Korn goes dubstep for their latest album "The Path of Totality"


From nme.com:

Korn have announced that they will release their new studio album 'The Path Of Totality'.

The band will release the album on December 5 and have confirmed that the album will be comprised entirely of songs made with dubstep producers.
We here at People Liking People were never huge fans of Korn, however their first 2 albums are worth checking out. They helped created the dreaded genre of Nu-Metal that we mostly despise but they were able to pull it off in a way that didn't suck because they had fresh ideas and a unique sound. Now it's years later in their career - at the stage where they'd usually be pretty much over the hill and yesterday's news. But we just checked out a track from the upcoming album and it ain't too bad, check it out:



I think this is going to be very successful actually. There is an area between metal and dubstep that has yet to be discovered and this seems to be a step in the right direction for them. Korn is a type of band that does need to change over time to stay current and I think they chose the right direction here.
