On top of the silly growls, he doesn't this f'n irritating thing at concerts.  He addresses the audience as "My brothers, my sisters, my blood".  I'd rather be called a "mother f*cker" by a lead singer.

LOL! Exactly, that's the difference between being metal, and being a p***y. 

When I last saw W.A.S.P., Blackie told the audience that "he appreciates the awesomeness whenever he comes here"

I saw Whitesnake and David Coverdale was like a rock prophet screaming "Don't let anyone, ever, make you afraid!"

Used to listen to this stuff in Junior High, but grew out of it fast. Now I mostly listen to various genres of Punk, with a little Metal and underground HipHop thrown in for diversity.

music died by the end of the 90s. its deppressing how lame everything is now. especially rock music. though, the record companys and radio pretty much control what we hear, and there are very tight restrictions on creativity. I think nu-metal is a joke. I guess korn can take credit for starting this genre, there were others, but they hit first. I gotta say, I was really in to korn, all the way up to "issues". after that, they dissapointed me and let me down. they are a perfect example of how success can ruin artists. if you consider them artists. I rejected them at first, just because everybody was into them. somehow i got into them around the second album. i appreciated the rawness in their music, and the fact that they really couldnt play (or sing) but they made it work. that sound pretty much set the standard for "the detuned guitar screaming about my dad raping me" thing. there were very few bands that came out of that genre that i could stand. all that whining and crying. dude, your 35 years old, if you dont like daddy touching you, you should move out.

Korn's first three albums or so were just great.  Then they got really successful with "Follow The Leader', got blown up and all over MTV, and it went downhill.
