Last month, vocalist-guitarist Brian “Head” Welch, formerly of Korn, premiered his new single, Paralyzed, Now he’s unleashing the music video for the same song. Check out the clip below.
About the track, Head says, Paralyzed was one of the first songs co-written with Producer Jason Rauch. He came to me with the idea and we both dove into it until it was all there. Jason is really helping me get back to crushing riffs. My first solo CD was an experimental album so the riffs were definitely lacking. Today’s a new day and I’m excited about the future. ‘Paralyzed’ is only a taste of what’s to come.
Welch is currently working on material for a new EP, which he expects to release early next year. He said, “It is definitely some of the best music I’ve ever been a part of.”
Welch‘s debut album, Save Me From Myself, was released in September 2008 on his Driven Music Group label. The CD sold 7,800 copies in the United States in its first week of release to land at position No. 63 on The Billboard 200 chart.
Welch exited Korn in February 2005 after announcing that he had been saved by Jesus Christ and was devoting his life and music to Christianity. He has subsequently issued two books and a solo album.
The musician said in a May 2009 interview with Noisecreep that he was happy with his decision to leave Korn, although he added, “If I ever felt God lead me back to Korn for some reason, I’d go.”
