Korn in Newcastle upon Tyne

Korn are an American metal band formed in Bakersfield, California, in 1993. Their heavy, downtuned sound became closely associated with nu metal through albums such as Korn, Follow the Leader and Issues. “Freak on a Leash,” “Got the Life” and “Here to Stay” are among their best-known songs. Korn launched the first Family Values Tour in 1998, heading a lineup that included Rammstein, Ice Cube, Limp Bizkit and Orgy. The band followed it with a performance at Woodstock ’99, then later co-headlined the 2016 Return of the Dreads Tour with Rob Zombie and a 2019 summer tour with Alice in Chains. Outside the United States, Korn have performed at Download Festival at Donington Park and Rock am Ring at the Nürburgring.
