October 13, 2015, 9 years ago
The first Korn album was released on October 11th, 1994. To celebrate its 20th anniversary, the Grammy Award-winning multi-platinum hard rock innovators announced today they will release a limited edition 300-page hard cover photo book, Korn: Est. 1994,on Tuesday, October 27th, that includes images from two decades of archives paired with brand new notes, stories and commentary from band members. The book will give fans unlimited access into a career that includes 11 seminal releases, countless sold-out shows, and 35 million albums sold worldwide.
Fans can pre-order the photo book exclusively via Pledge Music for $55 (with a deluxe package available for $90 that includes the photo book and a limited-edition litho print of the band's debut album cover) up until Tuesday, October 20th and then the book will be available at Kornmerch.com from release day, October 27th. All fan pre-orders via Pledge Music will be shipped on Wednesday, October 21st. Additionally, the book will be available for purchase at the last seven tour dates (Dallas, TX on October 20th through Oakland, CA on October 30th) on their current fall tour. Full tour itinerary below.
The 20th anniversary shows, which started in 2014, were so well-received that the band - Jonathan Davis (vocals), James "Munky" Shaffer (guitar), Brian "Head" Welch (guitar), Reginald "Fieldy" Arvizu (bass) and Ray Luzier (drums) - wanted to bring this iteration of the live show into an intimate setting for the core fanbase. The band's month-long tour around the US, during which they're performing their self-titled debut album in its entirety, wraps up October 30th in Oakland, CA. At each show, fans get to experience Korn at an intimate venue, two decades later.
