The Sludgelord News: CORROSION OF CONFORMITY ANNOUNCE UK TOUR BAND REUNITE WITH PEPPER KEENAN

Wednesday 14^th January 2015 - Corrosion of Conformity are reuniting with guitarist/vocalist Pepper Keenan for UK and European dates. Other than a few surprise appearances, this will be the first time Keenan has toured with the band since 2006. This will also be the first time the "Deliverance" lineup of the group has played together since 2001.

COC recently emerged from hibernation as a trio and released 2012's eponymous album and 2014's "IX" to wide acclaim, but many have been eagerly awaiting the return of Pepper Keenan.

The band were originally an influential hardcore punk/heavy metal crossover act before reaching critical success with a new lineup on 1991's "Blind" album. That trajectory continued with wider appeal as Keenan took over as primary vocalist on "Deliverance" (1994) and "Wiseblood" (1996).

These two recordings in particular fused the raw energy of the previous albums with some great strides forward in classic rock inspired songwriting and more spacious production and execution, which were often copied but rarely equalled.

This juggernaut gained mass and momentum with relentless touring alongside Metallica, Clutch, Eyehategod and many more.

Eventually following "In the Arms of God", 2005, Keenan focused all energy on his hometown band Down.

Until now, that is.

Recent internet chatter on the subject of a reunion turns out be true.

Asked about future plans, bassist Mike Dean said, "This is all about going out and celebrating some of the classic material, and at the same time it's about tuning up the chemistry and the energy to possibly create a new album or two with this lineup."

Support acts to be announced.

Deliverance - Doomsday, Please

Deliverance is a Black Metal/Sludge/Post-Metal Band from Paris, France

The members are:

Pierre Duneau - Vocals
Etienne Sarthou - Guitars
Jef Ertlé - Drums
Aurélien Cèbe - Bass

Deliverance is a superb band blending Black Metal, Sludge and Post-Metal riffs for one loud as fuck EP called Doomsday, Please.

Doomsday, Please - features 4 tracks and almost 28 minutes of brilliant hard-hitting Post-Black Metal riffs. If you're a fan of Wolves In The Throne Room then you're going to love this like I did. Deliverance stay brutal through out the entire EP. So if you love your music loud, bleak and heavy as fuck then you seriously need to check these guys out now.

First track - Howl For Thee Ashes - is an uncompromising tale with Pierre on fine demented form through out. Pierre's vocals are pure evil. Don't expect any clean based singing as that isn't Deliverance's style. They stay brutal and demonic through out the entire release.

Doomsday, Please is a brilliant debut record which shows Deliverance are a band with a very bright future indeed. As these guys are seriously fucking talented. They may not be doing anything groundbreaking but you can't deny how powerful their music is. Especially on superb tracks - Wilderness and Hail To The Almighty.

All I can say is download this EP now as it's excellent. The band have this available for buy now download on BandCamp. So headover their now and download it now. You won't be sorry.

You can buy this on 10inch Vinyl as well from BigCartel. Limited to 300 copies.
