Korn vocalist Jonathan Davis has announced a run of solo shows which will take place across North America and Europe later this year.

On Friday, Davis launched his new single What It Is, which is expected to feature on his as-yet-untitled solo album later this year.

The song also appears on the soundtrack to the film American Satan, starring Black Veil Brides’ vocalist Andy Biersack and Asking Alexandria guitarist Ben Bruce.

Davis said: “It took 10 years, and I’m so glad this project is finally out. It is something that is very close to me and I’m excited for the world to finally hear it.

“This time, I’m pulling something out of the audience. I’ve bared my soul for so fucking long, I thought it’d be really cool to pull listeners in a different direction for once.”
