DescriptionWhat happens when five kids from the West Coast country music capital of Bakersfield, California, join forces, detune their guitars, and play with total abandon? Heavy Metal gets reinvented (again). As one of the first metal bands from the post-hip-hop generation, Korn’s fresh approach, total musicianship, and category-defying music had rock critics scrambling for a new phrase to describe them. They called it “Nu Metal.” Lead singer/screamer/human beatbox Jonathan Davis wore this green-spangled Adidas tracksuit on stage with the Bakersfield beasts.
