The album's not realy dubstep!!!

I think in the infobox, Dubstep should not be included as a genre of the album as its been stated by Korn that the album will only have Dubstep/Electronic INFLUENCES, it's not an acutal Dubstep/Electro album. That would be like saying Follow the Leader is a rap album just because it had major Rap inlfluences. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Rmknot17 (talk • contribs) 08:49, 7 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Calm down, man! Frankly speaking, Follow The Leader doesn't have those MAJOR Rap influences. But in this case, as obvious from the two available songs (Get Up and Narcissistic Cannibal), the music is about 1/2 dubstep. So i think we should leave the dubstep tag

What??? "Follow the Leader doesn't have those MAJOR Rap influesnces" Ok what about Children of the Korn, All In the Family, Cameltosis; pretty much straigh rap. The intro to It's On and the beatbox breakdown in Freak On A Leash. Yeah, the MAJOR rap influences are definately there. But back on topic; have you heard the other new songs live; they sound nothing like dubstep, like there's very little dubstep in them, it's obvious they played it safe with Get Up! and Narcissistic Cannibal as it's obvious they put more dubstep in those songs cuz they're the "Singles". Like Jonathan Davis stated in the new interview "We didn't make a dubstep album; we made a Korn album". All I got to say. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.224.33.122 (talk) 07:55, 9 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Man, what are you talking about? Album is an album, and live performance is a live performance. I had no chance to hear those songs live, but ON THE ALBUM they are pretty much dubstep. Listen, I'm not some dubstep fan, i actually don't even know any good dubstep performer. But I think we should make it clear - the album is pretty much dubstep, and it's nothing wrong with it. And by the way, about John Davis' words - I think he rather meant the spirit of the album, and not style or genre. After all, screw this, let's wait until the album's release day and listen to it. Then we'll have more things to talk about — Preceding unsigned comment added by Bigsoft (talk • contribs) 08:41, 9 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, your rigt. We can only truly tell how much 'Dubstep' and how much 'Metal' the album will have when we actualy hear it. And I stand corrected; just because the songs sound more 'Metal' and 'Heavy' live doesn't mean that's how they sound on the album; they can change so much live. Sorry for my little rant. All in All; it's not realy fair for anyone to judge the album as a whole until they actualy hear it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.224.33.122 (talk) 07:09, 11 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Follow the Leader had ONE song that had a rap influence. Every song on The Path Of Totality is heavily dubstep. --24.23.143.90 (talk) 03:30, 5 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

It's not heavily dubstep, it has some dubstep influences like some of the drum patterns and the tempo, but other than that it has squelching mid-range wobbling synths which are used in electro house and drum & bass. BeŻet (talk) 10:25, 5 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Do you people actually understand what these genres represent? Drum n Bass, Electro House and Dubstep all have very different, very distinctive RHYTHMICAL structures (high speed, half time, four on the floor beat). Every single track on this album follows the halftime Dubstep structure - none of them even comes close to being Electro House or DnB. It is a Metal/Dubstep fusion album, and nothing more than that. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 31.205.10.212 (talk) 16:36, 7 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

It's not all about rhythmical structures and these drum patterns have been used in rock genres before without people calling them "dubstep". BeŻet (talk) 11:12, 12 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, in electronic music it IS all about the rhythmical structure. Sorry, but that's how electronic genres ARE defined. House/Trance/Techno - simple 4/4 kick four on the floor beat Drum 'n' Bass - 170-200 BPM, extremely fast and complex breakbeats Dubstep - halftime, halftime, halftime Nowhere on this album is there a second of music that is Electro House or DnB. The electronic half of this genre fusion with Metal is entirely Dubstep. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 31.205.10.212 (talk) 23:09, 12 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry sir, but you're not making sense. First you say it's all about the rhythmical structure and then you group several genres together and state that they use the same rhythmical structure. So you're just contradicting yourself and proving that it is NOT all about the rhythmical structure. BeŻet (talk) 11:42, 13 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

No, you're just misinterpreting me. I was listing the differences in the rhythmical structures between those genres. Read more carefully before responding next time. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 31.205.10.212 (talk) 02:50, 14 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I'm reading you very carefully and you are clearly saying "Yes, in electronic music it IS all about the rhythmical structure" (see above) and then grouping genres together by rhythmical structures (another quote of your's: "House/Trance/Techno - simple 4/4 kick four on the floor beat" - you've clearly grouped those genres together) so please think before responding next time. BeŻet (talk) 11:54, 14 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Way Too Far kind of confirmed as the third single!

Jonathan Davis recently told HardDrive radio that "He think's Way Too Far will the 3rd single from The Path of Totality." he adds "I hope it will be." The Band have also expressed their interest in the song and have all cited the song as their favorite from the album. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.224.33.122 (talk) 07:04, 11 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

If you can provide a reliable source, then it can be added. Ikkian|talk|contributions 00:50, 10 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Feed Me

Why was Feed Me changed to Jon Gooch? As Feed Me is his primary artist name for his productions in the dubstep, I think it might make more sense to use that moniker. Thoughts? Zayniac (talk) 23:57, 9 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The other artists don't show their real names, so it would be best to change "Jon Gooch" to "Feed Me", unless specified. Ikkian|talk|contributions 00:48, 10 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
