On Wednesday, Korn drummer Ray Luzier confirmed via Instagram that he plays on Davis' solo effort and will perform on the attendant tour. “I'm super stoked to announce that I’m playing drums on JD's new record and upcoming tour,” he said. “You guys are gonna trip out on how great this record is!”

The Korn frontman first hinted at a solo full-length back in December, revealing on Facebook his plans for both an album and tour apart from his principal act. Last month, Davis dropped the clip for “What It Is,” his new tune from the American Satan soundtrack that also serves as the musician's first single from the long-in-the-works solo album.

“It took 10 years, and I'm so glad this project is finally [coming] out,” Davis says of his solo debut. “It is something that is very close to me and I'm excited for the world to finally hear it. This time, I'm pulling something out of the audience. I've bared my soul for so fucking long, I thought it'd be really cool to pull listeners in a different direction for once.”
