KoRn or Disturbed?
 
These are probably to of my favourite metal bands, and the two that I know the best. Which do you guys prefer?

gothbabe2 01-21-2004 10:22 PM

oooooohhhhhh god = tough call...... i love Distrurbed but ive like more of Korns stuff so i guess korn ;)

lgcg50 01-22-2004 02:25 PM

Disturbed...just cuz Prayer is such ana amzing song...but i will admit that korn has more songs in general that i like...just none that i love

Rockafella Skank 01-22-2004 03:14 PM

I don't know anything about Disturbed, so I cannot be a fair judge. I like most of what I hear from KoRn, though. They seem to have a very distinct sound to their music.

MobilizeTerror 01-22-2004 05:24 PM

I like Disturbed way better ..Korns old stuff was ok, but their new stuff, in my opinion, is horrible... But I dont like either band that much really.

i agree

It seems all their(Korn) songs have heavy distortion and they play bar chords only...which is not difficult at all. They are ok, but i think Disturbed is much better...they put more into it.

IndieRiot 01-22-2004 09:22 PM

I hate both.

Xarius 01-25-2004 11:38 AM

Overall I think that although KoRn has more albums and songs to listen too, and are better known, Disturbed is better.
To me the difference is the raw energy that you can hear in a lot of Disturbed's songs, vs. how KoRn's sometimes have that feeling, but are also a lot of the time just depressing, or almost disappointed sounding.

punks-in-my-blood 04-01-2004 10:08 AM

korn deffinitly, i dont like disturbed

but the best metal band is Slayer

Beor Uaine 04-01-2004 11:12 AM

I like both bands, but I was way into Korn before Disturbed. Disturbed's first album was awesome, but they can't top Korn's self titled album IMO. You can't beat songs like ***et, Divine, Ball Tongue, Daddy, Clown, and Shoots and Ladders. Korn was an influence on Disturbed's music. David, is a better singer than Johnathan IMO, but I still have to go with Korn.

winterslastbreath 04-01-2004 01:00 PM

i haven't listened to either in a really long time.. i like korn's old stuff a lot.. but really i never listened to disturbed too much. so... i can't judge fairly either. :p:

Eltiraaz 04-01-2004 01:34 PM

I think KoRn was a better band when they were starting out.. new KoRn is so unbelievably horrible I cant stand to watch their videos or listen to their music.

I havent heard alot of Disturbed, but what I have heard its a helluva lot better than KoRn, even though its not my favorite

jibber 04-01-2004 07:21 PM

not a fan of either, at all. korn's old stuff wasn't bad, but ya, the new stuff is just awful. disturbed just doesn't do it for me either.

Xarius 04-03-2004 12:17 PM

KoRn's newest album is pretty good...its more like their older ones. I think Follow the Leader was amazing.

DJ_Jester 04-03-2004 07:45 PM

I'd have to go with Korn. Both vocals and bass lines always stand out to me. Although Mudshovel always makes me think of NHL Hitz. :P

TranquilMelee 06-27-2004 05:57 PM

Disturbed no questions asked

David Frost 06-30-2004 08:49 PM

hmm the never ending debate... Korn or Disturbed... ill make it easy, Death.


ahh, now thats much better

SikThInDaHead 07-01-2004 08:09 AM

HaHaHa.Disturbed ****in suck.I dont know how any of you can seriouisly compare them.KoRn are a 1000 times better than Disturbed.KoRns 1st album is in my opinion one of the greatest ever.Granted,they are now producing wank on toast(without the toast!!)But Disturbed man,are you ****in kiddin me??Anyway.SikTh are better than both.

Thrice 07-01-2004 09:36 AM

Make your opinions a little bit nicer please...

