Year/Genre/Sub-Genre/City: 1998, Metal, Nu Metal, Bakersfield, CA
Condition: New
Cultural Facts:
-
Studio Lore: Recorded with Steve Thompson and Toby Wright while the band was touring nonstop—sessions were fragmented, built around exhaustion and schedule chaos.
-
Public Scandal: Korn leaned into moral-panic attention, then got hit with real backlash as school-violence debates and censorship pressure spiked in the late ’90s.
-
Media Narrative: The hidden-track “game” and expanded packaging were part of peak-CD-era marketing—turning discovery itself into the product experience.
