Korn

Korn is an American rock band formed in 1993, often associated with the emergence of nu metal. Their sound combines downtuned, heavily distorted guitars, a prominent percussive bass tone, and rhythms that draw on metal and hip hop influences, paired with Jonathan Davis's distinctive vocal delivery that ranges from quiet melodic lines to anguished shouts and unconventional vocal effects; lyrical themes frequently center on personal pain and alienation, and their early work helped shape a darker, abrasive strand of alternative metal.
