Omffggg I been looking for this song for nearly the entirety of my life, I heard it once when I was 5-6, I'm 19 now and stumbled upon it, I feel I've been liberated I was starting to think I made it up and was about to record it. . .
Korn is on some next level stuff. The sick, distorted and funky yet kickass style of the bassist is what always brings their songs together for me. It’s like the very soul of their music in a way.
This was the first song from Korn I ever heard. This song was my childhood. Korn as a band is my whole childhood music interest wise. I still can't believe how much their music changed my musical taste. They were pioneers. No doubt about it. And they still are around today. That's the crazy part.

Of course it's Korn. Korn is Here To Stay. Their music was ahead of it's time since they first came out on the scene in 1993. Korn made a lot of people happy, and pissed off some too during the early 90s by basically creating their own genre of music called Nu Metal.
It is Joey in the video, the description's bullshit, David left Korn before this album was recorded. But it's not actually Joey playing on the song, it's Brooks Wackerman, Joey was just their touring drummer at the time so they used him in the video.

This song is heavily underrated. It’s a very good track.

You are speaking facts
TIMMYYYYY!!!
i think too, i see it Day by Day and feel it .....
Been happening longer than that. At least ten years. And the movie Idiocracy is basically the documentary. Lol
Agreed 100%
This must be the "Return to monke" theme song.
It's the "return to monke but angry" song
The Anarcho-Primitivism anthem, reject humanity bros
It's actually the ban miscegenation song
let's be honest, if this song was released today it would be even more popular than is actually
All for the wrong reasons. This generation is doomed, wrong things are beginning to be normalized, etc.
So basically, this song aged well.

yeah same lol
I'm coming back. One of my favourite song
Yep when this came out i had no real comprehension of the theme and this song just randomly popped into my head
Yo same
me too
I felt so rebel and political listening to this when I was 12, little did I know how things would only get worst.
so true lol
Listen to leftover crack if you like political stuff
Look up 'vabbing'...
Smh
This song came out 15 years ago, and we shouldn't be offended by the lyrics, we should be offended by how horrifically accurate they've become.

Lyrics
I diggin' with my fingertips
I'm gripping at the ground I stand upon
I'm searching for fragile bones
Evolution
I'm never gonna be refined
Keep trying but I won't assimilate
Should we have come far in time
Watch the ground break
And I'm sorry that I don't believe
By the evidence that I see
That there's any hope left for me
It's evolution
Just evolution
And I, I do not dare deny
The basic beast inside
It's right here, it's controlling my mind
And why do I deserve to die?
I'm dominated by
This animal that's locked up inside
Close up to get a real good view
I'm betting that the species will survive
Hold tight, I'm getting inside you
Evolution
And when were gonna find these bones
They're gonna wanna keep them in a jar
The number one virus caused by
Procreation
And the planet may go astray
In a million years I say
Those motherfuckers were all deranged
It's evolution
Just evolution
And I, I do not dare deny
The basic beast inside
It's right here, it's controlling my mind
And why do I deserve to die?
I'm dominated by
This animal that's locked up inside
Take a look around
Nothing much has changed
Take a look around
Nothing much has changed
Take a look around
Take a look around
Take a look around (nothing much has changed)
Take a look around
Take a look around (nothing much has changed)
Take a look around
Take a look around (nothing much has changed)
Take a look around
I, I do not dare deny
The basic beast inside
It's right here, it's controlling my mind
And why do I deserve to die?
I'm dominated by
This animal that's locked up inside
Why?
Why do I deserve to die?
This lyrics yes is evolution!!!
Sure we have come far in time
Watch the bough break***
It is! That's Joey Jordison! Oh my God! He's so fucking awesome.
I can't stop listening to this song. For a whole week
the best korn song
More and more relevant year by year since the track was released.
This was one of my favorite songs when I was 11. I grew up on Korn and Rage Against the machine and now my dad wants to know why I’m in my late 20s still wanting to burn down everything.
Imo, still one of the best songs they've ever made. And the video itself is one of the best I've seen when it comes to music videos in general.
I personally dont think its one of the best music vids
Even tho it has its charm and is definetly not bad
But i just cant put it on a lvl with music videos like From the songs cold by korn or I dimentia by whitechapel
This song was released just on time.
When new technology came out every day
when people became drastically dumber than a monkey
and super greedy. I used to play this track every day !🎵🎶
Still do!
hence chatgpt, let the AI do all the thinking for you.
Came here for other reason and just learn about Jordison death. So sad 😞
1:02 has to be one of my favourite parts of any music video. Those comparisons are so spot-on.
14 years later, still great!

