Korn’s 25-city North American tour hit Camden, NJ, at the Freedom Mortgage Pavilion on September 20th, marking 30 years of their groundbreaking debut. Before the band even hit the stage, anticipation was high as a massive black sheet covered the setup. As the first notes of "Here to Stay" rang out, the curtain dropped, revealing Korn headbanging like it was 1993, immediately sending the crowd into overdrive. From there, they tore through fan favorites like "Dead Bodies Everywhere" and "A.D.I.D.A.S.," alongside deeper cuts like "Ball Tongue" and "Clown." Three decades in, Korn's energy remains untouchable—they delivered every track with the same raw intensity that made them legends.
Spiritbox kicked off the night with a haunting yet powerful set, led by Courtney LaPlante’s fierce vocals that echoed across the venue. Gojira followed, delivering an onslaught of crushing riffs and technical precision, with the Duplantier brothers commanding the stage. Both bands set the perfect stage for Korn, whose performance didn’t just deliver on energy—it was a visceral reminder of the music that shaped a generation. For many, it was a throwback to their childhood, a chance to relive the raw, unfiltered freedom Korn’s music always brought, making the night both nostalgic and cathartic.
