Here’s the link to the video I did about silveria’s feud with Corey Taylor of slipknot ua-cam.com/video/Xzyfi1L3adg/v-deo.htmlsi=MmrOkS9Uw_Rj6CcO
No doubt you are passing along false information. Will once again save your viewers some time. Back in early 00's David modeled for a Calvin Klein ad. Cory Taylor was very critical burning the ads saying it wasn't "Metal". Jonathan shrugged it off saying the rest of the band wasn't happy either but it is what it is. David claimed on his FB to have confronted Cory Taylor years later which Cory has denied via twitter. The end.
I'll be honest. I made it about 30 seconds in. This is guy giving objectively false information so why would I trust anything else he has to say? Hell he can't even say David's last name right. It's worth mention LAPD actually stands for Laughing as People Die (originally Love and Peace Dude). Brian joined up with the guys before Jonathan not the other way around as he's mentioning. According to David he left Korn because he was working out one day and had a "I broke my back" situation similar to Mike Tyson if you can get the reference. That along with being unsatisfied with the direction the band was going in to say the least is why he didn't return when he recovered. Fast forward to 2013 when Brian rejoined the band David seemingly came out of the woodworks wanting to rejoin also. After being rejected in favor of Ray the rest is history. There saved you 6:29 seconds of potentially false and misleading information.
Bruh he got kicked
@@linkinguy420 Until there is official info “bruh” no one knows that. JD gave a very different story saying David was like f you I’m doing my model career and running my restaurants. Even at the time it was noted the door was open for David to come back. I hate myself for feeling the need to respond but a quick Google search is literally at your finger tips.
@@Fusion991 This is exactly why I hate "content creators". This guy has a nearly half a million followers and can't even provide basic information. They definitely need to be held to a higher standard seeing as A. They are getting paid ad revenue and B. Have a unique position of having tens of thousands of people watching their content. I know it sounds nitpicky but there really is no excuse in this day and age to be so clueless when the information is so readily available.
His drumming was awesome. Huge part of Korns sound.
But he isnt nearly as proficient as Ray. Thats a FACT
@@Str1ng5 I lile Daves style better.
@@JarrodButali Exactly Dave was way more gangster with it.
@Str1ng5 while I agree that Ray technically is better than David, David just had this groove that I don't really think Ray does, even though Ray would be the better drummer. But it's not all about technicality
Ray is a better drummer on every level. David is the best Korn drummer on every level. Those 5 guys created a whole new sound that changed everything. No other drummer sounded like David when this band broke. It's easy for someone else to come in after the fact and try to replicate. The point is, no other drummer would have ever thought to put down the nastiness that Dave laid to tape on those first 4 albums.@@Str1ng5
David's heavy groove and funk rhythms, along with his creativity and uniqueness, really form the backbone of that amazing early Korn sound. No one else comes close.
I agree 100 %
He's good but imagine saying Ray Luzier butchered your song lol. Ray is a far better drummer and is mroe versatile IMO.
Until he broke his backbone :(
@@ChickenatorJr to korns new sound yeah , play their older stuff and it sounds like a different band Silverias is right.
@@ChickenatorJrmore versatile how? Explain.
Correction... John aka JD was the last member to join what became briefly, "Creep" later renamed to KoRn... And James aka Munky, never "left" KoRn. That was Brian, aka Head.
Whatever your opinion of them now, the self titled album is an epic top 10 album of the 90s. It's handsdown a classic
They owe Crowbar a big “Thank you”. Korn took their sound.
Hahaha. They sound nothing like Crowbar
Top 10 is crazy maybe 20 if that
yes hearing it live at Newport in Columbus ,1,700 max cap ,pit in the bathrooms to , no escape . Priceless .strait up Priceless , ant liked nothing since , blind caused me get my ass kicked couple times and ant to old may go for third . sure wasn't my first time , lol did give up drinking my balls shrunk a lot after that , then wife got one in divorce , yea I just stay home . lol
Ah, no
Korn was my shit in the 90s still my shit today ❤
Hell Yeah A lot of bitter haters on here Korn will always be legendary
David was a huge inspiration to me and one of the main reasons I took up the drums. It would be amazing to see him play with Korn again, but I don't think it's gonna happen.
