Why does everyone hate Fieldy and his bass playing so much? The bass is tuned low and dirty cause that's Korn's style. Someone please explain why so much hate? I thought this was awesome
Well, you see, people are foul disgusting creatures that hate when something is so far superior to them that they get awards such as bassist of the year.
Lol people saying he has a bad tone....the whole point of Korn was the tone and sounding so drastically different from standard metal or hard rock bands. Shit in 90% of metal or rock bands you can hardly make out the bass. Part of what made Korn cool was the easily identifiable bass and funky grooves. Hes not an elite "technical" bass player but damn hes perfect for the band.
I remember the first thing that stood out for me about Korn was the bass and how much of a bite it has. That's what started it for me. Really a unique sound.
When you cant stand out with your skill and songwriting abilities, and you have to sound like crap to be noticed lmao guess what, my dump made a unique sound today in the toilet
Fieldy may not be the best 'traditional' bass player. But he's perfect for KoRn. And I don't care what anybody says. This solo was really cool. Especially the very first part.
@@therealdavidmac imo one of the best out there, but aye that's just my opinion this dude single handily got me to pick up my first electric bass and try it out, that alone is more than enough proof
underrated? no not at all. many people think he is the greatest bassist ever... he has a cool style and kind of invented something new but not underrated by any means lol
Underrated?... uh, Fieldy is the bass version of Lars Ulrich. He's one of the laziest bassists ever, and possibly the worst professional bassist working today. he's doing a bunch of dumb shit on the fretboard, and he can't even lock in with Ray. He's fucking terrible, and could be replaced by a 12 year old. OH WAIT, that's exactly what happened.
Love them or hate them they definitely have their own style and that's to be respected the most. Bands still rip them off and don't even come close because they have no identity of their own!
Fieldy and Ray have way better chemistry that fieldy did with David. David was a dick to the band. Don’t get me wrong David did well in korn, but I feel that Ray is just a better guy and drummer all around
The thing that makes this solo good is the attitude / laid back chill gangsta attitude. Fieldy never cared about being technical. He just wanted to slap da fuck of dat bass and put some gangsta vibes in Korn. And it is what he does. Of course its bad if u clicked and wanted to hear some fucking Dream theater or dragonforce on bass. But to believe that will jump out from Fieldy is just stupid. its like judging a lion based on flying. Lions dont fly. Fieldy isnt a progressive power metal bassist.
Fieldy was never a technical player. He's all about laying down a solid groove and a whole lot of slapping. For those butthurt over his solo, get over it. XD He did exactly what he does best.
@@nickap_ca6814 see that's the thing, it's not random. Fieldy is good at keeping a precise rhythm, even if it's not the most complex stuff. That's all a bassist has to do at the end of the day and he at least puts a unique spin on it.
@@jeremyschep3589 I mean yea he can't really show off anything playing in Korn, such a bland, monotonous, uninspiring and generic band, so it's obvious the bassist has to fit in this mess. It irritates me though, people calling him a pro and stuff just because he sloppily slaps strings
@@nickap_ca6814 haha "generic"? Maybe today after all those awful imitators and a handful of bad albums, but not 25 years ago. I always give them credit for their first album, and the 3 that came after ain't too bad either. And his playing style is actually a part of the reason they weren't "generic", even if it got a little old after 4 albums in. And again, he's not sloppy. He has a pretty precise sense of rhythm. As a bassist (albeit of a completely different style) I don't turn my nose up at that. Listen, I love fingerstyle & Les Claypool & Jaco Pastorius as much as the next guy, but for bassists a precise sense of rhythm is all we really need and Fieldy has got it.
Citana take that drummer off the stage and all that will be left is nonsense, I get the KoRn feeling, they once were my n°1 (even had the hair like head) but for someone that's been playing for over 20 years this is kinda lousy.... try primus or muse for some cool drum and bass stuff
Awesome cymbal Rack!! Reminds me of my drumset, but much different rack and I have more drums. He has the Spiral Trash and special effects cymbals like me! Cool stuff.
To everyone who says sliding up and down sucks: listen to the fucking slap at the very beginning and at the ending. If something, THAT's art. Not much metal bass players can slap like that.
john is fine he has interesting voice, head can be really creative on guitar, i think fieldy is talented but he isn't showing it bcause he is soo much in his style unless you dont play instrument or you are new to this then he is best bassist in world lol(he is still badass though), munky is the weakest link definitly,not much style or talent with him i would say
I'm not even such a huge KoRN fan but this is really cool. That band never sold out and I have a lot of respect for Brian Welch as well...maybe I am a KoRN fan...huh...interesting
I know that too, they made their music not based on flashy tricks or complicated playing, and they typically don't use that in their normal songs but that always was and always will be part of their appeal.
IMO the 2010 - 2011 years RWYA pre Path of Tottality were the best live shows KoRn ever did ! there amazing now and were always amazing but i think these just stand out
I'm very sure that from 2:39 'till the end of this video is recorded on a cd. It's on the "Remember who you are" album which is released in 2010. This is a bonus track tho, and it's only on the Japanese version of the album I believe. It's the last song on the album and it's called: "Freak On A Leash (Live)" So I suppose it's recorded in 2009 or 2010 since the album is from 2010 :)

