“Yooooouuuuuu Weren’t Reeeaaaaadyyyyyyyy”

“ARE YOU READYYYY?!!” “I wasn’t ready for that at all” 😭🤣🤣

This was pretty much the birth of nu metal right here, and this song was most likely everyone's first exposure to Korn. They had a HUGE impact on the direction of music in the 90's!

this was the planets first korn song , first song on the first album

"Ohh... listen to that chunky bass!" Cell phone listeners: "I didn't hear anything..."

Imagine being like me, 14 in 1995 and hearing this for the first time! It was truly revolutionary in so many ways. Still sounds filthy as fcuk almost 30 YEARS LATER! Can't believe this is that old!!!

Wait till he hears twist! The album version of course. 53 seconds of pure twisted bliss. 🤘

Whoever told you listen to Woodstock first is mental. The studio version of blind is essential day one korn. PLEASE REACT TO DEFTONES "MY OWN SUMMER"

Don't worry about people complaining about rewinding, most of us are used to it on reaction channels, and most of us enjoy it because we like watching people go off on cool parts of the song

I listen to country music religiously until my mom pulled me aside in one of those old school record stores that had listening booths and told me that I should check something out. It was Korn and when I heard him say "are you ready?" my mind whispered "yes" and they literally not only changed but saved my life multiple times. I finally knew someone who has been through hell like me and still made it to the top.

Frickin' love your passion, man. "Let's start a band in Birmingham, man." That's probably what Ozzy said to Tony Iommi in the 60's. Dude, you're great.

This tune just makes you want to go crazy! The bass is always spectacular on Korn tunes. Wanna kick some ass!!!!!

Korn is never a bad choice!!!

I am from Southern California and I grew up around all the greatest bands that ever performed. Saw most of them when they were just coming up playing small venues...Best time of my life. You could watch these guys perform. Get in the mosh pit, then party with them after the show...

KoRn is one of the first bands responsible for sending me on a deep, dark path of metal 🤘🏼

Dude this is the first their heaviest and their best album. I literally shook the tail lights out of my car with the bass from the song

Do Woodstock 99 version of this. Nothing is lost from the studio version. And, I cannot emphasize this enough...DON'T DO DADDY!

The advantage of being old as fuck is that I got to see Korn and Limp Bizkit play together on their first tour in the UK, back in the day

That long intro has to be one of the best ever for building anticipation. Then the song explodes, followed by the kind of serious, introspective lyrics that defined a lot of ‘90s rock and metal. The time for that had come. Always gonna be glad I grew up on music that was so seriously strong.

My favorite band, my favorite vocalist Jonathan Davis makes the little hairs on my eardrum stand up and salute him! Sooooooo many MORE BANGERS from Korn!

Koяn is the best live band I've ever seen. Download Fest. The show was 10/10 perfect 🤘

I saw Korn a few times in the late 90’s. The energy from the band and the crowd was unbelievable, I can’t even explain it. Can’t wait for the Woodstock reaction!

I love your Korn reactions because it's exactly how I felt when I first heard them, especially this song!

If blind made you cry.thats just the tip of the iceberg.

Korn's going on tour this fall!! And idgaf if the tickets are $400 I will be there!!!!! 🤘👿🤘

My FAVOURITE band of all time. YES MOLLY! Ball tongue is the second song on this album and it hits EVEN HARDER.

AAAARRRREE YOOOOOOUUUUUU RRRREEEAAAADDY???????????

Next is Korn -Alone I break... Super powerful

You reaction was almost like mine first time hearing this. Like smiling and thinking holy shit! When this album dropped it blew everyone away!

This was their opening song when I went to Ozzfest about 27 years ago. Packed in like sardines and everyone jumping up and down at the same time. I felt breathless and exhilarated at the same time.

Been to so so many Korn shows and almost every show this is what the open up with!!! It’s invigorating!!! And sets the tone for the whole concert!

I had the same reaction. This was the first Korn song I ever heard. I was eleven years old, and it was OVER. I've loved hard rock ever since, and Korn is still my favorite band of all time.

There is nothing like being in the pit when this song kicks in!!! Been to about 15 Korn concerts. My favorite one ever was Korn and Staind in 2000!!! Almost a 4 hour concert. Pretty sure that’s why I don’t have cartilage in my knees today!!!

COLD- just got wicked. Severely underrated band.

