KORN's new album, "Korn III - Remember Who You Are", is likely to sell between 60,000 and 65,000 copies in its first week of release, according to industry web site Hits Daily Double. The estimate was based on one-day sales reports compiled after the record arrived in stores on Tuesday (July 13). That's roughly half the amount of copies sold by the band's untitled 2007 effort, which moved 123,000 copies to debut at No. 2 on the Billboard album chart.
That album, the band's eighth, sold slightly over half the amount of the record before that, 2005's "See You On The Other Side", which racked up sales of 221,000 copies in its first week.
KORN's ninth offering, "Korn III - Remember Who You Are", is the band's first effort for brand new label home, Roadrunner Records, and it bursts at the seams with that very feeling that defined the band from the get-go. Each song unleashes an uneasiness reminiscent of KORN's earliest and most unbridled material, but there’s also a modern refinement that's epic in its execution.
In order to tap into the chaos that made their self-titled debut a modern classic, the band enlisted the help of the man who helmed "Korn" and "Life is Peachy" — producer Ross Robinson, whose goal was to bring KORN back to square one.
