LISTEN: Korn unleash blistering Corey Taylor collaboration 'A Different World'
It doesn't disappoint
Korn have finally unleashed their highly-anticipated Corey Taylor collaboration ‘A Different World’.
Keeping up the ante following previous ‘The Serenity of Suffering’ tasters ‘Insane’ and ‘Rotting In Vain’, the track embraces the light vs. dark dynamic with searing melodies colliding with brutal breakdowns. Nice.
Speaking about the collaboration, Korn’s Jonathan Davis said: “We were trying to figure out who we wanted to collaborate with, and I’m like, ‘You know, that’s the one, that’s the guy' (Corey Taylor).”
“And I texted him, I’m like, ‘Do you want to be on a new Korn track?’ He’s all, ‘Hell yeah! When and where, what do I do?’ So he did great on the song. I already did my parts, I’m like, ‘Do what you do, man.’
“And I like the way he did it, the approach: he starts creeping in underneath the song, you can start slowly hearing his voice under mine, and it crescendos up into the middle part where he sings, and then it’s just full-on at the end, so the song came out great.”

'The Serenity Of Suffering' arrives via Roadrunner Records on 21st October. It was produced by the acclaimed studio wizard Nick Raskulinecz who counts Foo Fighters, Deftones and Mastodon among his production credits.
The record comes complete with an incredible cover created by acclaimed artist Ron English. It depicts a teenage Korn fan at a dystopian acid-nightmare funfair who is clutching a disembowelled and skeletal version of the doll who adorned 1999’s ‘Issues’.
Don’t forget, Korn are heading out on a co-headline UK arena tour with Limp Bizkit this coming December. Tickets are on sale from Kerrang! Radio Tickets now.
