    This is probably the best thing KoRn have done in quite some time. Skrillex is pretty much my favourite artist at the moment and he pretty much makes this song what it is.

    Apparently it will be on KoRn's new album which they're working on at the moment. I say they should let Skrillex produce the whole album, I'm certainly loving this collaboration of rock and electro house/dubstep/whatever insane style Skrillex has trademarked.

    The chorus is actually pretty cool, but to me the rest of it sounds like just another Korn song with dubstep bits. Not enough to get me interested in them again I'm afraid.

    Wish the climax would've been a little bigger.

    Sounds pretty neat. Not a big fan of anything from Korn, but this redeems them from their previous effort.

    Korn was good, but now all their songs sound the same. But this was a exception, a little bit of a exception....(The Electronica/Electric music)

    I thought it was just ok, and I'm a big Korn fan. I'll never understand Linkin Park fans and their infatuation with dub/techno elements in everything, but I'm not feeling it.

    Sounds like a leftover from Issues, really.

    Skrillex is the only thing I like about the song but even his awesome drop doesn't save it; aside from his contribution, it's the usual stale, generic trash Korn's been putting out for ages. Now, they're just jumping on the dubstep bandwagon as well and raping it with their downtuned nu-metal guitars

    Korn really only pumped out the same shit on their last album.
    The previous three were actually quite unique forways into elctronica/metal/industrial/dunno what the fuck.

    But yeah Korn III is one of the mst boring, wastes of money I've ever wasted money on.

    I like this though! lol

    I didn't even listen to all of their last album but from what I can tell it was just typical Korn angsty nu-metal stuff, and I'm not really into that anymore personally. I don't really like the attempts they've made at changing either besides a handful of songs. It seems like they can't decide whether they want to do that or just make stuff to please fans of how they sounded in the 90s.

    I have to point out, having followed Korn for years now, a common theme is always to hate the last album while liking the one right before it and looking forward to the next. No matter what that last album was or what the new album sounds like.

    Which sounds pretty normal, until you actually watch people talk about how much they liked FTL and hated Issue but liked Untouchables, liked Issues hated Untouchables and loved Take a Look in the Mirror, or liked TALITM, hated SYOTOS, but really liked untitled.

    Like this same pattern every time.

    Untouchables was the last Korn album I liked, and even that one was flawed. It's nice that they're trying something new instead of attempting to recreate their first two albums again, but they just don't have the imagination or creativity to pull off anything interesting.

    Korn are now like one of those 80's hair metal bands that play to a core audience. Or 311. They're not going to be relevant or have a monster smash anymore, they're just playing to their base. I don't think that's such a bad thing.

    Dubstep is actually a respectable genre past the wubwubwubwubwub brostep shit, hate how people perceive as this skrillex/datsik/rusko club-tuned shit so much. Everyone needs to go back to hyping Burial imo.

    Looks like Korn's attempt at staying relevant. It's unfortunate they didn't realise they could probably generate the same amount of interest by getting sonny moore (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zrdfCtrUa44 - hold on, this isn't "filthy" bro!) to remix any of their older songs (probably even more if he remixed Freak On A Leash or something), with minimal effort!
