Korn releases first new song in four years with ‘Reward The Scars’

Korn has dropped their first new music in four years with their new song ‘Reward The Scars’. The song comes as part of the new update for ‘Diablo® IV: Lord of Hatred’.

Written during recent studio sessions, “Reward the Scars” stands as a fully realized Korn record that continues the band’s legacy of confronting pain, survival, and transformation with a clarity and intensity few acts have matched. While the song found a natural home within the world of Diablo, it originated from the band’s own creative process and signals the next phase of their evolution.

“I’ve played Diablo for years, so getting to step into that world creatively felt natural,” said Jonathan Davis. “I’ve always connected to the darkness in the game and the idea of confronting what lives beneath the surface—that’s something Korn has explored in our music from the beginning. ‘Reward the Scars’ came out of our own writing sessions as a new Korn song, and it became clear pretty quickly that it was a natural fit for Diablo.”

The band debuted the track live during their recent set at Sick New World, where they continue to perform as a top-billed act. Known for their visceral live shows, Korn remain a dominant force on the global touring circuit as festival headliners who are equally capable of selling out their own large-scale headline shows, regularly drawing upwards of 25,000 fans.
