#4. Korn – Freak on a Leash
Well Well Well! He has risen from the depths of New Jersey from Manchester(his new kingdom) from months and months of being MIA, and has given an order to the brigade to listen to his request for “Freak on a Leash “by Korn. I was starting to think maybe he had been overthrown in Manchester but no, he is back , at least this week and he lands on the Top 5 for the first time at #4. Korn, one of the pioneers of the nu-metal genre, made a significant impact on the music scene with their groundbreaking sound and deeply introspective lyrics. Among their extensive catalog, “Freak on a Leash” stands out as a defining anthem that encapsulates the band’s signature blend of aggression, vulnerability, and social commentary. Released as a single from their 1998 album “Follow the Leader,” this song remains a cornerstone of Korn’s discography, showcasing their ability to confront personal demons while addressing broader societal issues. Great Job your Majesty! Salute!
