Corrosion Of Conformity Making Progress On New Album

(Metal Hammer) Corrosion Of Conformity have "four or five" songs written for what will be their 10th album. The band have a total of 25 rough ideas that they hope to reduce to around 12 before hitting the studio to record the follow-up to 2014's IX. They hope to release their 10th album in 2017.

The album will be their first since the return of Pepper Keenan to the fold, after he sat out the recording of IX and 2012's self-titled effort. While playing the Ronnie James Dio stage at England's Bloodstock festival yesterday (Friday), Keenan told the audience the new album would land in 2017, and after the set bassist Mike Dean said in an exclusive interview with TeamRock that work was well underway.

Dean says: "We're currently writing it and we have a whole lot of material that we are just trying to narrow down. We're trying to get 25 rough ideas down to between 12 and 15 songs that we'll record and release next year.

"Four or five of them are pretty much whole formed songs." Read more here.
