Has anyone considered how much the lyrics affect the music? Perhaps Morello and the boys were writing pissed off sounding music to support De La Rocha's hostility, while they've mellowed out to reflect Cornell's more introspective lyrics?
Exactly. I liked RATM a lot more when I was 18. I liked Korn too, but I dont have the stomach for them anymore. How many times can you hear a song about someone's messed up childhood? Bands are made of people and people change with age. Look at Metallica, now they have changed. It must be awkward to be a band like Korn who keeps pumping out the same stuff just to keep their fans... what they dont realize is, that after 5-6 years, the fans are changing too. I really like when a band changes as I change...
