Closing out their 20th Anniversary headlining tour KORN comes to the intimate Fillmore Miami Beach at the Jackie Gleason Theater Friday, October 16th, 2015 / 8PM. Tickets are on sale Friday, July 24th/ 10AM. Joining KORN on the tour are special guests Suicide Silence and Islander.
Grammy Award-winning multi-platinum hard rock innovators KORN are topping off their 20th anniversary celebrations with something special for their fans. They will head out on the road for one last turn in 2015 to perform their debut album KORN in its entirety. The 20th anniversary shows, which started in 2014, were so well-received that the band—Jonathan Davis (vocals), James “Munky” Shaffer (guitar), Brian “Head” Welch (guitar), Reginald “Fieldy” Arvizu (bass) and Ray Luzier (drums)–wanted to bring this iteration of the live show into an intimate setting for the core fanbase. KORN’s self-titled debut album, which was released in May 1994, has been heralded by Rolling Stone as “the most important metal album of the last 20 years.” The critically acclaimed album featured singles “Blind,” “Shoots and Ladders,” “Clown” and “Need To.” With little mainstream support, Davis’ dark and disturbing lyrics alongside KORN’s unique hyper-aggressive soundtrack, the album went on to sell over two million worldwide.
Wrote Christopher Weingarten of Rolling Stone: “While aging metalheads were trying to walk confidently through alternative nation, Korn lurched into the world like hip-hop zombies rocking Adidas tracksuits, baggy jeans and untamed dreadlocks. Their eclecticism was a pre-iTunes shuffle jumble: the whinnies and whines of Cypress Hill, the goth bravado of the Cure, the thwapping double-kicks of Primus, the 808 hit of a Rick Rubin brick-breaker, meth-fueled Boredoms-style scatting, and bass strings that sounded like a bask of crocodiles tangled in industrial-sized rubber bands.”
Look for KORN to return with a new album in 2016.
