i have listened(begrudgingly) to all your favourite tracks off the Korn albums you have posted MH and "twisted transistor" is the only one i genuinely like on a first listen...
as for the scores:
1.1,1.2,1.3,1.3,1.5 1nd 1.7....it takes a special band to do that and i doubt many popular bands could achieve that,and that sort of consistancy sure does rival the consistancy of Beatles

Music Head Wrote:Band Members for this release

The last Korn album I own. Looks like I finally figured out I don't like them. I'm a slow learner. Two tracks I like on this one. Two out of
fourteen is not good. Looks like the band dropped a member on this release, that "Head" dude. This is their last album to go platinum. Four
albums since this with sales declining for each one. For this one they picked up this producer The Matrix', best known for coproduction on works
by Avril Lavigne, Britney Spears, and Shakira, "who managed to give Korn's sound more mainstream acceptability". Notice those quotes. I'm not
buying it. If it had given them more mainstream acceptability, they would have sold more. I have officially left the Korn train.

I DO NOT LIKE THIS ALBUM

I'm listening to some great Italian Black Metal, who have a cool use of brass instruments in their songs.

Was surprised when CRAZY picked this artist for my most L cd's. I must have put that across to him someway. Tells me we need some more bonding
time. Never got into the rap metal thing as a whole and these guys are no exeption. A few I like but it's an even split. This is their debut
album and remains their top selling, achieving that coveted Platinum status (that's 10 million copies US). That's as high as you can go. It also
holds the distinct honor of being the best selling album of the 21st century. But now they have Beiber to contend with.
