Listen to Korn's new song Cold, taken from their upcoming album The Nothing
Korn have released another new song from their upcoming album The Nothing. Titled Cold, it comes with a trippy visualiser created by Nicholas Fong.
Cold is the second single to be released from Korn's forthcoming 13th full-length, following on from You'll Never Find Me.
Speaking to Kerrang! recently, frontman Jonathan Davis revealed that The Nothing will be Korn's darkest ever record, written in response to his wife's death.
“Life has been very dark, so it was just me going through the grieving process with losing my wife," said Jonathan. "It was hard. I haven’t had a chance to reach my full potential on Korn records for years, because I’ve always been so busy with stuff at home – taking care of my son Zeppelin, who’s got type 1 diabetes, and Deven had really bad mental illness that I was hiding and dealing with. I did the best I could, but I never could put myself 100 per cent into [recording].
“Sitting down and working out what I was going to do with this record was a process, and this is the longest I’ve ever taken making a record. I went through working with a producer, different engineers and shit, and I finally got fed up. I’m like, ‘Fuck you all, just leave me alone; when it’s done it’s done and I’ll give you it.’ So it was just me and an engineer. I did it myself and it was a very cathartic, dark experience.”
Korn are currently touring North America with Alice In Chains, which kicked off last month. They've already slotted new song You'll Never Find Me into their set, so will the Bakersfield heavyweights drop Cold in there too? Catch them at a show below to find out.
