    This is clearly the worst Korn album ever made and actually the worst piece of music to ever be composed and heard by the masses. Because of Head departure from the band in 2004 they didn't knew what to do at all. This tells us one important thing about the band... before "See You" most of the music was written by a meth-induced Head, who had a clear vision of what he wants to achieve.This is clearly the worst Korn album ever made and actually the worst piece of music to ever be composed and heard by the masses.

When he left, the band didn't knew what to do with themselves so they hired a bunch of sh*** pop producers and the outcome is See You On The Wrong Side Of The Field. This album is as bad as nazists. There's not a single song on this record that's even remotely fun... even b-sides (and there's at least 7 of them) are garbage. This album is a proof that we're living in the darkest timeline. Do not listen to this, do not buy this, do not think about this. Just carry on with your life and when you'll have kids you can scare them about the tale of a bad album... this album.

    A healthy dose of progression and a touch of pop actually help the band get back in touch with their heavier side. The results are some of their darkest material that's brimming with energy and excitement. It's without a doubt one of Korn's most focused on refined albums. The results are nothing short of excellent.

    No doubt the discerning metal fan picked up on that bit I said about the hint of pop running through this album and may be ready to turn away from this Korn album. To do so would be a mistake. While the production group known as "The Matrix" was involved in the production of this album, this still manages to be some of Korn's heaviest and darkest material. A big shock given that The Matrix is known for working with the likes of Britney Spears and Shakira. Their pop influence does shine through in the music, but not enough to turn off metal fans.

    This is actually one of Korn's best albums. They've lost none of their lyrical edge and don't really stray far from their roots at all. They've just polished up their sound for something a little more far reaching in the metal/hard rock community. They managed to do so without selling out and screwing over their longtime fans. That's darn impressive. Even better, they made an incredible album because of it.

    This album is exactly what the band needed, a freakin shot in the arm! This is what all the great bands do, evolve and stay relevant. The best way to listen to these songs is definitely live, they are amazing. If not live, through good headphones is the next best.

A suggestion for the next album would be to let Munky turn off distortion and some of the other pedals and rip out a solo every once in a while. This album, however, is complete without it. Including the B-sides really enchances the quality of the album, but you'd have to go out of your way to get them. Definitely buy the limited edition with the bonus disc.… Expand

    i was a huge fan, but i'm totally dissapointed...i don't know why'd they listen to anyone and start to writing about shit...WHAT THE HELL WAS WRONGWITH THEIR LYRICS TILL NOW?!?!!?!?! i will never know... making albums like this one, compared to the previous, is surely a good way to loose fans

    The CD was a change from the norm... I havn't decided weither it was for the best or worst. I'm reviewing it for a school newspaper, but am not sure even what to say! Twisted Transistor, was good, but had REALLY LONG INTRO! I think that a majority of the songs were better, but there were some I didn't like, (Hypocrites). Will comment when I figure out what else I want to say.

    Not like any other album, but this was definitely a good one. Not my favorite but deserves respect for going on after losing Head.

    These guys take heavy metal to a whole new level. They've set the bar extremely high! I mean, look how popular they are. A 10 is a fair grade. However dont get the edited version. TOO MANY CENCORS... Brothers and Sisters, rejoice! The album worth worshipping is finally here! Now bow down, before I pop a cap in your skull.

    Korn has definitely branched out on this album. So many different sounds yet there's no mistaking it's Korn. Love Song and Tearjerker have a dark, melodic feel to them. Hypocrites and Liar may have a message for a certain someone? Maybe. Coming Undone has great rhythm to it. The songs are all incredible.

    i think this album is superb. it's about time that they started going in a new direction. obviously i will always love their old stuff, but this album is simply awsome. i would say overall the album is korn mixed with a newish pink floyd/ nin style throwing in a dash of morphine on some tracks

    This is a great album. Whether or not the songs were written by Korn or some producer they are great. Like untouchables, this is a highly produced studio album that is nonetheless gaining rave reviews. The only bad reviews are coming from sick kids who will never be satisfied with any post-life is peachy korn or indie loving critics who have hated korn from the beginning.

    This is a very good album as it has every thing. only 2 songs didnt appeal to me instantly but now they are growing on me every time i hear them. the last song tearjerker is one of the best korn songs ever. And also the artwork for the cd is just soo good check it out

    Out go's the heavy moody grunge that we all grew to love, in comes the happy clapping slow riffs. I dont like korns new evolution of heavy, and its more like evolution to the pop world. Only the first three tracks are good, but still without ultimate bass that everyone wanted. I'd recomend buying disturbed or static x's newest album, but definetely not this headache of an album.

    While I doubt anyone is going to give Korn the praise that they rightly deserve, I am now convinced that they have it within themselves to evolve and become something more than what they once were. In the beginning it was all about power chords and deep, heavy bass lamented with growls and odd sounds coming from the vocal cords of Jon Davis. Since then, we've seen them rise to great While I doubt anyone is going to give Korn the praise that they rightly deserve, I am now convinced that they have it within themselves to evolve and become something more than what they once were. In the beginning it was all about power chords and deep, heavy bass lamented with growls and odd sounds coming from the vocal cords of Jon Davis. Since then, we've seen them rise to great heights (Life is Peachy, Follow the Leader), and fall to new lows (Untouchables, anyone?). However, I believe that after a period of complacency, they have finally returned to the music foray with something intelligent, sonically heavy, and overall a worthy addition to any hard rock, nu-metal, or industrial library. See You on the Other Side, while still having a few defects, is easily the best Korn album of the 21st century.… Expand

    When i saw Twisted Transister on MTV, i knew this album would be good and i was right. Its better that untouchables and take a look in the mirror bt nt as good as the earlier ones. Wheres the screaming and pain. I like tear jerker only becuase i always wanted a slow song from korn and thats what i got. :)

    If rap-metal were ever meant to evolve, See You on the Other Side is the record that does it.

    Its center becomes weighed down with bland mid-tempo numbers and the final song detracts from the powerhouse close the record might have had.

    For the most part, the producers simply add audio garnishing to Korn's signature sound via loops and Pro Tools trickery. [10 Dec 2005]
