I'm listening to it now. Very skeletal music. There's not a lot of texture going on. It's produced like a KoRn album but wants to be an electronic/industrial album.

Much of it's like the Untitled Korn album... which also just so happens to be Korn's worst album, so in other words this direction was a huge mistake for Davis

I just finished listening to it. I'm going to review it regardless, but it was a pile of crap. The production sucks, lyrics are cringe worthy, and instrumentals bare. They keep injecting this Mediterranean scale into EVERY SONG and it never fits!!!

I must be in a minority of people that actually liked it. Then again, I also really liked Korn's Untitled album and this feels like a continuation of that, while stripping away the Korn instrumentation and going all in on the gothic/industrial vibe. So I kind of already knew people would hate it based on that alone.

There were some pretty cool names involved with recording too. Wes Borland is on half the tracks and Mike Dillon appears a few times. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_Labyrinth#Personnel

@Dats hey at least someone liked it. I've generally held that Untitled is contender for worst Korn album (Korn III is in the running too), but imo this is way below that even.

Untitled clicked with me while I was living in France last year.

Damn, even Wes Borland couldn't save this... and that's saying something because he helped quite a few Limp Bizkit tracks sound better than they really were.



Also, Untitled is definitely the worst Korn album. Not sure whether this is worse than that or not, but it's close.

Mostly JD himself, but some guy named Tiago Nunez is credited with "additional production"

Imagine my surprise to see that people seek out a Jonathan Davis release in 2018.

"i wasted 50 minutes on this album"

I wasted however long it took to write this comment on this album.
All I had to do was look at the name and realise, "Oh. This isn't worth my time."
