Brian Head Welch: From Metal Madness to Spiritual Awakening

I felt a love that I never felt before in my life, and it was just like unconditional it was.
When you think of rock legends, Brian Head Welch of Korn and Love and Death might come to mind. But behind the fame and heavy riffs lies a deeply personal story of addiction and recovery. In this episode of Rock Recovery, host Jane Gordon sits down with Welch to unravel his intense journey through the highs and lows of meth and alcohol addiction. Welch doesn't hold back as he recounts how his substance abuse affected his family life and career.
He paints a vivid picture of the chaotic lifestyle that came with being in one of the world’s biggest metal bands. 'We were only sober for just a couple of hours a day in Korn,' he admits, shedding light on the dark side of rock stardom. The turning point? Finding faith. Welch's transformation began when he became a Christian, leading him to leave Korn to focus on fatherhood and his solo career.
His debut Christian album, Save Me from Myself, marked a new chapter in his life. Now back with Korn, Welch shares how spirituality played a crucial role in his recovery. He also offers heartfelt advice for those grappling with addiction and their loved ones. This episode doesn't just highlight Welch's personal triumphs but also touches on the evolving attitudes towards drinking and partying in the music industry.
Younger bands are now more aware of the importance of responsible drinking, signaling a shift in rock culture. So, whether you're a fan of heavy metal or someone seeking inspiration in their own recovery journey, this conversation promises to resonate deeply.
