C.O.C.'s Reed Mullin Discusses NEW Album & Bands Connection With Dave Grohl!

Corrosion Of Conformity was established in 1982 in Raleigh, North Carolina by bassist Mike Dean, guitarist Woody Weatherman and drummer Reed Mullin. Ever since then the band has released 7 studio albums, 3 EP's, and 1 live album. At current time the band is working as a three piece, since Pepper Keenan is busy with NOLA's Superstar group Down. According to the band, the door is open for Keenan to return. However, the band opted to record a NEW self-titled album as a three-piece since they found a real intense chemistry that couldn't go to waste.

Candlelight Records confirms February 28, 2012 as the North American release date for the self-titled NEW album from C.O.C. Recorded at Dave Grohl’s Studio 606 in Los Angeles, the album was produced by the band in cooperation with long-time collaborator John Custer. It was mixed by John Lousteau (Foo Fighters) and features artwork by Seldon Hunt (Melvins, High On Fire). The album will be available on standard CD, deluxe digipak, and two exclusive vinyl formats.

During, the bands recent show at the Starland Ballroom in Slayerville, New Jersey, we had the chance to chat with C.O.C. drummer Reid Mullen about the bands eighth studio album, as well as the bands connections with Dave Grohl (ex-Nirvana, now in Foo Fighters), and what he does in order to keep looking and feeling so young. This hilarious and informative interview is not to be missed!
