No matter what you believe about Brian, in the sense of his faith and stuff, you'd have to admit he's a totally different person now, and I think it's awesome. Everything I see involving "Korn" either includes Brian, or ONLY has Brian in it. He's doing a ton of these type of interviews now. It's crazy.

[@BikiniDeathSquad]

that's because the rest of the band (actually Im not sure about the drummer) are all pretty socially awkward. brian just has more charisma for some reason, so that's who gets put out front in the media.

I find that line lovable too. I feel what he's saying 'cause I too began seeing these little miracles when I was 28, I'm 35 now, married to a beautiful woman inside and out. I'm about to be father to a boy 😁. Been a bastard most of my life but it felt like He's giving me nudges to steer me into this happy life. The faith really is real bro.

I shed a few tears talking with him ... - a truly blessed soul ✨ i told him - oh you are so nice unlike the rest of your band 🤣🤣🤣 and that's okay too i say what i mean 👍🏼

[@TranzparentMethods]

If ever there was a person to turn people on to "spirituality", it would be this dude. He's been through hell and back again and came out a better person. He's still "that dude". I disliked Korn after he left, it felt like after Head left, they were trying to jump on every trend possible. The untitled album, where they tried to work with pop music producers, the unfortunate dub step album... "The Paradigm Shift" was the first Korn album in 10 years that I actually liked. "Take A Look In The Mirror", was ehhhh, but still better than the albums between that and "Paradigm Shift".

[@7907-u8h]

TALITM was at a time in which they were pretty much hanging by their pinky nail. And "barely" speaking to one another besides for the live shows. At that time, Head was really into his drug habits (literally doing it multiple times a day according to his book) so I'm not surprised it's listed as one of the most "eh" Korn albums. They just weren't in a good place at that time
