩
@@pauliewalnuts829 Written by: Fieldy, Munky,
How did you not put "Blind" on the list. I will never forget, 14 years old, the record had just come out & my buddy comes flying in the house goes to the stereo, puts the tape in & says "dude... listen to this.." Ride cymbal, nah nah nah nah ... and then the guitar riff and the "are you ready?!?!?!?!" that made my brain explode. I was absolutely hooked from that second. I searched everywhere in town for a seven string guitar, but could never find one so I got some heavy ass strings & played a six string tuned down to A. That is still to this day one of the heaviest things I have ever heard & just watch video of any show when that part comes in... Absolute mayhem. Saw them with Ozzy on New Years Eve 1994/5 at McNichols Arena in Denver, which is no longer, at the Mammoth Event Center, which is no longer, the Ogden Theater which is still there. So many shows, so many years & so much great music. Thanks guys, you helped to change my life forever.
that bass drop in ball tongue is... deliscious
0:30 Daddy
1:40 Ball tongue

4:35 Lost in the Grandeur

Should be pinned top comment
@@JacksonOfTheJerry another insanely heavy album they didn’t touch: the nothing
@@piercesargeant one of their best albums
nothing from Untouchables is impossible!!!!
Glad to hear David getting recognition. Such and influence on Korns sound
he set that era
Too bad he's bitter towards the band.
@@geddyleesowlnose nah he's not bitter about the band. It'll take sometime but if Ray ever leaves you could see David make a return if the rest of the guys forgive him for what he said.
Oh man, his drumming was heavy as shit.
@@Fraggzila - What did he say?
Not surprised it’s mostly their first album❤️ it’s always going to be a masterpiece
The pre chorus riff in Blind is incredibly heavy and is pure funk at the same time. One of my favorite Korn moments
The breakdown riff for Freak On a Leash still breaks my neck. It’s so simple, but SO brutal
GO!
I can’t back this enough dude, I love that fucking riff so much
@@stephenscholl2627 I’m more than happy that you agree! :D
Korn is one of the darkest, heaviest, most unique and musically talented bands on the planet. It’s amazing because many people who hear Korn it sounds horrible. I think that’s what makes it even better.
When it comes to music, the only thing that matters is how I feel about it. Never cared much about what other people think.
Ball Tongue has got to have one of the greatest intros to any metal song in history. You can just feel the energy inside building up.
And freak on a leash has the best build up to drop, mid song. Honestly the entire thing is just the perfect song imo.
Ball Tongue hands down the best song of them
Head & Munky go together like Peanut Butter & Jelly, these guys are made to play guitar together.
11 Honorable mentions:
Swallow (riff/breakdown)
The Hating (riff/ending)
You'll Never Find Me (riff/breakdown)
Trash (riff/breakdown)
Helmet In The Bush (riff)
Prey For Me (riff/breakdown)
Oildale (riff)
No Place To Hide (riff/breakdown)
A Different World (riff/breakdown)
Everything Falls Apart (breakdown)
Idiosyncracy (riff/breakdown)
Idiosyncrasy is awesome. Love it.
@@sammitchell3657 "When will this end" is pretty heavy as well
Here to stay
I agree so much with your list! The Hating and Oildale, I'll tell you what.
They will definitely go down as two of the most influential metal guitars ever
Definitely the ending to Reclaim My Place after JD's last "wtf".....that's the heaviest korn riff I've heard.
These guys are pretty cool, I get a sense that they don't get enough credit as pioneers, they brought a new type of heaviness into metal and then a lot of genres got inspired and did their thing
Very good point ;)
"The Serenity Of Suffering" really deserves more respect. In my opinion it was Korn's best album since "Untouchables". Love that album so much❤️
Yes bro!
I’m with ya, brutha. I thought the bridge from “Black is the Soul” would’ve came up or something else like “The Hating”.
It's my 3rd favorite Korn album on behind Korn and Ftl. That record is amazing.
ROTTING IN VEIN
Yes it does and so does 2019's The Nothing album...that album is one of their best 👌 👍
The connection and friendship that these guys have throughout all these years, is simply amazing. Just watched them play last night at Pine Knob in Michigan. They are a real treat to watch live.
