KORN Frontman On Working With TERRY BOZZIO: 'He Makes Us Think Differently About Our Music'

February 2, 2007

KORN frontman Jonathan Davis has told MTV.com that the band has already done some work with the Matrix for its next record and is about to return to the studio with Atticus Ross — the same crew of producers behind "See You on the Other Side". Davis hesitated to talk about the new music, but said drummer Terry Bozzio (FRANK ZAPPA, MISSING PERSONS),who is filling in for the on-hiatus David Silveria, is contributing to the songwriting process.

"Just picture KORN with prog drums," Davis said. "It's an amazing thing to have someone so talented come into our band. I am not used to playing with him, he brings something totally different. I mean, when he first showed up in the studio, he brought his drum set, which is his small set, and it's huge compared to any other drum set anyone plays out there right now. ... He makes us think differently about our music. It makes the riffs that we write come to life.

"It makes you think about singing different because we have someone in our arsenal now that is amazing, that can pull off stuff that no other human being can pull off, and I think when we go out on tour with him and people see his drum set and see him play with us, it's just going to freak people out," he added.

KORN expect to release the yet-untitled album by summer.
