Foreword: I love Korn and nu-metal is one of my favorite genres in the metal world!
Released just before the release of "Issues" (and then added as a bonus disc in the special editions of the latter), "All Mixed Up" is an EP of only five tracks, which literally serves no purpose!
I mean, what use are 3 useless remixes and a live performance ("Twist/Chi") that can be perfectly fine listened to on the "Family Values Tour 1998" CD? Noteworthy only is the (pseudo) original "Jingle Bells," a death metal version of the classic Christmas carol, but even here it's laughable: hearing such a deep and low growl from a voice like Johnatan Davis's and hearing death played by the band that invented nu metal is very funny (to say the least), but in the end, it's listenable and reaches sufficiency.
As for the aforementioned mixes, there's an unlistenable "radio version" of "A.D.I.D.A.S." and two techno-remixes of "Good God" and "Got The Life", the first one is terrible, the second mediocre. The live track is not bad because songs like "Twist" and "Chi" are good, but it’s really pointless to feature it here.
It's truly a bad mini-CD for Korn who perhaps were still charmed by the commercial success of that rap-metal mix (of which only the first 3 songs are worth it) that was "Follow The Leader." If you happen to come across it (it's difficult to, fortunately it’s almost impossible to find) avoid it, it won't tell you anything.