Also the Outtros for each song is badass.
I was there too. KoRn killed it like always but I think Helmet sucked live

For me Ball Tongue is one of the heaviest but melodic riffs I've ever heard, it never gets old. I love the bridge exchange between these two in Got the Life and yes... I saw the South Park!
Korn played in South Park falling away from me not ball tongue
@@Noahjames27 I never said they played Ball Tongue in South Park !
I still enjoy Korn's music to this day. They are absolute legends!!!
Listen to them every night before bed.
The powerful energy in Korn’s riffs is so powerful and earth shaking. I describe a live Korn show as like standing on top of the San Andreas Fault during an earthquake.
One of my favorite riffs isn’t mentioned here the intro to Dead Bodies Everywhere. It’s Head’s part where the Whammy pedal is shelved all the way up to where it sounds like a creepy music box combined with Munky’s talk box part. And then they just immediately switch to that super heavy sludgy riff. That’s like an underrated fan favorite.
ive seen Korn's Groovy Pirate Ghost Mystery a ton of times and i love it. not just because korn is in it but because it is genuinely funny
It was the first southpark episode i found funny, and the third episode i saw
first two was chinpokomon and starvin marvin in space
Jonathan’s monologue about perception always cracks me up
@@BeemanFunnyman there some pretty fucking good episodes
@@josequintero7250 i love that bit but i had to rewind it the first time cause he just says it so quickly i couldn't understand
NIBLET !
There 1st album will always be my favorite. I still listen to it.
I heard Korns first album in the 5th grade. My older sisters apartment burned down and her roommates copy of the cassette was one of the only things that survived. After listening to that it changed music for me forever
Intro for Blind will always be the heaviest to me, hands down.
Solid riffs. Surprised they didn't put Here To Stay on there. Or the intro to Swallow. Whew. What a riff!
Swallow is a good riff. If you listen to Cold from The Nothing album, it sounds like Swallow just re-worked a bit in my opinion! I cover both of those songs on guitar and they are pretty much the same notes. I believe Swallow is one of the few Korn songs though that is tuned down a half step, most of the time they are tuned down a whole step.
It was their favorite, not our favorite. I'd probably pick 11 different things entirely - they have so many heavy riffs and moments to pick from.
That's what I watched the vid to see, if Swallow was on. That sounds almost like a meshuggah riff lol.
This group was my entire teenage experience in the early/mid 90's...I saw them at the first family values tour and still remember it like it was yesterday....and now I'm 40 haha. Such a revolutionary band who laid the foundation for many after them. #muchrespect
Id love to go back and see all the classic shows
I've always thought the middle bit of 'Did my Time' was heavy af too. Love that part.
These guys blew minds when they first broke out. Very original sound.
Here are some of my favorite Korn riffs:
1.) Clown (main riff, I also think the may be the heaviest riff.)
2.) Ball Tongue (opening riff)
3.) Fake (main riff)
4.) Lies (main riff)
5.) Falling Away From Me (main riff)
6.) Thoughtless (main riff)
7.) Politics (chorus riff. Munky deserves so much more credit for what he did during that period of Korn. Such good riffs.)
8.) Pop A Pill (opening riff)
9.) Love & Meth (opening riff)
10.) What We Do (2:04-3:06 is just downtuned groovy goodness)
11.) Punishment Time (opening riff)
12.) Insane (opening & breakdown)
13.) Rotting In Vain (main riff)
14.) Black Is The Soul (opening riff)
15.) Die Yet Another Night (2:42)
16.) Good God (opening riff)
17.) Please Come For Me (opening riff)
18.) The Darkness Is Revealing (breakdown riff)
19.) Idiosyncrasy (opening riff)
20.) H@rd3r (main riff)
21.) Cold (opening riff)
22.) Lost In The Grandeur (opening riff)
23.) Penance To Sorrow (opening riff)
24.) My Confession (opening riff)
25.) Worst Is On It’s Way (bridge & breakdown riff)
26.) Freak On A Leash (GO!)
