Korn

Korn is a Grammy Award winning Metal band from Bakersfield, California. They are often credited with creating and popularizing the nu metal genre. Formed in 1993, the band has had a constant formation for 12 years until some members left to pursue other ventures. Korn's music combines heavy metal and hip-hop elements, and they gained a dedicated fan base through their intense live shows.

The band was formed after L.A.P.D., which consisted of Reginald Arvizu, James Shaffer, David Silveria, and Richard Morill disbanded due to drug addictions.
