TikTok metal breakout Kim Dracula has enlisted Korn frontman Jonathan Davis for their new song, "Seventy Thorns." Known primarily for their viral cover of Lady Gaga's "Paparazzi," Dracula is fond of meshing several different styles of music together in one song, and on this one they leap from Korn-ish nu-metal to thrash to horn-infused proto-metal to industrial at a Mr. Bungle-tier pace.
One of Dracula's vocal deliveries is a scat-inflected style of rapping that's obviously inspired by Davis' work in Korn, so it makes a lot of sense when the nu-metal pioneer comes belting in during the song's emotional hook, which basically sounds like a Korn song. The track is a wild ride, and the video — in which Davis makes an appearance — brings it all to life in eye-popping fashion.
