Neidermeyer's Mind is a demo tape by the nu metal band Korn. It was produced by Ross Robinson and released in 1993. The demo is a rarity, but finished versions of the songs appeared on future Korn albums.

Before Korn even developed a name, they had moved into a small house together in Huntington Beach, California, south of Los Angeles, where they began working on songs. Later they rented a studio from Jeff Creath, the same person that let lead singer Jonathan Davis live in his garage. The studio was called "Underground Chicken Sound." While they were recording at Underground Chicken Sound, a group of people had been loitering around outside the studio. The band began playing a prelude to a later song, "Clown". When they began playing the song's riffs, a larger crowd gathered around, liking Korn's sound. Bassist Reginald "Fieldy" Arvizu, said it was because it sounded so "different."

The band name is derived from a fan suggestion "Corn", which the group initially rejected, but later settled on for a lack of better ideas. Shaffer had the idea to spell the name with both a "K" instead of a "C", and a backwards "R" so the band's name would appear as "KoЯn". The logo was designed by lead vocalist Jonathan Davis. Silveria explained, "the music makes the name, because Korn's a dumb name. But once we get established, it makes the name cool."

The demo version of "Daddy", is shorter in length (4:29), than the album version (9:35). The demo does not feature the a cappella intro; it starts immediately with Fieldy's bass riff. It also has a different chorus. After the instrumental bridge, there is an extra part to the song with Jonathan Davis singing: "Mommy! Why did Daddy touch me there?" which leads into "I didn't touch you there." Unlike the official version of the song, "Daddy" Was played live on three separate occasions. The demo version of "Blind" has a noticeably shorter bridge and many other changes. "Predictable" has a slightly higher key than the version featured on their debut album. Both songs "Blind & Daddy" appeared in Sexart before they were re-recorded with Korn. "Daddy" was titled "Follow Me".
