Episode 69: Brian "Head" Welch's "Save Me From Myself", or How Korn Gave Head to Christ lol
Manage episode 480736806 series 2542137
It's a rare album on the P.O.D. Kast that has us eschewing the normal preamble because we know there'll be so much to talk about with the album, but not only is that the case here, it's our longest main episode ever, as we go insanely deep on this insane album that Korn's "Head" was convinced to make after leaving the band and becoming a born-again Christian back in the late 00s. And boy do we dig into everything here, from the insane lyrics to the potentially more insane articles (did Head join a cult? How did he lose all of his money? Why did he bring his 5 year-old daughter on the road with Korn? And more!) to the fact that the music is way better than it has any right to be. It's an album that seems like it shouldn't exist, but we are very glad it does.
