KoRn I Love KoRn

twas the night before christmas and all through the houseeverybody was stoned

i went downstairs and what did i seea fat little red fagethangin from a tree
he stuffed the stalkingswith reefers and beerand a big fat hairy dick
for the family queers

Brad I hit "nevermind, i have nothing to say" and it takes me to this. This is two things in one. 1) it is a sign of me having a bad day, and 2) it is a sign of the apocolypse. I want to take this opportunity to expose this little entry to everyone in blatherdom. I hope it seems as absurd and ridiculous to you as it does to me... otherwise we're all in big trouble. 000322
...
MollyGoLightly that jonathan davis guy sure is making a mint off of his bad childhood. 000322
...
dean-bean Wow. The first entry was pretty offensive. I dislike it and KORn. That's all I have to say. 000330
...
roxy This band marked the beginning of a steep, steep decline in modern popular music. We owe to this band not only Limp Bizkit, but also Kid Rock and several other rap-metal atrocities. This band must die. They must. Oh, and that first entry is almost so dumb as to not be mentioned again, ever...but what does one expect from an entry beginning with the phrase "i love korn"?! Grr...Yes, this is a sign that I, too, am having a bad day... 000331
...
fairydust although i like korn, this is not the type of place to compare bands. if you have something valid to say, type something about a real word. if not, just go to a korn website and take all of your" I LOVE KORN!!" crap with you. 000331
...
girl my old high school friends really liked korn. the music was ok i just couldnt really get into the whole hype that went with the growing popularity of the band. i went to a show with my friends once. i dont like going to shows like that very much. i get claustraphobic. john davis has an interesting voice.
i dont listen to korn anymore at all. the whole thing has just gotten too big

silentbob i like to listen to music that actually sounds good. that just gives me a headache. i dont like hanson, but i dont call them The Long Haired Faggots in the Music Video or whatever the hell that was. Korn sucks. 000607

Cassandra I like the band and I like their music and I hear what they say. I dont care if someone doesn't like them. If I liked pizza and you hated it would there be call for fighting and argueing? no. When people start getting at each other's throats over something like their taste in music I want to stand up above them and just yell "shutup!" I'm sorry if this has been a waste of time, but it hasn't for me because thats what I was thinking 000622
...
Brad I think there should be a different word for "entertainment" music and "art" music. Calling it all the same thing just doesn't make sense... Korn or N'Sync is about as different from Coltrane or Stravinsky as X-men from Dostoevsky. 000622
...
roxy Are you dissing the X-men?!

Joke. It's a joke.

Thyartshallshant slumped against my bed
watching my fingernails grow longer
days turn to centuries
lights broken to ease the eyes
"mute" disengaged on the remote
"repeat" set forever
the note lying on my sheets
music sending me to where i came from
hands shaking like never before
music sending me somewhere happy
this isnt what i asked for
this is the way that i am
why didnt i do it before?
i say goodbye
with the last gasp
all this because of korn

that was fictionally true

psychobabe I love korn, they have been around forever. Their music tells stories of true life for some teens. Of depression, anger, happiness, sadness, hostility, all of it and they can take an out of tune song, and make one hell of a song outta it! Korn is me, korn is forever 010417
...
the voice of reason worst band in the world eh?
You people must listen to VERY FEW bands if you think korn is the worst, or perhaps you all know nothing about music, being computer nerds and all. It's thanks to korn and their ilk that guitarists have the new seven string sound which is revolutionising the nu metal. I'll leave you all to bop along with Christine Aguillera or whoever yanks your chain.
010426
...
psychobabe ha! hell yea voice of reason! there are so many other fucking messed up bands out there than korn. Korn is good, they've been around for a long time and they paved the way for many bands too. If you want to see a fucked up "artist" then look at N*suck, Backlash boys, or Spear Brittany. 010428

good people i really like korn. a good band, even though they did start limp bizkit. i still like them. i was listening to fieldy's solo stuff, fieldy's dreams. its pretty rap-ey, but its ok nonetheless. its got a LOT of freakin' bass. 020426

