Korn "Freak On a Leash"
Korn rides a peculiar line between being quite mainstream while still being fun and weird.
The band's third album was an overnight commercial success, ushering in the age of nu metal, a blend of rap and metal., which would include bands like Limp Bizkit and Slipknot.
"Freak On a Leash" would see extremely high rotation on MTV, which helped fashion the pseudo-genre by elevating bands that otherwise languished on college radio.
The video got art direction from Todd McFarlane, who was best known for drawing comic series like Spider-Man, Spawn, and Incredible Hulk. It also won a Grammy.
