Needles & Grooves AoTM /// Vol. 2 - August 2019 /// Khemmis - Hunted

This pick is going to be out of my wheelhouse, for sure! But I'm totally down for a metal/metal adjacent pick. Push me out of my comfort level!

As for ska - I've had a ton of fun at ska shows. I do enjoy ska. Some of the Pietasters went to my high school so I have a soft spot for them. All that being said, I had a very unfortunate white-guy-inappropriately-touching/grabbing-me at a ska show incident. And my gf punched him. WE were kicked out (why not him?). And I lost a beanie because of it. I think that pretty much sums up ska. Lol

He also gave that hint 🤣🤣🤣🤣

To be fair, Korn’s S/T got some critical acclaim both at the time and in retrospect but it’s a very divisive record due to the contributions to nu-metal.

I loved the album when I was in my teens but can’t really listen to it anymore. It did NOT age well imo.

It’s not korn.

Yeah I loved this in my teens too and agree it’s aged terribly!

My most vivid Korn memory is the "Korn spot" on MTV's TRL. It was in 3rd place for so long that they just started calling that the Korn spot. It just couldn't overcome the Brittany and NSync behemoths

Got the Life! Yes I remember this. I think it actually got to 2!

Edit: it did! And also was one of if not THE first video to be retired from TRL. 73 weeks it was on there.
