Take a look in the mirror every song on that album is awesome
There is 100 plus songs thatt are All at the top of all my play list 12 albums over 20 plus years can’t compare them to anyone in a classs by them self ,,,, HOF. Definitely

Posted by Joseph on Saturday, 02/17/2018 @ 09:18am

Although Korn will be eligible next year, I don’t think they’ll get nominated and inducted right off the bat - just eventually. Once Linkin Park gets in the next eight years or so from now, these guys will be the second “nu-metal” band to join, since the HOF normally picks up the most universal name from a certain music background first, then the others later similar to how Nirvana and Pearl Jam were inducted.

Korn’s Issues will turn in twenty in November.

Posted by The Dude on Tuesday, 01/1/2019 @ 23:34pm

Korn’s former drummer is willing to rejoin the band for only one live performance if they get inducted into the Rock Hall at some point. To be honest, they’re the only newly eligible act I could think of that won’t have any problems with the requirements of band membership unlike Weezer and maybe Oasis.

Their induction would be quite hypothetical at this point in time, IMO.

If I was that drummer, I wouldn't be holding my breath...

“Korn made a California connection with N.W.A. alum Ice Cube for 1998’s Children Of The Korn.”

This post is for K-Dawg, Ben, Follower, and Will.N.

While I don’t see Korn getting nominated and inducted at first year. But since they’re finally eligible, I wanna tell ya something that Sean forgot to mention about the “old vs. new” definition of metal we talked about months ago. My theory on the term “nu-metal” is mostly a marketing term based on the original and fake version of the definition that was coined by the older generations who work - or at least use to - in the music industry and journalism (hence the stylized phrase).

It was made to refer to certain bands who were heavy and new back then after the heydays of grunge ended with a legacy. Sure most of them aren’t really metal at all, but the interesting thing about the them is the bands are and/or were more familiar with the current and real definition.

Linkin Park, Deftones, and Limp Bizkit are mostly influenced by heavy non-metal bands with metal influences like Faith No More, Nine Inch Nails, Jane's Addiction, Helmet (whose founding member once collaborated with LP and is friends with them) and even hardcore punk other than rap/hip-hop; Korn is a heavy funk rock band with some elements of doom (Black Sabbath, Trouble) and a little bit of groove metal (Pantera, Exhorder, the Post-80's Sepultura); System of a Down was mostly quirky as bands like Primus, Mr. Bungle, the Dead Kennedys, and Frank Zappa and the Mothers of Invention but showed a significant amount of thrash influences with an Armenian rhythm; Staind was influenced by the metal based grunge bands; Static-X was influenced by the metal based industrial bands; Godsmack always show their love of 70’s and 80’s bands who are and/or were related to the old and current definitions; and Slipknot, Mudvayne and even Disturbed to a lesser extent are the only few I could think of from the scene that have enough basic elements to be consider as metal while still having the balance of being unique musically and appeal to the masses at the same time.

"Korn collects its 14th Billboard 200 top 10 album, as The Nothing debuts at No. 8 with 33,000 equivalent album units earned (of which 29,000 were in album sales). Korn ties Van Halen for the fifth-most top 10s on the chart among rock bands; ahead of them: The Rolling Stones, with 37, The Beatles (32), Dave Matthews Band (16) and Santana (16)."

This band has been the Savior and grace for many of our souls for many years! They saved me and my daughter! Give them props!

First of all it's 2020 and I can't believe Korn is still waiting to be in the hall of fame. Korn has revolutionized the interaction between the band and the fans. And they were the first band to combine rock groups and rap groups in the same song. They changed Rick forever. They set many new trends. They didn't get a whole lot of radio airplay however until their 3rd album. I have listened to Korn since I was 14. I'm now 36 and still listen to them.

Posted by Derek on Wednesday, 01/15/2020 @ 20:34pm

Ok so I have read alot of comments mostly good but there are a few people who don't like them. 95% of the comments go like this "they started nu_metal and influenced many other bands" and that is fact but (lifelong) as a fan I don't care about what they did or who they inspired ,the fact is they are a "for the fans" band and have never quit and a lot people on here say well there earlier work was best, that's bs they've put out some really good music last few years, Never Never was korns only #1 billboard hit which I believe is off there 7th album (not for sure) either way there rock and roll legends in my eyes, for people to get on here and say anything negative is just ignorant. They are a band for the love of music and #1 there fans. Fellow Korn fans you are all my friends in the 1 thing that unites us without knowing or seeing who you are and that is korn. Love you guys and that's what makes people hate us cause of our loyalty and sheer bond for the band, music and legacy korn stands for.