Definitely not
why would they do that after all he did to the other band members? and why would they do that when they now have Ray that is 10 times better than Dave??
@@j_forfreedom45 you’re not wrong, mate. Perhaps it’s just nostalgia for a bygone era. Saw them in Seattle in ‘96 when I was like 15 and the drums blew my mind. David was a beast.
@@elgattogrande I've seen em too in the 90s and again many times in the 2000s... David was good, I guess he is that kind of guy that can do anything if he puts the time and efforts... did good on drum in the band... but is attitude and the way he was acting in the band showed he wasnt a real musician, was doing it for the fame. thats why I never taught he belong with Korn, but thats my opinion as a musician and business man. very happy with Ray Luzier, its a better fit. way better drummer too. but since we are the same age almost, I get what youre saying... it was different and I miss that era too. specially looking at the scene today!!! lol everything was simpler in that era lol
@@j_forfreedom45 Ray sounds too generic. He's a very good drummer but you can't differentiate him from other equally good drummers if you aren't seeing him. David has his own sound and groove wich was Korn's trademark in their first years.
One of the best drummers of the 90s and early 2000s
Wait! Munky never left the band, Head did and then came back.
According to David, Munky left 3 times but they were able to corral him back before it ever got out in the press. It seems like Jonathan and Fieldy were the biggest agitators and got under peoples skin the most. No doubt that Fieldy was a complete douche bag and Jonathan was a total asshole drama queen.
Yea I noticed that too. I think he meant Head.
Yeh it wase Head not Munky
@@user-rs4gr9yq4u JD was indeed an ass until he became sober. Unfortunately, Fieldy still is.
I was lucky enough to see them right after their first album came out. Ball Tongue live was absolutely insane back then. David was such a powerhouse. I'm sure Ray is a nice guy but David was on a level that is almost inconceivable if you didn't see them live and up close in that era.
That shit was amazing
Jesus... I can only imagine. Ball tongue is hands down one of my favorite tracks ever by them
That's when I saw them too. They only had two songs out and opened for Ozzy on his Retirement Sucks tour. I saw them in Denver on New Years Eve 1995 and at midnight, Ozzy sang Auld Lane Syne and had a balloon drop.
Ray can rip
I also was lucky to see them a couple of times before 2006. For me Ray Luziers style doesn't fit at all...
David’s drumming had the funk and groove of Nu metal Korn music.
Hip hop and heavy rock.
The new drummer is amazingly on point and technically mind blowing.
But
that GROOVE and deep Funk
Is what makes a Nu metal or funk metal tune
It was a big part of KoRn.
He also had a lot of power.
He pounded those things
Very Tommy lee
Saw these guys in the 90’s and the drums were just huge!!! It was just insane.
Dave ripped on the drums. His licks and fills were sweet
I felt Korn was right to not allow David to rejoin the band. Having said that,i also feel the band has not sounded as great without him.🤟
Luzier doesn't fit Korn's style
David had the hip hop elements and was the backbone to the Korn sound
@@leftfield5914I understand your opinion, but I love Luzier, he's such a beast.
@@thomastrotter6155 no way he played for gimmick bands like steel panther and Lee Roth
He's a nobody and his haircut is stupid I wish he would just go away, forever Korn really need to make a creative decision like slipknot of recent and get red of him
@@thomastrotter6155 Ray got boring after awhile with his style drumming.
@@XxTheGoOfYxXno he got better. Ray in 2010 wasn’t as interesting as he would become on the serenity of suffering and the nothing
Sylveria is one of my all time favorite drummers growing up. His fills were always interesting he always changed them up and complimented all the rifs perfectly👌
Ya know, David never really got the respect he deserves. When I was 11yrs old this dude was what I modeled my drumming around, he was my first real drumming inspiration. The power he put into his grooves is what I loved, the crack of that snare with the low guitar tuning and those big beautiful paistes. When issues came out I wanted to be David silveria. Then a few months later I wanted to be Joey fucking Jordison man!
