Korn / The Nothing Vinyl

THIS IS A PRE-ORDER ITEM AND WILL BE SHIPPED WITH ANY OTHER ITEMS PURCHASED ALONGSIDE IT FROM THE RELEASE DATE OF AUGUST 28TH*

The "The Nothing" LP by Korn is released on Rhino and brings together thirteen tracks that present the band in an unexpectedly personal yet powerful late-career work. The record is built on heavy guitar riffs and low-tuned bass lines, but it doesn’t rely on sheer force alone; subtle keyboard textures and stylistically varied arrangements create atmospheric depth.

Korn’s characteristic style — nu metal rooted in dark melodies, syncopated drumming, and distinctive vocal lines — appears here in concentrated form. Jonathan Davis uses his voice as the primary expressive element, supplemented by occasional bagpipe parts, while James "Munky" Shaffer and Brian "Head" Welch shape the guitar soundscapes and Reginald "Fieldy" Arvizu provides the sonic foundation; Ray Luzier drives the dynamics forward with precise drumming.

Producer Nick Raskulinecz delivers a dense yet detailed production that leaves space for Davis’s raw, often inward-looking lyrics. Themes such as loss and grief run through the songs; the singer processes personal tragedies openly and at times in a near-documentary way in the vocal arrangements, giving the record an unfiltered emotional impact. Critics highlighted the expressive balance between brutal moments and reflective passages.
