Korn’s new album, See You On The Other Side, is set to be released today (December 6), and the band is currently doing promotion in support. The band attended a press conference last week to discuss the album and their new song “Twisted Transistor,” and to also answer questions about creating music as a four-piece.

Korn guitarist Brian “Head” Welch left earlier this year, and the band had to write the album without their “brother.” We asked Korn’s remaining guitarist James “Munky” Shaffer about the pressure of being “the guy” on guitar in writing See You On The Other Side.

“I was really confused. I didn’t know what we were going to do about another guitar player, if we were going to bring somebody in to help write the songs, but really I wanted to prove to myself and to my band that I could do the job by myself. It was presented to me as an opportunity and I think I handled it very well.”

Korn’s See You On The Other Side is also being released as a deluxe DualDisc package that will feature three extra unreleased studio tracks and remixes of “Twisted Transistor,” among other goodies.
