Iron Maiden
apperance - Wear what suits them (e.g. Leather Jackets, T-Shirts, Jeans normal everyday clothes)
music - classic rock
song structure - Usually begin with mellow guitar solos with lead vocalist Bruce Dickinson gradually blending in , then all hell brakes loose with ripping guitair solos and drum beats with Bruce really given it all he's got, his voice is so distinct.
style- Unique lead vocals, ripping guitar solos and killer bass constanlty playing, distinctive drums, mixed with good old fashioned slower ballads typical to true rock legends.
Lyrics - Anything from politics, history, home issues a basically all round feel to their music.
no. of albums - 22 and still going strong
So KoRn really aren't that unique when compared to other rock orientated bands like maiden.
For god's sake you could go on for days comparing bands like this
Linkin Park is good, so is Korn, so is Led Zeppelin, so is Maiden
I'm not that picky when it comes to music as long as it's rock and not pop, rap, etc