Yeah Joey is a fuckin legend
Joey was my inspiration to drumming at 15. Sadly never got to actually see him live 😔
And both suck now.
Fleshgod apocalypse drummer destroys them both
@@dcmastermindfirst9418you know Joey is deceased right ?
I remember seeing them in the mid ' 90s before the fame they looked like good friends it's's really sad to see how things turned so bad between Dave and the rest of the band hopefully they can work it out
Lol they've been going strong with Ray
Yes, and hopefully David Gilmour and Roger Waters patch things up.
@@user-dd3pj8bm6bidk about strong. They’ve done pretty good but nothing without David
Don't forget the Gallagher bros! 😂
Ray is A masterclass drummer. David is the pioneer. Time change.
that maybe true but Ray has zero of that funk, heavy groove feel David had. And that groove is what made Korn (incl the bass sound) so special, IMO.
Ray more into heavy metal and classic rock David more into groove and funk type of vibe
Luzier is a showoff and his playing basically ruined Korn. Guy overplays EVERYTHING. Has zero groove.
@@Saurion1 disagree ray much better David a pos
🖕🏼Ray, bring back David
David to me is the foundation of nu metal. On the 1st two albums it was the first time I heard double bass drums without your classic thrash metal machine-gun double kicking, yet the anger fury were still there. His jazz & funky style were a huge influence ever since, but sadly gone by the third album
This! only i'd say by the 4th Issues .. FTL still had some groove to it
Exactly this. The first two are classic...FTL was good, too but once I heard Got the Life and heard a disco beat I was like wtf
@@humb1s3rvant DISCO BEAT?!? Foh. Dead bodies everywhere is on FTL which is one of the best Korn songs EVER period
David’s right their 1st 3 albums especially their 1st 2 were so innovative, heavy groovy and funky. After that and after David left they became a standard rock band their sound has never been the same.
Yes, they sound more like Coal Chamber than Korn after David left
I don't agree. While the first album will forever be etched as one of the greatest albums of all time, the 2 albums that followed weren't as good. Life Is Peachy has some great songs on it, but it also has a lot of mediocre songs that out of the context of that time period, aren't great. It's not as listenable in my adult years. It starts off strong and ends strong, with some O.K. sounds in between. What it did have was the original Korn sound, so people seem to think it's better than it is.
And Follow The Leader is too Hip -Hoppy for me. I actually think Issues is a very under-rated album and to me, is their best next to the first one. Untouchables also has some great songs on it and some mediocre ones. Take a Look in the Mirror was also mediocre. Although, I dig the music on their newer albums, Jonathan's choruses became very boring and predictable.
I've been a fan since '98. I prefer their newer stuff over the old.
Either way, I'm so thankful they are still making new music.
@@itsalwayssomething7490I agree almost 100%, first album was peak IMO. I think nostalgia has people rating Life is Peachy a lot higher than it should be and although follow the leader has a couple great songs on it, I feel like can practically hear the fame and popularity leaking into their sound. But I'm with ya on Issues being underrated, I thought that album was badass, I was afraid it was gonna suck since a lot of bands drop a couple decent albums after a great debut then they just start mass producing shit like its their job, but when it came out it stayed in my CD player in my truck for a couple months probably lol. I didn't really dig untouchables, and everything after was pretty much unlistenable for me
Life is Peachy sounds unfinished, and it's production is total butt. Some good songs on it but I think FTL and Issues are both far better. My teenage self would be mad at me for saying that hah.
Their s/t will always be their best and is on another level.
His drum sound and chops shaped a whole era of music. Underrated.
2:58 - he is spot on about the sound changing with issues. I actually to this day haven't even listened to the entire issues album or any album after that.
Yeah I was never a fan of that album
So, David said that the music they made after he left, wasn't good. But then later it was said, that he hasn't listened to any of the music they've made, since he left......
I was never as good as David on the drums, but I know what it is to finally get there, smooth, fast, precise timing and original beats, and have your body let you down. It happened pretty quickly for me. For about 2 years between 18-20, I could hang with some of the best, but I had bad knees, and after surgery at 21 I never got it back. Some people have more innate physical coordination than others and can bounce back from injuries, but for many of us, we had a lot invested in muscle memory that just got cut away permanently under the knife..
