CO-HEADLINING WITH BREAKING BENJAMIN
Last week, KORN revealed the single for “A Different World” from their upcoming new studio album, THE SERENITY OF SUFFERING (out October 21 on Roadrunner Records). Featuring special guest, Slipknot frontman Corey Taylor, the song was heavily embraced by the media and fans upon its release September 29, as well as when Taylor joined the band to perform it live for the first time at the Louder Than Life Festival in Louisville, KY October 2. Today (October 5), KORN have revealed the video for “A Different World.”
The animated piece, which takes one inside a man’s eerie and demented mind, was conceptualized by Mexican short film director Luis Tellez (The Great Journey, Terrible Boy). Earlier today, entertainment portal IMDb gave fans and film buffs a first look at the video alongside KORN band member’s all-time horror film favorites.
Produced by Nick Raskulinecz (Foo Fighters, Deftones, Mastodon), THE SERENITY OF SUFFERING –KORN‘s 12th studio album—is highlighted by a return to a dual-guitar dynamic and some of front man Jonathan Davis‘ most inspired moments of self-reflection and expression. It findsKORN harnessing all the anger, power and trademark balance of darkness and light that made their name all those years ago. Pre-order the album here: http://flyt.it/KORNSOS

About KORN:
KORN built an immortal bond in 1993 the first time Jonathan Davis, James “Munky” Shaffer, Reginald “Fieldy” Arvizu, and Brian “Head” Welch decided to make music as a unit. They shed blood, sweat, and tears in the studio and on stage, fashioning an undeniable and unique sound that would permanently alter the course of rock music. After six seminal releases, two Grammy Awards, countless sold out shows, and selling 35 million albums worldwide, Head left the group in 2004 to face the demons of addiction. KORN soldiered on, adding drummer Ray Luzier in 2007 and releasing four more full-length releases. In 2012, a triumphant and tear-filled reunion happened on stage as the group headlined the Carolina Rebellion Festival with Head reprising his legendary part on “Blind.” The initial bond came back into focus, and it was time for their next studio album, The Paradigm Shift, which seamlessly melds the group’s ever-present spirit of innovation with their signature metallic catharsis, paving the way for the future yet again. In 2014, KORN started their 20th anniversary celebrations, playing their critically acclaimed self-titled debut album in its entirety. The shows were so well received, the group continued the festivities into 2015, performing the record on tour to fans around the world. Look for KORN to release their twelfth album The Serenity of Suffering this October.
