(TeamRock Radio) Korn guitarist Brian 'Head' Welch has described the band's 12th album as "most intense" - and says they'll reveal full details soon. The follow-up to 2013's The Paradigm Shift has been under production for nearly a year, and he recently described it as "more guitar-focused."
Head tells AltPress: "We really wanted to go into what Korn does guitar-wise. We started getting ideas pretty quickly once we started going into bigger studios.
"It just went in that direction of the heavier sound - it's the most intense Korn music in a long time, vocally. This album has more of that quiet-loud dynamic, but also sounds current. The whole band is pretty happy with it."
He says the band kept live performance in mind while they were writing, and the result is a set of tracks that will work well on stage. "The last record had good songs on it, but we only played like two or three of them live, because not all of them translated live," he says.
"I can think of at least five that would be slammin' in a set. I'd love to play at least four of them to push the new album." Read more here.
