5.0 out of 5 stars
.......and then there were three..... a strong 4 1/2 star album,
By themusicfiend (Florida) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Korn (Audio CD)
If 'See You On The Other Side' was the bridge to get there then 'Untitled' is the other side. Most of the album is filled with artsy experimental music that is truly evolutionary as far as Korn goes. With Head devoting his life to God and David on hiatus all that is left of Korn are Jonathan,Munky,Fieldy. Ofcourse once again the boys from Bakersfield surround themselves with many talented individuals. From the production team of The Matrix to producer Atticus Ross to session drummer Terry Bozzio. Most of the tracks were created all together in the studio with ideas flowing like a geiser. Most of the album comes off noisy but yet clean. But gone is the Korn your grandpa used to listen to. It is less heavier than 'SYOTOS' but flows much better. The continuity is there with tremndous confidence and from track to track it is easy to tell that this is the new Korn for all. Some may like it and some won't. If you are wanting to hear the 'S/T' or 'Life's Peachy' or even 'Take A Look In The Mirror' then go and listen to those albums. But if you enjoyed 'SYOTOS' as much as I did then give this album a try. For it is better than its predecessor......and as far as this Deluxe Limited Edition goes you get a 47 minute DVD documenting the band in the studio and photo slideshow which is cool. Fantastic artwork throughout the package. A bonus track called 'Sing Sorrow' which is a very strong track. Three postcards of each member drawn which is also very cool. A two sided poster of the album art that comes with creases(that sucks) and a coupon to redeem a free t-shirt from the band. Very very cool...and it all comes in a nice hard box. Korn really did a great job with this package. Big props go out to them.....for me the only down side is the unablilty to read the small wavy print in the sleeve.....very difficult to read.

Think Pink Floyd does Heavy Metal,
By Nexius (Arizona, United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Korn (Audio CD)
I found this album to be very similar to SYOTOS first time around. It does have the 'artsy' sound to it and my first reaction was 'Pink Floyd does Heavy Metal'. Very trippy cd with a mix of melody and goth intertwined in each song. Favorite song on the album after first couple of go rounds has got to be 'Killing'. Very militant and heavy 'old-school' KoRn feel to it and great to jam along with. This album isn't for everyone, and if you didn't really like Issues or SYOTOS, you might not like this one. Every album has a message, and the message delivered in this album is very clear, KoRn hates God and fixed religion. But overall, I give this album a 4 out of 5, just because it had to grow on me after about 4 listens and it just didn't 'grab' me first time around.

A step up from SYOTOS.,

This review is from: Korn (Audio CD)
I've never been disappointed with any album Korn has put out. "Untitled" being no exception. Usually I have to warm up to a cd before I start to like it, but once I listened to this cd whole way through, I fell in love.
I instantly fell in love with about 7 or 8 songs after the first listen. "Hold On", "Killing", "Starting Over", "Ever Be", "Sing Sorrow", are all awesome songs IMO. Korn's sound has evolved, just like with every new album, and this album was executed very well. The drumming style is different because David Silveria, the original drummer, is taking a break from the band. So they hired Terry Bozzio and Brooks Wackerman (from Bad Religion) to fill in. While they both did a brilliant job, I am looking forward to David's return!! This is only my opinion, but this is the best album Korn has put out since Issues. Untouchables was a great album, but lacked the emotion that Issues had. Again, just my opinion. The DVD is really cool too. It shows the making of every song on "Untitled". For me, it helped me appreciate every song that much more. Especially "Ever Be". If you pick up this album, definetly get the Deluxe Edition!
