Whenever CORROSION OF CONFORMITY releases a new album, folks take notice. But their latest is a true event. It’s been a dozen years since C.O.C. recorded new material with vocalist/guitarist Pepper Keenan at the helm. In that time, there have been rumors, whispers and outright allegations that the legendary Southern rock outfit would reunite to blow the doors off the whole damn scene again.
In 2014, after nearly a straight decade traversing the globe as a guitarist with New Orleans supergroup DOWN, Keenan reconnected with the core C.O.C. trio of Woody Weatherman, Mike Dean and Reed Mullin to hit the road hard.
Ladies and gentlemen, the long wait is over. CORROSION OF CONFORMITY have returned with No Cross No Crown - an album that somehow sounds as though no time has passed between 2005’s In The Arms Of God and today. Some of these new jams sound like could’ve easily been on Wiseblood or Deliverance, two of C.O.C.’s most revered records.
