サマリー
あらすじ・解説
In our debut episode, Mandy Stephenson and Gavin L. Fry dissect Korn’s haunting music video for Falling Away From Me. We explore the dark narrative at its core, diving into its representation of trauma and abuse and how it resonated with audiences at the time of its release.
Through an analysis of the video’s aesthetics and its connection to themes of mental health and empowerment, we uncover the layers of meaning behind Korn’s visual storytelling. We also discuss the video’s intertextual links to horror cinema and consider how it might be reimagined in today’s cultural and technical landscape.
Whether you’re a long-time Korn fan, a visual storytelling enthusiast, or simply curious about the cultural power of music videos, join us as we explore the artistry and impact of one of the late ‘90s most iconic music videos.
In the podcast we discuss a low budget music video made for my friend Dan in the metal band Aand - the link is here if you are interested in watching it. It links to the Korn video because of the merging of fantasy and reality.