Damn.... irl....sorry .
Cool story bro...lol
@@rhaastaatell us what you know about being a drummer and then suffering an injury and afterwards hopefully bounce back to how good you were before.
You can't because you're a crap talking dousch bag.
If your body is hurting you badly at a young age, there is something wrong with your technique in my opinion. But then again, I don't play metal , but once I refined my technique I can play in my style all day every day for years and not hurt myself. One thing that helped me was practicing really slowly, at that point it's more of a mental than a physical thing
He was right. Issues was the beginning of the end of Korn making good albums. David's drumming was the backbone of their songs.
Disagree with that. If that were the case, Issues, Untouchables, Take a Look in the Mirror and See You on the Other side wouldn't have largely sucked because David was still in the band. Those albums can't live up to the first three because Head was in his own personal hell for three of them, and gone for the fourth. Since Head has been back, some of their stuff is better than those four albums (but not as good as ST, LiP and FtL. Those are (ironically) the Untouchables.
@@SystemsEngin33r head is emo, idc if he never came back
I always thought David had to give up because of a severe wrist injury. Sucks to hear there was animosity between these guys.
He took a small hiatus in the late 90s - early 2000s bc of a bad wrist injury I think
I thought the same thing. At least that was the absolute story back when he took the so-called hiatus..
This video is basically all wrong. So you are correct, it was a wrist injury that started it. Just watch any other video and any other source. This guy is terrible
@@Xeptor83that wrist injury came during the sick and twisted tour in 2000, which he played a hand couple of shows for. got surgery, healed up, recorded untouchables and went on tour from 01-06. in that 5 year period he didn’t have an injury, nor in an interview he did in 2007 did he mention anything about any injury. he took time away to run his restaurants and bars in the huntington beach area. after he wasn’t let back in he started shitting on the band. so no the video isn’t incorrect, you have your timeline mixed up
'Monkey' James Shaffer
never left the band. Brian 'Head' Welch however did and returned in 2013. I can see how to confuse the two but the more comments the merrier, I get it. Keep it up bro. Love these vids.
They’ve never had the same swing and bad-assery after David
He was a vital ingredient of their early sound
Facts
It’s true about Issues; his playing is extremely simplified. Doesn’t even sound like the same drummer from the first two albums.
Korn fans as i am one myself don’t get pissed at this opinion but i really think david silveria was a huge part of the korn sound
I agree with David the vibe changed with Issues and I didn’t like anything from then on. The drummer was one of the best parts of the band!! Those intro are legendary and seeing them in 1998 was an epic experience!
yup, the drumming on issues was super simple and robotic, not his fault
But come on issues was still such a good album. They went to shit after untouchables in my opinion.
while maybe true, a different vibe - I still really liked Untouchables. Even this much later on.
Did ChatGPT write this? David broke his back while exercising. He didn't know it was broken and continued to play. Eventually David suggested that the band take some time off and recharge because they had been touring so much. Communication broke down after that. David ended up having surgery on his back which took him out of commission for a bit. All the while communication had completely stopped between him and the other Korn members.
Wait Munky left KoRn? Wasn't it Head that left?
I wasn't aware of that either.
Head.
David mentioned in a post that Munky left on 3 separate occasions before they convinced him to come back. It just never got out in the press. That's just David's word alone because Munky has never commented on it publicly and they barely acknowledge David at all anyway.
David is my drummer. Korn ain’t been the same since.
One of the best bands live with the new drummer. And I remember them when they headlined the 2nd stage at donnington haha
Which was 1996
Thank you for clearing that up for me. I always wondered why he left....
I was into the thrash/death/grind and anything heavy going. When Korn arrived i loved them, heavy and different, Silverias drumming was a massive part of them. The debut and " Life is Peachy" were amazing but for me hasn't aged well.
Nobody cares what you think. The first album is objectively great. Sorry your taste sucks.
Dave Sylveria is one of my all time fav drummers. As a kid i remember getting a 1997 green lauqer tama star classic drumset and playin all korn tracks on my drums… i still have the drumset and i also have his tama limited edition snare signed by David himself marked David in sharpie marker on the inside of the drum.
