Korn comes to the intimate Fillmore Miami Beach at the Jackie Gleason Theatre on Wednesday, November 9th, at 8PM. Tickets go on sale Friday, September 30th at 10AM. Dubstep DJ Datsik and Downlink provide support. Dope Dod will also be performing. This is part of the Cruzan Concert Series.
Korn’s cathartic alternative metal sound positioned the group among the most popular and provocative to emerge during the post-grunge era. After signing to Epic’s Immortal imprint, they issued their debut album; thanks to a relentless tour schedule that included stints opening for Ozzy Osbourne, Megadeth, Marilyn Manson, and 311, the record slowly but steadily rose the charts, eventually going gold. Its follow-up, Life Is Peachy, was a more immediate smash, reaching the number three spot on the pop album charts. While recording their best-selling album Follow the Leader, Korn made national headlines when a student in Zeeland, MI, was suspended for wearing a T-shirt emblazoned with the group’s logo (the school’s principal later declared their music “indecent, vulgar, and obscene,” prompting the band to issue a cease-and-desist order). Korn has sold 16 million albums in the US and over 50 million worldwide. Ten of the band’s official releases have peaked in the top ten of the Billboard 200, eight of which have peaked in the top five. Eight of those releases are certified Platinum or Multi-Platinum by the RIAA, and one is certified Gold. Korn have released six video albums and 36 music videos. They currently have 38 singles, 26 of which have charted. Korn have earned two Grammy Awards out of seven nominations, for “Freak on a Leash” and “Here to Stay.” They have collaborated with musicians such as Dust Brothers, Corey Taylor, Chino Moreno from Deftones, Fred Durst from Limp Bizkit, Ice Cube, Tre Hardson from The Pharcyde and many others. Korn have recently collaborated with Skrillex, 12th Planet, Excision, Datsik, Downlink, Kill the Noise, Noisia, and Feed Me for their upcoming tenth studio album.
