It’s been a quiet start to the year for Korn so far, but this week the band kicked off a busy rest of 2024 with an appearance at Athens’ Ejekt Festival.
Happy days: Korn are back out on the road again!
Before this week the Bakersfield nu-metallers hadn’t played a show since October’s Aftershock, and so Monday, July 22 marked their first live date of 2024.
Korn headed to the Olympic Complex in Athens, Greece for Ejekt Festival, performing a killer 16-song set that opened with Rotting In Vain from 2016 album The Serenity Of Suffering, and finished up with their 1998 classic Freak On A Leash (check out the full setlist below).
They’ve got a bunch more European dates to come, before in August they play Scarborough, Halifax and their biggest UK date ever at London’s Gunnersbury Park. Then, of course, after that there’s the small matter of their North American headline tour with Gojira and Spiritbox, which includes a sold-out 30th anniversary stadium show in Los Angeles. Ahhh, it’s good to have ’em back.