Amazing reaction bro as always. No band has meant more to me than Korn, there music changed my life forever, Jonathan Davis is the voice of my generation. Hope you continue down the rabbit hole. 🤘🔥🔥

I still remember the first time I heard this, it was 30 years ago. I was 17 and it was night time. I was in the car with my Mom and it completely rewired my brain. I saw them live a few years later, one of the best of many concerts I've been to.

Korn are in a league all of their own ❤ great reaction

Korn's First entire album is gold. Next two albums have the most bad ass songs ever. Like Dead Bodies Everywhere. Lead singer Jonathan Davis was being forced by his family to be a mortician. Yes he had to learn how to prepare dead bodies for viewing at funerals. He did this straight out of High School in Bakersfield California, a two hour drive from where I live. Anyway he left that job to join Korn, which his parents were not happy about. He was abused as a child and a lot of Korn's first songs come from the anger and frustration that he had to go through growing up in a toxic home.

I love seeing people younger than me discovering music I grew up on and having the same reaction I did when I first heard it. This song was my introduction to any type of metal and it blew my mind apart, I was instantly hooked.

Ive seen Korn 6 times live. They never ever disapoint. They a killer live. So much fun. They have opened 3 different times with this song. The Aaaare you readdyyy. Just fires the crowd up then for 2 hours they tear the house down. I have loved them since the first tine i heard em! Stoked you like em Molly!

Hell yeah, you gonna need a neck brace after this one.. I had a 2,200 watt bass setup with 2 15’s and a 444-watt 6.5” 4 channel 3-way setup and I played this all the time so everyone within 400 feet heard it.. Some music you just need a high end car system to fully appreciate it..

Molly my mate... Saw these 3 times in a month once.. Saw them with slipknot too. That was a cracking Monday night..in fact there is a video on my channel..I know you ain't got time for that, but it's the start of the concert at the Manchester arena..it's like a UFO taking off 👽🤟 My daughter who's 24 has the album cover from see you on the other side tattooed on her shoulder.. This is the first Korn tune I heard and it's a game changer

Absolutely do the live version!!! ARE YOU READY? That beginning bass note is so much more pronounced and the crowd is INSANE!

Man, I'm a 36 year old half English man half legit Florida man. My dad is English my mom is American. I grew up listening to all kinds of amazing music but when I was around 13 I started to completely fall in love with 90's and early 2000's rock. Korn is one of my favorite bands ever. It's so cool to see you falling in love with this music too.

"Coming undone " is my favorite KORN song.

Korn fucking rules 😮😊

I saw Korn in 1994 when I went to see White Zombie. I hadn't even heard of them,or heard any of their music. I wasn't sure what to think of them at the time because they were so different from anything else I had heard. But they have definitely become one of my favorite Nu-Metal bands in the years since 😉

This was the first Korn song I ever heard.. probably about 13yo and it blew my mind.

Please react to a band called (hed)pe, they opened for Korn on Korns 1st major tour which was for this album. (hed)pe is metal, punk music infused with hip hop, songs I suggest are Suffa, Renegade, Killing Time, Ordo Ab Chao or Bartender. Thx & keep the great reactions coming.

If you like bass riffs you're gonna love Deftones - My Own Summer

I, for one, love to see when you get caught up in the songs and rewind just as I did myself back when all these songs came out. There is still hope for heavy music, thank you for helping spread the word!

I've probably heard this song over 10k times. I've seen it live 15x, and it still gives me goosebumps. Heard this album the night i graduated in 95. Game changer, for a generation.

I was in the crowd at Woodstock, maybe 200ft from the stage. It was wild. Check out "Dead Bodies Everywhere" and "Counting on Me" by Korn at some point.

Also mate...I know you got a mega list going on, but...... Trivium,. A gunshot to the head of trepidation. That's your first metal core banger..😉👊🏻

I was probably 15 when this hit, and when my friends and I heard it...... it KINDA changed everything. I think that might be a pretty universal sentiment from a lot of people about Korn's music around that time. And that's pretty big praise. These guys were a soundtrack to a LOT of people's stories. It's awesome to see you experiencing that with fresh ears and keeping it alive. Thanks man! Keep rocking

I got to hang out backstage with Korn when they played the Krazy House in Liverpool in '96 and we listened to some of their new stuff with them before the second album released. Bands just wouldn't do that with fans now. I miss the '90s so much. Music was just different. It meant something.

I'm glad you listened to the studio first, because you're right, the Woodstock version goes off the scale. The crowd reaction is sick.

Dude... you don't rewind enough.

saw this on MTVs Headbangers Ball Back in the days and got instantly hooked. saw them on their first european club tour with 250 people in Frankfurt Germany. was mesmerising!! fan since then...

