"Thoughtless" was the second single from Untouchables, Korn's fifth album, released in 2002, and it's the band's nu metal turned up to maximum claustrophobia. Michael Beinhorn produced, Frank Filipetti recorded and Andy Wallace mixed, and the result is thick, down-tuned and brutally clean, the groove lurching between a coiled crawl and an all-out eruption.

Fans first heard it live on June 10, 2002, at a show at New York's Hammerstein Ballroom to celebrate the album's release, a performance later released on the Live DVD. It peaked at No. 6 on Billboard's Mainstream Rock chart and reached No. 37 in the UK. The band dropped it from their shows after a year, then brought it back in a medley in 2006 and played it in full on that year's Family Values Tour.
