Korn have released a brand-new video for their latest single, You'll Never Find Me.
As Korn's huge co-headline tour with Alice In Chains kicks off in North America today, the band have shared a brand-new video (directed by Andzej Gavriss) for latest single You'll Never Find Me.
Of the song itself – which is taken from Korn's forthcoming album The Nothing, due out on September 13 via Roadrunner Records – frontman Jonathan Davis recently told Kerrang!: “I think it’s more of an evolution for the band. I keep hearing that it’s more mature and this and that, but I don’t know what the fuck that means. Are we older? How does it sound more polished and mature? But whatever. Everyone was freaking out over that song, so it became the single.”
The record itself will be the band's bleakest ever, with Jonathan elaborating, “I’ve never hurt like that ever, but when you’re hurting like that shit just comes out. It wasn’t going to be an album necessarily about, ‘Oh, woe is me.’ This whole [record] is about this dark thing. I’m not going to say demons or devils or whatever the fuck it is, but this dark energy has chased me for so long. It’s just me dealing with it and talking about it, and I’ve always felt comfortable there. Why in my life have I had so much fucking heartache? Why do I always get dealt the things I get dealt? That’s me dealing with it.
“I was struggling with the thing that’s chasing me – that’s always fucking with me." he continues, detailing the meaning behind the album title. "I tried to give it a name and it just fit. I know it’s from The NeverEnding Story – The Nothing was coming to destroy the fairytale land with Atreyu. I love that movie, but it was somewhere in between. The Nothing’s not necessarily evil evil – it’s a mixture, and I’m all about balance. In my house I’ve got crosses of Jesus everywhere and [deity] Baphomets everywhere – I’m in the middle, I’m Switzerland. I always thought there are two things I know for sure in the universe – there’s a positive and a negative. I tend to be intrigued more by the dark side – I’ve collected a lot of dark things, seen some crazy shit – but when all that shit went down with Deven and my son, it seemed like the powers that be were keeping me from making the record. I sound crazy when I talk about it, but one thing after another would happen – my mics would break, stuff at the studio would break, things would happen at home… Whatever it was, it was keeping me from doing what I was doing. It’s always been the case with me.”
