Corrosion of Conformity - “Tour 2026”
CORROSION OF CONFORMITY are back. And in a big way. Reborn for the last time, one might say. Two years after the release of their acclaimed 2018 album ‘No Cross, No Crown’, the band had to cope with the tragic loss of drummer Reed Mullin in 2020 and the departure of bassist Mike Dean.
The two remaining members, Pepper Keenan (vocals / guitar) and Woody Weatherman (guitar), were forced to reinvent the band; they wrote tons of songs and found new comrades in Stanton Moore (drums) and Bobby “Rock” Landgraf (bass). The result of this newfound creativity is a double album titled ‘Good God / Baad Man’, which CORROSION OF CONFORMITY are now presenting live to their German fans at three dates in Wiesbaden, Cologne, and Berlin.
The band became known in the mid-eighties with underground classics like ‘Eye for an Eye’ (1984) and ‘Animosity’ (1985), which were followed in the early nineties by more mainstream-oriented hits like ‘Blind’ (1991) and ‘Deliverance’ (1994). With a discography now spanning ten studio albums and one live album, CORROSION OF CONFORMITY hold the status of music legends and are cultishly revered by two generations of punk, metal, and rock fans.
In 2018, they released ‘No Cross, No Crown’, an album that showed the band remains in top form. It also highlighted that the proven CORROSION OF CONFORMITY line-up of Pepper Keenan, Woody Weatherman, Reed Mullin, and Mike Dean resembled a brotherhood of four who grew from a gang of stray teenage punks into a successful band family over the years. This made the tragic loss of drummer Reed Mullin in 2020, followed shortly by the exit of Mike Dean, all the heavier.
Keenan and Weatherman initially retreated, listening to music together and starting to write a wealth of new songs. They brought Stanton Moore on board as the new drummer, who had previously played on the CORROSION OF CONFORMITY album ‘In the Arms of God’ in 2005. Bobby ‘Rock’ Landgraf, who played with Pepper in the New Orleans greats DOWN, was recruited for bass.
“With many of these songs, we are trying to make Reed Mullin proud”, says Pepper. Produced by Grammy winner Warren Riker (FUGEES, DOWN, CATHEDRAL) and featuring cover artwork by famous New Orleans artist Scott Guion, ‘Good God / Baad Man’ was recorded at Blak Shak Studios in Riffissippi, USA, Dockside Studios in Maurice, Louisiana, and - believe it or not - at the home studio of BEE GEES’ Barry Gibb in Miami.
