Today marks the official unveiling of ***Good God / Baad Man***, the monumental new double album from American heavy metal icons **CORROSION OF CONFORMITY**!

*“…it’s most definitely COC’s most ambitious album to date, both in length and material,”* writes **Decibel Magazine** in their latest feature on the band.* “It literally spans the entire breadth of what the band is capable of from furious punk (‘Gimme Some Moore’) to Southern stoner rock (‘You Or Me’) to melancholy acoustic Americana (‘Brickman’) and maybe even pushes into some new areas (the gospel-inflected doom of ‘Forever Amplified’). This is COC in 2026, led by two musicians separated geographically, but brought together by the shared love of the almighty riff, and keeping the legacy going…”*

**Rock Hard** Germany concurs,* “stylistically speaking, CORROSION OF CONFORMITY’s distinctive sonic blend has never been easy to pin down, as too many influences surface within the quartet’s material. From Southern rock and hardcore to sludge and doom – anything that was fun was fair game – and the double album Good God / Baad Man is, of course, no exception; rather, it pushes the quartet’s penchant for experimentation to the absolute limit… Good God / Baad Man is a ‘Gesamtkunstwerk’ – a total work of art – whose multifaceted nature defies easy categorization, yet draws the listener in with an intensity that is all the more profound.”*

**Blabbermouth** gushes, *“Best experienced in its languorous, lawless entirety, Good God / Baad Man is by far the most immersive and free-spirited album that CORROSION OF CONFORMITY have ever made. It is also wired to the tits on the same feral, moonshine spirit that has propelled this band through more than four decades of road-hogging commitment to the hard rock cause. Whether you discovered this band through their early days as hardcore firebrands, during their major label ’90s halcyon days, or at any other point along their unique story, this demands to be played as loud as possible and savored like a gift from the gods.”*

Adds **Metal Addicts**,* “Sonically, there’s a lot of ground covered. Heavy riffs, mid-tempo grooves, touches of grunge in the vein of Soundgarden, and little details that give it personality – samples, cowbell, and textures that keep things interesting without ever feeling overproduced… What’s most impressive is how natural it all feels. This isn’t a band chasing their past or trying to recreate a specific era. They’ve kept the core COC DNA intact, but they’ve expanded on it— refined the groove, tightened the low end, and let the songs breathe in a way that feels earned.”*

**More on CORROSION OF CONFORMITY:**

Much has gone down in the** CORROSION OF CONFORMITY **universe since their last album smacked us upside the head. Back in 2018, when ***No Cross No Crown*** dropped like a rock ‘n’ roll atom bomb, the tried-and-true **CORROSION OF CONFORMITY** line-up of **Pepper Keenan** (vocals, guitar), **Woody Weatherman **(guitar), **Reed Mullin** (drums), and **Mike Dean **(bass) was still going strong. Four brothers united in a decades-long history kicked off by a roving pack of teenage punks in Raleigh, North Carolina circa 1982.

**CORROSION OF CONFORMITY**’s first four albums left a permanent mark on headbangers, longhairs, and street punks everywhere: Underground classics ***Eye For An Eye ***(1984) and ***Animosity*** (1985) followed by slightly more overground bangers ***Blind*** (1991) and ***Deliverance*** (1994). By the time **CORROSION OF CONFORMITY **carved off ***No Cross No Crown*** nearly a quarter century later, they were legends in their own time, revered by two generations of punk, metal, and rock fans.

Then tragedy struck: In January 2020, **Reed Mullin** left this earthly plane. It was a devastating blow, both personally and professionally. How do you replace a brother? You can’t. All you can do is soldier on in his memory. Which is what the rest of **CORROSION OF CONFORMITY **did – until COVID-19 shut down the globe. Then **Mike Dean **decided to go his own way. It was an amicable split, but it left **Pepper **and **Woody **to contemplate their next move. They hunkered down at Keenan’s place in Mississippi, listening to all the music they love. **Discharge**.** ZZ Top**. **Motörhead**. **Neil Young**. **Black Sabbath**.

They started writing. They didn’t stop; not for a long time. In fact, they composed a massive double album. *“As we went on, we had such a crazy plethora of songs, it was almost like two different directions,” ***Pepper **says. *“We knew we had to split it into two different albums. Then we came up with this concept.”*

The concept happens to be the title of the record. It’s called*** Good God / Baad Man***. *“Our producer, Warren Riker, kept calling it Dark Side Of The Doom,”* recalls **Pepper.** *“In my head, it’s a weird love letter to all things rock ‘n’ roll. We used that for the freedom to go in different directions. Each album is its own tiny universe and has its own identity. Good God leans toward the heavier/pissed end of the spectrum. Baad Man is more on the throwdown rock scope. As we went along, it became clear which songs went on which album.”*

They brought in drummer **Stanton Moore**, who played on **CORROSION OF CONFORMITY**’s 2005 album, ***In The Arms Of God***. They brought in bassist **Bobby “Rock” Landgraf**, who did time with **Pepper**in New Orleans heavyweights **Down** when he wasn’t terrorizing the locals in his own band, **Honky**. *“With a lot of these songs, we’re trying to make Reed Mullin proud,” ***Pepper** says. *“He was a badass, and a one-of-a-kind drummer. And the stakes were high.”*
