Corrosion Of Conformity album on way

Corrosion Of Conformity will release latest album IX in June, the band have confirmed.

The 11-track title was produced by long-time collaborator John Custer, and it’ll be headed up with the launch of lead single On Your Way next month.

COC frontman Mike Dean says: “The making of IX was drawn out because of us having to step away to do other projects.

“I think being forced to step away kept us hungry. Then, being back on the case with deadlines casting a shadow gave us a ‘failure is no option’ vibe. That really helped the final product.”

IX appears on June 23 via Candlelight Records.

Not only is one-time online news editor Martin an established rock journalist and drummer, but he’s also penned several books on music history, including SAHB Story: The Tale of the Sensational Alex Harvey Band, a band he once managed, and the best-selling Apollo Memories about the history of the legendary and infamous Glasgow Apollo. Martin has written for Classic Rock and Prog and at one time had written more articles for Louder than anyone else (we think he's second now). He’s appeared on TV and when not delving intro all things music, can be found travelling along the UK’s vast canal network.
