Korn's new album...with keys?

2006-10-23 by Thor | 15 Comments
According to Rolling Stone magazine, KORN has included keyboardist Zac Baird in the recording process for its eighth studio album.

"Everybody counted us down and out and said what we do is dead," KORN frontman Jonathan Davis said. "[On our last record, 2005's 'See You on the Other Side'] I think we proved to people that it's not, and now we're totally ready to knock it out of the park."

The band hit a Los Angeles studio in early October to begin work on the disc, which it hopes to release next spring.

"I'll probably pull a lot from my near-death experience," Davis said of his brush this year with a rare immune disease that left him with a platelet count close to zero.

"Dude, that affected me a lot. I'm all about my family now — it makes you reprioritize."

Pop producers The Matrix, who worked on "See You on the Other Side", will return for the new project. And the band is including a keyboardist in the writing process for the first time.

He's doing really cool melodies and very ambient stuff too," Davis told Rolling Stone.

They ALWAYS say that they go new routes yet they still put out the same crap since 12 years.

See You On The Otherside wasn't bad, but it would have benefited from a keyboardist.

Korn with a keyboard actually sounds like a good idea. It might add a little melody and variation to their sound.

I doubt I'll like it, but I'll at least give it a chance. I only like 2 of their albums (their self titled and Issues).

How the hell does this band go on. Who still listens to them? I love their first three cd's, but than they just went stale.

I was a HUGE fan of these guys a while back. SYOTOS kinda turned me off from them.
I might have to see how this goes though.

I love a good keyboard solo as much as the next guy, but not even a banjo (banjos pwn) could make this band listenable.
