You can be a nu-metal fan but not be constantly engaging with the classics, particularly a band's--by their own admission--rushed second album. We know about the legacy of the self-titled. We know about how many copies Follow the Leader sold. But where does "Life is Peachy" fit into Korn's legacy as a band, and the legacy of nu-metal as a whole in 2022? Well, it turns out that both Bryan and John were very pleasantly surprised by how much they liked it still. It completely whips, and we have fun getting into all of it. We discuss Ross Robinson's "improved" production, why exactly Jonathan Davis is so mad at Mr. Rogers, what a song consisting of the most vile words the English language has is doing on the album, and why there's two covers over the span of 3 songs. It's a testament both to Korn's excess at the time, but also the limited scope and budget with which they had to operate that excess. It's an album that has some of Korn's absolutely best songs, and some of their most baffling decisions, but ultimately stands the true test of time. And of course, we dig into the interviews and get more of these dumb guys saying very dumb things. It's Korn, what do you expect?
