[quote:23rbxh2z]KORN bassist Reginald "Fieldy" Arvizu has joined forces with KORN drummer Ray Luzier, SLIPKNOT guitarist Jim Root, former KORN axeman Brian "Head" Welch and SEVENDUST's Clint Lowery to record an instrumental song to benefit DEFTONES bassist Chi Cheng.

Video footage of Arvizu talking about thsi one-time collaboration can be viewed below.

Chi Cheng is said to be "in semi-conscious state" following a November car accident. He was gravely injured in a November 3 car crash in northern California and has "started tracking with eyes and saying words" but he is not yet fully awake.

Cheng's brother recently wrote in an online post that Chi's insurance company had stopped paying for his treatment in mid-January. His mother posted that Cheng's house was returned to the bank and his dog was given away.

Cheng is 38 years old and is a poet as well as a musician. He released a CD of his poetry called "The Bamboo Parachute" in 2000.

Cheng has been a member of DEFTONES since its formation in 1988. The band released its debut disc, "Adrenaline", in 1995 and scored a platinum record with 2000's "White Pony".[/quote:23rbxh2z]
