    Album discussion: Korn - The Path of Totality
    Apr 10 2024

    Note: this episode starts off with some really bad audio quality for Tom. It does get better eventually, though. I tried everything I could to fix it but it's just what it is.

    Waiting until after all the eye-popping and rapturing of souls from the North American Eclipse has settled down, we're finally releasing our bonus episode on the discussion of Korn's experimental dub-step album, The Path of Totality. Tom and Jeremy just have a short discussion on the album and why it ever happened.
