KORN: 'See You On The Other Side' Cover Artwork Posted Online
October 11, 2005The cover artwork for KORN's new album, "See You on the Other Side", has been posted online at KornUnleashed.net. The art was designed by David Stoupakis, who was also responsible for the cover of KORN's "Twisted Transistor" single.
"See You on the Other Side" is scheduled for release on December 6 through a global partnership with EMI/Virgin Records. This innovative multiple rights joint venture deal is among the first of its kind in the music industry.
Produced by KORN frontman Jonathan Davis along with The Matrix and Atticus Ross, "See You on the Other Side" is said to be "the most revolutionary KORN album since their debut… a barb-wired, bastard son of blinding musical fury, dark and twisted lyrical candor, and searing, sociopathic tendencies. It's the culmination of everything KORN have come to represent musically, morphed with an industrial-strength alter ego that's been suppressed — until now," according to a press release. In its first two weeks of release, the album's first single, "Twisted Transistor", was the No 1 most added track at Alternative Rock Radio.
In addition to their record deal, KORN and EMI Music have established a joint venture company in which EMI and Virgin Records will partner with KORN on the band's non-recording activities such as the band's DVD sales, music publishing, touring, merchandise, sponsorship and any other band activities such as film, TV, book or video game projects. The deal which offers KORN unprecedented artistic freedom, enables the group to be more innovative in the multi-platform release of music. KORN have been leaders in this arena, beginning with the KORN TV online campaign in 1998 to more recently when they were the first band to simulcast a live concert in 2002 into movie theaters across the U.S.
KORN are one of the most popular hard rock acts in the world today with a dedicated fan base and widely acclaimed live performances. They have sold a total of 25 million albums worldwide to date, 14 million of which were in the U.S. Their last four albums debuted in the top three of the Billboard Top 200, with two of them having entered the chart at No. 1.
