As previously reported, Korn has covered Pink Floyd's "Another Brick in the Wall" for their forthcoming best-of set, due this fall. They will also include a cover of Public Enemy's "Fight the Power", however. The Pink Floyd classic was produced collectively by Korn, while "Fight the Power" was helmed by singer Jonathan Davis and Lil Jon, who called their crossbreed "crunk rock".

Four dates, including the first day of the massive four-day Roskilde Festival in Denmark, remain on Korn's itinerary before they join Linkin Park and Snoop Dogg on the Projekt Revolution tour, beginning July 23. In the few weeks before the tour commences, Korn plan to shoot a video for whichever cover is designated to be the first single from the greatest-hits album.

oh come on, theres a bad song on every single album existing. most people skip the bad track, all you gotta do is skip the track, but fieldy's nightmare (new solo project) is supposedly his darker offering...yeh well we'll see. good to hear Rick Rubin is producing the 4 new Korn trax.

Korn desperately needs a b**** slapping from Rick Rubin.Then again,he worked with Limp Bizkit on their lastest cd and well..we all know about that.So Rubin cant really save everyband.
