Regarding the album, vocalist Jonathan Davis stated: "I want to trail-blaze. I want to change things. I want to do things we're not supposed to do. I want to create art that's different and not conform to what's going on. We didn't make a dubstep album. We made a Korn album." The album was made available for pre-order on Amazon and iTunes on October 21, 2011, as well as special bundle packages available on Korn.com. The album received mixed reviews. Revolver named it their album of the year in their 100th issue. Korn was also inducted into the Kerrang! Hall of Fame during the 2011 Kerrang! Awards. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
