Love and Death

If you know the band Korn, you probably have heard of their guitarist, Brian "Head" Welch. He was a backing vocalist and one of the founding members of the band. In 2005, he left Korn after becoming a Christian. He released a solo album in 2008 titled "Save Me from Myself", and in 2013, he formed the band Love and Death and released an album titled "Between Here & Lost". I picked that album up on a whim recently, and found that I really like it. If you're into Korn you're probably going to really like this one. As is the case with most of my posts, I'll share a few of my favorite tracks and encourage you to check the rest out for yourself.
One of my favorite tracks off this album is titled "Chemicals", about the struggle with drug addiction:


Here's "I W8 4 U", featuring Mattie Montgomery of For Today:

Here's "By the Way":

One stand-out track on this album is "Whip It", a Devo cover song. Yeah, you read that right. DEVO. But give it a listen, it's almost nothing like the original. And I like it:

Crazy, right? :)

Well, that's a decent idea of what you're getting into with Love and Death. Let me know what you think, as always.
