Performer Notes

Original songs by Jonathan Davis and Richard Gibbs.
Music composed by Jonathan Davis and Richard Gibbs.
In Anne Rice's book QUEEN OF THE DAMNED, recurring vampire character Lestadt awakes from a lengthy hibernation and proceeds to remake himself into a rock star of global proportions who ends up attracting the unwanted attentions of head vampire Queen Akasha. Although the late Aaliyah plays the title role in the film, the accompanying soundtrack contains nary a stitch of hip-hop or R&B, instead cleaving to the hard and heavy sounds conjured up by Korn's Jonathan Davis and ex-Oingo Boingo keyboardist Richard Gibbs. Due to contractual obligations, Davis was prevented from singing these songs, therefore the quintet of cuts composed by this duo are sung by an impressive array of talent from the nu-metal world.
Marilyn Manson slithers his way through the chilling "Redeemer," Orgy's Jay Gordon haunts the ominous "Slept So Long," and Linkin Park's Chester Bennington makes his solo debut with the eerie "System." Elsewhere, Static-X's namesake Wayne Static growls through the thumping "Not Meant For Me" and Disturbed's David Draiman pours himself into the sweeping "Forsaken," featuring the Middle Eastern-flavored contributions by violinist Shankar.
