yeah, it's been on launch.com forever.

and don't delude yourself. korn is still on epic records. guess who they're a member of? the RIAA. epic released this single because they know it will make them more money than if korn released another crappy album without also raising a "fuss" to promote it. "y'all want a single" is the most blatantly hypocritical piece of art to come out of the music industry in a long time, topping even rage against the machine. somehow a song that claims to diss the RIAA but actually helps fill their pockets doesn't seem so exciting anymore, does it? first the music industry took your random-youth anger, bottled it, prepackaged it, and sold it back to you (and you bought it), and now they're taking your *slightly* more focused anger toward them in particular, bottling it, and selling it back to you (and you're gonna buy it again). proof again that the RIAA is smarter than you and will always win until you people wise up.

edit: oh yeah, and the song sucks.

So you think it has nothing to do with KoRn now has the "muscle" as a band to work against their label, and is only still under the label because of their current contract. (especially since KoRn owns and runs Elementree Records). Their contract is for 5 albums, this is their 5th album under that contract.
