KORN
The Nothing

Jonathan Davis exorcises his most ferocious demons yet
a career from exposing the chaos and darkness inside their collective psyche, but, even by their combustible standards, the last year has been unbelievably traumatic with the passing of Jonathan Davis’s wife, Deven, in August last year. Davis has never been one to we have another record that captures the pitch-black, often harrowing honesty of Korn’s early material. Although it might sound trite to say it, Davis can be proud of the way he has channelled himself to create a powerhouse of an album. From 90-second opener we’re left in no doubt that this album will be a traumatic experience, the intro consisting almost exclusively of haunting bagpipes and Jonathan screaming through inconsolable tears.
