KORN guitarists James “Munky” Shaffer and Brian “Head” Welch told Live Nation TV in a new interview what they felt singer Jonathan Davis meant by “The Serenity Of Suffering” title. Shaffer said: “The way I see it is it’s his take on the record . . . I felt that he was kind of suffering — he was battling inside of himself to get to that creative place that he felt comfortable to start writing for the album, but it made a great record. This time for him, though, it felt a lot more difficult.”
Welch added: “I mean, he’s not perfect — obviously, none of us are — he’s just a sweet guy, and, unfortunately, he lets people hurt him a lot and he lives with it. He feels like normal when he’s suffering because he has suffered so much.”
Davis has a somewhat different view, telling The Pulse Of Radio that the title reflects a strange comfort he finds in feeling bad. “I feel like sometimes I’m in that place so much, I feel serenity when I’m there,” he said. “That’s where I feel comfortable, when I’m down. And I think people who have ever battled depression and stuff like that, it’s not enjoyable, but that kind of feeling you can relate to.”
