Love And Death (Head from Korn)

[HeHasTheJazzHands]

sex, drugs, rock and roll

The '80s called, they want you back.

 

[wankerness]

This.


Sounds like Vildhjarta?

Djent?

Yes. 0:30 in the song in the first post sounds more like a super-simple version of the verse riff from Dagger than any of the Korn songs linked imo.

Been spinning this in my car since the release date and it totally owns. Lyrics don't bother me but these great riffs and the production is fantastic so that is good enough for me to enjoy. I personally like it better than anything Korn has done in the past 10 years.

Favorite tracks:
The Abandoning
Watching the Bottom Fall
Meltdown
My Disaster
Chemicals
Bruises

Head and his band use Bogner amps.

I personally like the songs Munky wrote with Jonathan when Head left, there are some killer songs in that era and all of Head's stuff is awesome too, but I''m biased.

I agree. There's some great tunes on the new korn albums. However, a lot of it is a far cry from their old stuff (not in a bad way).

I'm liking Heads new stuff. Really hits the spot for old korn fans like me.

I'd have to say my favorite tracks are:

Chemicals
I W8 4 U
Paralyzed
Meltdown

Never liked Korn or their guitar style. I did not enjoy this. Nu-Metal was kind of crappy anyway.

If you never liked Korn or their guitar style then why did you bother to listen to album that was written by one of their guitarists ?

I check out a lot of shit. Maybe I thought this might be different? I have an opinion and I said it. Sorry I ruined the hugfest for this album.

 

[matt397]

Your not that important. You didn't ruin anything.

To each their own.

I remember the first time I heard Life is Peachy. I'd never heard anything like it. At the time there was nothing out there even in the same vein.

I wish I could bottle that feeling up. First time I heard life is peachy my cousin played it for me. It was so intense hearing it with nothing to compare it to. The creepy album art and that dark, brutal and strange sound. Nirvana was as heavy is got for me before that

 

[Maggai]

Life is peachy is so fucked up and ugly and heavy. I love it!

 

[Wings of Obsidian]

I don't think Head's jumping on any bandwagon at all. He's groovin, pretty much like he always has. Riffs sound awesome to me.

Agreed. Riffs are the same kind of stuff minus the technicality. He is in Drop-G on a baritone Ibanez (his 17-year old co-guitarist J.R. Is in Drop-G on a PRS baritone).

Very groovy.

Head is stilll using Bogner Uberschall head (or Ecstacy, he might have switched here) along with Mesa 4x12 cabs.

 

[jwade]

Could've sworn that W8 4 U was in dropped F.

 

[leonardo7]

Life is Peachy rules! Their first album was tracked in one month but Life is peachy is their most raw un produced album. They wrote most of it and tracked it from the road super quick style.

 

[Joose]

Could've sworn that W8 4 U was in dropped F.

Yeah, the low note is an F. Dunno how the rest of the guitar is tuned.

 

[Metal Guitarist]

Does anyone else think the tone on Korn's first few albums sucked? But this sounds awesome!