I suppose they don't get the Korn sound. It's meant to be a little bit weird.
Ikr it sounds so sick
Louie maybe because he's nothing special and sounds like shit
@@dougpullins1215 and that is your opinion, this guy is the reason I'm learning bass.

They have always had the rattle and core. One of a kind.
@@nickap_ca6814 make sure to shave your neck beard every once in a while
sound engineers must love him though... no mid range whatsoever, only cranked bass and treble, he´s leaving all the space for the guitars 😂
Fieldy may not be the best 'traditional' bass player. But he's perfect for KoRn. And I don't care what anybody says. This solo was really cool. Especially the very first part.
ikr
Dude Fieldy is one of the most solid bass players out there
@@therealdavidmac imo one of the best out there, but aye that's just my opinion this dude single handily got me to pick up my first electric bass and try it out, that alone is more than enough proof
bass solos are great
they deserve more attention
Oh yeah yeah bro we qonquered youtube oh yeah yeah
Yeah just not this one!
That wasn't a solo. That was just a dude making funny sounds with his bass for the most part.
Am I the only one who thinks that Fieldy is underated?He is a unique bassist,has a unique tone,a unique style,writes most of Korn music.
underrated? no not at all. many people think he is the greatest bassist ever... he has a cool style and kind of invented something new but not underrated by any means lol
His style is fresh and incorporates lots of different stuff (Funk, hip hop, gipsy jazz) in his playing, but we've got to admit he sounds really bad ^^
Underrated?... uh, Fieldy is the bass version of Lars Ulrich. He's one of the laziest bassists ever, and possibly the worst professional bassist working today. he's doing a bunch of dumb shit on the fretboard, and he can't even lock in with Ray.

Dawson Hartley because his entire approach to the instrument is a fucking joke
Joseph Cote cause he doesn't like traditional bass so that's why he plays he's own style he even said it himself, he's not lazy it's just his style
The most underrated bassists of all time (and I’m an old school Metallica fan)
Lolz cun.
Drummer is.......how to express how good he is
Love them or hate them they definitely have their own style and that's to be respected the most. Bands still rip them off and don't even come close because they have no identity of their own!
That bass tone... i love it 👏👏👏🤘🏻
Without Fieldy's bass and its unique sound, Korns music would have never even sounded right, there bass was always noticed!
Fieldy and Ray have way better chemistry that fieldy did with David. David was a dick to the band. Don’t get me wrong David did well in korn, but I feel that Ray is just a better guy and drummer all around
One of my favorite bass players. He's one of a kind
u guys are crazy that shit was dope as f@#$ and very unique. you probably just couldn't hear it very well.
Korn still tearing it up Ray is such a Backbone to any band he plays for💯🔥🔥🔥🔥

+Tobias Gustavsson here we have a Fieldy apologist. He's fucking SHIT. End of story. Listening to that was a fucking BORE.
+Lonnie Booth haha your are funny!
+Lonnie Booth At least the drummers good.
0:40 that step was fuck cool

I think we can all agree that Ray (the drummer) is the most talented member of korn past and present
No we can not...Ray not korn...period
@@pedrorocha8120 he’s been in Korn as long as David was. Get over it.
@@mattmclovin506 longer
Ray Luzier es el mejor ... David tocaba duro , pero Ray Luzier está en otro rango insuperable
awesome, LOVE KoRn
Fieldy is too awesome :D
and of course the drummer is a badass too

Fieldy is one of the most badass bassists ever
Korn is forever Badass! Love this!
one of my fav drummer
💃🥁 awesome unique sound korn will always have💃🥁🎸
The Drums blew me away and Jon Davis aka J Devil is a great bagpipe solo artist as well as singer, screamer, growler, and a lesser extent screamer.
+matthew mann k
Hi screams are awesome too tho
Awesome atypical patterns of frequency depth work here
Amazing!!
Awesome.
Amazing of two
Increibleeee... alucinanteee..!!!
SO FUCKING AWESOME!!!
Grovee Bass Lindo
Wow estupendo los 2 son lo mejor
lol all the hate but he have something you guys don't.... success.
Doesn't change the fact that he sucks
nick ciccaglione yup that's why korn is successful and his basslines basically make the songs foundation
@@rilo7167 you know what's the difference between Korn and Jake Paul one has talent
@@neinjason4969 it's successful because it appeals to non demanding, conventional posers like you

These guys are so funky, you can smell it!

