IoMP 84: Collin Saw Korn at Canada Life Place in London
What happens when you put Korn, Gojira, and Loathe under the same roof at Canada Life Place in London, Ontario? You get one of the most memorable nights of the Kanada 2025 tour—and Collin was there to take it all in. All though Tom couldn’t go to the show (he had a case of the ‘tism headache), Collin brought his friend Justin to help recap the night for Tom and give their thoughts on everything.
From the first impressions of the venue—great communication, decent parking, and hilariously broken plastic seats—to Korn’s clever move of setting up an outside merch booth, we cover the little details that made the night smoother (and sometimes stranger).
But the real story is in the music: Loathe warmed up the crowd with mixed reactions, Gojira stole the spotlight with pyro and power, and Korn reminded everyone why they’re still kings of nu-metal.
Whether you’ve been following Korn since the ‘90s, worship at the altar of Gojira, or are just curious how a non-metal fan like Justin walked away stunned by the performance, this episode gives you the full play-by-play of the night.
Hit play and join the conversation—you’ll feel like you were right there in the pit.
