KORN changed the world with the release of their self-titled debut album in 1994. It was a record that would pioneer a genre, and blur others-leading into a larger cultural movement. Since forming, KORN has sold more than 40 million albums worldwide, collected two Grammys, toured the world countless times, and set many records in the process that will likely never be surpassed. KORN has continued to push the limits of the rock, alternative and metal genres, while remaining a pillar of influence for legions of fans, and generations of artists around the globe.

KORN singer Jonathan Davis states: “Reflecting on thirty years of KORN fills me with such immense gratitude for our journey, the growth we’ve experienced, and the incredible bond we share with our fans. It’s humbling to see how our music has touched so many lives across the globe. From our small club beginnings to now headlining stadiums, it’s been an unforgettable ride, and we owe it all to our amazing, undying, loyal community that’s made it possible. I’m really looking forward to this incredible night to celebrate together.” –

This past September, KORN guitarist Brian “Head” Welch said that fans can expect to hear new music from the band next year. Brian — who rejoined KORN a decade ago, eight years after leaving the band and at the same time announcing that he kicked his addictions to drugs and alcohol by becoming a born-again Christian — went on to say that there will likely be “a celebration” of the 30th anniversary of KORN‘s debut album in 2024.

 

Earlier this year, KORN announced an exclusive collaboration with German sports clothing company Adidas.

The footwear collection features a custom take on the chunky Campus 00s silhouette and a daring update to the Supermodified sneaker. Both looks boast a suite of unique details including graphic insoles, spare laces, KORN logos, a guitar pick keychain, and a co-branded box.

Arriving on October 27, the first adidas Originals and KORN collection is available on adidas.com and via select retailers.

Kerrang! magazine reported in 2021 that Adidas gave KORN free product in the late 1990s but was unwilling to sign the band to a proper deal. This led KORN to ink a deal with Puma in 1998.

“We switched to Puma because they told us they’d put us in a commercial and give us a little money to wear their shit,” KORN frontman Jonathan Davis told Kerrang!
