Kerrang! Magazine - August 15, 1998

SINGLE OF THE WEEK

Korn

Got the Life

(Immortal/Epic)

KKKKK

Wa-hey! And they're off. The up-tempo 'Got the Life' is the most accessible thing Korn have laid to rest since 'A.D.I.D.A.S.', kicking off with an unusual (for them) melodic guitar line. Then Jonathan Davis is off ranting in that beautifully schzoid manner, underpinned by a typically furious Fieldy bass line. Besides a riotious refrain, we also get a welcome dose of Davis' patended 'Bill and Ben The Flower Pot Men' �style Korn-babble. Marvelous stuff.

And the surprise is that the remixes are pretty good, too. The 'D.O.S.E. Woolyback' mix may have a fucking stupid name, but it kicks like no other re-run in living memory.
