Originally posted by Rapidfyreyou know, fifteen years ago (man, I suddenly feel old!) when that kind of music was the hottest thing, it was actually pretty cool. people were jumping from one subculture to another, pouring their blood into it and making it work, and it was all a headbanging & hiphopping love fest for a short while. but then of course the suits smelled the money in it, and everything went straight to hell. as it always does when money becomes the motive. in 2 years there was no sign of the original raw drive, and MTV & related machine had fully assimilated and tamed the concept, processed it to serve the greed. but hey, it's the way the world rolls, and we'll live with it.
Look whos talking you skeptic, THIS is real rock.

early korn was the wild animal, growling and dangerous, and thousand foot krutch (and alike) is the domesticated pet. neutered. it's the difference between a wolf and a poodle.
korn - ball tongue
one of the best albums ever made.
and for the record, the only decent christian band ever was the crucified. everything else is just embarrassing crap.
