    I like how the bassist is all chill and stuff, like everyone else is all dancing weird, and just generally being weird and the bassist is all, "hey, I'm just happy to be here, don't mind me". Great song and great band also.

    • @Ishiinrue
      @Ishiinrue 9 років тому +8

      +Frisbee I believe what many bands don';t share with It's consumers throughout the years for the reason hard rock goes soft; maturity. With wisdom comes less aggression. Truths like, violence begets more violence. Victim mentality lyricism is void of solutions that keep an individual harboring resentment, by being incapable of forgiving. Lastly, the awareness of the power of influence. It's great to relate to a countless number of dysfunctional youth, but why continually fuel hatred/bitterness when the outcome is well understood?... This clearly doesn't apply to everyone. Just my observations over the years along the spectrum of Rock.

    • @The_Real_Frisbee
      @The_Real_Frisbee 9 років тому +9

      Ishiinrue Oh I agree with you 100%. That's my argument against haters of the new-age Korn. When the older Korn albums came out, Jonathan was in a bad frame of mind. He grew up and isn't as full of hate, and that is apparent in their music. I'm all for growing with bands as they change their frame of mind, as long as the music is still to my liking. If a band changes their style of music (i.e. Trivium going more power-metal in their last album) than I simply won't listen to it. I'll give it a chance, but that's the thing with music, it's all subjective.
      In the same breath though, you can still have awesome heavy music even though it doesn't have self-loathing and hateful lyrics. Just look at Gojira.

    I remember seeing this song live at the university of Calgary in 2000. Finger eleven opened for I Mother Earth (post Edwin leaving)….and holy fuck, they killed it. EVERYONE was crowd surfing, the mosh pit was insane, there were people jumping from the fucking stage; amazing live performers. They sounded just like they did on their recordings. They were better than I Mother Earth, by far.
    Will never forget this!
