A.D.I.D.A.S. Review

"A.D.I.D.A.S." -- a kinetic funk-metal track allegedly built around the schoolyard acronym "All Day I Dream About Sex" -- was Korn's breakthrough single, and deservedly so -- it was arguably the best moment on their debut album. For its U.S. single release, it was presented in three different mixes -- "Synchro Dub," "Under Pressure Mix," "Wet Dream Mix" -- along with "Wicked (Tear the Roof Off Mix)." Instead of demonstrating the suppleness of Korn's grooves, these mixes tend to emphasize their disavowed metallic roots, but they're often interesting and may be worth the time of hardcore fans. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All Music Guide