It's scary. I've played this song a few times over, and not once have I had any commercial ads!
i remember listening to this when i was about 10 years or so.. goes even harder now!
Любимый KoЯn с любимым Джоуи на ударных. Все самое лучшее собрано в одном месте.❤️
hahaha, i was laughing so hard on the george bush part.
XxXMattXxXRSK same here
It was a time in which comparing the president as a monkey wasn’t considered racist but funny.
" Hard times make strong men. Strong men make good times. Good times make weak men. Weak men make bad times."
Korn tends to produce cool, original videos. This is one of them.
Кайф!🔥👏👏👏🤗🥰🤘🙌
Im surprised this didnt even reach 15 million views. This song is badass.
Yes, very big swag
joey was here !
rest in peace king !💛💔💔💔😞😞😞
A song that’s ahead of its time.
Excellent portrayal of the modern society
Korn Evolution was way ahead of it's time.
Its the first song from that band and its my favorite 🎸🎸🤘🤘
this band and song rocks its one of my favorite bands in the world korn rocks and i bet theyll keep on rockin' 4 years ultimate dominate band!
Wow that's the oldest comments i have ever seen on TH-cam .. You are amazing.
this song becoming more true by the year
This song is still my favorite. Here we are 17 Years later still ringing true!
2:46 Fucking love that head movement.
One of the best music Videos I ever saw..
And the Song is also fantastic..
I Love KoRn
This is by far my favorite song by korn
Muito a frente do seu tempo.
Yep, we can say that Korn predicted some things 15 years ago…
beautiful song!!!
Great music that predicted the future. Shame u don’t get this kind of profound amazing music anymore
einfach genial der song...
den kann man immer wieder hören.

Early teenager memories, classic album!!
Greatt
I love this song ...
five stars to em', the art of living life is enjoyed through their music and videos...it's about evolution~
just brilliant.
The songs not long enough John. Korn hears this all the time, but you guys are the best.
Amazing video, I love it!!!
my song favorite of KORN yea!!
Awesome Song!
The world has never been the same after this MV got released.
underrated song
RIP JOEY JORDISON
love this song
the verse music reminds of good old Korn.. great song!!!
This video's weird,but I absolutely love this song!
omg dont u just love the voice of jon davis?!
i was 3 years old when this song came out, and I loved it so much, I remember
Perfectly done!
holy crap its joey jordison.

Teringat lagu ini korn..umur ku sudah 41 sekarng..sesak rasanya ingat masa remaja lagu ini..salam dari asia
Seen this band 4 or five times live and not once have they played this song still… hoping at sick new world they will
Update, they didn’t lol
Eu juro que nunca iria imaginar que essa musica era do korn, aí do nada eu trombo com esse clipe e relembro mais de mil coisas da minha infancia ksks
he was warning us all this time and people ignored it
We've been warned by numerous people since before Our founders ushered in the US COnstitution. Plato's "Allegory of the Cave" comes to mind.

rage, System of a Down and many others. TH-cam recently put a “warning filter” on SOAD’s “sugar.” Living in weird times.

it's happening in my school (teachers)korn 4 ever

That bass is saucey... Offt! -chills intensify-