Korns drumming back in those times were so influencial and was the height of my progression at 14 years old mimmicking the beats. Thanks David for being a play by ear drummer like myself u cant beat the rythm of raw talent… you are exactly that!
Well said.
As a drummer myself I actually got inspired by Lars Ulrich & Joey Jordison to take up drumming & later other instruments.
And tbh I never got into Korn at first.
Probably due to some edgy kid I went to school with. And I just thought that listening to this band will make me turnout the same way. Lol
Anyways, it wasn't until I picked up guitar & became more open minded about other genres, instruments & music theory, that I'd review Korm's work again & now have found a new appreciation for their unique sound & style.
Korn is what you get when you add 90s hip synth elements, ancient tribal elements in the rhythm section, chugging Djient riffs, & if Sepultura / Soulfly went into a Nu metal direction.
Idk if it's just me, but once I've heard Sepulturas Roots Bloody Roots record, I always associate that album with the very essence of Korn for some reason.
And to me, their song Daddy will always be up there with some of the most disturbing & intense auditory, captivating horror stories, right next to Slipknot's Iowa
It's both incredibly sad & yet so cathartic to listen to Jonathan relive a complete mental breakdown in his mind & is courageous enough to face his demons & turn something negative, into something "positive" by processing these emotions in a healthy way, via artistic endeavors, rather than continuing the vicious cycle of repetitive predatorial behavior.
Great video. Korn was my favorite band in high school. Love those guys!
Glad you covered this one. Thanks
I had a blast back then getting to see Korn at the beginning of their rise. I enjoyed all the concerts and festivals I got to see at…Good times!
Sucks that all of this was going on with the band…
So invested in one’s hubris, that he breaks his back with his own jealousy
He broke his back trying to lift his huge head both literally and metaphorically.
Ray is a beast, I'll pick him any day BUT without David, Korn is missing something that no one can ever replace. The 2002 "Korn: Live", musically speaking, was the peak of the band.
You mean the live at Hammerstein Ballroom? That was indeed fckin epic
@@sinistra7450 Yes
Put Silveria & Davis in a room for an hour & they WILL walk out best friends. Huge Korn fan here, huge fan of up until Paradigm Shift & maybe Serenity of Suffering... my favorite member of Korn is Head but I’m not religious. Ray has been an amazing fill in, he’s a GREAT drummer but it’s lacking the Dave groove from the beginning... nothing but respect to Ray, groups & artists change but I personally haven’t liked anything Korn has put out since 2016. PLEASE do a reunion tour with David! I will go to that! Love you Ray! Sorry, but a tour with all original 5 members would b the SHIT! A tour with some deep cuts off of self titled & Life Is Peachy... OMG!!!! Lupo’s in RI 1997 Korn killed it!!! One of the best shows I have ever been to.
Unlike JD, David hasn't changed at all maturity-wise. I'd be happy to see back David as well but I also think the band doesn't need that negativity he puts off for a while now.
I also hope Fieldy comes back. I feel the same about Ra as lots of others feel about Ray vs David...
He has a feel Ray doesn't have, IMO. It's just like Mangini vs. Portnoy. Sure, Ray is the virtuoso drummer, but Fieldy + David just sounds more like KoRn than say, Martinie + Luzier.
It's sad that the producer of Issues restricted his style to get a more commercial and easy listening sound. The drums have become boring because of that
He's right about the first 3 albums ...well first two imo.
David has more muscle in his face than i do in both my legs.
I've been with the band sense they started. I got to see them on their first tour. Even limp bizkit was a opening band. David was awesome! Hearing this I'm not sure which way to believe. So I'll just stick to the memories of the past seeing them live.
Ray is a beast behind the kit. Hes killing it with korn. Im a drummer too.😮
What's great about Ray is that he's versatile. Any drummer that can handle Terry Bozzio's 2007 untitled parts deserves a medal.
