Watch KoRn play biggest UK show to date at Gunnersbury Park
KoRn have performed in London for the first time in seven years, and taken to the stage for their biggest UK show to date. Check out footage of the gig below, as well as the full setlist.
Held last night (August 11) in the UK capital, the gig was the final of a trio of huge summer 2024 UK shows that the band announced back in January – following on from slots in Scarborough and Halifax.
It also arrived as part of the Gunnersbury Park outdoor gig series, and saw support coming from Denzel Curry, Wargasm, Spiritbox and Loathe.
Kicking off the 16-song setlist, Jonathan Davis and co. brought the same setlist as seen in their previous 2024 shows. This involved them opening with ‘Rotting In Vain’, taken from their 2016 album ‘The Serenity Of Suffering’, before breaking out ‘Here To Stay’, ‘A.D.I.D.A.S’, ‘Clown’ and ‘Start The Healing’.
From there, huge hits like ‘Got The Life’, ‘Y’All Want A Single’, ‘Blind’ and ‘Falling Away From Me’ were lined up, before they wrapped up the night with their biggest track ‘Freak On A Leash’.
Both ‘Coming Undone’ and ‘Shoots And Ladders’ were also played live, and adapted for the live show, with the band integrating brief renditions of both Queen’s ‘We Will Rock You’ in the former and Metallica’s ‘One’ in the latter. Check out footage of the show and the setlist below.

At the start of the month, KoRn’s first show in London in seven years was listed by NME as one of the 13 huge outdoor gigs in the capital to get excited about this summer.
Upon announcing the concert back in January, vocalist Jonathan Davis reflected on how it marked their biggest UK show to date, and added that the band were “really excited to play a big show for our London fans in a different kind of setting”.
Also performing at the Gunnersbury Park series this year are Tom Grennan, Peggy Gou, FISHER and PJ Harvey.
As for KoRn, new music from the nu-metal pioneers is set to arrive this year, according to guitarist Brian ‘Head’ Welch. The band’s last album, ‘Requiem’, came out in February 2022, and around the time of its release, Davis revealed they had already begun working on its follow-up.
Head then shared more insight during his appearance on Joe Rogan’s The Joe Kingdom Perspective.
He didn’t go into particular detail about how the band’s 15th album might sound or how it might be released, but confirmed it would be happening nonetheless. “Yeah, new music coming out next year. I don’t know, we’re just kind of in hiding right now, just doing our own thing,” [via Loudwire].
Back in May, the members teamed up once again with Adidas Originals, launching a second clothing collaboration.
