"Start the Healing" is a song by American nu metal band Korn, released as the first single from their fourteenth studio album Requiem.
[9][10] - Tim Saccenti[3][4][6][7][9][10][11][12][13] Korn had teased the release of this single earlier in the month through purchasing billboards[4] worldwide[14] featuring the band's logo on a gray static background, with a QR code and the song's name in the lower right quadrant.
[16] Upon scanning this QR code, mobile telephone users would be redirected to an augmented-reality Instagram[12] filter featuring a 3D model of a hand grasping a baby's face from the top,[15] a graphic which would be later revealed to be the focus of the Requiem album cover.
Cryptic promotional video snippets by the band heavily referenced "11:11",[17] which would eventually turn out to be the release date of the song, as well as the symbol for infinity.
A Brooklyn Vegan review of the single states it "nails a balance between sounding like classic Korn and feeling fresh",[6] with Rock Cellar Magazine reinforcing this sentiment, comparing it to a mixture between more recent albums and Untouchables.
