Korn’s sound comes from detuned seven-string guitars, a percussive bass tone and Jonathan Davis’s unpredictable vocals. Hear the bass and drums from Freak on a Leash and the isolated vocals from Falling Away from Me.

What to listen for in Korn’s isolated tracks
- Fieldy’s bass tone. Isolated, the clicky, percussive bass sound is as much rhythm as pitch.
- Davis’s vocal textures. Whispers, scat passages and screams sit on separate layers in the vocal-only tracks.
