Michelle Rodriguez Shares Her Love Of Korn

By Michael Lopez

No, Michelle Rodriguez isn't singing the praises of Orville Redenbacher. The Battle: Los Angeles star recently spoke out about that "other" type of Korn, namely the hard rock band from the 90's. Set to release a brand new album, the group is primed for a comeback and has a very famous fan eager to back them up.

Korn's 10th album, The Path of Totality, comes out December 6. But if you were to ask Michelle, the headbangers' greatest accomplishment arrived back in 1994. The self-titled Korn debut wound up selling millions of units and influenced a generation of listeners.

"Korn was so important to me as a kid," Rodriguez explained in an interview with Artist Direct. "They covered this alienation, this understanding that I am true to myself and I know who I am, but this world is f**ked up and doesn't get it! It was my connection to that hip hop world and that poetry that would come out of rap music. Korn merged both of those for me."

The group's newest effort has been getting great early reviews and could easily crack the Billboard Top 10. And we imagine with its bombastic sounds and gritty undertones, it'll make great on-set music for Michelle as she wraps up the new Resident Evil movie.
