AW, NUTS: KORN MAY REUNITE
Well, so much for Fear and the Nervous System.
There’s a rumor floating around that Korn’s original line-up – including Jesus Freak Head and David “I Was Always the Only Decent Thing About this Band” Silvera – may be reuniting.
Of course, we always knew that this would happen someday – there’s too much money to be made for it not to happen – but I thought it was still a ways off. I envisioned some kind of package shed tour where Korn co-headlined with Limp Bizkit, kind of like the nu metal equivalent of those Poison/Cinderalla-type tours that happen every summer, but, y’know, without all that 80s nostalgia baggage. But I guess Head prayed on it and God told him it was okay (either that, or he saw Dan Spitz do that Anthrax reunion and figured “To Hell with it”) and Silvera realized that sitting on your ass doing nothing doesn’t pay that well.
All we can do now is hope the band isn’t on some package tour with bands we actually want to see. I’ve been forced to sit through a Korn set or two in my day and I can tell you, it ain’t pleasant.
ANYWAY, here’s a clip of Korn guesting on an episode of South Park however many years ago, which is pretty much the only context I’d ever actually want to watch this band.