I thought I would get into it until I sit behind one for couple hours but to be honest its not a gig for lazy folks , truly ant . pick some though nothing brag about said for 30 years try avoid any conflict with drummers, most can put knots all over ya head fast, hate admit it but lost both times to drummers and they was smallest dudes ever fought in my life one put me out first punch . he got all my pride , gift wrapped it handed it to him . sure didn't see it coming , I didn't , not sure why but when I used drink I got punched often. sure couldn't dodge one at all, not UFC material
The only album I like with ray is the paradigm shift the rest blow and rays drumming on the paradigm shift is barely noticeable it's mostly head that makes that album and the subtle electronics
Ray was a nobody played for lame satire bands like Davis Lee Roth and Steel panther
Rays just a gimmick and has no real individual style
My favorite albums are the ones with David on them
I found out some details over the years but the story was muddled until I saw this video. Thanks.
His drumming on the track freak on a leash is just unmatched. His talent , grove and showmanship made that song ! Never heard a chorus like it ! 🤘
I remember seeing them opening for Sick Of It All, I didn't know the band or their songs back then (1994?) but man, THOSE DRUMS! Nobody was playing like that at the time. I agree with him that after "Follow The Leader" things were never the same but I wouldn't call their music "shit", they always were good songwriters but the magic was gone.
I dont understand his comments about Issues tho, it still had good drumming, and the following 2 records still sounded like Korn even if the drumming wasnt as free flowing as the earlier albums.
@@Henry14arsenal2007 well, that's the beginning of the overproduction in rock and especially in metal, that's probably why he's not as groovy as on previous albums.
@@Henry14arsenal2007 yeah, it is the beginning of the transition, and I fucking love Untouchable.. but After untouchable it really picks up speed downhill. And now its like years after a straight drop.. JD is more interested in electronic music. Like a more soy version of Al Jourgenson or something.
@@nwerd7584 TALITM was a great album too, for me the downfall started from SYOTOS and when the og guys started leaving
@@Henry14arsenal2007 I would say its passable, not like now where I wont even download the album.
I first heard Korn by getting a free concert ticket with the purchase of "Life is Peachy" cd. Popped it in and was like holy shiznit! These guys are incredible, especially the Drummer David Silveria when at the time I was really into Pantera and Sepultura. Ever since then I have had Korn in my top 5 bands of all time, despite the changes and thru the years of music. I can admit that their albums with David were their best. They definitely had a groove that can't be replicated. Ray is great but there's just something special about David when he was in Korn IMHO.
David is the dog. Point done. Ilike all korn albums, but fkc David is the best thing for korn. ❤❤❤❤❤
I partied with this dude at the shark club in Costa Mesa years ago. Kind of quiet and soft spoken. Very nice, respectful dude. Too bad things didn’t work out.
2:40 - "I will never never play with him again"
I'm no expert on double-negatives, but doesn't that mean he will play with him again?
Huge korn fan since the first album ,seen them four times up in till Dave left, as a musician, you can hear the distinct drumming that made korn such a great band, when bands lose an original member the sound always changes.
And yeah, Jonathan Davis and field he even had have I become whiny Christian losers ,🤮
Silveria was the backbone, groovy feel that made Korn different. All that original sound got lost after his departure and it shows and keeps showing...
He is right about the first three albums being solid classics.. David's drum style influenced my drumming Style, regardless of korns politics with him..
Everybody should know that the reverse R was done because Jonathan was trying to write like a little kid would write the word corn. It wasn’t because they worked at Toys “R” Us all the interviews I’ve ever watched that was the story and how they got their name is even funnier it was more of an inside joke between them.
it still kinda is though, thats why kids r us is even titled that, same thing.. it was a mashup of old store mottos and how children were over emphasized to write like that which would even give you the idea in the first place. Besides.. like I said its basically a meme now, and arguably was even then because that's not how kids stereotypically write. Thats like a kin to the "serial killer" notes that had letters cut out of different magazines then Hollywood overused it for decades.. The backwards letter stuff is like little rascals old. like 1920s shit.
It's "korn", not the word "corn". "Korn" means "kiddie porn".
