Brian "Head" Welch Discusses KORN's Future + LOVE AND DEATH!

On February 19, KORN posted a NEW group shot that includes Brian "Head" Welch as a member of the band (peep it HERE). The whole reuniting of the band begun last summer, when former guitarist Brian "Head" Welch joined the band at the Carolina Rebellion festival at the legendary Rockingham Speedway in Rockingham, North Carolina to perform the bands classic hit song "Blind".

Welch left KORN in 2005 to become a born-again Christian after years of hard drug and alcohol abuse while in the band. Although Welch has a NEW band called LOVE AND DEATH, "Head" is happy with his current relationship with the members of KORN. Loudwire recently chatted with "Head" about LOVE AND DEATH, and about his future in KORN. Check it out:

"Head" is scheduled to join the band at a number of shows this spring/summer; including the “Rock On The Range” festival in Columbus, Ohio in May (more info HERE). "Head" will also be part of next year's edition of the Rock am Ring and Rock im Park festivals, set to take place June 7-9, 2013 in the German towns of Nürburgring and Nürnberg, respectively.
