- Korn guitarist Head joins Robb to discuss his band Love and Death’s new album, writing with Breaking Benjamin, the completely insane early-days of Korn, the massive success of “follow the leader“, the toxic environment that caused him to quit Korn at its peak, his two year addiction to methamphetamines, the warts ‘n all documentary he put out about his journey towards sobriety “Loud Krazy Love”, and how religion has kept him sane.

He’s always been my favorite Korn member, and the most talented .
Would agree
Love And Death is hella underrated.
He seems a genuinely nice guy as well and I love the fact that he doesn’t take himself very seriously. A good sense of humour is important in life.
most talented is j.d. ngl but head is GOD
@@timeswehadwewonthaveagain6980 he may of had songwriters but he can play guitar, bass, drums etc
Dude hearing brian give his props to frontmans and being shy about doing lead vox makes me appreciate him more. Very humble
This man is a true hero. The stuff he does, just a solid, good dude 100%. Thank you Head for all you do bro. Glad you're still with KoRn, new album is fire.
Also Korn has helped me through Cancer at 14..id put on korn during chemo and just John davis's lyrics was so helpful
Try the Bible.
@@EQOAnostalgia how about.... N.O.
Hellyeah, that’s awesome!!!!!!!! Korn’s lyrics are one of the reasons why their one of my top favorite numetal bands, metal bands in general, and bands in general!!!!!!!!!
Head and Fieldy have been 2 of my top role models I’ve looked up to as Christians and them and Jonathan Davis have been some of the role models I’ve looked up to as people who’ve gone through shit in this life and are real about it
I grew up with Ray Luzier in West Newton Pa. He grew up on a farm so being humble is who Ray is. He still is very family oriented and when he comes back home, he is the furthest thing from a rock star! A little known fact about Ray alot of people don't know is we played baseball together for years...Ray has some skills on the diamond.
Have you ever heard Ray ever cover any Rush songs on drums? I would love to see him play some Rush covers, I bet he could play them pretty accurately! I heard him say in an interview when he was younger he would cover Rush songs on drums.
@leadme2thebliss21 ray covered every song you could think of when we were younger. I'll tell you a cool story, when we were in high-school, Ray had posters all over hid bedroom walls of guys like George Lynch, Billy Sheehan, basically all the big metal bands of the 80s. Fast forward a few decades and there's videos all over TH-cam of Ray jamming with a lot of those same amazing musicians we once idolized! Pretty cool right.
I meet Head at a book signing and he let my wife and I on his tour bus, when he stopped and played The Prophet Bar in Dallas. Korn is the reason I started playing the drums, so thanks Brian, for being incredible. Robb, incredible interview 👏.
Hearing these guys talk about their careers at this point in their lives is really cool. I’m the same age as these guys. I was in bands when Korn were just starting out. I used to go to all of their San Diego shows, used to take photos of them at small ass clubs, got to know Head, Munky, John and David. Head hooked me up with comp tickets and a backstage pass for their show with Manson and Danzig. Brian is such a down to earth, good hearted guy. Here I am at 50 years old, watching this interview and just thinking of those day long gone by. I’m very proud of Brian for raising his daughter alone. I’m proud of all the guys for the success they have enjoyed for decades. I hope Korn keeps making records for another couple of decades. Robb sounds like a cool dude too.
Head is so down to earth, it was great to meet him while he was doing the meet and greets for his movie
I’m glad he found his peace. Jesus is good like that. 😁
This interview was great, but you can really tell Robb puts up a front whenever Head brings up anything to do with weakness or flaws. One example among many: Head trying to relate about being nervous at first shows. Robb: nah dude, I never got nervous, shit was always awesome
Rob has no spine and does whatever is popular and he is a terrible lyricist
Can't help Lovin a brother who wears his faith on his sleeve. Good heart and Great musician.
Head is such a cool dude. I’ve been following him for a while and he never changes his tune. Very real dude. You know what you’re going to get with him
I saw Korn and Machine Head open for Ozzy in 1994 when I was 14yo for Ozzy. Ozzy was sick and Korn Played covers for an hour with Machine head to cover the time. honestly one of the best shows ever. SF BAY scene was fucking amazing. Thanks guys!
Damn that’s a sick show!
incredible interview. I've been off speeds for seven years now. used to pop them up like candy. that shit brought me so deep into my own darkness it almost killed me. i have had an overdose where i just blacked out and fell to the ground like a bag of potatoes. hearing two of my favorite guitarists talk so openly about their addictions is a proof of humility unto itself. Both Machine Head and Korn have had a major impact in my life and it still does today. i am glad i survived. Music has been my medication. thank you so much for inspiring this metal head to find a guitar, plug an amp and annoy the hell out of the world.
