Korn Announces New Album “Requiem Redux” and 2025 World Tour, Promising a Return to Their Roots
In thrilling news for the global rock community, Korn has officially announced their latest album, *”Requiem Redux,”* set for release in early 2025, alongside a massive world tour to support it. The announcement has sent waves of excitement through their devoted fanbase, as the band promises that this new record will mark a return to their early, heavier sound that defined the nu-metal era in the late 1990s and early 2000s.
*”Requiem Redux”* is described as a darker, more aggressive reimagining of their 2022 album *”Requiem,”* with the band delving deeper into the raw emotions and heavy soundscapes that made them pioneers of the genre. Lead vocalist Jonathan Davis shared his excitement in a recent interview, saying, “This album is Korn stripped down to our core. We revisited everything that made us who we are and brought that intensity back in a way we haven’t done in years. It’s an album for the fans who have been with us since day one and those who’ve grown with us.”
The album is expected to feature a number of collaborations with artists from across the rock and metal world, adding a fresh twist to Korn’s signature sound. Fans can look forward to hard-hitting tracks like “Shadows of the Past” and “Echoes of Pain,” which Davis describes as “gut-wrenching and cathartic,” reminiscent of the band’s groundbreaking early works like *”Follow the Leader”* and *”Issues.”*
In tandem with the release of *”Requiem Redux,”* Korn has also revealed an extensive world tour for 2025. This tour will take the band to new and familiar cities across North America, Europe, Asia, and South America, with several major festival appearances expected. Known for their electrifying live performances, Korn promises a show that will blend classic hits with new material, delivering a visceral experience for audiences worldwide.
Fans are already buzzing with anticipation, and tickets are expected to sell out quickly when they go on sale. As Korn prepares to unleash both a new album and a world tour, the band is proving once again that they remain one of the most influential forces in heavy music, continuing to evolve while staying true to their roots. 2025 is shaping up to be a monumental year for Korn and their fans.
