New Korn Video Sends Powerful Message
« on: March 01, 2004, 12:56:00 PM »
this video is awsome and it is very powerful coming from a band with as much "weight" behind them as KoRn

i suggest even non korn fans watch the video atleast once to read what it has to say..

http://search.launch...arch/all?p=korn

scroll down to videos and click on yall want a single..

for those on low bandwidth connections

the video is of them smashing a record store apart inside..

and it flashes messages up on the screen, which include

"music monopoly?"
"ONE corporation owns the 5 major video channels in the US"
"is that OK?"
"last year the BIG 5 record labels together sold about $25 billion dollars of music"
"90% of releases on major labels DO NOT make a profit"
"britney spears last video cost $1,000,000"
"this korn video costs $150,000"
"will any music channel play this video?"
"the music "industry" releases 100 songs per week"
"only 4 songs are added to the average radio playlist each week"
"hit songs on TOP 40 are repeated over 100 times a week"
"is that ALL you want to hear?"
"why is a song worth .99 cents?"
"do you download songs?"
"STEAL THIS VIDEO"
"this is a single"
"two radio comglomerates control 42% of listeners"
"the record company wanted us to change this video. we dident"
"90% of all singles get to "the hook" within 20 seconds"
"98% of all #1 singles are less then 3:30 seconds long"
"does this seem like a formula to you?"
"with all this said...."
"we love making music"
"is this the music "business"?"


it sends a very powerful and real message.. dont you think?

BTW.. this is NOT a thread for people to say "korn sucks" i dont want to hear it because i dont care about your opinion.. this is to comment on this video

Daaaamn.  I'm not even a fan of Korn but I think that video kicks ass.  NO WAY they'd show that on MTV.

Looks like they hate the RIAA even more than I do.   muhaha.gif

LOL... Yeah that vid will make some more Korn fans no doubt.

Also prove they are not one of the money hungry bands. They play music casue they like to, not just cause of the money.

Unless that is just a ploy to make them more money.... dry.gif

Of course they play music to make money.  Why do you think that you can walk into any record store and find CD's, T-shirts, posters, stickers, patches, etc of this band.  Just another one of those pissed off at the world, hot topic, rap metal crap bands.  Cool video though.

another example of some kid that is on a bands balls that got nowhere in life and is out to talk trash on any band that found success

of course they need to make their money.. this is their lively hood.. they make pizza money off album sales.. real money comes from hitting the road and touring.

don't be so dramatic dude, even if he doesnt like a band, who cares, it really doesnt matter at all.
