    Woof. There's a valiant effort here in attempting to resurrect the Korn sound of old, but every time they give you hope, Jonathan Davis opens his mouth, and ruins everything. The lyrics are the same tired, recycled, and remain to be exactly what you would expect from a nearly 50 year old man suffering from Peter Pan Syndrome. This album would be much more palatable with literally any otherWoof.

    Perhaps Korn's best album this century. [Oct 2019, p.89]

    Overall, The Nothing is a huge step back for the band. The Paradigm Shift and The Serenity of Suffering were far from perfect, but they rode a line that balanced a contemporary vision with their stapled characteristics. This tries dearly to be nostalgic yet fresh, but the finished product just comes across forced and derivative.

    Korn have always excelled at pain, but with The Nothing, this is the most authentic it's ever been.
