Issues Explicit Lyrics
Description
Korn: Jonathan Davis (vocals, bagpipes, drums, programming); Munky, Head
(guitar); Fieldy (bass, programming); David Silveria (drums). Additional
personnel: Jeffy Lube (programming). Recorded at A&M Studios, Hollywood,
California and Southern Tracks Recording, Atlanta, Georgia. The music of Korn
speaks to those on the fringes of society. The band’s trademark hip-core has
evolved into a more clearly defined but equally urgent musical vision. Korn’s
sense of musical urgency and its ambition to make its mark on music is
furthered with ISSUES. “Beg for Me” is a track likely to incite the swirling
pits at the band’s legendary live shows. Showing that the group hasn’t lost
its down-to-earth sensibility, Korn invited fans to compete for the cover art
of ISSUES, releasing versions featuring the winning piece as well as the
efforts of three finalists. The emotional journey undergone by vocalist
Johnathan Davis on tracks like “Hey Daddy” is truly strengthened by his
movement away from his more abrasive vocal style and toward a more dominantly
melodic approach. Davis digs more deeply into his tortured emotions on efforts
such as “No Way,” where he sings: “lately things aren’t going my way / lately
everything is gray / it feels like something / it feels like nothing.” That
hazy emotional landscape is what strikes a responsive chord with Korn fans and
makes ISSUES a landmark album.
