Sound Like Korn | Without Busting The Bank

[@greatpix]

I have a Korn related story you might find interesting. Around 23 years ago I was having breakfast at the Sugar Shack in Huntington Beach and this guy sitting at the table next to me had this really cool looking tattoo of what looked like a psychedelic Cheshire Cat on his upper arm. I'd seen him around that area a lot and noticed it before. I had my camera with me so as he and his friends got up to leave I asked him if I could get a picture of his tattoo. He said sure and i took a couple of shots and thanked him. The group walked away and I sat back down at my table. A few seconds later my waiter comes over and says "Do you know who that was?". I shook my head and he said, "That's Dave, the drummer from Korn!" (I'm so dumb)

[@schprox]

That's a *face plan full of regret* moment

[@xOGMETALHEAD206x]

I'll share a korn story. I was born in 96, but my co worker is the same age as the korn guys. He went to a korn show in the mid 90's when everybody was still on drugs. He and his friends were backstage and they found a cooler full of beer, and some other drugs. So naturally they helped themselves. Munky came out later and yelled at them and had security throw them out. They drank the bands beer supply for the night and smoked a bunch of their stuff.

[@Beegpapijimbo]

Korn is one of those bands that I think for some guitarists their music doesn't click until you try playing some of their music. Covering Korn songs is just a riot of a good time.

[@1958gibsonxplorer1]

I love their music, however, I can see how some would be quite deterred… Their sound is incredibly unique as well as style. I’ll say this, if you are a fan of any type of new metal, hard rock, whatever… There is NO WAY you don’t head bang with a furled lip covering one of these songs.

[@scottnorton5670]

I can agree with this. My coverband does quite a few songs from them and each song is a groove unto is own.

[@sneeringimperialist340]

Just FYI, Korn don't tune to Drop A, they tune the entire guitar down a whole step to A standard.

Korn is why I started playing Ibanez 20 years ago and honestly, I love them to this day. They make great stuff, especially for the money.

[@pistonhedd]

Me too, KoRn and Slipknot - well when Mick used Ibanez.

[@angryktulhu]

Dude guitar manufacturer is the last thing that matters. Literally anything will work. Pickups matter more. Amp and head even more

[@rmp5s]

@@angryktulhu You couldn't be much more wrong, my friend. Speaking solely of sound, maybe, but there is a LOT more to a guitar than sound. The body shape and finish, the weight, the build quality, electronics layout, electronics features, neck shape, fret finish, setup, cost...etc etc. What makes a guitar or bass what it is goes on and on. Sure, there isn't a ton of difference in sound guitar to guitar in some styles of music, but tone varies MASSIVELY in some styles...try playing a BB King song on an active EMG 81/85 metal guitar or Meshuggah on a Strat or Van Halen on a Takamine for instance. Could it TECHNICALLY work? Maybe. But it's not going to be the same. Moral of the story? People loooooove to go on and on with the whole "gear doesn't matter" thing and they take it way too far. I think that sentiment started out as a way to remind kids and n00bs that simply buying that shiny new EVH Wolfgang isn't going to magically turn you into Eddie, which is obviously true, but it's morphed into this weird...like...dismissal of gear...or something. It's weird. Because, yes. Of COURSE gear matters. 100% it does. For myriad reasons. And I love my Ibanez-es...or whatever the plural of "Ibanez" is. lol My new AEWC32FMRSF (CATCHY, Ibanez...) should be here Thursday! 😁

@@rmp5s dude the video IS about getting the same SOUND as Korn lol))) nobody was talking about anything else

[@rmp5s]

@@angryktulhu My comment, and your reply, was about Ibanez...

[@00Resev]

Well, you were quite brave to tackle Korn on a "sounds like"! The entire Korn sound is based around the group, not the individual, so any isolated instrument will not sound all that good on its own, especially since Korn is very groove oriented with the bass and drums providing a launch pad for that wall of aggressive low tuned guitar riffage. I'll go even further and say that, that sound only works well because of Jonathan Davis voice works as a binding between the instrumentals. Very unique, very iconic, and no wonder no other band exists that can copy the formula.

