    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 This album is exactly what the band needed, a freakin shot in the arm!

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

    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. Amazing guitar work from Munky, David's best drumming yet, Korn has definitely branched out on this album. So many different sounds yet there's no mistaking it's Korn.

Amazing guitar work from Munky, David's best drumming yet, Fieldy's bass is sounding better than ever, and Jonathan's voice is still as hard as ever. I highly recommend adding this album to your collection!… Expand

    This is the best album Korn have made to date and an unexpected comeback for them. Everything about this album is perfection of their style. Excellent.

    one band member less, a fusion of early anger and newmelodics,and munky keeping it together. if the fans like it so what? bands are allowed to develop and progress their sound,who cares what the critics think,i dont think korn intended to make a commercial album .they should be respected as a band but this is just my opinion,everyone alowed one.also i bet korn are making more money than one band member less, a fusion of early anger and newmelodics,and munky keeping it together. if the fans like it so what? bands are allowed to develop and progress their sound,who cares what the critics think,i dont think korn intended to make a commercial album .they should be respected as a band but this is just my opinion,everyone alowed one.also i bet korn are making more money than the critics and they are jealous! korn are the best thing to hav happened to the music scene since sliced bread...they deserve credit for still sticking together for so many years.and all korn fans who appreciate their music and accept thy can't write another issues or 'korn' will love the album.so listen to it more than once people along with the rest of the albums so you can make a valid judgement.korn fan over and out!… Expand

    Surprisingly strong effort considering that they lost their guitarist who wrote so much of their music and how far into their career the band is. This is far more engaging than the last album and one of the best heavy albums I've heard in some time.

    This album is better than any album they've put out since the self-titled debut. All the tracks on this cd are just plain addictive. I can't stop listening to this so-called new direction and reinvention of KoRn.

    Heavy and groovy songs. Jonathan wrote more political stuff in this album and some pornography but I still love the album one of my favs. The songs were more creepier like the beginning of the songs, there were whispers and growls I don't know things like that and still fits in KoRn.

    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.

    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.

    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. :)

    One of the greatest albums of 2005. Thank god for Korn, what would we do without them. Almost every single song on the album is amazing, with the exception of "10 or a 2-way". Songs like "Souvenir", "For No One", "Open Up", and "Tearjerker" are amazing in every aspect of the word. They are evolving in the right direction and I love them for it.

    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]