Basically, dont be such a ****

TranquilMelee 07-01-2004 11:13 AM

hey sikinthaa** or wutever calm down with the cussin n bsides disturbed actually has flow to there music

TranquilMelee 07-01-2004 11:16 AM

DJ Jester... mudshovel is from staind so where did that come from

lil P.I.M.P 07-01-2004 11:54 PM

i Think Korn's CD Follow The Leader, was one of the best CD's i've ever heard just because it was constant and every song to me was awesome but their first 3 CD's were the only one's i really liked. so back then, DEFINITELY KORN, but now, I'd have to say disturbed.

metal head 07-03-2004 05:54 PM

disturbed by far is better

AmyLeeFan 08-23-2004 10:53 PM

KORN ROCKS! (mom and dad won't let me get there CDs)

Disturbed1 08-30-2004 03:37 AM

i suppose with this nick, dont have to say too much lol. I have tried to listen to more korn because there are quite a few of their singles i loved but (and i dont mean to sound like my mum here) alot of it seems to just be noise and screaming. I prefer to hear what a singer is saying (or shouting). I do love some of the korn songs but The sickness cd blew me away. Not one song i dont like and it sums alot up for me. Believe wasnt anywhere near as good although, with musical technicality, they have got better (ie. the guitar in remember is outstanding) and draimans voice is spot on.

pompom 10-14-2004 04:20 AM

i have to say that my favourite would have to be korn. korn are wicked and the music is wicked too.

Necromancer 05-20-2010 09:24 PM

Disturbed
 
My favorite single by Korn has always been 'Y'all want a single', this is one funk ass rock song.
'Here to stay' is one loud ass distortion orientated single I like also, its so unique within its own style by itself...and so damn loud on guitars that the vocals are almost at the point of being drownded out....I love it, but I can only tolerate 2 or 3 songs at a time sober.
Disturbed is by all means my favorite band out of these two they have alot more songs that I like than Korn does, Disturbed is my fav band in this genre.

IWP 05-20-2010 11:23 PM

Both suck ass, and are sorry excuses for "metal". Listen to Artillery, or Overkill.

Ive listend to Overkill (American thrash metal) a few times before but nothing from Artillery (Danish technical thrash metal) so far, I will have to make it a point to check them out.
KORN (American nu-metal)
Disturbed (Heavy Metal)

RHCPfan88 05-25-2010 12:46 PM

I know they're both metal bands but...
 
I believe they are totally different. Korn has that distinct heavy bass sound that I love so much and Disturbed is more of a rough rockin' band. I think Disturbed has been more consistent as far as quality over the years. Korn's last album sucked IMHO. Hopefully Korn III will be much better. Cannot wait for Asylum from Disturbed though.

Necromancer 05-25-2010 01:30 PM

Thats very good insight 88, I also agree.

Violent & Funky 05-25-2010 03:23 PM

Disturbed hasn't released anything that can touch KoRn's 1994 self-titled debut...

That is a very bold statement V&F, I like Korn..but to suggest that Disturbed has nothing that can touch an album by Korn seems very overstated and only a matter of self opinion.

ElephantSack 05-25-2010 05:46 PM

I'll take 'neither' for 500, Alex.

That album was groundbreaking, consistent, and emotionally powerful. I prefer Davis's 'Daddy' over Disturbed's 30 seconds in the middle of 'Down with the Sickness'...

Super Sarah 05-26-2010 02:57 PM

The lead singer of Disturbed is soooo ***. (not that there's anything wrong with that) Have you ever seen them live? I can't stand him.

Korn ftw. :)

Synthetic Ecstasy 05-30-2010 11:36 AM

I enjoy the music of both bands; but if I had to choose one I'd go with Disturbed.

I think the song that got me into them was "Stupify" which although isn't one of their better ones did get me hooked a little bit; I checked out a few more and will confess to wanting David Draimans' rock/metal babies...
:laughing:

Seriously, though, I love tracks like Inside the Fire, Stricken, etc (and obviously can't beat Down With The Sickness for some pure anger!) so for me, Disturbed win every time.

AleG 05-30-2010 11:46 AM

I hardly listen to either...

But I'd go with Disturbed. Reason: I prefer listening to their music? '10 000 Fists', 'Stricken', 'Decadence'; good songs.

Sljslj 06-01-2010 11:25 AM

Korn, hands down. Just listen to the debut album or Untouchables.
