First released in 1998 · Album: Follow the Leader
Freak on a Leash appeared on Korn’s third album, Follow the Leader, in 1998. Its wider single and video campaign followed in 1999, so the album recording’s release year and the single’s chart year should not be confused.
Jonathan Davis moves from a comparatively restrained melody to sharply rhythmic, wordless vocal sounds. Low guitar figures and a prominent bass part give those changes a physical weight, while quieter passages make the return of the full band more pronounced.
For another recording from Follow the Leader, play Got the Life. Then explore Blind and the Korn catalogue to compare the band’s earlier and later work.
