System of a Down vs. Korn – 2013 Loudwire Rock Bowl, Round 1

There is such a thing as too much adrenaline pumping and this 2013 Loudwire Rock Bowl pairing will definitely hype you up. We’ve got the frenetic and somewhat schizophrenic System of a Down favorite ‘Psycho’ squaring off against Korn ‘s monstrous rocker ‘Freak on a Leash.’ In this fast-paced, need-it-now world there’s probably no shortage of football players that can identify with the “ psycho, groupie, cocaine, crazy ” world that Serj Tankian sings about in the band’s ‘Toxicity’ album favorite ‘Psycho.’ Regardless of the lyrical content, the speedy rocker has plenty of energy to spare.
