History
Brian Philip Welch (born June 19, 1970), also known by his stage name Head, is an American musician. He is one of the guitarists and founding member of the nu metal band KoЯn and his solo project Love and Death, where he also provides vocals.
Along with fellow Korn guitarist James "Munky" Shaffer, Welch helped develop Korn's distinctive sound (a mix of sirenlike shards of dissonant guitar that mimicked a turntablist's various effects and rumbling down-tuned riffing) that defined the nu metal aesthetic beginning in the mid-'90s.

At the downbeat of the new millennium there was no bigger, darker, or more deeply influential hard rock band in the world than KoRn. But for lead guitarist Brian Head Welch, a dream come true was giving way to a raging nightmare of self-loathing and addiction. At the end of himself, he made an even harder decision than leaving KoRn. Told with intimate access to the family and band, this genre-bending documentary delivers unprecedented access to one of rock's most unbelievable stories of restoration.

In this sequel to Darren Wilson's groundbreaking film, Finger of God, filmmaker Will Hacker embarks on his own journey around the world in an attempt to discover the very core of Christianity. This step of faith takes Will on an adventure of a lifetime. He filmed with terrorists in the Middle East, with drug addicts in California, is smuggled into the underground church in China, transforms a religiously charged bar in Northern Ireland, and faces down a Muslim king in Africa. The lessons Will learns on his journey, and the miracles and moments of raw love and emotion captured on film, reveal a God who doesn't just want to save you, but is worth everything you have.
