Album Info..:
A decade after changing the metal landscape drastically with their self-titled debut
juggernaut, Korn got the best-of treatment just as their standing began to seem
increasingly shaky, commerically at least. Greatest Hits, Vol. 1 sadly isnt the disc
it ideally could be, but it nonetheless summarizes how steady Korn were over the
years, developing their sound oh so slightly from one album to the next and, in the
process, coming up with several unquestionably killer songs every go-round. The
bands six full-lengths resulted in enough of those killer songs to fill this best-of
to the brim; in fact, there are quite a few more that could have been compiled here
as well if there were more space on this single-disc release (a double disc would
have been definitive). As it stands, however, practically every song here is a
highlight in and of itself, with the sole exceptions of the below-par ballad-like
Alone I Break and a space-wasting pair of album-opening covers: Cameos Word Up!
and Pink Floyds Another Brick in the Wall, Pts. 1-3. These covers are here
undoubtedly to bait the legions of Korn fans who already own all the bands albums
but are loyal enough to purchase this best-of just for this pair of new recordings.
And yes, theyre quite curious, so much so that youll want to give them a listen if
youre a fan (download them, though -- theyre curious, no doubt, but certainly not
worth the price of this disc alone). The bands Word Up! cover is awesome, and the
Pink Floyd cover is well-crafted and grandiose. Then again, these two songs are so
well known that you have to wonder, whats the point? Like Korns previous cover of
Metallicas One, though, the point seems to be one of curiousity rather than
one-upmanship. In any event, these covers arent the best way to start off this
best-of -- not at all -- nor is the reverse chronological sequencing ideal. Because
Korn developed their sound over the years, even if only slightly, itd have been
better to map out that progressive trajectory here, rather than hear the band regress
from the elaborate, theatrical bombast of their later albums to the stripped-down
naked rawness of their fierce debut. These quibbles aside, its worthy stating again
that theres nothing but great songs here. If youre new to Korn, the most
influential and successful metal band of the mid- to late 90s, this disc should blow
you away -- that is, assuming youre a fan of extreme music with a dark, disturbing
edge. But if indeed youre new to Korn, youd be better off skipping over this
best-of and heading straight for their self-titled debut (their one undisputed
classic), and then moving chronologically forward through the bands catalog. Each
album stands well on its own, albeit some better than others, and here youre only
getting the tip of each iceberg. But if money is a concern and you can only afford
one Korn disc for your collection, dont think twice about picking up Greatest Hits.
You wont be disappointed. No chance of that. Plus, theres a bonus DVD here of
Korns 2003 show at CBGB that will give you a good taste of what the band is like
live.
Eds Note- We ripped the DVD too; kickass XviD.. Oh yea, look for it where you found
this.
