To note this was the last Korn album to feature Silveria, who left the crew in 2006. Said project featured the participation of founding band members: Korn is a musical act, hailing from Bakersfield, California, which predominantly falls into a musical genre known as nu metal. With their debut self-titled album coming out in 1994, this track is from their seventh full-length, which is entitled “See You on the Other Side” (2005). Or postulating even further, considering that the music video features some hardcore rappers, perhaps the “twisted”, ‘devilish’ type of music that the vocalist is indirectly referring to would not only be hard rock but also gangsta rap and other genres that have a devious edge to them. In other words, in terms of finding relief from the world, the subject seems to have a particular affinity for rock music. We have all perhaps had moments in our lives when we’ve felt that way, though this featured case is obviously more serious than just a casual depression.Īnd apparently the reason the radio is being referred to as a “twisted transistor” is because, all lyrics considered, it appears to be playing something like the type of hard rock which the audio and Korn themselves embody. Power of MusicĪnd again, all of this is meant to serve as Korn’s roundabout ode to the power of music. Based on their afore-noted explanation of the tune, some people are in such a deep state of loneliness that nothing is able to get through to them, with the exception of their favorite music. Indeed as presented in the second verse, this is a person who has come to realize that “the world ain’t fair” and is also apparently suffering from a lonely type of depression. And as further revealed, “no one understands” what she is going through. Well that is no one but the music, which serves the purpose of mitigating the aforementioned internal discomfort she is experiencing. The said subject would apparently be a young lady, someone whom the vocalist refers to as the “devil’s littler sister”. She is not a specific person but, given the explanation of this song as provided by Jonathan Davis, a personification. And what she represents is one of those kinds of people who only finds relief in life through music. And in the case of this song, the one which the subject is reliant on is also of such a variety.

So for instance your car radio is actually a transistor radio.
