KORN's JONATHAN DAVIS 'Really Excited' About First Solo Album

September 11, 2008

The Pulse of Radio reports that KORN singer Jonathan Davis is working on his first-ever solo album while the band takes an extended break. Davis has been writing material on his own for several years, and told The Pulse of Radio that fans should expect something different from what he does with KORN. "It's coming out really cool," he said. "It's a really dark, heavy Peter Gabriel vibe going on with it. Like, KORN's more intense and pumping in your face, this is more dark and, I don't know how to explain that vibe, like, I'd say like Peter Gabriel's vibe. It's just that big, open, world music style vibe, different instruments you and I really haven't heard, and there's electronic stuff going on...I'm really excited about it."

Davis says he's planning to write more songs for the album before he begins recording later this fall. He hopes to have the disc out by the end of 2008.

The singer says he's using the same band for the CD that he took on the road with him on his first solo tour last winter.

Davis plans to tour behind his own record for "six months to a year" before reconvening with KORN sometime in 2009.
