LOS ANGELES--(ENTERTAINMENT WIRE)--Feb. 5, 2000

Rock groups Korn and Limp Bizkit will world premiere their new music videos on "Jimmy &Doug's Farmclub.com" television show this Monday night (February 7) at 11:00 p.m. est/pst (10 p.m. Central) on USA Network. Both bands will be appearing live on the show as well.

Korn's music video "Make Me Bad," is the second single and video release from the group's triple platinum album "Issues" (Epic). Korn's video makes its global debut on the broadcast. Directed by acclaimed director Martin Weisz (Dru Hill, Live, Puff Daddy, Collective Soul), "Make Me Bad" features actors Udo Kier (End of Days, Blade, My Own Private Idaho) and Brigitte Nielsen (Beverly Hills Cop II, Cobra, Rocky IV).

Limp Bizkit will also be debuting their much-anticipated "Break Stuff" video from the band's album "Significant Other" during the same telecast. Fred Durst, lead singer of Limp Bizkit, pulled double duty by directing the video in addition to being the group's frontman. Entertainment and musical heavyweights including Korn lead singer Jonathan Davis, Staind singer Aaron Lewis, rap stars Snoop Dogg, Dr. Dre and Eminem, and funnyman-turned-actor Pauly Shore, all make special guest appearances as part of the video's notable ensemble. Additionally, Limp Bizkit will be performing with Methodman "N 2 Gether Now" from the "Significant Other" album.

Other musical guests featured this week are Powerman 500, Methodman, Redman, and unsigned artist Skycopter 9.
