35. Korn

When it comes to passionate fanbases there are few that can match up with Korn, the Nu-Metal band (a label they are not fond of) from Bakersfield, California.

It was that fervent fanbase generally comprise of disenfranchised testosterone laden young men that identified so well with the Post-Grunge music of Korn.  It was powerful, abrasive and somewhat offensive but it spoke to an audience that had to seek them out as they were not a darling of MTV, radio or really any other mainstream outlet.  Critically speaking, Korn took what their predecessors were doing to another level and were nobody’s copycat.  If earlier traditional metal bands can knock down the doors of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, there is a shot for Korn.

The Bullet Points

  • Eligible Since: Wednesday, 01 January 2020
  • Country of Origin: U.S.A. (Bakersfield, CA)
  • Why they will get in: In terms of popularity and devotion they have few equals.

  • Nominated in: Never
  • Essential Albums:

    Korn (1994)
    Life is Peachy (1996)
    Follow the Leader (1998)

    Falling Away from Me (From Issues, 1999)
    Here to Stay (From Untouchables, 2002)