@@timeswehadwewonthaveagain6980 Oh shut up. This person just opened up to two of his favorite artists and was brave enough to put it out there for many to see. I find that inspiring. What you did is straight trolling. Which we all know is more annoying than anything.
KoRn really got back into familiar territory with those last 2 albums. Those are bangers.
The Nothing is phenomenal!!! Absolute masterpiece
@@franklaher8496 Especially with the circumstances surrounding that album. Some dark stuff.
@@caustichymnproductions Most Certainly, to me it’s DJ’s best writing and best overall album from start to finish.
@@franklaher8496 One of their best records for sure, I'd probably put it #3 just after the first 2 records.
@@franklaher8496 Their beat since untouchables
Korn have always been a band i liked but never fully delved into as i'm a thrash/ death kinda guy but after listening to Brian i'll listen to them more, What a brilliant , nice , lovely dude! He's been though the gamut of life and he's so grateful for everything! WHat a legend! Thanks Rob! This was ace! Thanks Brian! , You're a wizard of rad! Peace!
then you gonna love they're album "Take a look in the mirror"
@@richiexm2436 Thanks man , i'll check it out!
Back in 2009 or 10
Love and death came to niverville, MB and a friend of mine knew the driver for the band. Asked him to ask Brian if we could meet him before the show, and he said yes.
So I went in and had his book with me, Brian instantly grabbed it and signed it for me, asked me if I was in a band, he could tell I was a guitarist, I guess based on how I look. I was very starstruck but I wish I could have jammed a bit with him. None the less it was awesome.
Later in 2011, a childhood friend of mine's sister was dating the guy who made the ikorn ap. The guy and I talked music for a long time and mentioned that he was going to interview the band. So he went and did that, and little did I know but he mentioned to JD about me and how I play and write music.
JD, on video sent a shout out addressed to me, it made my year.
Weird and lucky man..
Hope I get the chance to cross paths again, I actually know what I want to ask now, years after
Wow - really looking forward to this. Robb, you have really scaled some new heights with this show. We all feel we have got to know you a bit better as well. The show has a very personal touch to it which allows the subjects of your interview to candidly open up about uncomfortable topics from their lives.
For real. This is my favorite talk show/podcast/whatever.
Robb Flynn > Joe Rogan
@@blastbeatindustries3191 Joe Rogan is decent, but I find that his show gets dominated by his own opinions. Robb I feel allows the guests to take the interview in the direction they are comfortable with. That’s a big difference between them. And obviously Robb being a musician himself means that he can relate to what his guests are talking about.
Iam celebrating this Podcast. I was 10 when i was into korn and maschine head. To see an adult conversation between early 90's Hero that made their music and I was celebrating this humble and adult thing is so strong. I wish this 2 guys all the best all the fans and all musiclovers stay healthy and stay strong we all hope we can see you on the stage again and just have a celebration of bands music and the moment we all can rockin together. Best Saturday Rob you are Lit and you gave me and honest insight i will never forget and i will never reget that i supported each of you guys you deserved it and iam happy with the balance that you have. be blessed
Excellent episode. I love hearing how both of you guys have found some peace and balance in your lives now, and have gone to THERAPY :DD You guys rule, I love how Brian started interviewing you back and we got great stories out of both of you.
This is awesome! Brian is the coolest dude! Thank you for having him on your show, Rob. I've been hoping for this interview for a while! :)
Such a humble and cool dude, especially for someone who’s such a talent and massive star
Brillant Podcast, great stories! My 16yo self back in 1997, I got my Life Is Peachy's cover signed by every member before a show in Switzerland (Limp Bizkit as opening act) and I remember Brian leaving me the best impression of being a sweet guy.
God bless your heart Brian Welch in Jesus name amen
You are my godly love my soulmate babe Brian Philip Welch my babe forever and for eternity thank you Jesus hallelujah
@@analicon6404 Ease up lil momma
@@analicon6404 dang, I mean blessing him is one thing, but wanting to BLESS him is another thing you will never have a chance to do.
I saw Korn on their first UK tour in 1995 at The Boardwalk in Manchester.
It was £5 on the door and the debut album had still not been released in the UK.
How did I hear about Korn?
Robb Flynn mentioned this cool new band in Kerrang! magazine.
I saw Korn for the first time on the Life is peachy tour in U.K. a couple years after you.
You lucky, lucky bastard.
Fantastic interview! This was definitely one of the better interviews with Brian that I've seen. Thanks, Robb!
I was thinking the exact same thing after watching this! Probably the chillest I've seen Brian from these things.
Finally got to hear the infamous gang fight story that started Machine Head.
Great story and great reaction from Brian :O
What an absolutely awesome interview Robb. Brian is such a humble genuine person. I love to listen to him and he has helped me IMMENSELY through so much of my own personal experiences. Super happy for this. Thank you so much.
