Corrosion Of Conformity Unleash Three NEW Tracks!
Candlelight Records, together with partners Decibel Magazine and Pitchfork Media, are premiering today songs from the forthcoming NEW album from C.O.C. Produced by John Custer, the self-titled album is the first NEW recording from the North Carolina-based band in six years and is the first to feature material written by the esteemed 'Animosity' trio in over a decade.
Available now for listening, Decibel Magazine is streaming “The Doom” while Pitchfork Media is streaming the album’s closer “Time Of Trials.” Each song showcases the band’s unique sound and continued commitment to diversity. Guitarist Woody Weatherman says, “…too much pork for just one fork,” when discussing the unusual two-song launch. “I like the idea of having two tunes premiering at the same time,” he continues. Vocalist/bassist Mike Dean notes, “I slipped in a rough form of ‘The Doom’ on Full Metal Jackie's radio program back in early November. This is now the official premiere in its finished form. And with Pitchfork playing ‘Time Of Trials,’ we are excited and await fan reactions."

England’s Metal Hammer, in celebration of today’s premieres, launched a special C.O.C. video via their online television channel that includes both songs and a pictorial of the band with information about the forthcoming album. Check it out now!
C.O.C. has already launched exclusive, pre-order bundles that include limited band-direct items plus the deluxe digipak version of the record (featuring extended packaging and two additional songs) and the American vinyl pressing. To celebrate today’s premieres, Candlelight has launched via the official label webstore each of the four planned formats for the record plus a webstore exclusive. See the link below.
The band will perform next at The Orange Peel in Asheville, North Carolina before heading out on their recently announced headline tour beginning March 1. The band plans a set that will include many of the new album’s choice cuts as well selections from their earlier albums. “‘Your Tomorrow,’ ‘Rat City,’ and ‘The Doom’ all got great response while we were out with Clutch for a brief wintery outing,” says Dean. “The new songs are noggin’ nodders and seemed to fit in very well with our older classics,” adds Weatherman. “Folks were having a good time which is what it is all about,” he confirms.
Corrosion Of Conformity will be released via Candlelight Records on February 14 in North America; a day earlier for Europe. Confirmed dates on the band’s upcoming North American tour with Torche, Valient Thorr, A Storm Of Light are below.
