0566. Korn
Follow The Leader

The rap battle between Korn-singer Jonathan Davis and Limp Bizkit's Fred Durst in All In The Family just shows that Korn would have been the most awesome band if they'd just called it quits after their debut album, but instead there's been a steady decline.

The hidden track, a cover of Cheech And Chong's Earache My Eye, is (while nice that they're giving a nod to C&C and also bringing in Cheech to do the vocals) not at all relevant for the album as a whole, even though Follow The Leader features some attempts at comedy.

From being a near perfect fusion of angst, force, rhythm, downdune and seven-stringed guitars, to doing ironic songs about having made it, with disco-style beats, they went from the future of metal to the Kent (a huge Swedish, crap band) of nu-metal. No matter how many rappers they get as guest vocalists (even if they are Ice Cube or Slimkid3).

Apparently this is also heralded as the album that launched nu-metal into the mainstream. Which explains why it's such hated genre today.
No, I'm not saying this just because they cancelled their gig at Cirkus in Stockholm without a warning back in '97 (or was it '98?). Their first album made me want to put a fist through the skull of a bully. This one makes me want to put a fist through the skulls of the band.
