Which band fostered the nu metal genre? That would be Korn, hands down! This may not be true for the band members themselves, but this is how their supporting public views them.

But things have not been going that well for Korn. There have been talks of Korn splitting because of the loss of their drummer, David Silveria. Despite the truth of Silveria leaving the band to take an indefinite break, vocals Jonathan Davis is adamant about the band not splitting. Davis further explains that a filler drummer will be hired until Silveria feels fit enough to come back to the band.

You may also have noticed the seeming hiatus the band has undertaken. Korn had taken too much time in recording their latest album "Untouchables" back in 2002. And to this day, we have yet to look out for another album. When "Untouchables" was finally released, quite a number of their fans had already resorted to listening to other bands. What's ironic for Korn is that their fans were now listening to bands that they have been an inspiration to.

Nevertheless, it's always better to look at the brighter side of things. This is certainly what any true-blooded Korn fan would prefer to do any day! With Korn's success over the years, many people still opt to buy their albums. And with the fast-paced technology of the Internet, it's not that hard to keep Korn aflame in the music industry. Fans will surely be listening to their tracks for years to come.

Music websites around the world feature a lot of free Korn mp3 downloads from all of the albums that they've made. A popular track of theirs is Play Me - Korn featuring Nas. The Play Me - Korn featuring Nas track is clearly an example of how Korn can masterfully incorporate different musical genres into one fantastic track. The rapper Nas was also quite in touch with Korn's music style when making this track. Jonathan Davis has always been known to give off barking sounds vital to their particular mix. Nas counters this with strong raps of his own. When combined, this gives a rejuvenating track that matches the Korn we love best. In fact, Play Me - Korn featuring Nas is one of the most favorite songs of Korn fans.

The media frenzy on Korn does not stop there. Korn fans will certainly be pleased that sites are offering Korn forsaken queen of the damned mp3 downloads for free. Korn fans can relive the full Korn music videos of the song "Forsaken" featured in the movie "Queen of The Damned". An interesting note to this korn forsaken queen of the damned mp3 download is that Jonathan Davis' trademark barking sounds won't be heard on the film's original soundtrack. This is because the label that Davis is under stipulates that his voice should not come out on the track. Another singer had to be hired for Davis' parts, in the name of Jeff Scott Soto. The movie "Queen of The Damned" stars the late Aaliyah and Stuart Townsend.

Fans have also uploaded Korn pictures 1 for all Korn fans worldwide. Snapshots of concerts held through different states across the country are up for grabs. As a tribute to the band, fans have made accessible full Korn music videos that were not accessible in the past. Just log on to any Korn fan website, and click to choose any video you want to see from the list of full Korn music videos.

And if that's not enough, there's always the rampant supply of Korn screensavers anywhere on the Internet. Even Windows XP logon screens Korn are available for anyone who has a personal computer. You can choose from any of the designs available. There are some Windows XP logon screens Korn of the band having concert performances. There are also some of the band plainly posing for the camera. Others are of the individual band members themselves. Best of all, they are all free and on the net for the taking.

So, despite the apparent hiatus Korn is taking, the band clearly has enough going for them in the meantime. But then again, anything can happen in the music business. The band may decide to clean up their act, or push through with the downward spiral they're taking currently. It's only a question of when.