[@SrPepe1977]

Yet these guys did what you can do with just two fellas. They almost look uncomfortable when they play the really muddy bits. Muddy was more accepted in the 90s and early 2000s. All in all, I completely agree with your observations on Korn.

@@Heka41 Behemoth plays in C# Standard, which I didn't realise until I looked it up. I always played their music in drop C# The main point is, you can play anything in Drop A that you could otherwise play in A standard, it's just a matter of preference.

[@LeedyPeoples]

This video is the most important thing I came across. The years 2019 & i discovered Korn. I had a classical guitar, shitty stratocaster & a bass guitar with a bass amp. I then saw this video and fell in love with the BOSS ME-80. I would end up getting the pedal on Christmas Day of 2020 after purchasing a Fender champion 20 and a Squier Mustang. Today, i still use this pedal and I couldn’t be happier (I even used it to record some of my early stuff on my first DAW) Thank you Matt & Rabea ❤

I was in a foster home in Pomona and my roommate who was 19 at the time played music from his Xbox. The music was on auto play and freak on a leash was playing. I was watching as I see the bullet travel wondering if it'll hit anyone I wasn't into nu metal at the time but I loved the video. That was in 2019. Now in 2022 I enjoy Korn because I can relate to them I can feel the pain they feel (not completely everything but most things like being bullied and living in a shit home) I'm still in foster care I'm coming home soon and I thank Korn for helping me and giving me inspiration to do music.

[@wilhelmtheconquerer6214]

@@griffinlindal a drum setup doesn't have a "tone" too them in the same sense as a bass or guitar rig does. Yes, shell materials, sizes, cymbals, skins etc. all play a part in a good drum sound, but most of it, assuming the skins isn't beaten to death and the cymbals are cracked, is in the hands and, maybe even more importantly, the production. Black Sabbath's paranoid is a good example of a great drummer behind a good quality kit sounding pretty box-y and empty due to production. Of course I'd love to see a "sounds like-band" if you will, but guitar and (in some cases, as previously mentioned) bass is the meat and potatoes of it

[@RikKendell]

With most metal bands the guitars provide the main defining sound and the bass just fills it out. With Korn it's the reverse!

Primus is better example of this way. The bass carries the main part of the track and the guitar noodles around some licks or just drones behind it. Larry has got my respect for taming his ego so much, he's very good guitarist and so overshadowed.

[@Strat_inthehat]

Aaron Silverio indeed

[@manuelmirandawtf8345]

BBK has the best nü metal scatting of all Korn career

[@nickwatland3565]

haha dude I grew up loving Korn. all my guitarist friends talked shit then could never play there shit! I was like yeah dude, that's without even trying to make the tones sound correct. totally different approach.

[@nolanmacdougall1154]

At 9 years old in 94 hearing blind and better yet shoots and ladders mind blown 🤯 love it 💪🏻

[@MrJimmy4599]

FINALLY. IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS FOR A LONG TIME

[@Chadakkins]

Could be wrong but I believe Korn plays in Standard A!

[@KeeperOfPoops]

you're correct! it's D Standard on a 7 string, so A,D,G,C,F,A,D

[@DocArthurTX]

"ME-50 back in the day" I played with an ME-30. God.... I'm old.....

[@MetalSonicBricks]

And I had the ME-5...

[@rollipollirock]

Sound like Dokken without breaking the bank

[@kdog6793]

How to sound like korns debut album, based on personal experience. Hughes and Kettner Attax Series amplifier, and a 7 string with dimarzio blaze pickups tuned to A standard

[@FabrizioPeretti]

do TOTO! What amp would do that type tones (clean crunch and lead) but it's not 4k?

