Death of KoRn

[zimmunky]

this sucks so bad. Brain Head Welsh left KoRn to find Jesus. KoRn is dead now! They've been my favorite band since god knows when and now there gone. They're still making a Greatest Hits Vol 2 but without Head, its not the same. Im sorry, but i wanted to mourn for the loss of KoRn, if anyone can syphithize with me then please post but if your gonna talk <img src=http://forums.eyesonff.com/images/smilies/rpg_009.gif><img src=http://forums.eyesonff.com/images/smilies/rpg_009.gif><img src=http://forums.eyesonff.com/images/smilies/rpg_009.gif><img src=http://forums.eyesonff.com/images/smilies/rpg_009.gif>, then do it somewhere else, because this really does suck for me.

No big loss. I'd certainly say a man going to pursue something that deep and meaningful to him is much more important that staying with a sub-par band.

[zimmunky]

you're always on my ass, but anyway...yes i know that priorities are important and i am not expressing anger, just sadness. and subpar my ass. korn rocks.

Making? Since when do artists ever put real effort into Greatest Hits albums? It'll be the same with or without him. Really...all you do is compile your hits onto one CD and voila...heck, I can do that right now with the tools I have and the albums I have.

Anyways, I never liked Korn. They were dead for years as far as I'm concerned. Some bands never really know when their talent has diminished...and when you put out a Greatest Hits album(especially a 2nd one), it usually means you've ran out of ideas.

I'm always on my ass? I barely know you exist, get over yourself.

Subpar indeed. My opinion is as important as yours. If you want nothing but 'omfg korn no ;_;', go post at a KoRn board.

[Lindy]

omg, korn no ;__;

*emo power erupts*

Just because they broke up doesn't mean that ALL OF THEIR PREVIOUS WORK HAS BEEN BURNT TO ASHES AS IF TO DENY THEIR PREVIOUS EXISTANCE.

Suck it up emo boy and go listen to your "rebellious" music.

wtf are you talking about? They didn't have any more hits, the singles from the last ablum are on volume 1.
Since you don't know wtf you're talking about, I certainly hope they're not going to break up because of losing one gutairist. Head rocked, but Monkey, John, Dave and Fieldy rock too.

[muchacho]

you only need one guitarist anyway, two would be nice, but one is all you need.

[Crazy the Clown]

Fortunately, even bad things eventually come to an end.

[Sephex]

Korn is the next Metallica. Think about it.

[DMKA]

Yea, it made me sad when I read about it. But then I cheered right up when I read about his personal quest to "save" 50 Cent. :p

They'll probably go on without him, and if not...well...I didn't really care for their last two CDs much anyway.

[Kawaii Ryûkishi]

The greatest thing Korn ever had any part of was that South Park episode. So they may as well have "died" sometime in 1999.

emo boy? wtff? emo doesnt even exist, to label anything as emo is to be borderline retarded. and i dont listen to rebellious music, theres no such thing as that either. its all just pop culture bull<img src=http://forums.eyesonff.com/images/smilies/rpg_009.gif><img src=http://forums.eyesonff.com/images/smilies/rpg_009.gif><img src=http://forums.eyesonff.com/images/smilies/rpg_009.gif><img src=http://forums.eyesonff.com/images/smilies/rpg_009.gif>, i just really like KoRn.

[Montoya]

I don't think they are going to break up just because they lost one of their guitarists. I like Korn, but nothing lasts forever.

[Meat Puppet]

I hope they break up, in spite of [someoneihate].

[Skogs]

Korn is the next Metallica. Think about it.

Does that mean that Head will go form some Christian metal band and still incessently whinge about his days in KoRn?

Yeah, no big loss there.

[Captain Maxx Power]

In a nutshell:

Korn bring out ST (Korn). It rules, no questions asked
Korn bring out Life is Peachy (or "the funny one" as I like to call it). It's formulaic, but still good
Korn bring out Follow the Leader (or "the bling-bling one"). It's very poppy, loses touch with roots, the "korn kidz" kick up a right fuss.
Korn bring out Issues (or "the wierd one"). Bit better, but everyone's sorta indifferent.
Korn bring out Untouchables (or "the s4!7 one"). Nobody likes except people who aren't fans of korn. Figure THAT one out!
Korn bring out Take a Look In the Mirror (or "sounds kinda like all the others, but it's probably the second best next to ST" one). By this time a lot of people don't notice.
Brian Welch finds Jesus
James Scaffer finds Buddha
David finds Allah
Fieldy finds an MTV series involving one of the following : Pimping someone's ride/surprising celebrities/lifestyles of the rich and famous
JD go off and does more random vampire movies and stuff with Clive Barker
The world carries on until the Sun explodes after depleting it's hydrogen supply and expanding to a Red Giant.

That's pretty much all you need to know (anything after Brian Welch is a prediction on my part). Basically Korn were significant when they first came out, but now they're just "another nu-metal band". I wouldn't be at much of a loss if they split, they've done what they needed to do.

Actually, I mean that Korn will go on to make the same boring, redundant crap over the years amd mindless "hardcore" fans will buy their albums no matter how terrible it sounds.

I liked their first two albums a lot, but after that I found it hard for me to get into them. Their last two or three albums has sounded the SAME DAMN WAY. Musically, Korn hasn't evolved for years. And that's the way I feel about Metallica too, hence the comparison (the difference is I was never a big Metallica fan).

Precisely. I'd also say that Brian Welsh leaving is only the 'official' death of Korn. They essentially died years ago in my opinion, and will stay dead even if they recruit another guitarist. Welsh is porbably making the right decision for himself - there clearly wasn't much left to do in Korn.

is he lost?

Yeah , that rocked.
How about that song ... " beating me , beating me down , down , down into the ground "

" Groovy ". :)

[boris no no]

they were dead long before he left!
as soon as they relaesed issues it was all over

that was funny as hell. yeah, music is turning into a drag latly. i always thought that KoRn was better than that, but at least they broke up before they released anything that completly let me down. I liked all of there CD's, the st and life is peachy better than the rest, but the only song that i have ever disliked by KoRn is word up and its not even really there song. After there Vol 2 comes out, thats all she wrote.

Is posting about kr0n a bannable offense?

I vote it should be from now on.

[krissy]

^ other hand

[*ETERNAL FANTASY*]

Its always awkward with the "other hand"...it will never be the same!

[**ShadowZone**]

I first heard about this on the KERRANG website and was gutted. I have been a huge, HUGE fan of KoRn for years. I first heard them back in 1996 and fell in love. They are my favorite band in the world and I am still crying over this. (I can’t stop) I knew this would happen one day but I refuse to believe it. I really don’t know what to say though except that I am generally upset over this and wish it is not true. (please say it isn’t true)

I am too upset to talk about this anymore, I will post back later…

:cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry:

[mateoff8]

zimmunky when i heard that head left the band it was just as bad as when dime-bag from pantera got shot and died. my brother has been a KORN fan since i could rememmber and now is hevy on the drugs thats how much he loves them KORN rased my brother and I.

[UltimateSpamGrover]

I never liked Korn, so goodbye I guess

[crashNUMBERS]

KoRN Sucks!!

[Perducci]

Who really cares?
KoRn lost a guitarist. Life goes on.

I'm not saying that I don't like them or anything, but all bands eventually come to an end. It's what bands do. A couple of my favorite bands are broken up (Rage Against The Machine, Faith No More, and various others), but at least I can still listen to all the stuff they did before they broke up.

Besides, there are much better bands out there than KoRn anyway, it's not such a big loss, even if they are your favorite band...
