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. After a long run of touring and writing the end result was 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 they could’ve easily been on Wiseblood or Deliverance, two of C.O.C.’s most revered records.
On No Cross No Crown beefy Southern stompers like ‘The Luddite’, Little Man’ and ‘Forgive Me’ are interspersed with melancholy guitar interludes like ‘No Cross’, ‘Matre’s Diem’ and ‘Sacred Isolation’ – just like SABBATH used to do in the ’70s.
CORROSION OF CONFORMITY are going to give you what you expect. A Southern flavoured, beer soaked, sweat drenched, smoke filled riff fest with a set list offering new tracks alongside all time classics like ‘Vote With A Bullet’, ‘Cleanse My Wounds’, ‘Albatross’, ‘Wiseblood’ and ‘Seven Days’……