[@PhilDonovanguitarstudio]

Sounds great. Now I’m off to make a Korn playlist for my bike ride!!! :)

[@Davidtheswed]

Yngwie Malmsteen by not busting the bank. Metallica, Testament, ARCH ENEMY, Accept, Iced Earth, Judas Priest, By Busting The Bank. Yes please I need! Love you're great show! Greetings from Sweden.

[@johnnyresin]

good job, fellas! takes me back to the days of being a young lad in Bakersfield hearing an also young KoRn for the first time and thinking "well, these dudes are different!". then they exploded, ha

[@thisistheslam]

I'd love to hear something like As I Lay Dying and/or Wovenwar (mostly same musicians). Great tones to seek out there and if it were a budget-friendly sound then I'd be very interested to see the gear used to achieve their sound. Periphery might be a nice endeavor as well. In Flames?

[@NeoRichardBlake]

13:54 LOL! "Here's what it sounds like..." ::KZbin inserts a poppy car commercial:: I was so shook for a half-second, because I was just listening while working. It was like the audio equivalent of picking up an empty box that you thought was full of books. xD

[@prithwishkar9623]

Sound like polyphia... please 💙💙💙

[@IamMusicNerd]

I would like to see more of these videos with multi-effects. For people on a budget, multi-effects are a great way to get multiple sounds without having to buy so many pedals.

[@drainbramige3789]

You should do The Stone Roses as this year is the 30th Anniversary of their self titled album.

[@joeysephy]

Ye boyyyy

[@MariachiDeS]

Wow. It's cool to see this particlar Jackson, because this is the model that I own. And also the first seven string I ever bought (and for even cheaper price than you are talking about). With DR-DDT strings it sounds amazing, the tuning is absolutely stable, no trouble with drop tunings. And if the pickups are too hot, you just roll back the volume pot a little bit. Amazing instrument for ridiculously low money.

[@rsjudgeemall3438]

I always preferred "Got The Life" to "Freak On A Leash."

[@noahbrewer6920]

Yes. Got the life was always better.

[@dennistuned6963]

Nah

[@KeeperOfPoops]

i prefered Blind to Freak On A Leash

[@Stubz_Perez]

That bass in Got The Life is crushing!

[@MONKEYZENTV]

Great video fellas. I'd love to see you do that Ramstein

[@TheProgGuy]

Technically their guitars are a full step down tuned. On a 6 string, it would be D Standard, and with a 7 string the low B down to an A...so A Standard (i think?).

[@KeeperOfPoops]

Yeah, it's A,D,G,C,F,A,D A Standard

[@jg932]

Been waiting 4 this one!

[@IndieMerchantSam]

Still waiting for sound like Avenged Sevenfold without busting the bank

[@tylersaltmarsh9025]

Same.... years....

[@oscarmullen]

YES

[@rlg222]

Great video! Love Korn for many years... That could be close for a Korn cover band!

[@laidlaw3]

Correction Head now has a signature model with ESP

[@XneverstopfightingX]

Thank you! I was looking for someone else to point this out!

[@johnsguitarmusicanddemos]

Korn is a band that changed the game with their lower tunings mixed with awesome Fieldy bass grooves!

[@jayerone6]

Sound like Ritchie Blackmore Sound like Nirvana under 500 Sound Like SRV by Busting Sound like Judas Priest Sound Like Blur

[@Nano_Noodles]

Sound like Nirvana under $500 get a cheap squire get a boss DS-1 from a pawn shop get amp from pawn shop tune the guitar then don't tune it again for 3 months and done. Kurt bought alot of his gear from pawn shops

[@straceeverett7213]

Saw them headline Rocklahoma Saturday night 🤘🏼 y’all nailed their huge sound

[@NoisePollutionMusic]

Sounds like Fear Factory or Strapping Young Lad/Devin Townsend

[@Liquidmetal6661]

I second this for SYL/ Devin Townsend (More for Dev cause his sound is more diverse)

[@Cbrmansc77]

I this you guys are amazing and I enjoy watching your channel but I got a fact check. Korn is been recording sence the mid 90s they are not new