27.) Ass Itch (main riff)
28.) Lost (opening riff)
29.) Victimized (opening riff)
30.) Predictable (opening riff)
31.) Chi (the main riff)
I agree , Clown is the heaviest korn riff, It's so gritty, rough and raw
All this does is solidify how heavy SOS was 😂
This is a whole ass compilation album
Yes, clown may be hands down the haviest.
I knew exactly what "form of...corn!" was & I couldn't be happier he did that
after being a fan for decades, this short video is so valuable, its rare to connect with you both on such a human level. your music has penetyrated nthe depths of our souls and i personally have always wanted to know you all better, , after all anyone who could make music like this has gotten to be from the same world as i and all of us.
Untouchables has some of the heaviest riffs they ever did., strange they never mentioned anything from it
Korn is a RIFFS band…hard to narrow it down to a top 11, but Untouchables has some of their top riffs for sure
The original S/T album & "Untouchables" are my 2 favourite Korn albums. I'm a bit perplexed as to why they didn't mention anything from "Untouchables". 🤔
Indeed, i can listen to almost the entire album, until that wake up hate and beat it up right weird shit. 😪 Those are some of the worst korn tracks ive ever heard (speaking about their glory days, before SYOTOS)
Embrace is their heaviest song
Eh. Bottled up inside, and beat it up right were heavy. The others were pretty tame.
I would like to add something from Untouchables, which I think is one of their heaviest albums. Especially with songs like Here to Stay, Bottled Up Inside or Beat it Upright.
Wake Up Hate too
Embrace and Blame are really heavy too.
They have mentioned Insane which basically reworked riff from Beat It Upright.
@@sweepingdenial really? I didn't know that. I've always known Alive became Need To, then Alive. And Kage became Grandeur. But this is new news to me! Awesome
@@szwak49 i mean they did it accidentally - not on purpose. Also, recommend to compare riffs from Chi and The Hating.
i’m genuinely surprised “Counting” didn’t make it on this list……that riff HITS
Hell yea, that riff is just NASTY.
These two are absolute monsters when they write together
My gift to you has always been my favorite korn song, it has a very seasons of the abyss vibe. Their woodstock 99 performance of this song still rules.
Cool to hear these guys sound genuinely excited about some of these riffs. Especially Freak on a Leash where they were like "we're kinda sick of playing that song but at least it has that badass heavy party" lol
I’ve seen KoRn live 5 times and I myself get a little disinterested when they play that song. But when they get to that heavy part, I’m always reminded of why I loved that song as a young teen.
so cool to hear their excitement for classic Korn riffs and how these guitar melodies were created and built into the chemistry of the other parts of the songs. awesome stuff.
That was awesome. Really enjoyed that. All the little behind the scenes tidbits were just delightful.
A personal fav of mine is the opening riff to “Lies” off the first record
Watch my first video, do you agree? 😆
Love that song! 🙌 It's really intense and John's screams add more intensity to it, specially near the end.🔥
Excellent choices!!! 68 yrs young and a fan from the beginning! Stay safe and have a great tour! 👍🏻🤞🏻🔥🖤
What an amazing video.
When Head guessed what song Munky was thinking of from his vague description - wow what a moment!
Really shows how incredibly in sync with each other they still are.
One of the best partnerships in metal music history.
Really have to thank these guys for being part of my life. Listening to them since i was 11 and they are still throwing out awesome riffs
The whole Korn discography is a tone of amazing riffs and unique guitar sounds. I love this dudes, so happy that saw them live and they are still on the road after so many years. Long live korn!
My personal fav is Camel Song. That chorus just hits hard! The bridge where Jon starts screaming " Take me away" is heavy as hell too!
For real. KoRn always had good exclusive songs on movie soundtracks. And Camel Song was no exception.
Camel song is one of my fave korn songs.
Been a fan since 94! I was a 10th grader in high school. I listened to your debut album and it blew my friggin’ head off! It was the coolest, grooviest, heaviest thing I ever heard. I was hooked. Thank you for all the great music. It’s been fun, it’s been therapeutic, just fantastic! I’ve yet to see you live. It’s at the top of my list. Thanks for your music! 🤟🏼
I was waiting for them to say "the opening to Here to Stay."
