Follow the Leader is a paradox. It’s Korn’s most accessible record (“Got the Life,” “Freak on a Leash”) and their most unhinged.

Follow the Leader is the third studio album by American nu-metal pioneers Korn, released on August 18, 1998, through Immortal and Epic Records Korn - Follow The Leader -1998- -FLAC- 88
