Are you surprised or something? Come on, it's Korn. Don't ask too much!

Given that you have read my past opinions on Korn, how can you possibly be surprised? Come, now...let's not be childish. And how, exactly, does that not make sense? Do explain, I'm so curious how you reached this conclusion!
If anything someone has said is dumb, rest assured it's not coming from me....
So that leaves...
Well, since apparently you're the authority on what's intelligent or not, I will let you figure that out. It should be well within your capabilities.
Edited to add: If you're going to quote me, at least do so with the button provided by this fine website...it hurts me to see proper punctuation slaughtered so thoroughly.

It might be so that many bands are influenced by Korn, that doesnt mean they korn changed the heavymetal/alternative metal/ post grunge/rap metal genre that Korn are under. Cause bands like Deftones have been at this genre longer than Korn and So Has Nine Inch nails; Rob Zombie and Marilyn Manson. All of these bands must be regarded as similare artist within the alternative metal and heavy metal as Korn but neither of those change the genres. That a lot of band takes after Korn is that popilare bands get a lot of copycat acts, this isnt the same as changing a genre.
Just take a look at those band who has influenced Korn, the likes of Faith No More , RHCP. How many bands havent tried to take after those two. And those two again where influenced by Anthrax who more or less strated the rap metal scene with their 1987 "I`m the man" song
Now Korn had a lot of success early on and it is natural that other band uses that as a base for their own stuff, it has always been like that and will always be.
What we can say about Korn is they were, among some other bands, the first to draw in Hip Hop beats into their style of music. Korn wasnt the first but they were the most known/famous of them.
Buth I must give Korn credit for keeping the good old Heavy Metal scene alive though in a time when pure heavy metal almost suffocated in the wake of the grunge wave that swept across the globe

your quite a strange little person arent you. but i guess your right, i shouldnt be surprised, but i think you should really try to stop being so up your *********** all the time. i mean cmon! its the goddam net who gives a *************'about punctuation?
anyway, i dont think we're gonna resolve this matter any time soon, so why dont we just spare the pointless arguing and agree to disagree?
This really wasn't an issue until you took offense to my opinion. Even if we do disagree, don't think that I'm going to stop voicing my dislike of certain bands. Further, feel free to destroy the rules of English all you like in your own text, but please refrain from doing so when you quote me.
Well, you can if you want, I don't really care. I just like being a snot sometimes.
(Oh, and it's genre.)

agrees. in all..im just pleased to see korn make an album that i can say it was better then the last...because with every new album korn seems to lose a touch of there music..but after all im a big fan.

Okay okay! I fold! I can identify with your last part anyway. I don't think I'm going to post here any more either, I guess I take offense too easily when it comes to music.
(see how my spelling and grammar were perfect there???)
Thing is with me, I have been a hard rock /heavy metal fan since I could walk. (influenced by my older siblings records. My brother was into Deep Purple, Black Sabbath, Led Zeppelin, The Who and my sister was into Uriah Heep beside the disco that was coming on at that time she was also very much into the alternative music in the mid 70`s.. Camel, Lake, and so on) I "inherited my brothers passion for Led Zeppelin Deep Purple and the bands that came out of Purple( Rainbow, Whitesnake, Ian Gillan Band, Tommy Bolin, Glenn Hughes) In my early teens Iron Maiden and Judas Priest was hitting it big so I jumped on that wave as well.
I am at an age where new heavy bands doesnt really do it for me at all. I had my heavy time and I cherish those band I loved as a teen very much, no new band can take their place so I tend to listen to the new stuff, buy what I like but again they will never be a passion as it is with the "good old stuff"
Just wanted to say a bit form where I am coming from and what my views are, if I say a band might be overrated it aint to bash those who enjoy it, it is my personal opinion on the matter and in my mind nothing can top the trio of Zeppelin, Purple and Sabbath.
But who am I to complain, I do understand that the "prime" dudes today love the stuff that comes out and deservedly so I really hope youall enjoy your stuff as I enjoyed mine and still do