So good!

Muito bom cara pqp
love that dj scratching
приятный ритм! молодец
awesome
Just his style man, sounds dope!
niceee
FASCINANTE!!! DESLUMBRANTE!!!
Una pregunta... ¿solo hace ritmo y notas fantasmas en el comienzo del sólo?
Everything sounds great. Great sound quality that night.
has fieldy ever left the top string in his career
Headles Norseman e string
@@geddyleesowlnose He plays a 5 string (B string)
@stefano_ terra A Standard
I don't know why but seeing this makes so happy :)
My back feels waaay better after a bass massage...thanks guys..my speakers got a good work out too..🤣👍👍
2:39 best part
Ray looks like he’s being fast forwarded, he’s such a beast
Not even. There was nothing even technical about it. Just basic metal drumming david was better
@@Vanthaman fuck of idiot
@@w2769 off*
@@Vanthamanthank you super english dictionary
You can hardly call that a bass solo...Ray killed it tough
I think it was cool especially that first part
Barellyyy.. bring back david this new guy sucks
@@Vanthaman .... David could not get along with fieldy. David always wanted to start fights with fieldy. Ray and fieldy have a great chemistry
Awesome cymbal Rack!! Reminds me of my drumset, but much different rack and I have more drums. He has the Spiral Trash and special effects cymbals like me! Cool stuff.
Крутяк!
I need you this concert
Fucking awesome bass for this kind of metal!!!! This slap!!!!! Fieldy is nice
very good !!! :)
YEAH!
Never been a Korn fan. They have a few good songs. This drum player, Ray, is amazing! And he wasn't even a founding member.
I want old korn back!!
This is awesome!
Ca fait sourire quand même, ce 'solo' de basse...
Such an awesome bassist
overstatement...
SO SHWEEEETTT...much love Tee with LIONS NAMED LEO.[the music worldwide}
and ooo wee Terry yeah..!!!
what concert is this from i wanna watch that seems badass
Thumbs up drums. Thank you bassist for stopping, oh wait, he's back.
To everyone who says sliding up and down sucks: listen to the fucking slap at the very beginning and at the ending. If something, THAT's art. Not much metal bass players can slap like that.
KoRn
Bad ass video!!
i feel like the drummer is responsible for the flow and writing of all of their songs lol
Hes pretty much the only one with any real talent in the band.
Uh, Jon's vocals? Heads' guitar playing? Fieldy's bass?
john is fine he has interesting voice, head can be really creative on
guitar, i think fieldy is talented but he isn't showing it bcause he is
soo much in his style unless you dont play instrument or you are new to
this then he is best bassist in world lol(he is still badass though),
munky is the weakest link definitly,not much style or talent with him i
would say
I'm not even such a huge KoRN fan but this is really cool. That band never sold out and I have a lot of respect for Brian Welch as well...maybe I am a KoRN fan...huh...interesting
I know that too, they made their music not based on flashy tricks or complicated playing, and they typically don't use that in their normal songs but that always was and always will be part of their appeal.
im the only one who was looking for "drum and bass" the genre?
that Drum kit looks dope afirma
No Solo, Yes Jam !
tomela barbon, eso es lo ke llamo un superbajero, toda la escencia de un superbassman
Which concert?
The drummer is so underrated
aww this video got me all excited cos I thought it meant korn had branched out into dnb!
still some mad sick shit tho
IMO the 2010 - 2011 years RWYA pre Path of Tottality were the best live shows KoRn ever did !
there amazing now and were always amazing but i think these just stand out
SLAPPIN' DA BAAYZ MAN!
awesome!!! i´ve been a freak from 96 and still a fuckin freak i luv this
Who cares? Its music. They're just having fun
Fucking awesome, Thanks man for that upload!

i will check it them out
Holy shit! Look at Ray go!!
people go crazy when they see a double bass... .its the biggest teasing of ever.
What you guys think, how much does that drumset cost?
Fieldy was playing his part for "falling away from me" as a solo
Korn for the rest if my damn life.
When I saw "Drum and Bass" I had a completely different idea what this vid would be about.
good......
Which concert?
¿Que concierto es?
It takes ALOT of skill to play the bass like that guy at the start !
1:45 Epic Drum !
Where was that Korn's live show?
I'm met fieldy in 2010
What song did Korn play before the drum and bass solo?
i wish i had amazing dreads like Fieldy
