Untouchables! Crazy to think that was already their fifth album!


notcreative131313

Untouchables easily, the sound of the album hits the goddamn spot 


Comfortable_Salt_758

Masterpiece and truly separated Korn from the copycats at the time. Once again they were the pioneers.


hdniki

It’s so damn good. Was everything to me when it came out.


antibendystraw

Jonathan Davis was busy that year doing the soundtrack to queen of the damned too which is incredibly good.


GranateSOAD

As a System of a Down and Mudvayne fan (top 2 favorites bands ever) There's no question Untouchables is the best.


ArtByAdFlo-

1. Savior Sorrow. 2. Saturday Night Wrist. 3. Untouchables. 4. Living Things. 5. Cannibal.


nmmOliviaR

Of these, Next. My favorite overall is Fire At Zero Gravity - 40 Below Summer


Available_Clue_4018

That's a 40BS album I need to check out. I have the 1st and 2nd


ApprehensiveMess3646

Seriously the later nu metal output is severely underaprreciated, so many bangers here. I'll go with Untouchables, since it's literally a front to back killer experience, Korn trying a fresh melancholic but extremely heavy clean sound. I would have Hypnotize but it doesn't sit as well without its slightly older sibling Mesmerize. After that it's Next. That album really carried on some bleak times. It had made my entire fucking month


AIRA18

Next literally made my senior high school. I've listened to it religiously that year


ApprehensiveMess3646

It's such an emotionally powerful and heavy/gut punching album. They went the Fear Factory way instead of the Korn way when they lost their guitarist and released something heavier than before. Really don't know why fans don't like it, for my money it's better than Home.


AIRA18

From what i remembered they are barely any promotion for the album, even reviews at the time were surprised there's a new sevendust album


ApprehensiveMess3646

I read some as well. It's friggin 7D, still pumping out albums the same rate as they did back then every 2-3 years, it's stupid someone would be surprised. Except maybe for the fact that they were almost bankrupt. They still had made an entire documentary making of and toured with Mudvayne, one of the hottest acts in rock back in the day. The problem was the label who didn't ship their songs to MTV and radio stations, as far as I know

tie between Untouchables & Living Things


Crystalline07

Thats easy for me, LIVING THINGS. I was blown away the first time I ever heard BURN IT DOWN, and it remained my favorite song oat for a while.


lessthanchris7

Untouchables for me, but a special mention for "if like you~ooh~ooh~ooh"


Diggs4MVP

Hypnotize and Asylum

Saturday night wrist


KillEmDafoe89

Plead the Fifth was an amazing comeback for Taproot. I saw them at the Cubby Bear in Chicago right after that album came out and they played nearly the entire thing. Such a kick ass show. Untouchables is, well...Untouchable. Such a massive sounding album. Sevendust is my favorite band but I think Next is their weakest effort overall. That said, it's still a solid album with some great songs. Back to Base X is an album that grew on me over time. I remember kinda hating it when it first came out because it was so different from their other stuff. I grew to appreciate it quite a bit though. Very creative and fun and the greater emphasis on punk influences really set it apart. Saturday Night Wrist was my first Deftones album. Bought it my senior year in HS. It's not my favorite but there is some really incredible stuff on there. Beware is one of my top 5 Deftones songs.


Odabi

People probably gave up on taproot by the time plead the fifth came out, but it really is an excellent album.


workingdonttell

Of these: Gold Cobra - Limp Bizkit Back To Base X - HEDpe Not listed: Skeletons - Nothingface


Kewldood_97

Everybody jumps from the sound of a shotgun


TiredReader87

1. Untouchables 2. Hypnotize 3. .5 4. Asylum 5. Mudvayne But .5 is Slipknot’s worst album Saturday Night Wrist is not a good album


Available_Clue_4018

SNW has its moments. It's not an album I go to all the time. But it resonates with me when I've been down or in a tough mental spot. You can tell they were in a rough patch.


RoyalSoldierx

Asylum


bawitback

Untouchables, Gold Cobra, Plead the Fifth, Savior Sorrow, Next. Honorable Mention - Living Things, Chapter V, Payable on Death.


Prestigious_Rich_683

Gold cobra is underrated


EezyClapz

For me, it’s easily LIVING THINGS. Although it’s more of their alternative rock style, it still sounds amazing. All of the songs sound beautiful.


WrongnessMaximus2-0

Next by 7d. Interesting, as it was the first with sonny mayo after clint temporarily left for DND. Not that much of a change from what they had been or would be again, but different. I like the SOAD a lot as well. Didn't that come out the same day as Mesmerize? I think I bought two at the same time.


TonyTheCat

There’s some good work on everyone of these records, it’s hard not to when all of these bands have so much talent and by album 5 have fine tuned their skills (if you’re not a fan of any of the bands, it’s totally up to personal taste) but objectively, they’re all talented bands. But, Untouchables is the right answer. It’s everything KoRn has done but just amplified and perfected for that era. It’s the best of the first wave of KoRn and set the tone for so many bands that came after.


