‍

The song title A.D.I.D.A.S. is a backronym for “All Day I Dream About Sex” and referred indirectly to the adidas brand, actually a running gag in the sports shop where singer Jonathan Davis worked in Korn's early days.

‍

The track is from their second studio album “Life Is Peachy” from 1996 and we have linked to the music video below.

‍

Korn is a nu metal band from Bakersfield, California, formed in 1993. They are known as one of the pioneering bands of the nu metal genre and have significantly contributed to its popularity in the late 1990s and early 2000s.

‍

The original line-up included Jonathan Davis on the mic, guitarists James “Munky” Shaffer and Brian “Head” Welch, bassist Reginald “Fieldy” Arvizu and drummer David Silveria.

‍

Although there have been some changes in the band line-up over the years, Munky, Fieldy, Head and Jonathan always remained the mainstays.

‍

‍

Korn's musical style combines aggressive notes from the heavy metal genre with elements of hip-hop and industrial. Her texts, often obscure and introspective, address topics such as childhood trauma, anxiety, and isolation.

The self-titled debut album “Korn”, which was released in 1994, quickly earned the band recognition in the rock world.

‍

However, it was their third album, “Follow the Leader”, released in 1998, which made them superstars with hits such as “Freak on a Leash” and “Got the Life.”

‍

Through her unique style and powerful performances, Korn has not only won several platinum albums and awards, but has also influenced an entire generation of musicians.
