KORN: Video Footage Of GRASPOP METAL MEETING Performance Available

June 28, 2007

Professionally filmed video footage of KORN's June 23, 2007 performance at the Graspop Metal Meeting in Dessel, Belgium has been posted at YouTube.

KORN frontman Jonathan Davis says in the new issue of Kerrang! magazine that his near-fatal bout with a rare blood infection in 2006 was the main inspiration for many of his lyrics on the group's upcoming new album. Davis explained to the U.K. publication, "Death was completely on my mind when I was writing the lyrics for the new record. It really made me think about life, where it's been and where it's going. It made me rearrange the things in my life that I hold dearest and changed the way I thought about my family and my family in KORN."

Davis was afflicted with idiopathic thrombocytopenia purpura, a disease that makes it difficult for sufferers to form blood clots and stop bleeding. KORN was forced to cancel a European tour last summer so that he could recover.

KORN's eighth studio album, which has been left untitled, comes out on July 31. The first single is called "Evolution".

KORN will kick off the 2007 Family Values tour on July 20 in St. Louis, with EVANESCENCE and a number of other acts on the bill.