When Brian mentioned playing shows being sick, what immediately came to mind is when Robb got really sick in early 2018. I was nervous that the Chicago show was going to get canceled but he came through strong. It was the last time I got to see Phil and Dave perform with them live. It was an AMAZING show. Despite having a soar throat Robb did fantastic. That was some brutal flu you were fighting man!
I met Brian at my moms church in Bellevue Washington after I got out of Jail for a gun charge 7 years ago got a picture with him he was such a real human being and genuine man. His personal story is so heavy and amazing anyone who doesn't know should research his story.
Aw, you got a pic with him?? That's awesome! He seems like someone who genuinely would enjoy doing that.
Brian had a real experience with Christ & when something great happens to you, you want to share it. So when he said he went crazy with it at first, that’s normal. Finding balance is the key. It’s true, anything in extreme is bad whether it’s food, alcohol, drugs or religion. It’s nice finding people you love & respect feel the same way. Great interview ❤️
Thank you for seeing it as it is. So many people are judging him and saying he’s no longer a christian. But he didn’t say that?
@@zoescarborough4336 he said: I am done with that!
@@brynn_luv_gaza39 when and what point did he say that?
@@zoescarborough4336 "So many people are judging him"?
Wait a minute, was Brian not judging Christians? ".....cause there's nothing worse than a freakin’ irritating, you know, religious person shoving it down your throat and there is nothing worse than that and you saw in the documentary, Jonathan saying I hate those mother f*ckers and so you know it, people can't stand em.....'" 52:00-53:00
There is a right way to judge and a wrong way to judge.
Reread Matthew 7:1-5, John 8:7, John 7:19, John the Baptist judged, The Apostles judged. The Bible says Christians are commanded to judge RIGHTOUSLY. So the BIG question do you think Brian judged righteously here? Doesn't the Bible say not to judge humanistically, that is by human standards rather than by God’s law? Something to think about.
@@WatchtowerofBabel you make a good point. I believe there HAS to be a balance between the two though. Me personally? I didn’t interpret his words as him judging other Christians. I interpreted it as him judging HIMSELF and taking responsibility. If he felt like HE was shoving his beliefs down people’s throats, thats his personal walk, his personal life. I believe its not up for us to judge what he meant and cast him out without hearing him out. Thats all :)
That’s explains why I kept hearing RED, I had no idea Jasen Rauch was in the band with Brian. That’s awesome, always loved his style
So when you listen to Love and Death it definitely sounds familiar which makes me think HEAD is the rhythm architect of KORN. L-n-D is so damn good.... I love Head's journey. Great guy and a true artist.
This is the first of the podcasts I'd seen from you, and I really got a lot of comfort and solace from it. You guys are survivors, and total gems. With love and good wishes, take care!
Brian is the best man. Such a respectable humble guy.
This dude is my favorite korn member. Very intelligent dude
Head is the biggest bro - love that guy. I would love to hear old timey Bakersfield stories all day.
Love head...I'm 51 and a fan from the start .they 'korn' are true innovation of a genre of metal..
If nu metal is a thing,.they own
it..
Glad he's healthy and doing well.
And Robb is my boy, get back to Manchester England Robb as soon as possible once Rona fucks off..
You know Manchester loves you Robb and you know that we own the circle pit....🤟🤟🤟
Great podcast Rob , its so great to see Brian open op so nice , and the reason is that he knows you for so long . Its not like on other interviews when they keep asking him about Korn and he gives same response. Love this keep it up.
Excellent, simply Excellent!
Killer interview. I appreciate everything you guys have done for music. Part of the soundtrack of my life. Much love MFH! Korn!
WOW 😲😳 This may be one of your biggest and best guests yet. Good going! 👍
This was a fantastic pod cast! I thoroughly enjoyed it, and it really made me sentimental. 🖤🤘
It's funny how Head brings up how their album "Issues" is a "return to form" in a sense and how it's one of his favorite Korn records. I completely agree. I've been saying the same thing for years and most people thought I was crazy. I always thought Issues was such an underrated and underappreciated album. The raw emotion and production is just out of this world good. The chrous on "Somebody Someone" alone helped me get through a rough detox. It's such a powerful song and the whole album is crazy trip. I'm glad Head feels the same way. Awesome podcast Robb. You are really becoming a master at this good sir.
A true masterpiece.
1st episode of this show I ever watched. Love it so far!!!!!!! Head’s been one of my top role models as a Christian and in general as a person who’s gone through shit in this life and is real about it.
Having met Brian a few times through my band performing and on the scene in general, he’s such a good dude. Always took the extra time just to catch up and give a damn.
That is very cool. You should consider yourself lucky for that! Brian inspired me to start playing guitar back around 1998!
