Korn, with an innovative, mad mixture of rock, metal, hip-hop, dissonant deep groove, and hardcore, have created their own brand of heavy music. The five-strong Southern Californian band, self-professed leaders of the sonic revolution, made it the old-fashioned way. With little to no support from radio or TV, Korn cultivated a fiercely loyal and ever-expanding fan base through non-stop touring and creative self-promotion.
Here is the down-and-dirty history of how Jonathan Davis, James "Munky" Shaffer, Brian "Head" Welch, Reggie "Fieldy" Arvizu, and David Silveria came together to form Korn. Features details of the band members' musical histories, and a discography.