I am from that era 90s Nu Metal there’s nothing like it! Till this day people I hung out with still listen to this bands now my daughter like the same bands I used to listen to and we rock together!

If you listen to their song daddy, make sure its the lyric video.. But prepare yourself

I played bass in the 90's with the best drummer I ever knew while serving in the Marine Corps. He turned me on to Tool, Korn, Deftones, Fear Factory, Rage against the Machine, Machine head, Life of Agony, etc. When I was discharged in '98, Korn and Deftones' first albums spoke directly to my rage and anger and were the friends I never knew. Tool presented later as a spirit guide out. Your reaction to this song is not unexpected, and your need to go back to hear again is completely understood and forgiven. I would suggest Deftones Lifter as your next nu metal song. Trust this Marine. It will wrap around your emotional centers and boil things to your conscious center in a way that you may not want to show in a first reaction video. God bless you, sir, and happy Victory Day!

I’ve been listening to this song since 97 and I still start it over to hear various points❤

This music is still here .seen korn last summer and going again this summer

This was the first KoRn music video from their 1994 self-titled debut album... It was something completely new in the 'alternative rock' 90's... 'Blind' was the introduction of this band to the world by MTV cos radio would not touch them initially... By 1996, the album went gold (half million copies sold) in the US and heralded the arrival of the new generation of heavy rock music after the tragic end of Nirvana in '94... a mix of 90's hip hop and heavy rock w/ lyrics about angst, rage and childhood trauma - It was a dark record for sure but energetic and incredible. Originally formed in Bakersfield, California... the members started out as the band L.A.P.D. before Jonathan Davis (lead vocals) joined in 1993 and KoRn was born w/ Brian 'Head' Welch & James 'Munky' Shaffer (guitars), Reggie 'Fieldy' Arvizu (bass) and David Silveria (drums)... The band was introduced to producer Ross Robinson to work on their debut album and signed w/ Immortal Records (which signed distribution w/ major label Epic Records) Jonathan Davis was struggling w/ drug abuse at the time ... he delved into his childhood traumas and the abuse he had suffered for lyrical inspiration on the record. One of the tracks for the album was particularly disturbing, which closed the debut album - 'Daddy'... it was about Davis being sexually assaulted as a child by a family friend and his parents refusing to believe him... While tracking the vocals for the song, Jonathan Davis couldn't finish it and broke down in tears, screaming hysterically in the studio... That was included in the final version that made it on the record. Davis was a huge fan of The Cure and their brand of angst... so a lot of that inspired the lyrics. KoRn released the album in 1994 and started actively touring in 1995 as MTV put the singles - 'Blind'... 'Clown'... and 'Shoots and ladders' on airplay. The 'KoRn' album became a classic and has sold 2x platinum in the US to date. KoRn released a more hardcore 2nd album 'Life is peachy' in 1996... it sold gold faster than the debut album w/ only 1 major single - 'A.D.I.D.A.S' ... It was their 3rd album 'Follow the leader' in 1998 that broke KoRn into superstardom as the album went 5x platinum in the US w/ 2 major singles - 'Got the life'... and 'Freak on a leash'... The album also featured rappers Ice Cube, Tre Hardison of Pharcyde... and Cheech & Chong on a cover of 'Earache my eye'.

30 years later and still no one is ready for how fucking good that intro is.

I LOVE this song. It's top 10 best metal songs ever. I was kinda resistant to these guys in the beginning though. I had kinda seen them live open for Ozzy but we gotten there late so we only saw Korn play one song. Don't even remember what it was.Fast forward several years into the future and I had won tickets to Ozzfest( if you don't know what that is,look it up! ) Korn was coming on after Marylin Manson. After his set I looked around and said no way Korn could top that. This guy and his buddy turn around and tell me to just wait. I don't remember if they opened with it or it was a few songs in, but they played it and the crowd went APESHIT!!!! People bouncing up and down as far as you could see. I came in a skeptic and left a believer! Blew me away. I got to see again a few years ago open for Slipknot ( which I also won tickets to! 😃) and they haven't lost a step. They could have been better than Slipknot that night. Impressive as hell

Welcome to Nu Metal brother the 90s was a Magical time for me and I still listen to all the Nu Metal Bands every day it literally saved my life. Awesome reaction

I'm loving how much you are enjoying the Music I grew up with and love so much.

