Life Is Peachy in Bloomington, MN

Life Is Peachy
,
Korn
have enhanced their metallic influences, delving deeper into murky sonic textures and grinding, menacing rhythms straight out of underground
black metal
.
add enough elements of

song structure to make the music accessible to the masses, and their songwriting has continued to improve. Nevertheless, the band's main strength is their raging, visceral sound, which is far more memorable and effective than their songs. The riffs might not always catch hold, but the primal guitars and vocals always hit home. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine
