Retrospective Rewind: Jonathan Davis and James "Munky" Shaffer" of Korn Talk "Life Is Peachy" - ARTISTdirect News: Holed up in Malibu recording with Ross Robinson, there were all kinds of great stories, and vocalist Jonathan Davis and guitarist James "Munky" Shaffer were happy to share them with ARTISTdirect.com editor and Dolor author Rick Florino in this exclusive "Retrospective Rewind" interview. This is the first in a new series and we're proud to induct Life Is Peachy as a new classic…
What do you remember when you think of Life Is Peachy?
Jonathan Davis: I think about a mad dash to get a second record out [Laughs]. That's what I remember!

I knew the second record had to be great or I was going back to the fucking coroner's office. There was all of this stuff going on, so I was really nervous.
James "Munky" Shaffer: After we released our first record, I remember everybody was just so pumped and excited. Everyone kept saying, "There's this new sound." There was an urgency to get back into the studio as soon as we got off the road. We'd been on the road for 18 months, and I remember going straight back into the rehearsal studio and writing new songs. Everything about it was chaotic! We started to see a little bit of a fan base grow, and it was an exciting time.
