Fascinating article, I would have never imagined a mosh pit could trigger smartwatch/smartphone emergency service alerts.
As a side note, when was the last big hit by Korn? I feel like it’s been at least 20 years.
Korn has new music out now and the bits I’ve heard are good. I can’t really think of any big rock/metal hits by anyone for some time now.
I thought I don’t know any modern rock/metal hits because I stopped listening popular music around 2005 or so. I guess my assumption was wrong.
But I also think 90s and early 2000s were probably the peak for the American music industry in terms revenue as share of cultural spend and in broader significance.
That being said it was a different time, I think there are less “hits” in terms of broad listening these days in general.
