Jonathan Davis connected with Alternative Press and provided an oral history of Korn for issue #403. During the interview, he spoke about the meaning behind Requiem‘s name.
“For me, it was about [saying] goodbye to the old and hello to the new,” Davis explains. A ‘Requiem’ is a thing for the dead, which is why I liked it so much. It’s out of respect for all of the people we lost throughout the pandemic — there was so much death going on. There were so many different meanings going on, and I just liked the way it sounded. The vibe just seemed right.”
In addition, Korn are set to perform a slew of live shows across the globe. Check out the full list of tour dates below, and grab tickets here.
