HEY YOU,
HEY YOU,
DEVIL'S LITTLE SISTER
LISTENING YOUR
TWISTED TRANSISTOR
HOLD IT UP
BETWEEN YOUR LEGS
TURN IT UP
TURN IT UP
See You on the Other Side
is the seventh
studio album
by American
nu metal band
It was released on
December 6, 2005,
by Virgin Records.
It is their first album
as a quartet
after the departure of
founding guitarist
Brian "Head" Welch
and the last album
with original drummer
David Silveria
before he departed
from the band in
December 2006.
The album was first
certified gold
in the United States
on
January 12, 2006;
a subsequent
platinum record certification
was awarded on
March 16, 2006.
In the album,
Korn
experimented with
different musical styles
and even collaborated
with pop music producers
The Matrix.
Critical reaction of the album
was generally positive.
However,
criticisms of the album
focused on the
musical production by
The Matrix
and songwriting.
Production
After completing
their record deal
with
Sony BMG
in 2004,
Korn
partnered with
EMI Records
and signed to
Virgin Records.
As part of this
innovative arrangement,
Virgin paid Korn
$25 million
in exchange for a
share in the profits of
See You on the Other Side
and the band's
next album,
including tours
and merchandising.
Virgin also received a
30 percent stake in
the band's licensing,
ticket sales
and other
revenue sources.
The album was recorded in
Jonathan Davis'
home studio
which was used for
the previous album,
Take a Look in the Mirror,
as well as the
Queen of the Damned
soundtrack and score.
Davis stated
"We went through a lot
of drama with
Head leaving and
getting off our label
and making the
album by ourselves."
Regarding
Brian "Head" Welch's departure,
James "Munky" Shaffer
recalled
"There was kind of a moment
where we didn't know
what we were going to do
and how we were
going to continue.
We kind of decided,
'OK, we can just sit back
and we can put out
a greatest hits album
and end this
or we can use
this opportunity
and
instead of looking
at it as a loss,
reinvent what we do.'"
Cover Art
The album features
layout design
and an original
painting by
the American
surrealist/gothic painter
David Stoupakis
on the cover.

Promotion
The lead single,
"Twisted Transistor",
premiered on
KDGE 102.1 FM
The Edge
in Dallas-Fort Worth, Texas,
and was officially
released to radio on
September 27, 2005.
Brent Decker
e-mailed the
disc jockey
of the night,
Ayo,
with a request
to play the rumored single.
The band also did a
See You on the Other Side
world tour
to heavily promote
the album,
which included a
special performance of
"Here to Stay"
on a plane from
London to
New York City.
