Issues, Korn's fourth studio album, came out on Immortal and Epic on November 16, 1999, with Brendan O'Brien producing, and it's the Bakersfield band cementing the nu metal sound they helped invent. Jonathan Davis wails, whispers and snarls over the grind of Munky and Head's guitars, while Fieldy's bass and David Silveria's drums keep everything lurching and heavy.

"Falling Away From Me" is the calling card, a creepy, coiled verse snapping into a crushing chorus, and "Make Me Bad" and "Somebody Someone" keep the tension cranked. Like Follow the Leader before it, Issues entered the Billboard 200 at number one, and the band spent 2000 hammering it home on the hugely successful Sick and Twisted Tour.
