Product Description
Deluxe CD/DVD Set Includes:
-3 Bonus Tracks
-DVD of 10 In-Studio Videos
-Expanded Artwork
Their ninth offering, 'Korn III -Remember Who You Are,' is their first effort for brand new label home, Roadrunner Records, and it bursts at the seams with that very feeling that defined the band from the get-go. Each song unleashes an uneasiness reminiscent of Korn's earliest and most unbridled material, but there's also a modern refinement that's epic in its execution. Korn definitely don't lose sight of their roots on 'Korn III - Remember Who You Are,' but they also venture into uncharted darkness. All that truly matters is where they're going. The album strikes a balance between their past and their future, as it finds the band reuniting with producer Ross Robinson, who manned the boards for their first two records, all the while joining forces with Roadrunner Records, the world's leading rock label. With 'Korn III - Remember Who You Are,' it's their time...
Album Description
Limited CD/DVD Edition digipak with expanded artwork, three bonus tracks and a DVD that contains in-studio videos of the band playing each track on the album live. 2010 release from the Alt-Metal outfit. With Korn III - Remember Who You Are, Korn unleash their ninth studio album in an impressive career which has send them sell over 32 million albums worldwide. On the album's quasi-concept theme, frontman Jonathan Davis explains "It comes down to one question: 'Who the fuck am I?' It's about remembering where we came from. The title sums up everything I'm talking about lyrically...People get so wrapped up in social communities, the Internet and technology that they forget who they are and what life's really about. I fucking forgot who I was until I did this record. I look at the records we've done as slots in time, and I believe Remember Who You Are is very special."

 "...labastica eupohoricalas maximus!" July 13, 2010

At 53 years of age and still listening to everything that is out there very few bands still create a level of anxious when releasing new music. Korn is definitely on that list and I suppose I would get borderline giddy if the Pixies were to release some new material. You know Korn when you hear Korn by the trademark voice of Jonathan Davis. It is the nucleus of this band along with a driving sound that is unmistakable. Under pressure from their rabid fans and critics alike Korn turned back the proverbial hands of time and took us on a journey into the past. I actually thought the last CD was a crowning achievement brimming with creativity from a band that probably was aching to do something different and groundbreaking. Instead their faithful army of head bobbing radicals molested them by not accepting an abrupt turn in the road and Korn took it on the chin. Anyone who listens to this new music and denies it is not "old school" Korn needs to buy some ear wax removal liquid and then listen again. Korn is back with a vengence and their fans will be most grateful...
Korn is the epitome of Evolution! July 31, 2010

Okay, so I am sooo annoyed by people saying, "It's just not the old korn", or "Korn sucks now".
Everyone seems to be basing their review upon who Korn was to start with: Five dudes looking for the life of a rockstar. They all had their own hidden issues, and all of them were doing drugs of some kind.
Where are they now? Even though only three of the five members are still there, they still have changed a lot. All of them are family men now, and both Fieldy and Jon are completely sober (IDK about Munky)... Obviously, after having fame for 16 years, their music is gonna change!
If you listen to every album in a row, it is COMPLETELY different than the one before it. Realize that Korn is a band that has evolutionized its music every single album. Korn helped create nu-metal, and sure, they've changed their sound, because maybe they don't want to sound like all of their followers! It is good to try and create new music, sound different. If not, we would have been bored of them a LOOONGG time ago.
Anyways, I would rate this album as their 6th best album (Their first five albums being the first rated ones, though in a particular order). It sounds kind of like Take a Look in the Mirror, but there is definitely a lot of groovy beats to appreciate, such as in Follow the Leader. If you even remotely like Korn, this album is one to add to your collection of music.
More Great Music from a Great Band August 15, 2010

I can honestly say that I understand how this album, or any album, is not capable of satisfying everyone. I can also admit that Korn is not the same band they were 10 years ago, but I have to say that they have progressed and worked hard to become much more versatile than other bands. This album, while not as good as some of their older music, is still well worth listening to, and if you are a true Korn fan, you will appreciate this album just as much as the others.
Thank you, Ross Robinson. July 13, 2010

In all honesty, Ross Robinson saved this band. He made them, "let it all hang out," and not be so technical like the past two releases. I still think that, "Take a Look in the Mirror," is the closest Korn will ever get to sounding old-school, but this one is pretty good, too. If you liked the first two records, you'll enjoy this one.
Dark & Ugly, The Roots Of Korn July 16, 2010

Who knew that Korn would try to revisit the darkness from their past heard on the self-titled and Life Is Peachy albums? Not me, though I had some hopes after the tread of experimenting with different sounds which ended with the extremely disappointing Untitled release. I'm all for bands trying new things they hadn't done before: See On You The Other Side was decent at best, but Untitled was just boring for me. Korn III - Remember Who You Are sees the band reuniting with Ross Robinson (Norma Jean, The Cure, Slipknot) to revisit the ugliness that permeated the first two albums. Jonathon Davis clearly has some demons he's confronting, and you feel as well as hear it in the music. Ross Robinson may be known for working with a lot of nu-metal bands, but I see him as a producer who pushes the musicians he produces (even at times to the point of tears) to get a great performance. Many may see this as Korn regressing or not maturing, but this is totally the opposite. It's definitely mature as it's not a copy of the self-titled or Life Is Peachy albums. Korn III sounds like a follow-up to those albums without sounding like a clone. This is them back to their roots.
As it is the band's first album on Roadrunner Records, there is also a special edition available for those that appreciate extras. 3 bonus tracks are included. The studio cuts are cool, but probably my favorite is the live version of "Blind," which features an extended ending with blast beats which you have to hear to believe. The bonus dvd includes in-studio performances of all 11 songs from the album. For the right price, this edition is worth it. Do pick it up.