Korn0958 Is this like the "we all hate korn" website or something? if it is.. i dont see why, korn is really talented- jon davis can do so many different things with his vioce that most people can't. and im so sick of people calling him a fagget just because he's sensitive, fuck - im sure you'd be sensitive if you got raped as a child! and his traumatizing childhood is what gives their music meaning. KoRn kicks ass!!!!! 030826
...
misstree korn brings tight, violent movements, a dangerous snarl, claws to fingernails. korn brings growls and hot blood. korn brings violence home to roost, makes muscles tense in grinning anticipation. once upon a time, korn and i brought tourists to their knees, sent trespassers fleeing from my rage. korn is the primal whistle on my teakettle, korn touches me and moves me in the places good little girls aren't allowed to have. i am not a good little girl. and i rage to korn.

the part of me that always argues with myself says, well, then go listen to some goth music, but that gets laughed at. some industrial, then. yes, sometimes ohgr or atkins or some other soul can push me, can make me bare teeth and growl, but its structure is less primal, less vicious. and, picking up the voices of others, it cites such bands as limp_bizkit and kid_rock. that doesn't even dignify a response... i remember reluctantly moving to these pretenders to the throne, because they were there, and because i could bring something to them, but korn draws something out of me that others barely echo.

and then nostalgia steps in with its trump cards, and plays the video for adidas, with its slow revelation of corpses in drag, and too much of me is tickled and played upon to ignore. and then it reminds me of zoltar's industrial zone, my only source of music for a long while, and hearing nursery rhymes and accordians used for such purposes, and the evil delight glinting in my grin.

have your own opinion. eat it with a spoon. but challenge me on having mine and i'll put on some korn and indulge in a little of the old ultraviolence.

realtively unbiased karl JESUS CHRIST you people!!!!! korn is very talented, and just as valid as any other sort of music!! dammit, just becuase you dont like it, you say that its evil? and also, sure bach or something is more sophisticated, but could bach make korn songs any more than they could compose classical music? 030827

karl the KoRn fan KORN RULES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 030827

korn0958 RESPOND TO MY POST DAMNIT! oh yea... by the way, i totally agree with you karl! ..... bye 030830

krazykat i don't mean to sound insulting...but what year is it? seriously? come on now. i loved them (a long time ago in a galaxy far,far away) and they were good...but that was the 20th century. it's 2003. so many things have changed since then. 030830
...
krazykat besides, I think if you asked jonathan davis now, he'd say he probably gravely regrets ever making a commercial success out of one of the most embarrasing secrets of his life (he'd say this as the silver chain around his neck blinded you and reminded you just how much money he actually did make). 030830
...
misstree hmm... so many things have changed that music can't be appreciated? i hereby order you to go through your cd's and throw away any that were made before january 2001.

personally, that would pretty much empty me out, especially the blues collection.

and i don't give a damn what john davis thinks any more than i give a damn that trent_reznor is an ass. i make little connection between artists and their work, unless i admire both.
030830
...
krazykat but to be still be a fan of the band? like i said, i don't hate them or anything, i listen to them on occasion....as relic of the past. Imagine yourself at the age when everybody was riding bikes, nobody had training wheels anymore, kids were riding their bikes to school and all...and you're still a fan of crawling. 030830
...
krrrrazy and I suppose you don't read or pay attention the lyrics? either that, or maybe you suppose that the words are coming from a lyric-generating supercomputer? because, otherwise, the words you hear come from the mouth of the artist...hence, the artist is to be credited for the messages they convey to the audience. Would anybody have given a damn about the Beatles if they were really satanic sado-masichists singing "all you need is love?"...the artists from which the music comes from is not be ingored...if you don't care about that then you don't really care about music. I might has well just program the words: "rape, daddy, why, hate, blind, etc" into my music generating supercomputer and call whatever comes out "the music of Korn" and let my machine make a couple million dollars. 030830
...
misstree your reasoning behind "still" being a fan of someone seems like you trade musical tastes, rather than add to them. most of the music and artists i have been a fan of, i continue to be a fan of. this isn't some nostalgia kick, this is Art that affects me. time passing only shows that it has enough strength to continue to do so, and was more than just a personal fad.

i give full credit to artists for their music, an example being the common statement to hear from me, "i've heard from a lot of people who've had dealings with him that trent reznor is a total dickhead, but god damn if he doesn't put out a good remiz album." if someone judged my poetry on whether or not they liked me as a person, i would kick them in the head.

and, yes, i would still like the beatle's music if they were satanic baby eaters. the only time that the personal lives of artists come into play, for me, is when they have views that i am very opposed to; i'd never knowingly by an album by a racist group, though i'd buy one from satanists because i think satanists are cute in an ineffectual evil kinda way (just like my kitty!). what personal background the writer of lyrics comes from can be interesting in a trivia kind of way, and sometimes if i really become a strong fan of someone's music i care, but i don't need or want to know someone's life history to decide if i enjoy their stuff or not.

