Issues is the fourth studio album by American nu metal band Korn.

A statement on the band's site relates: "We're so psyched about [the new album] that we wanted to give all you guys, the true Korn fans—a gift from us."

Also at this time, the band attempted to start an online chain email, by posting the letter online and asking fans to email the letter to 10 other people and to then sign the "I Downloaded the Korn Single for Free" guestbook on the band's site.

For each person who signed, Korn donated 25 cents to the charities Childhelp USA and Children of the Night.

The band admits that with Brendan O'Brien working alongside them, they were more focused during recording because he didn't let them just fool around and party, so there was a lot less drinking this time around.