Great vid, guy. You should do a vid on Chris Adler's exit from LOG. The full facts about Chris' exit from LOG are still hazy
I saw Korn on their first US tour in support of their first album in 1995. Blind was brand new on the radio. They were opening for KMFDM in a smaller theater in Denver, CO. Another opener was God Lives Underwater. Great concert - not to mention my first concert; I was 15. It was a blast to be that age during the 90s and live that era in music.
I saw them about the same time, but they opened for Ozzy on New Years Eve 1995 at McNicols Arena.
Que vuelva Silveria a Korn, aunque sea para algunos show 💪💪💪
No one ever thought it would be possible for Axl and Slash to be on stage together again. That was almost 20 years of some of the most awful things being written and said about each other. Hopefully one day soon the original 5 guys will realize what they were able to create and take the stage once more as one solid unit. At this point, that is the only thing that will make Korn relevant again. It takes the input of all 5 of them to make a true Korn record.
One of the best drummers
Man that snare for those first two albums made the band. His playing was great but it sounds like they'll never get back again
Korn is in their second golden era right now. Their last three records have been solid AF. That being said, I miss David’s drumming and style. Don’t get me wrong, Ray Luzier is a monster but so was David. Either way, I hope they become friends again
Last album is one of my favorite and I've been listen to them since 1994.
@@stevemuzak8526 I agree, their last two for me have been really great. Definitely some of my favorite of their records. I’ve also been a fan since the 90s
Last good album was issues. The Nothing was alright. But not a golden era… not even close
@@DSKTBH Respect your opinion but I respectfully disagree. The Nothing and Requiem were good records
@@raulfigueroa588 the charts and views don’t disagree. But all respects
03:50 ummm. Munky never left Korm… you mean Head?
Was lucky enough to attend family values tour 2006. David and the rest of the band were awesome!!! Deftones too!! Unforgettable
He was my favorite band member of Korn.
man i miss David in korn , the new drummer is just like a typical metal drummer. David got his groove and its unique , its sad to see
One of my favorite drummers. Very creative approaches and an all around solid drummer
They parted ways because David is much younger and was still partying. They all had kids and got straight. They're big addicts so any thing will trigger a relapse in them. Hence why fieldy is not in the picture right now.
Not really. Apart from JD, Silveria was probably the "helthier".
I’ve always tried to replicate the sound of his kit in life is peachy. Thats what a kit should sound like imo
Untouchables for me is their best album with Silveria on it.
Not long before David left for good, he was forced to take a break and was replaced on tour temporarily by FAITH NO MORE’s drummer Mike Bordin due to a debilitating wrist injury. Jonathon Davis said to him during the filming of a DVD extra that he told Silveria previously that those heavy 5B drumsticks would cause him problems. His drumming was never the same again.
Edit : I loved his power grooves.
Ummm that happened during Issues tour, like 6 whole years before he left for good
@@bringbackthebifffootyfight4251 Ummmmm …. as I clearly stated : “His drumming was never the same again.” In combination, David had also been suffering from uncomfortable back issues for some years, evidenced by his eventual transition to a drum stool incorporating lower back support.
Edit : I have no idea what problem you have with this particular scenario contributing to his professional decline, but one immutable fact remains : wrist discomfort is majorly detrimental to a drummer’s prowess and years of repetitive strain can only succeed in exacerbating an underlying, pre-existing condition (concerning a limb joint fundamentally necessary for drumming’s physical applications) to the point of intolerability or unworkable impairment.
I used to be really into Korn when the first two albums came out and I think they still stand up pretty well today (the first album more so, the second has some great songs, but it’s also quite patchy). I began to lose interest when ‘Follow the Leader’ came out. You could tell even then they were making concessions to be more mainstream and I began to lose interest. Honestly, I remember watching the debut of the ‘Got the Life’ video and thinking it’s was quite embarrassing…though it was also hugely successful.
You could also look at it this way: They began to lose it when they stopped wearing Adidas and started wearing Puma.
Yeah, there's a lot of bands that come out with a great debut and then steadily go downwards after that and Korn is definitely one of those bands. I remember making a conscious decision to stop wearing Korn shirts around the fourth album.