Hi Brian.... I pray Jesus leads you to read this. I don't know you or your music, but remember you joining a conference at the gathering in Moravian falls in 2015. I was visiting from the uk. I didn't speak to you, but you were introduced briefly to us by Brian the pastor. The Lord has put you on my heart so so much this week? I have lifted you in prayer and could see that strongman that holds you. The Lord knows, He knows your innermost being and He wants to release you! He never gives up on us. He loves you so much Brian and I had these verses for you Romans 8:38-39 and 2 Corinthians 5:17 ... bless you so much in Jesus mighty name!
Had the pleasure to meet him and he is such a cool dude.
Korn & Machine Head Tour!!! Make it happen!!
What an awesome interview love how honest Head is
At 36 years old I’ve finally completely quit weed cigarettes and alcohol
( haven’t done anything hard since I was 22)
And I’m definitely in the Brian camp of addiction I quit drinking 6 months ago when I quit cigarettes
But 2 weeks ago bought a bottle of Jack to celebrate my 10 year wedding anniversary, drank every night for the next 8 days even ordered 2 bottles from an alcohol delivery app when the shops were closed, I’m an all or nothing guy so I guess it’s gotta be nothing for me, just glad I didn’t touch a ciggie during those 8 days
I envy your self control Rob
The part about Ray liking everything on Instagram, haha
Never met Brian, but it seems very down to earth and appreciative!
“The mighty ... MIGHTY” cracks me up every time
Two of my musical heroes and helpers in life on one podcast. Say what!
Nice Interview. I think my most favourite Korn album would be 'Issues'. That one had been with me through some rough times back then. Still gettin goosebumps listening to the song 'Trash'.
So glad to find your channel! Looking forward to seeing more.
Two fucking legends...much love from Portugal! Rob I’ll see us again In “Coliseu do Porto” once more cause I don’t miss a single tour of Machine Head when you guys come to Oporto...and please teach korn the way to north of Portugal! Blessings
I'm sad to hear about him drinking again but I'm glad he stopped that
Loved listening to you guys! I'm the same age as Brian so your chat takes me back to back in the day the best memories when life was one big party! Love Brian. Great interview. Sending possitive metal vibes to you for London.
Really appreciate all the love ❤️. Much love ❤️ I have got for you all. 😘
Have a lovely weekend
Brain 😍🥰😘
Love Brian!!..I am the same I had no self confidence and self hatred since birth it took me to my later 40's to come out it .. I had so many flaws and was a hard Chick to crack according to my potential suitors back in the day and still now hahaha and after some abusive relationships ...I am single and have been for 11 years no dating!!.... I was super picky in dating and hyper sensitive to my flaws .. and thank you gentlemen for being candid and open about your insecurities also ..This is a great conversation to show your vulnerability to the opposite sex..and deep down we all have something, no matter who we are.. I could relate in many ways in this conversation ...Just an awesome all around pod cast!! Thank You and quite hilarious hahahaha
1:04:19
This is like Brian Welch is describing me. I was the same way....I was skinny most of my life, insecure. You want me to talk to a girl, I need to have few shoots, before that, to open up....No way I would do it otherwise..Then I started drinking some more, and more. Then I did some crazy shit, driving my car through red light..I would get into the fights,
borrowing money to drink more, had sex with girls in my car..Now I`am 44 years old....Then I was like 22 or something....it was a crazy time forme for sure...

wow - i had a deep conversation with Brian one time in dallas texas
and we were both 100% sober
... i thought he was really kind & genuine & i was the one who felt very insecure & insignificant while talking to him at the time in my life ....
and honestly i did not even think of him as a famous rock star nor did not care about anything to do with korn music 🤣🤣🤣
humble soul
i only was able to meet him because of my friend & boss Vinnie Paul Abbott 💖
i always remember how nice Brian was to me - thank you for being real ✌🏼 and sharing your story
a lot of my family moved to Bakersfield California in the 1940s from Oklahoma and still live there -crazy i use to go visit there when i was a little kid 🤣
hell yeah Korn& Machine head tour should happen yall would Rock and tear shit up !!!!!
Awesome interview Rob! 🤘

I really wish I’d thrown up when I did Heroin because I wouldn’t of continued to do it for 17yrs!! I am on maintenance medication now and have turned it around, that was my crutch and I respect ✊🏻 the fact that “Head” has his religion as his crutch (we all have one to keep sane) I don’t believe in religion but if others do and it works for them great 👍🏻
Thanks to Robb because “NFR” has got me through this pandemic 😷 and the guests have been great 😊, it’s great to see your heroes are human beings with the same “issues” as all of us and being open about it 🤘🏻
“Do you know who I am??” 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Another great interview dude!!!

Ridiculous comments against Brian. It is difficult to think that's why people judge. Brian is such a good dude, and this was a great chat. Thanks Robb, thanks Brian!!
oh lord what a lovely conversation
45:58 Head saying some positive things about David Silveria.
Its was really nice to hear :)
I wish brian would take the chance to talk to david just one last time before they clock out.