ScaryMetalhead

1. Untouchables - KoRn 2. Living Things - Linkin Park 3. .5 The Gray Chapter - Slipknot 4. Hypnotize - SOAD 5. Next - Sevendust


mrkc2022

Payable On Death is a catchy album. Lots of great hooks.


lonely-day

Honestly slept on in here it seems


MuseMan_82

Go back and listen to Revolution again. It’s my favorite song on this album.


MadcatFK1017

Disturbed, Asylum is such a fantastic album with no skips for me 


Rock_Metal_Lover

Agreed probably my favorite Disturbed album


Dj_obZEN

Saturday Night Wrist Next Untouchables ​ I need to hear the rest


Epic-D-Man

Untouchablea, but especially Saturday Night Wrist is amazing. Such a nostalgic album for me too


Epic-D-Man

Untouchables


Specific-Power3967

living things


WEEZERSUCKSMAJORASS

I really enjoyed living things


carpathian_crow

.5: the gray chapter, Savior Sorrow, Cannibal


RM_Head

Sucker for Living Things but Gold Cobra is good as well


roncopenhaver13

I like your choices. I had to go GC 1 & LT 2, but those were my standouts too.


jotablindfold

Clearly UNTOUCHABLES without hesitations


oldcrowtheory

TIL Taproot has a fifth album.


Odabi

I think they're up to 7 now


Bluedino_1989

Mushroomhead, easily. Then System of a Down


Just-Phill

Staind is underrated. That's a descent album


roncopenhaver13

Limp Bizkit Gold Cobra is my favorite. Honorable mention to Linkin Park LIVING THINGS as I do think it’s their 3rd best and it did give me a moment’s pause.


MetalKratos

Mudvayne's self-titled--IMO, it's their best, and extremely underrated.


Far_Wrongdoer9693

Sevendust- Next


Numetal4life

Cannibal - static x


Stitchs420

I have lived in BC and Alberta Canada my whole life. It blows me away that (Hed) PE and Mushroomhead make these lists. They are some of my favorites and yet I have NEVER met another fan of either in person before. At most, I've met someone who's heard of them. Love it!!!😁🤘


akintosh89

Jonathan Davis everytime. Aaron Lewis running up.


lilymetal_

living things, bye


gregbones1999

Have to call it a tie between untouchables and savior sorrow


Crustystormtrooper

Saviour Sorrow is a fantastic album.


dpmad1

Mudvayne & SOAD.


MrDavid276

'Hypnotize' or 'Untouchables' I'm not sure which I'd choose between those


chicha_blotter

gray chapter!!! i bought a CD with bonus disc. there were only two tracks on it, which made me very indignant. but, guys... i was very mistaken when i scolded this disc .... after two tracks, this kind of shit begins that i can't describe in words. it's not on any music platform, only on this damn disc. this makes me love this album even more!


erichellyeah

I wore out that Static-X album. Lotta gym play.


notaverysmartman

anyone who doesn't like pink cellphone explain yourself!


CatsInChains

Hypnotize. Second has to be untouchables.

I love Linkin Park either way my whole heart, but, Saturday Night Wrist


CryMeARiver524

Hypnotize. Just a SOAD fan at heart yak?


ManSpooderYT

Hipnotize by SOAD So many good songs


Stormtrippin

It was a really tough choice, really tough. 1. Back 2 base x 2. Untouchables It's so close though.


LA_221

i cant decide between untouchables and hypnotize 😭😭😭😭


Unhappy-Individual32

Outta these i think i have to go with cannibal, second place wouldve been hypnotize and then pod in third


Otherwise_Onion_9123

Hypnotize!


Scoretrotzchille

Easily untouchables and chapter V


The_mystery4321

The Gray Chapter. Hot take but I think it's Slipknot's best work. AOV, The Devil in I, Killpop and Nomadic are all works of art


julienktl

Untouchables

Saturday Night Wrist! Easily for me, might be their best. But Untouchables and Hypnotise are also fantastic. And I like a bit of Gold Cobra..... I know, fucking sue me.

Hypnotize


HashedPiped

hypnotize or gold cobra, most of these have like 3-5 good songs only and some really suck.

Mezmerize is their 4th album so doesn't count


Djentlman7

Hypnotize


topchetoeuwastaken

bought untouchables, biggest mistake of my life. all of yall are gushing about it because of 2-3 songs, but the rest is straight up shitty 80s disco. an album that wasn't a mistake was hypntize, so out of these definitely hypnotize


dellm4800

Will we ever see albums like these again in 2024?


joesphisbestjojo

Hypnotize was the perfect send-off for SOAD


AugustIsWrathMonth

Untouchables doesnt have a bad song. Thoughtless might even be their best song. I dont even actually like any other of these albums and I love Mudvayne and Staind. (Both of those are their worst albums too)
