Over the weekend, Korn headlined the first night of Sick New World in Las Vegas. It was the culmination of a huge day of music and entertainment, but it also served as a chance to fans to catch the iconic nu metal band playing some classics and some newer tunes throughout the night. But about half way through their set, they broke out something new they released just last Thursday — “Reward The Scars.”
You may recall that few days ago Korn dropped the aforementioned brand new track in conjunction with the impending release of Blizzard’s Diablo IV: Lord Of Hatred expansion. It’s their first new song since they put out 2022’s Requiem.
During their set, frontman Jonathan Davis addressed the crowd before launching into the new track:
“We’ve been out touring and shit a little bit, but we’ve been stuck in the fucking studio for, like, five years. We’ve been working hard, we had some good shit, we got rid of that, and we made some badass shit! Would you guys like to hear that song? Do you want to hear some new Korn shit?!”
Looking at their setlist, it seems like if you were a fan of Korn, you got one hell of a show. Featuring songs from all four of their first albums, as well as A Look In The Mirror and others, they also performed “Proud” for the first time since 2011. It was also the first time playing that song with guitarist Brian “Head” Welch in the fold since 1999.
