Korn : Thoughtless
...five grown men masturbating over self-deprecation and angst...
Come on then own up. Exactly which 100,000 of you sick puppies have already bought the album? Well, I hope you’re proud because that misguided decision has given rise to yet another single from Californian veteran hardcore rockers, Korn. Check out the size of that riffage. Cop a load of how much pain that guy’s really feeling right now. "Why are you trying to make fun of me? You take your time lashing out at me… My pain cannot be bound" mopes 31-year-old vocalist Jonathan Davis. Ouch, that’s gotta hurt. ‘Thoughtless’ is the sound of hell, or rather the sound of adolescents masturbating over self-deprecation and angst. In hell. Except of course, its five grown men masturbating over self-deprecation and angst. Losers.
