The announcement came with the trailer/”visualizer” for the song “Can You Hear Me”. Give it a spin at the top of the article; check out the synopsis below.
Synopsis/Band Statement:
In the spirit of giving our fans the most comprehensive and immersive Korn experience, we’ve created a fictional, narrative podcast called THE NOTHING. With Adam Mason and Simon Boyes, we tell the story of a small town in Kansas that has seen its ills be solved at the hands of a charismatic, commune leader and his devotees. But of course, nothing is ever as it seems. Across the six-episode series, the story will unfold featuring a score from Jonathan. Check out the trailer for THE NOTHING podcast, which is also the official visualizer for “Can You Hear Me” – the most recent release from our forthcoming album, The Nothing, out next Friday, the 13th.

Here’s what KORN guitarist Munky told us about the album in an exclusive interview:
We put a whole year into this record. That’s something we hadn’t done since Untouchables in 2002. So, we really sat with these songs, lived with them, had time to reflect on them, and then went back and worked on them some more. We didn’t rush it through just to put something out in order to get back on tour. I know a lot of bands do that; we’ve done it in the past too—I’m guilty. But this time we wanted to spend time with our families and take our time to make some great music. So, we spaced things out and really enjoyed being in the moment.
