I don’t know what it is about Brian but I could listen to him talk all day, his voice is so relaxing and I’ve heard his story so many times and he’s still able to keep my attention.

Great interview! My son and I met Brian at a church event last May in Nashville. He is truly one of the warmest, most genuine people I have met. You can tell by looking in his eyes. He took the time to really speak with my son who is starting his own band. I never get tired of hearing his story

im not even religious, but i have watched and read almost everything about brians christian journey and i can still listen to his story. I don’t even know what it is exactly, but it calms me so so much for some reason

So much of this interview I can resonate with. I found God in a similar way and have struggled to connect with people who don’t understand the power of it or that my faith doesn’t have to resemble that of anybody else’s. I have respect for anybody on a similar journey and I have a respect for myself that I never really realised I didn’t have until I found that light and felt the love of God within me. I carry it with me every day. So grateful for this interview as I’ve been a fan of Korn since I was thirteen years old. I’m now almost 35. Much love.

It is tremendously inspirational to hear your story, Head. I’ve watched you for years and your honesty has helped me to stop lying to myself. Your message is powerful, your thoughts are clear, and you demonstrate what can happen when you triumph over the darkness within. Thank you. From the bottom of my heart.
