    Although Korn is great, too, I have been in love with Linkin Park since their first album. They are phenomenal.

      Koяn. I used to listen to this type of music in the late 2000s and I remember that Korn lasted longer in my playlist. I think that both groups have always been at the edge of what I like.

        I think korn maintained the same sound whereas linkin park evolved over time for better or for worse

          When the group changes their style, there’s no guarantee that the fans will follow. In my case, the problem is that both groups became boring to me, Korn later.

            I guess it’s hard , if they stay the same they get told they are boring, but if they move to something new and the fans hate it they lose the fans , hard to stay successful throughout

              Yes, clearly fantastic and creative groups. We are allowed to change our taste just like they can change their music.

    Korn for driving with east coast city skylines in the backdrop, but Linkin Park for driving on PCH or going across the bridge into Coronado. Mike

        first time I heard Hybrid Theory was going to lunch at the Coronado Hotel – never forgot how nice it was that day, the view of the Pacific Ocean and all the yachts in the harbor while I was driving above 🙂

        I was listening to Cure For The Itch at that moment and Papercut driving up to Santa Barbara! I guess it’s by association and memories hehe.

    The DJ at my (recently defunct) regular karaoke night and I used to do In The End every week, with me singing Mike’s part and him singing Chester’s part. I love that song.

    Had to opportunity to see them together in concert (along with Snoop Dogg!) many years back. Korn especially was a favorite when I was a teenager.

    Thank you, music was the only thing that kept me going. I used to listen to run and Ludens by Bring Me the Horizon on repeat planning an escape. It finally happened, but he broke my ribs that morning.
