What a farce bands like this were. Bands like this brought in the jocks and nazis into "metal", people that did NOT understand the integrity of the movement. Bands like Korn perverted heavy metal, thus the moniker "nu" metal. I found these bands and their bland drop-D tuning to NOT be very intelligent in either their lyrical approach or personal perspective. It's no shock bands from this genre tend to either an apolitical approach or even to the right.
