Korn frontman Jonathan Davis has revealed details on his long-awaited solo album.

It’ll be titled Black Labyrinth and will launch on May 25 via Sumerian Records.

And to mark the news, Davis has also made the cover art available, along with the tracklist – and 30 second snippets of every track on the record.

Speaking about Black Labyrinth, Davis says: “There’s a level of enlightenment I want to achieve. With all of the bullshit going, everyone is stuck on their fucking cell phones. This takes us way out of that.

“No matter how hard you try to fight bad things in your life, life will be what it is. It’s up to you to accept that, combat it, and move forward, or it’s up to you to be in denial. Then, it becomes a thorn in your side until you finally deal with it. This is it. Just deal with it.”

Davis will head out on a solo tour from next month with dates planned in North America and Europe, including a set at Download UK. Find further details below.

Black Labyrinth is now available for pre-order.
