HEAD on FOX NEWS!

Just a few questions and coments.

I was wondering if anyone knew if Head was going to put a band together and go tour? Also does anyone know the answers to the questions for the contest or will they be posted after the contest? Some I can't figure out. Like the hidden track and stuff. Also I would like to give props to God and Head for his new album. The cd and his book go hand in hand. The first song L.O.V.E. reminds me of the song by Skillet called Savior. Mostly how the words are written. Anyways. Thats all for now. Later ya'll!

Music Review: Brian 'Head' Welch - Save Me From Myself

Frankly, I am surprised I like this album as much as I do. I have to admit that the prospect of a 'Head' solo album did not hold much excitement for me.

I am a Korn fan from way back. From the moment I first heard the cymbal-tapping opening to "Blind" I knew this was a band for me. They were different, heavy, and insidiously catchy. Sure, they came after Rage Against the Machine and Faith No More (well, "Epic" anyway), but it is Korn that led the so-called nu-metal movement of the early and mid-1990s. There is no denying they hit at the right time with the right sound, influencing scores of bands that would follow them. However, I always saw them as a band where the sum was greater than the parts. With Save Me From Myself in my hands, I am willing to retract that statement, but only partially.

Welch's story is an interesting one. He rose to fame through the mid to late-1990s as a founding member of Korn, consistently turning out strong music. In the early 2000s Welch became increasingly distant from the band. Years of touring and living the rock and roll lifestyle were taking a costly toll on the guitarist. Addictions to alcohol and methamphetamine were tearing his life apart. This led to the momentous decision to leave Korn in 2005, after which he went into rehab, kicked his demons, and found a new spiritual life. All of this was chronicled in his memoirs, which bears the same name as this album.

Now, three years after leaving Korn, a band that is still going despite hemorrhaging band members, Welch has made his return to the music scene, writing and producing an album of surprisingly potent music. It doesn't hurt that he also surrounded himself with world-class musicians such as Trevor Dunn (bass: Mr. Bungle, Fantomas), Tony Levin (bass: King Crimson, Liquid Tension Experiment), Josh Freeze (drums: A Perfect Circle, Nine Inch Nails), and Archie J. Muise Jr. (guitar).

MUSIC VIDEO CONTROVERSY

HEAD’S RESPONSE TO VIDEO CONTROVERSY,

CD BEING PULLED OFF OF SHELVES AT SOME RETAILERS,

AND OPEN CHALLENGE TO CONSERVATIVES

I have received a handful of messages from some conservative people complaining about the sex and drug references in my new music video for FLUSH; and, I have recently learned that some select retailers are pulling my CD from their shelves because of my music video’s content. So, I wanted to give an explanation of what the video means to me; and to address those select retailers that are pulling the CD from their shelves:

The video for FLUSH is about Crystal Meth addiction and the crazy things anyone addicted to Meth will do while they’re high or to get their fix. Everything the models were doing in the video is what I was wrapped up in while I was addicted to Meth. The video is a very realistic look at the addiction and where it will lead you if you get hooked. I understand the images of the models may be too much for some people, but honestly, I was just trying to be real with what happened in my life and show where I was, as well as where I am at now.

I was totally imprisoned by Meth (Straight Jacket).

I would do anything to get my Meth (Models being obsessed with Pink Substance).

I was totally kinky and freaky while I was on Meth (Models touching each other and licking Pink Substance off of each other).

I got emotionally, spiritually and physically sick while I was on Meth (Models puking up black tar all over their faces and everywhere else).