Its a business though. Not cater to edgy fans needs that eventually won't be profitable as time goes on. Sadly the music majority love that changes lives doesnt turn profits and thats the name of the game if a bands gonna survive sadly.
I don’t have an issue with bands growing and developing, in fact the best bands do exactly this.
But with Korn and Follow the Leader you don’t get growth and development, you gets utter shite, like ‘All in the Family’
That said…the album had ‘Justin’ which is one of my favourite Korn songs. In fact, the last few songs on the album are the more interesting and experimental ones.
I got into them about 6 months before Life is Peachy, would get made fun of wearing Korn shirts. Kids would ask me if I listened to Cabbage too, kind of shit. Then two years later when FTL came out, all those same kids were saying how great Korn is and they'd always be fans.
I stopped wearing anything Korn related soon after FTL.
I started to listen to them when Life is Peachy came out but for me Follow the Leader is their best record. Besides two songs it’s a perfect album for me.
Ray Luzier is very fucken talented on the drums. Watch his UA-cam vid of him playing solo for a crowd at a guitar shop. Munky in person is a kind cool guy. David got THAT right.
Silveria is the man
I don't like them much without David he really had his own style that mixed with the noise scratch guitars.
Unique and underrated. Hugely influential back in the 90's.
Bands evolve if they want to survive with an ever evolving music scene. During that evolving process, sometimes band members grow distant or evolve in a different direction. It doesn't necessarily mean they don't like each other...only that each sees music as whole differently than others.
I saw Korn in 1994 about 6 months before they singed a record deal at Dream Street in Ocean Beach CA. I was in a thrash band and and my singer turned me onto Korn. My Singer became good friends with the band getting on their buss and backstage any time they played in the area.
I said the same thing about their albums. The first 4 are amazing and after that I have rarely found a song I like. Nothin will compare to their self titled album, and the other 3 come close but after that it’s a wash 🤷🏻♀️❤️
Not popular opinion but I would agree 👍
Munky never left the band, that was Head.
social media makes so much damn animosity
Thanks for not stretching this out to a 20 minute video.
I guess I’ll just have my fingers crossed for a Canned Heat video forever
He's not wrong about their sound imo, Issues is definitely where they started turning into a parody of themselves. I think they've actually done a bit of good stuff since, but certainly the first 3 albums are why they are the band they are today.
What's wrong with Issues?
David was a phenom. Unique sound 👌
2:53 amen to that...
Luzier runs laps around Silveria.
And Silveria runs marathons above Luzier writing drum patterns in huge records. First Korn album was time changer in metal. Luzier its a nice sessionist.😊
Ray is playing davids sloppy seconds. Silveria got platinum plaques. Where’s Rays!? 🤷
Next Episode:
"Why did Dirk Lance
(Alex Katunich -
Original Bass Player)
leave Incubus?" 🤔
When Issues came out I thought that would be their end, and if I remember right the next album took a lot longer to drop, and since then their sound has sampled a lot of NU sounds, but lyrics was still Korn. I grew to love them even more. anticipating what sounds they may sample on their next album.
Well, David made a huge work with band and he deserves respect for this. But I think much more important is to maintain good relations between band family members. This is chemistry. And this chemistry brings us all the Korn music!
I will ALWAYS love Korn! But, they are not the same without David. Ray just doesn't do it for me.
I agree 💯. But the vibe at there shows are still fire. Rays stick twirling pissed me off honestly but he is a good drummer just not the same as David. Seen all of the different lineups thru the years. I will take any form of Jonathan davis band
@@devinreed2003so is Jay, Slipknot and Korn are never the same without their original members
I grew up with David on drums but Ray is such an asset to Korn.
Eh
When he initially went on hiatus, I read in some cheap magazine that the reason for his back pain turned out to be that he had an extra rib that they had to remove. I wonder if anyone else remembers it like that.
They started a whole new subgenre of heavy music.
Well, at least If Danny Devito becomes too old to continue playing Frank Reynolds on It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia, David Silveria will be able to seamlessly pivot into the role.
I was a huge fan when issues dropped but other than make me bad I wasn’t really feeling the record. I like it more now but there are some strange mixing choices going on