Small intro, tiny pause, then DUNDUN- DUGGADUGGADUGGA- DUN! DUN DUN, DUGGADUGGA DIN!
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
3:57 This is why I really like the David Silveria era... his drumming style was one of a kind
@@Wr0zen dumb decision in the long run
@@travisspaulding9540 David is a great drummer but he has a sh!t personality.
@@TheBridgesYouBurn He’s Ight now but yeah, terrible person.
They should reuse that All In The Family riff and make a fully Korn song out of it!
Agreed
"Blind" and "Y'all want a single", I love those songs riffs
I could listen to these two gentlemen talk all day long. Great breakdowns of the riffs, and very hard to pick the heaviest ones. So many to choose from!
So much creativity in those guitars, it's insane!
I would add Beg For Me.
That main riff gets me fucking rock hard.
Absolute banger.🔥
“Bottled up inside” is by far one of the heaviest songs I’ve heard from Korn.
This is awesome! Our 2 guys discussing about the great music they’ve created! Love you H & M
Clown and Ball Tongue, such killer riffs!!
Thanks for reminding me why they'll always be my heroes. Much love and respect for these guys.
My Gift To You is EASILY heaviest KoRn riff ever! Love you dudes. From way back! Haha self-titled album introduced me to everything that my soul is made of to this day! Thank you for what you've done for us.
"No way" is my favorite song from Issues. One of their heaviest and darkest korn songs and needless to say very underrated.
Wow, that’s a nice deep cut right there. My band just recorded an acoustic cover of that song. That chorus goes ham!
Nailed it great call. The entire bridge section is so great too. Jonathan’s melody writing n vocal performance is top notch on Issues and No Way is as good a display as any.
Great call! Very underrated song. Same with 'Counting'.
@@mikesaker9378 Counting is epic! That whole album is great, 4th best to me.
That's a good one to fall asleep to
Old school Korn fan here... all the songs on the list are deserving but I would add
Shoots And Ladders middle part, open riff to Lies, Kick the P.A. w/the Dust Bros. , Jingle Balls, middle part in Need To, It’s Me Again - the whole Fn song!, outro riff to Oildale, Justin, the first distorted guitars in Kill You (FUCK, the sick guitar tone, Korn at its finest), the prechorus to Bottled Up Inside and not Korn but Love & Death (Head’s side project) the middle part to Paralyzed (Fn heavy shit right there!!!) Head is an amazing vocalists in his own right, just saying. Fn Korn!!! So good!
Awesome video glad to see these guys doing videos in 2022, would love to see more!
I love these kinds of videos. You guys will always be my favorites
This is so cool to hear bands talk about their favorite riffs and parts of their songs
I like a big pre-chorus like Somebody Someone and then it just launches into the actual chorus. That structure is amazing! Love that song! I wish they would do more of that. I also like spontaneous, crazy weird breakdowns and stuff like that. Korn is still limitless and full of heaviness and energy! Love it!
For me it has to be Blind. Nothing comes on heavier than that riff. The whole album is full of great riffs. Clown needs a special mention too
Blind was the perfect intro to the band and the genre they pioneered. Like "are you ready" for a sound you've never heard before. First time I heard that was the moment I fell in love with music.
Clown for sure!
You get inspired listening to these guys. So genuine passion for writing and playing live.
Here To Stay always slaps my ears into immediate submission with that main riff
Kinda surprised blind wasn’t on here? It’s like the intro to all that came after and it’s like the defining sound that led to all the rest of these songs. That was the perfect opener to the album that made all this possible.
