Korn bassist Reginald “Fieldy” Arvizu spoke to Rock Titan TV about the band’s recent takeover, The Devil Went Down To Georgia, featuring rapper YelaWolf.
He said :
It was hard, man. It’s one of the hardest songs I have ever had to learn. That’s crazy. Head and Munky know how to play the violin, but they did it on the guitar. These are really good parts. The structure of the song is crazy. The guys from Charlie Daniels Band were way ahead of their time. I am blown away. We did the cover featuring YelaWolf. I hope we won’t play it live, because otherwise I will have to study well …
All proceeds from this title will be donated to Awakening Youth, a non-profit organization dedicated to young people facing the loss of a parent due to divorce, addiction, death, re-adoption or for other reasons.
At the same time, Korn pays tribute to Charlie Daniels, the author of the song in question, who recently died at the age of 83. This classic song, which is taken from Charlie Daniels Band’s 10th album, Million Mile Reflections (1979), tells the story of a despondent devil who arrives in Georgia in search of a soul to steal. The song landed at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 and remained the band’s most popular song.
Korn has released his latest album, titled The Nothing, September 13, 2019 via Roadrunner Records & Elektra Records. The Nothing made a strong debut at No. 8 on the Billboard 200, generating 33,000 album-equivalent units in its first week of release.
