Twist opens Korn's second album, Life Is Peachy, released in 1996, and is built almost entirely around Jonathan Davis's wordless scat vocal rather than conventional lyrics. The band, formed in Bakersfield, California, helped define nu metal in the mid-1990s with downtuned guitars and Davis's distinctive vocal style. Short clips of Twist have circulated for years among metal fans and meme editors because the vocal is so strange and instantly recognisable out of context. It remains popular as a shorthand for unhinged energy, especially in edits that need a sudden jolt of aggression.

The frantic scat vocal intro from Korn's Twist, a short burst of aggressive nu metal energy used for chaotic edits, reaction memes and heavy music montages.
This clip captures the opening of Korn's Twist, where Jonathan Davis launches into a rapid, wordless scat run over a pounding, downtuned groove. The vocals are percussive and almost animalistic, jumping between guttural bursts, squeals and rhythmic nonsense syllables while the guitars and drums drive hard underneath. It sounds unhinged and deliberately chaotic, less like a sung verse and more like a burst of raw energy. Heard on its own, it instantly signals aggression, panic or absurd confidence, which is why editors use it to punch up a sudden reveal, a failed attempt or a character losing control.
