DOMKcast with Brian Head Welch Of Korn

If you're stuck in a negative cycle with no sign of anything
positive in sight, do you swim with the current or have the courage
to go against it? Often we accept our issues as the norm but what
if one positive action lead to a new life filled with perspective
that pushes you closer to a since of happiness. You'll hear more
about the story of Brian Head Welch in episode 103 of the
DOMKcast.

His inspiring journey was told in the showtime documentary "Loud
Crazy Love". Brian quit Korn in 2005, walking away from a 23
million dollar recording contract to raise his daughter full-time.
It was in this time period where he found his spiritual journey as
well-finding peace in christianity. This helped him conquer some of
those demons from years past and focus his attention on his
daughter Jenna who recently turned 21 years old. His journey wasn't
necessarily smooth sailing at this point. Brian had to overcome
many obstacles in his years outside of Korn and grow as a person.
As he points out in the conversation below, his faith does not
necessarily align with the religion that is predominant in America.
Believing that there shouldn't be any categories or castings into a
group. Christianity is one denomination and we should be accepting
of others-not ridiculing them.

Did Bryan listen to much Korn while was away from the band between
the years 2005 and 2013? He admits that he would critique the
albums that were made from time to time. Being a guitarist, he
suggestions were always turn Monkey's guitar up a bit. He said it
was difficult to listen to Korn during this time period.
Ultimately, rejoining the band in 2013 with a more positive outlook
which heavily influenced other members of the band. Korn is older,
wiser, and stronger than ever.

New album "The Nothing" due out September 13th, Brian gave us some
insight on the overall feel of the album. Jonathan Davis dealt with
major emotional issues over the last couple of years and it spills
out into this album. Could we be getting a covers album from Korn
soon? The idea has been tossed around and Brian says it's something
the band has been wanting to do for awhile. They have a few covers
banked and will explore the idea. The anticipation of the new Korn
album "The Nothing" is immense. We anxiously await it's arrival on
September 13th. Hear the full conversation with Brian Head Welch of
Korn on episode 103 of the DOMKcast. #DOMKRocks
