Grey Daze, the Phoenix-based rock band that featured late singer Chester Bennington in his pre-Linkin Park days, has released a new music video for the song “B12.” The track is taken from Grey Daze's forthcoming album, Amends, due out on June 26th.
The clip features live performance footage of the track, intercut with footage from the recording sessions, which featured Korn guitarists Brian “Head” Welch and James “Munky” Shaffer.
Drummer Sean Dowdell told us how the Korn guys got involved with the project: “I was on the phone with Brian from Korn and I said, 'You know, we're doing this thing,' and he's like, 'Oh, I didn't know about it.' And I said, 'Would you mind if I sent you a track and just give me your honest opinion? I want to make sure I'm not off the mark here.' So I sent him the track, and then literally he called me like five minutes later and he goes, 'Dude, oh my God. This is insane. This is really good.' And then I just kind of said, 'Would you want to play guitar on this track?' And he's like, 'Are you kidding me?” So Munky and Head ended up playing on a track.”
Amends features newly recorded music with remastered vocals from the two long out-of-print LPs Grey Daze released independently.
The album was made with the blessing of Chester's widow, parents and family. Additional guests on the LP include Bush's Chris Traynor, P.O.D.'s Marcos Curiel, Breaking Benjamin's Jasen Rauch and others, as well as Chester's 23-year-old son Jaime.