finally, if you have a supercomputer that can put out music that is pleasing to human brains to listen to, that moves meatbags in all the silly little squishy little ways that we can be moved, then for god's sakes make a zillion dollars with it. i would stick to top-40's pop songs until you get the bugs worked out, though, they're formulaic enough for an ai to kind of get its bearings and figure out the difference between backdoor boys and dave matthews band.
030830
...
krazykat Don't take me so seriously. What I'm trying to say is that I used to listen to Korn alot, enought to the point where I had been inside and out of it completely over and over again, knew everything about every member, known every riff from every song, the whole nine yards..like any band that I honestly am a real fan of. I don't see how that band could possibly be still seriously listened to...haven't you heard it all yet? Yes, beacuse on their next album they'll still be playing in B or maybe even lower, Jonathan Davis will still be singing about agony that he hasn't gone through (other then writer's cramp) in years and years...I was never saying (and I stated it the first time) that that they suck or anything like that. I've definatly heard them recently with my friends and enjoyed it...but they just don't musically stand the test of time all the way up to this point as what I saw them as originally. And if you really still would place them in the Top 10 favorite bands I would honestly believe you haven't heard or understood alot of music that is out right now, since them, or before. It's only understandable if you're one of those goth kids hanging out at the mall 24-7 if you're still a serious fan. 030831
...
krazy I'm sure you're probably having a blast keeping track of my typos..it's too late for this stuff 030831
...
yea my super-computer wouldn't generate backdoor boys or dave matthews band songs, anyway. 030831

ferret nice debating, strange topic 030831
...
misstree okay, now we're talking about musical progression over a career, which is a completely different interpretation of standing the test of time as i had originally understood. that, i will grant you, and also agree that korn is very typical of musicians in this catgory--i can only think of a small handful that lasted more than 3 albums and showed any progression without losing quality.

but i also don't think that invalidates the talent involved in making that kind of music in the first place, nor does it invalidate the quality of the music. so their recent stuff has been crap; honestly, i've had better albums to buy with my buck, and i've got enough korn stashed away to keep those particular synapses happy.

and i never said they would be in my top ten... aside from oingo boingo, i think there'd have to be a battle royal between about 20 bands to make it there, and the lack of variation of korn's music that you speak of is probably the prime reason they wouldn't be invited.

anyhow, it's naptime... this *has* been a very interesting debate on a topic that i really didn't expect (especially considering the lack of evidence of grey matter in many of the posts on this page), and you had a lot of really good points. thanks for the dance. *grin*
030831
...
KrazyKat I'm glad to hear they weren't in your top ten, since that was what I had been in disbelief that anybody could be capable of. I wouldn't disagree with any of what you have just said. Yes, good debate, it was. 030831
...
crimson I dislike them.
But if you mute cartoons and play Johnathan_Davis making those strange monkey-like grunt sounds, it looks like the television characters are saying it. Trippy.

iLoVeKoRn i love korn so much they are my favorite band. if ne one who say korn sucks f*** you! KoRn Rocks!!!! and jonathan davis is soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo f***in hott! 050113

misstree it's posts like that that would drive me away from a band if i still listened to them.

show some intelligence or don't advocate things. your inability to grasp basic concepts of communication just smears mud on the image of their fan base.

and yes, i still like icp even though most of their fan base is white_trash. i also am white_trash. yay me!

whatsername_34 idk korn is ok, but i dont like all the screaming, you cant even understand wut they are sayin' GREEN DAY FUCKING ROCKS, and if any of u have a prob with that i will hunt you down and hurt you bad.....real bad. at least green day has won like a million grammys and are on tv all the time, unlike porn!! 060503
...
misstree hunt me down.
hurt me.
do it.
i'll even let ya.
and since when do grammies equate to, well, anything? i'll remind you that jethro_tull beat out metallica's master_of_puppets for the first heavy_metal grammy. doesn't give green_day much of an endorsement.

and just to make sure i get hunted down and hurt, i will say, not only is it downright idiotic to say how much you love a band on another band's page (even more insipid than posting "omg korn is teh best!!!11oneeleven!"), but:

greenday SUCKS.

waits for her spanking.
