CMU reports:

Korn have remixed their track 'Y'All Want A Single' to feature some of
Howard Stern's recent rants regards the current crackdown by media
regulators in the US over, well, anything really. Since Clear Channel axed Stern's show off the six stations in their network that carried it, Stern, always keen to be the guy the establishment are kicking, has found a new lease of life ranting daily about how it's the end of interesting radio in America (he's right as it happens). The Korn track was already an assault on over regulated radio and overly commercial record labels, so the Stern rants fit in nicely.

Korn frontman Jonathan Davis says: "The stuff we show in the video for 'Y'All Want A Single' [is the stuff] the music industry doesn't want kids to know about. Everyone is in bed with everyone in the industry. One corporation owns all the video channels, one corporation owns all the radio stations, and all the venues we play at are also the promoters. It's a whole monopoly. They basically deem what kids are going to hear. [This video] is making a statement to stand up for every artist that's been screwed around. Ultimately, it's the fan getting screwed over (too) - screwed out of a lot of new entertainment. There are those kids that have the energy to go out and look and find underground bands, but the average 14-year-old is fed what is cool by what the corporations are behind."

The remixed track is online.

Marty's band, Growing Old Disgracefully, can be found at: Disgraceful Music. His Cthulhu tales can be found at Temple of Dagon.