Happy to hear you'll be diving into this genre. Limp Bizkit gets me so hyped up when im having a rough day. Especially "Stuck" and "Break Stuff"

Korn should be on everyone's playlist. Wait til he hears "Freak on a leash" His brains will seep out from his headset. lmao!

I was there when they filmed the live performance at Chain Reaction in Orange Country, Ca. In fact, I have the other bands that played that night on video as well - one (Strife) on my channel - made me put the camera away for their video lol. But, yes, live they're absolutely insane, especially in a small venue. Cool to see this reaction. Cheers!

My favourites as a teen. Still my favourites today as I approach my 40s

It’s fun to see someone fall in love with KoRn like I did at age 14 in 1994 with their debut album. 30 years of being a fan & I love them more now then in the 90s. In my opinion they don’t have a bad song. Enjoy your KoRn journey. ✌🏻💚🤘🏻 it’s the only way to fly!

i love experiencing when young bucks see for the first time what we grew up with. they had no idea how cool the late 90's early 2k's were. we had some really good years. not the same as the 70's - 90's but still very powerful music.

How huge this sounds now. Imagine this is the musical landscape that existed almost 30 years ago. Huge.

The "it was so beautiful " man I feel this what a reaction 🤟

We play this and freak on a Leash in our cover set list and people still go crazy for them 🤘

Korn has been my all time favorite band since 98

Old Korn, best Korn. Hello from Chile! 🇨🇱

This is their best album iMHO. Drum performance is still invincible to this day.

Bro you are in for a treat coz Korn have soooooo many fuckin great tunes man. Our era was so good for music, I still listen to Korns music frequently especially their first few albums. Gets me so pumped Keep up the sick vids bro and enjoy

My first concert was Korn White Zombie in 96 or 97 I believe....they literally felt like they were gonna blow the roof off the place with their atmosphere i was blown away by performance... The live Woodstock version of Blind will show you this no doubt

I’m excited to see what the creative mystery nu metal video will be! I’ve really enjoyed watching you discover all my favorite bands ❤ Good God is another awesome Korn song I haven’t seen many people suggest 😊

😂 I remember hearing this for the first time back in the 90s same reaction … no one was making music like this so it’s literally a wtf moment. Korn fan forever.

That whole album is fantastic man. Blind is just the beginning. Listen to it all in one shot.

Korn I feel is one metal band most hip-hop heads can really enjoy, with the funky bass and drums. Can't wait to see your reaction on their woodstock 99 performance

I was at Woodstock 99 I would totally watch a reaction to it. Netflix has a pretty accurate documentary about it. The acts at Woodstock that stuck with me the most were Korn, Metallica, Rage Against the Machine, The Offspring and The Red Hot Chili Peppers. At the time DMX seemed like an afterthought but he was good, I was hoping Godsmack's set would be better, but it was also on the smaller stage so much less people there and it didn't have the feel of the other acts. Even thinking of the fairgrounds is nostalgic though. The campground, the never-ending drum circle, the late-night rave when all the other bands stopped playing. I was awake nearly the entire 3 days. I just took one 20-minute nap in a puddle by the showers (that may or may not have had sewage in it. it was day 2) I would definitely go again though.

You are becoming my favorite reactor to my favorite genre of rock music. Keep going!!!

saw these guys right after this was released at a small venue in Detroit, show was absolutely nuts

As im 49 .,ive had the pleasure of seeing them 4 times...badass shows. This was 94. Get some Pantera in ya.

THE WOODSTOCK LIVESTREAM IDEA IS SUCH A GOOD IDEA!!! THAT WOULD BE SO FUN :D THE LIMPBIZCUIT AND KORN PERFORMANCE IS DEFINITELY WORTH THE WATCH!! amazing video, once again< 3

I remember when this vid first played on the Headbangers Ball on MTV. It was so different than what was big at the time.

Rewind as much as you need to, man. That's the glory of hearing a song for the first time; you get to truly immerse yourself in it. It's nearly impossible to take a good song in on the first listen

Content keeps getting better my dude. Korn always makes me want to go crazy.

probably my first and favorite Korn song

You're killing me Mollyboy. As you say be kind and rewind... when you said oh what the fuck is that chunky bass I had to rewind it at least five times 😂😅

Please relive it again and again!!! Live it love it!! It's your time! I love your reaction.

Another first for me MB! Added to the playlist. I’m going on the Nu metal journey with you. Was pretty nervous always stayed away cuz of the band name when I was young. No excuse I’m here now.

😂😂😂😂😂love this reaction Saw them live twice in the late 90's....amazeballs!
