KoRn's fourth album, Issues, was released on November 19th, 1999. To celebrate the release, KoRn performed the entire album live onstage at the Apollo Theatre, making KoRn the first rock band, and only the second predominately white musical act to play the Apollo. The show was simulcast on radio stations nationwide.
Issues was a very emotional album for singer/lyricist Jonathan Davis. He wrote about many personal matters, such as his infidelity ("Trash," "Make Me Bad"), his battle with drug addiction and alcoholism ("Let's Get This Party Started"), his own self-loathing ("Dead," "Dirty") and high tensions within the band ("Wake Up").
Issues debuted at #1 on Billboard's Top 200, and was later certified 3x Platinum. Three top-selling singles were released: "Falling Away From Me," "Make Me Bad" and "Somebody Someone."
So far as my personal opinion of Issues:
Best. KoRn. Album. EVER.
