Oct 27, 2014This is one of my favorite Korn albums.....it is Alot better than "The Path Of Totality" . This album is Heavy, Groovy and its one of those albums that you can listen to a hundred times and never gets a dull moment!

Sep 24, 2015It took a second try, but Korn have bounced back into what made them so great in the 90s and 00s. Korn III was a fine album on its own, but The Paradigm Shift is the nu-metal pioneer's real return to form.

Jul 29, 2016I don't understand why Metacritic scores are so **** harsh. This is a good Korn album with some pretty great songs on it. I really enjoyed listening to it. 7.8/10 There are some flaws with it, but overall a good album. 3.8/5

Nov 13, 2013Unsure where the paradigm shift is. This album is essentially what you have come to expect from Korn. I would say that this album is maybe a little lighter than their older stuff, but it is still better than their dubstep album.

May 30, 2022It's been a long time between new(-ish!) Korn albums for me, and my oh my...their sound hasn't changed one iota (despite the album's title)! I'm sure this is reassuring for some, but I have to ask: how OLD are these guys by now? And how wealthy?
Here's hoping they find some serenity in their fifties! It can't be pleasant to be that miserable ALL the time...

Nov 4, 2013"Never Never" is a power ballad, and "Love & Meth" is not as funny as one might hope, though the brilliantly titled "Paranoid and Aroused" is.

UncutOct 31, 2013Essentially this is Korn returning to their familiar discomfort zone. [Dec 2013, p.70]

Kerrang!Oct 29, 2013This is a more organic effort. [28 Sep 2013, p.52]
