Former LIMP BIZKIT Guitarist, WES BORLAND, Denies Joining FEAR AND THE NERVOUS SYSTEM

Wes Borland has dismissed reports that he has joined FEAR AND THE NERVOUS SYSTEM, the new band formed by KORN guitarist James “Munky” Shaffer.

“I’m not in Munky from KORN’s new band,” Wes said. “I played on two songs, and am doing the artwork, but I’m not in the band and apparently there was a press release that I was told made it sound like I’m a member. The only band I’m in is BLACK LIGHT BURNS.”
