Corrosion of Conformity are heading back to US stages this fall on a co-headlining run with The Sword. The two-week trek opens November 2 in Buffalo, New York and wraps November 19 in Pensacola, Florida, with Hippie Death Cult providing support on the dates.
Vocalist and guitarist Pepper Keenan announced the tour in typically loose fashion:
“Well well welll… to all the free thinkers and beer drinkers, the CORROSION train won’t stop. Everywhere all the time! Gonna be ripping with THE SWORD and Hippie Death Cult. See ya on the horizon. Let’s fucking go!”
– Pepper Keenan

The run supports Corrosion of Conformity’s sprawling new double album, Good God / Baad Man, released April 3 via Nuclear Blast. Produced by Grammy winner Warren Riker (Fugees, Down, Cathedral) and featuring cover art by New Orleans artist Scott Guion, the record was tracked at Blak Shak Studios in Riffissippi, USA, Dockside Studios in Maurice, Louisiana, and Barry Gibb’s home studio in Miami. Good God / Baad Man is out on digipak CD, vinyl and digital, and the band has released videos for “Baad Man,” “Asleep On The Killing Floor,” “You Or Me” and “Gimme Some Moore.”
The Sword, meanwhile, are marking the 20th anniversary of their debut Age Of Winters and wrapping a West Coast run with Red Fang. Formed in Austin, Texas in 2003, the quartet built a devoted following across six albums: Age Of Winters (2006), Gods Of The Earth (2008), Warp Riders (2010), Apocryphon (2012), High Country (2015) and Used Future (2018), sharing stages with the likes of Metallica, Lamb of God and Clutch. After a two-year hiatus, the band reunited around the 15th anniversary of Warp Riders and has hinted at new music on the horizon.