Korn's connection to Irving Azoff.

"Jeff Kwatinetz is at it again, and this time he's dancing with Irving Azoff. Sources inside both companies confirm that talks are ongoing to join their music management companies under one roof."

"Plans are for Azoff to head the company, overseeing a combined roster that includes Linkin Park, Korn, Dixie Chicks, Enrique Iglesias, Audioslave, Limp Bizkit, Snoop Dog, Christina Aguilera, Jewel, Van Halen and the Eagles, among others."

HELL YEAH! They should be in no question!

Posted by Trent on Friday, 07/23/2021 @ 15:32pm

HELL YEAH! KORN should be in the Hall next year! They changed rock and metal!

Posted by Jonathan on Monday, 08/2/2021 @ 22:58pm

Main stream needs to not ignore the impact that Korn has had on the music industry. It is simply ridiculous they have not been up for vote, and many others without as much influence have.

Posted by Mario Parish on Friday, 03/18/2022 @ 08:28am

YES YES & YES, THEY SHOULD BE IN THE HALL OF FAME. I'm not a fan of the Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame they let music in that's not even Rock music. You're letting music like that in and KORN is not in yet that is BS. Rock Legends

Posted by Mark on Friday, 04/8/2022 @ 09:36am

Should 100% be inducted. If the RRHOF would like, I can give them about 150 far less influential bands / artists to kick out in order to make room. Has nothing to do with whether or not you personally like their music. Which is something the RRHOF has historically had an exceedingly difficult time moving past, even though the current roster of HOF'ers (wildly) spans into genres that are anything but "Rock n Roll." The list of bands, all time, who have sold more for as long a time as Korn, is small. Of those, the list of bands who influenced an entire era and forged an entire genre, is even smaller. Korn is the kind of band the RRHOF is supposed to honor.

Posted by MC on Wednesday, 05/4/2022 @ 16:04pm

I can legit see them getting inducted this decade. Like it or not, they had a Black Sabbath like impact on metal and rock. Not only that, but unlike most of their nu metal peers who have lost relevance (like Limp Bizkit and POD), they have survived and are still rocking to this day.

Posted by Henry on Wednesday, 05/4/2022 @ 16:58pm

Yeah! They definitely deserve induction. Without Korn there would be no Slipknot, no Linkin Park, no Deftones, no System Of A Down, no Disturbed, no Nu Metal. Love or hate nu metal, it's an important part of rock and metal history, and Korn was the band that invented the style.

Posted by Matt on Thursday, 05/5/2022 @ 14:43pm

They have been my favorite band since I was 13. I think Korn deserves the hall of fame, for their influence and their unique style of music. They write great lyrics and always put on an amazing show. They kicked off an entire music genre and are still big to this day.

Posted by Kyle on Friday, 05/6/2022 @ 15:19pm

This band deserves to be in the Hall. They have a unique sound and carved out their own niche in the music world. I feel like they don't get the credit they deserve. Every time people talk about Nu Metal, everyone always brings up Slipknot, SOAD and Linkin Park... but who taught those bands the formula? KORN did.

Posted by Derek on Saturday, 05/7/2022 @ 14:47pm

They should be in, they have a unique sound, they pioneered a genre, and they have longevity most bands of their generation dream of. They are still getting top 10 albums and selling out concerts. Bands like slipknot, limp bizkit and linkin park would not be here if it wasn't for korn.

Posted by Kian on Tuesday, 05/10/2022 @ 15:37pm

How can you not induct Korn into the hall? Let's look at some of the bands or artists that are already in. Korn's impact on music in general should get them in. There would be no Limp Bizkit, Slipknot or any number of nu-metal bands if not for Korn. If they don't get in it will simply be because people are Blind to what it means to be in the hall.

Posted by ConfinedChaos on Wednesday, 02/1/2023 @ 12:52pm

I think they should get inducted for the for their first 5 albums alone. They are not the same without their drummer David Silveria, but still a genre-defining group none the less. They deserve it more than Linkin Park. Korn started a genre influenced a lot of others. They are the chilli peppers of metal.

Posted by Walty on Tuesday, 06/27/2023 @ 22:25pm

They need to be in the rock and roll hall of fame for their impact and influence. They invented their own subgenre of metal and still release albums and sell out shows globally
