Yep, Korn did it again. With every album they change their sound and yet you always now it's Korn. It's their most experimental album since "Follow The Leader". And it's purely exhilarating.
There was a mojor loss within the band as guitarist Brian "Head" Welch decided to leave the band due to personal reasons. Remaining members said that breaking up was never an option and that they tried to turn this loss into an oportunity. An oportunity to "reinvent" their sound. And they did... they really did.
They all stepped up as musicians. Especially Munky who is now the only guitarist in Korn. He produced some wonderful riffs (very popular first single "Twisted Transistor", "Liar", "Coming Undone", "For No One"). David presents his skills most clearly on "10 Or A 2-Way" and on "SYOTOS" you can hear Fiedly's spectacular bass playing again. If it comes to Jonathan, his vocals have greatly improved over the years. The band produced a lot of catchy songs that just won't get out of your head. The album is heavy and at the same time very melodic. Some of the songs have a very epic feel in them. And I can guarantee that you'll be stunned when you hear "Tearjerker".
The more I listen to this album the more I adore it. My personal favourites are:
"Liar", "Love Song", "Tearjerker", "Coming Undone", "Souvenir", "Open Up" and "Throw Me Away".

The limited edition comes with a second CD - it has three really good bonus songs, two remixes of "Twisted Transistor" (one being extremely great) and two live videos. And the package is the best I've ever seen (with a pop-up artwork!).

After nearly eight years of albums that collected comments such as "good", "OK", or "I like KoRn so I like this" KoRn come charging out with an album that shows how they crated an genre of music in the first place
Sounding like nothing they've done before, I would call this a "Must Have" to anyone who even slightly likes KoRn and a big "Try it" to people who like freaky dark music. If you like something happy sounding...erm...there's always the Darkness.
I cannot fault this album.

Yes, yes, yes! It's about time too! Everyone has had the guilty pleasure of liking a Korn song and rightfully so, Korn have had a fantastic history. But recent releases haven't done the lads any favours. Issues, Untouchables and their average greatest hits collection haven't presented us with anything as engaging and fantastically experimental as their first 3 releases but See You On The Other Side really does show a return to form.
Since the departure of 'Head' a lot of us were wondering what the band were going to sound like from then on. Would we see a new guitarist? Well the answer is no. All the guitars on this album are written completely by Munky. That way Korn are still, in essence, the same band and it really shows. But Munky hasen't fobbed us off with anything below average, the guitar work on this album is astounding. The riffs are truly experimental and you'll never hear anything like this on any other Korn album.
Stand out tracks include the modern-classic and instant dancefloor hit; Twisted Transistor with it's thumping drums, grinding riffs and ridiculously catchy lyrics. Politics and Hypocrites just go to show that even if Jonathan Davis doesn't have anything to moan about, he can still do it with style and present a thoughtful (but harsh) approach to the issues of politics in general and the departure of Head. The new single, Coming Undone just shows how Korn can bring back the original edge they had as a new band but present it in a new and exciting way.
Be warned though, this album may not be to everyones' taste, not even past Korn fans. The songs I've mentioned are bound to get you dancing but the album is still vastly experimental and does turn very ambient and industrial in various places. Fans of Rammstein, The Prodigy and Mortiis will definately love this new material but for us Korn fans, it is a bit of a step forward.
But this is not necessarily a bad thing! Take a chance and get this album, you won't regret it. And with an extra disc of unreleased studio material, remixes and live video clips, you're money isn't being invested on 1 audio disc with 14 tracks on it. This is a fantastic package for any Korn fan. Buy now!

Don't buy on the strength of Twisted Transistor!
I really have to say, I have given this album several chances, the latest being this week. And I am sorry, but it really just is NOT good. Read more

Not KoRn, but good nonetheless
If your buying this album because it's by KoRn, then don't bother. Despite what Jonathan Davis says, this album is deffinantly NOT KoRn. Read more

4 stars... I reviewed my initial review :)
Thought it was only fair to post a review stating that my first review was wrong (one star). I first stated that this album was soft and nothing like their other albums. Read more
