Korn frontman Jonathan Davis has a level-headed opinion on his own discography. Having released 14 albums over the last three decades, it's statistically impossible for there to not be at least couple clunkers in the mix, and Davis isn't egotistical enough to pretend otherwise. A few years back, the singer revealed what he feels is the weakest Korn album (as well as their greatest), and now he's named what he thinks is the worst song Korn have ever released.

In a new interview with Metal Hammer, Davis said that a track he regrets making is the song "All in the Family" from their massively successful 1998 LP, Follow the Leader. Although many people consider that to be Korn's best album, and it undoubtedly features many of the their greatest tracks, "All in the Family" is a weird outlier that features Davis and Limp Bizkit frontman Fred Durst having a juvenile rap battle with each other. Crucially, it was recorded while they were fucking wasted, and Davis isn't proud that it made it out of the booth that night. 

"'All In The Family' is the worst song ever," Davis said. "It's horrible. We were all drunk in the studio and I was trying to rap. At the time, we were having a good time, but now I just cringe. I've got nothing against Fred, it just sucks! We were out of our minds drunk! It shouldn't have made the record."

It's definitely not Korn at their best. If you haven't heard it, take a listen below and then cleanse your ears with literally any other track from Follow the Leader.
