Korn brings “Reward The Scars” into the spotlight in new world

track or the beginning of a larger release, one thing is certain – Korn is not finished yet. The band has been hard at work in the studio for years, refining and reshaping their sound, searching for something edgier and more dynamic.

The debut of ‘Reward The Scars’ at Sick New World was a high-energy affair, with the band diving straight into the new material with raw intensity. Frontman Jonathan Davis expressed his gratitude to the fans for their patience and support, acknowledging the long road it took to get back on stage.

The origins of ‘Reward The Scars’ trace back to its inclusion in the soundtrack of the upcoming ‘Diablo IV: Lord Of Hatred’ expansion. The track perfectly encapsulates Korn’s signature dark and brooding style, fitting seamlessly into the hellish world of the popular game. With the full expansion set to drop imminently, ‘Reward The Scars’ is poised to reach a wider audience beyond the metal scene.

Following the live debut of the new track, Korn shows no signs of slowing down. A European headline tour, their first in over a decade, is on the horizon, featuring support from Architects, Pixel Grip, and Youth Code. This will be followed by a tour through Latin America with Spiritbox in tow. Despite the absence of bassist Fieldy, who took a step back in 2021, the band continues to push forward, showcasing their resilience and commitment to their craft.

‘Reward The Scars’ may be just the beginning for Korn, hinting at a new chapter in their musical journey. With years of material scrapped and reworked, the band is aiming for a sound that is not only bold but also innovative. As they continue to evolve and experiment, Korn remains a vital force in the metal scene, proving that they still have plenty to say and do.
