Requiem will be released this Friday, but Korn are giving fans even more new music from the album anyway: listen to the mesmerising Lost In The Grandeur now.
Following Forgotten and Start The Healing, Korn have shared another new single from their upcoming album Requiem.
Entitled Lost In The Grandeur, the Bakersfield legends' latest track is a heavy and hypnotic affair, with frontman Jonathan Davis begging to 'Help me find my way' and that he's 'so fed up with who I portray' in the chorus. It's a gloomy sentiment the vocalist spoke to Kerrang! about last year, admitting that, “The dark, to me, has been a very familiar place. That’s comfortable to me. But now I’m going through this new life, having had that [darkness] all go away, I don’t know how to react to it and I don’t know what to do. It’s hard for me to let go of that place. I always want to go back there because it’s familiar, but I’ve got to let it go. I’m not tortured anymore. I had to break free from that place – it was going to fucking kill me if I stayed there forever. But I don’t know how to react to being happy. I really don’t. I feel all goofy and weird.”
JD did stress, though, that making music with his bandmates – and particularly in the case of Requiem – is an incredibly enjoyable thing to do, and something that does come naturally. "We’ve been together 27 fucking years but I still get excited to see them," he said. "We’re still like those 24-year-old kids making that first record, we still get that excited."
