Synopsis

Korn perform "Blind" in a cramped, chaotic club surrounded by an intensely active crowd. Jonathan Davis commands the room from the center of the stage while the band attacks the song with raw, confrontational energy. The video cuts between performance footage, shots of the group hanging out, and outdoor images that add a stark, restless atmosphere. Its rough, low-budget look and frequent shifts between color and black-and-white match the abrasive sound of Korn's debut and present the band as a dangerous new live act.

Factoids & Trivia

  • The video was released in January 1995, several months after "Blind" appeared as the first single from Korn's self-titled debut album in August 1994.
  • The supposed club audience was much smaller than it appears on screen. Munky later recalled that only around twenty people were in the room, with the camera and dolly taking up much of the available space.
  • The band invited friends to help create the impression of a packed, out-of-control gig. According to Munky's recollection, the crowd became genuinely wild once playback started.
  • The production was financed personally by the filmmaker, which helps explain the video's stripped-down, documentary-like presentation.
  • "Blind" was included in Korn's 1997 home video *Who Then Now?*, alongside early clips for "Shoots and Ladders," "Clown," and "Faget."
  • The video captures Korn before their later productions became more elaborate. Its small stage, harsh lighting, handheld energy, and unpolished imagery have since become part of the song's early nu-metal legacy.

Lyrics

Are you ready?!

This place inside my mind, a place I like to hide
You don't know the chances. What if I should die?!
A place inside my brain, another kind of pain
You don't know the chances. I'm so blind!

Another place I find to escape the pain inside
You don't know the chances. What if I should die?!
A place inside my brain, another kind of pain
You don't know the chances. I'm so blind!

Deeper!.. Deeper!.. Deeper inside me!
