Behind-the-scenes footage from the making of KORN's music video for the song "Black Is The Soul" can be seen below.

Guitarist James "Munky Shaffer added: "I feel that this songwriting and production paired with the aesthetic look of the video shows a maturity and growth from the band that is continually evolving."
