March 25, 2018 – Black Labyrinth, the debut solo album fromJonathan Davis, storied frontman of critically lauded rock band Korn, is out now via Sumerian Records. The new album, from the two time GRAMMY® Award wins, eight time GRAMMY® Award nominations, artist with worldwide sales of 40 million-plus which is streaming in full now, features “What It Is” which hit Top5 on the Active Rock Charts and debuted as the #1 most added single on Rock radio, “Final Days,” a melodic and atmospheric track, accentuated by subtle hints of sitar and tabla, the straightforward arena-rock anthem “Underneath My Skin,” and ten other tracks primarily recorded live to tape, a departure from Korn’s heavily calculated, meticulous, studio approach to creation. Longtime fans of Korn will still find the familiarity of the band’s unique and unforgettable vocals, synths and commanding guitars in key track’s like “What You Believe” and “Everyone.“
Davis will celebrate the release of Black Labyrinth with his fans at the Affliction Sound Stage at 1799 Apollo CT, Seal Beach, CA 90740. Throughout release night, Daviswill be hosting a Ganzfeld Experiment with a few lucky fans, play Black Labyrinth in full, have a Q&A with Jose Mangin about the album and ending the night with an acoustic performance. The Q&A and acoustic performance will be streamed live on Monster Energy’s Facebook page.
Davis has also launched Episode One of Through The Black Labyrinth, which is streaming now onRevolver – PRESS HERE to watch. The new web series, which will feature 13 episodes in all, features behind the scene footage of the new album, which is inspired in part by the Ganzfeld Experiment, and the out of body experiences and hallucinations that often accompany it. As the new video details, Davis quietly compiled ideas for what would become this solo effort beginning back in 2007. Writing and recording on the road, he personally contributed guitar, keys, and anything else he could get his hands on to the record, which in this episode, includes an American Indian Flute.
“We took footage from recording the album 10 years ago,” Davis recalls of the footage, “and put it together to talk about each song on the record. It’s cool to share this peek behind the curtain with everyone.”
