Korn frontman Jonathan Davis has a solo album out, but that hasn’t stopped the remaining members of Korn from hitting the studio and working hard on the band’s forthcoming album.
Davis tells Metal Hammer, “I’ve listened to a bunch of stuff. There’s been really good ideas, really cool grooves”, Davis told Metal Hammer of the new material. “It really doesn’t start taking place until I get there and glue all the sh*t together with the arrangements and put my vocals on it.
“But they are working with different producers and we’re gonna do the record and we’ll see – I’m really excited for it. It doesn’t suck, I know that.
“I’m not going, ‘Go back, please.’ I’m more impressed on these than I was with Serenity Of Suffering, so…”
He was non-committal as to whether the material would sound like classic Korn, saying: “We’ll see. Sometimes they write it and then I start fucking with shit and it turns into something different.
“That’s when I come in and they get all pissed off or they just get scared. I’m like, ‘See that feeling right there? That’s progress. When you’re feeling comfortable, no. I want you to be scared.'”
