I've said in the Dark Funeral thread that i'd chose Korn over Dark Funeral any day, and since pyro suggested it would be a great idea to see how many people share my opinion, i created this poll.

so, vote. and try to comment your decision.

My vote goes for Korn, simply because unlike Dark Funeral they actually made music, pioneered a genre, and stayed original for all those years.



READ THIS FIRST


i'm not asking which of these bands you like. personally i don't like neither, i don't listen nor to Korn nor to Dark Funeral. i don't care what you like. i made this thread to see how many people PREFER Dark funeral over Korn or vice-versa. if you had (and you have if you visit this thread) to pick one over the other, which one would you pick? the gay option meant to be a joke, so far a lot of you fell for it.

if it's confusing then don't vote and most definitely don't post.

Poll

Well?

Dark Funeral
78
Korn
53
I'm gay.
28

Total votes: 159

I chose Korn. I think I've heard three albums by both of these bands and in Dark Funeral's case I can only vaguely remember one or two ok songs and the rest were boring as hell. Korn is just infinitely more versatile and interesting in comparison. Simply put: they're better in pretty much every possible way IMO.

Im gonna have to choose Dark Funeral because first of all Korn isnt even metal so its really not a big comparison. You should have compared Dark Funeral with Burzum or Bathory or something.

Agree... DF is just Boring... Korn at least can make albums that sounds different and fresh.

You can comnpare them in some way: Originality... something that DF lacks a lot.

and about the results, i'm not surprised at all. I would have been surprised if DF would be winning the poll.


Yeah - amongst the younger generation who grew up with Korn - who are the very 'newbies' you said were madly in love with Dark Funeral! So it kind of pisses on your original point, really...


i was talking about newbies in the black metal scene. i figured that not only black metallers come to this thread. that's why i am expecting Korn to win.

you chose DF because Korn aren't metal? this isn't about the most metal band or something. it's just a simple question to see which band is better, according to msers.

What do you mean first of all? You only gave one argument and even that fails. I don't think it can be denied that they play alternative, nu and even some industrial metal.

I voted for Dark Funeral because I find them more interesting than Korn. I like their lyrics better and I'm not a fan of nu metal.

I'd rather say Deftones "pioneered a genre" instead of KoЯn. Oh, and they were formed way earlier (1988)

i was comparing them to Dark Funeral. but i guess every band can be called a pioneer compared to them, lol

ps, Korn's debut was released in 94, whereas Deftones' exactly a year after. Korn's self titled album launched nu-metal.

I see it pointless, Korn is an awesome band who was one of the first bands I've listened to. Dark funeral was my second black metal band I heard, so I never found them repetitive.
Again, pointless.

You have to read the first comment to get why Damnated did a poll...

It's hard to compare them... but when it comes to originality Korn kick the shit out of DF

everything can be compared, because every opinion is subjective. every choice is subjective.

The point is that there are a lot of people that don't think that Korn is so bad and thinks that DF sucks with the same reason.. the lack of Originality [
the band... sucks bad time.. totally boring]

I voted for Korn, because I find their music more varied, enjoyable and creative. Something that stands out from the other nu metal bands, whereas Dark Funeral is your average black metal band with nothing new to bring to the genre.
