Korn, Evanescence for 2007 Family Values?

Korn will reportedly be joined by Evanescence, metal band Lamb of God and punk act Aiden on the 2007 Family Values tour, according to a promotional e-card sent out by Korn's label, Virgin Records. Although Korn's management did say that an official tour announcement would be coming soon, it stressed that the lineup for this year's edition has not yet been confirmed. All Korn singer Jonathan Davis would tell us is that Family Values is on his band's agenda: "We definitely want to do it this year, and we're getting in the middle of it, trying to find the bands that we want on there, and you know how that goes, I can't say anything until we get it. But hopefully it'll be in charge this year, we'll be going for it this summer."

Last year's Family Values package was the first since 2001 and featured Deftones, Stone Sour, 10 Years, Flyleaf and others in addition to headliners Korn.

A CD and DVD from last summer's tour was released in late December.

Previous versions of the tour, which first began in 1998, have included Linkin Park, Stone Temple Pilots, Limp Bizkit, Filter, Staind and more.

Korn is currently in the studio working on its eighth studio album. The band's MTV Unplugged performance, which features Evanescence singer Amy Lee on the song "Freak On A Leash," debuts online on Friday, February 23rd. It premieres on MTV on March 2nd, with a CD arriving on March 6th.