Also ass itch needs more love, it really is one of the most intense songs I’ve heard, especially the ending. Life is peachy had such a unique vibe to it. It was maxed out heavy but also ethereal and relaxing in a way. They really did a great job finding new sounds and new ways to be heavy considering how blown out on drugs they were. But sometimes it’s that period where bands are in their 20s and taking all the drugs that they end up making something that intense and passionate. Not saying to do drugs but that seems to be a reoccurring theme for many bands. Once they get big and sober up they start making material that is “expected” instead of coming up with something straight from their soul because their heart was in it and they were doing it because they truly wanted to and were just having fun doing what they loved.
very much agree with ass itch!! underrated song, its my all time favorite by korn
I guess because it's mostly not a Korn song. It's written by Jon's former Sexart band member.
that riff is literally just Scapegoat by Fear Factory
Thank you for this! My love for this band is never ending. Thank you thank you thank you
Appreciate you guys alot. Korn is such a unique and creative band. Legends.
My favorite all time riff from KoRn has to be after the chill droning bridge in Dead Bodies Everywhere.. some serious 7 string work on that part and probably my favorite KoRn song of all time!
Rotting in Vain became a favorite of my, it has a special place in my heart. Because i totally lost the taste of Korn for a long time, right about 2009/10 and never listened another hit...
Came back in 2020, and the first track i've took was Rotting in Vain. My god, the heavyness on that one is amazing. Never again, im never leaving them again.
I love it how they can sings his riffs! with so many details!! Thanks for your music, guys. Regards from Argentina.
Your band is one of my favorites of all time! I’m going to listen to this multiple times. The “GO” in freak on a leash is is definitely a build that fans crave…what a explosion of adrenaline! Just so superb! Thank you gents for every note y’all play👍 was thinking THOUGHTLESS would be discussed as well. There so much more than this 11 or whatever ! Pure talent gents!!!
You guys literally got me through high-school. Every morning on the hour long bus ride to school and and the hour long bus ride home. It was me and my disk man. My parents bought sooooo many batteries for me. Pantera was there too...... but life's peachy..... that CD was as important as my kids are today. Thank you for your hard work and please keep it up.
We’re probably around the same age cause same here. Hour-ish bus ride too.
Corn was always about the Guitar Buddy bromance. Whether it be chug chug noise, or the typical , speak and then answer, type riffs. I remember I was 11 years old when I heard the first Korn album coming out of my sister's room. The second I heard I heard that sheer heaviness, as well as, the absolute bone dry contemporary tuned kit, it was a milestone breakthrough in music history and changed a lot of things. They were so simple yet so genuinely honest and thoughtful. Thanks boys
This is the absolute best, and what I love to see most of all! It's so cool and rare to hear what the band members actually think, and either love or not so much, or their own music! Sometime's I try to imagine the mind numbing monotony they must experience after playing some of these songs so many THOUSANDS or maybe TENS OF THOUSANDS of times through the years. All be it they are rock stars, and we love them to the fullest, and they are compensated generously of course! Still they must get sick of these songs some times, so I think it is so cool to hear what songs (or riffs from songs) they still get excited about! I love Korn and I hope they never quit this!!
Seriously, Munky and Head are top of my list of best guitar duo out there. They way they play off each other is insane.
They're truly incredible playing together! They've had some of the greatest riffs ever! Korn rocks!
Was hoping rotting in vain was on there it opens so beautifully heavy! So many great ones to pick from! Keep it up guys love you!
How could ANY of us with DECADES less experience EVER let YOU know about your choices. I mean, theyre spot on. You came up with them. They wouldn't exist without you guys. So, yeah. Thanks for the content and amazing years of music. You're absolutely the best. 👊
I just saw you guys at oak mountain theatre in Pelham AL ❤ I’m still pumped !!!! Love you soooooo much
I love Korns heavy riffs. When Im down or in a bad mood I love to grab a guitar and let it all out, Korns music is perfect. My wife knows, when Korns coming out of the basement leave me alone til Im done I need that time. Best guitar Ive ever played it on by far is my K7, what an awesome guitar you guys made.
I thought they might have picked some of their newer songs to try and prop them up but they didn't disappoint by picking some legit classics.
It's cool to know they still enjoy the old stuff.
Really real. Thank you for putting this together.
just love seeing their bond is still strong after all these years. you can watch them light up as they talk about each part
I’m so glad “my gift to you” is getting some love
Their first 5 albums had these closers that blew my mind
I hate you,cant you feel the pain,hate you cant you feel the pain
