CORROSION OF CONFORMITY will be touring in support of its mammoth new double album, "Good God / Baad Man", released on April 3 via Nuclear Blast. Produced by Grammy Award winner Warren Riker (FUGEES, DOWN, CATHEDRAL) and featuring cover art by famed New Orleans artist Scott Guion, "Good God / Baad Man" was recorded at Blak Shak Studios in Riffissippi, USA, Dockside Studios in Maurice, Louisiana, and BEE GEES legend Barry Gibb's home studio in Miami, Florida.

CORROSION OF CONFORMITY's latest two additions are bassist Bobby "Rock" Landgraf and drummer Nick Shabatura.

Shabatura previously played with DESECRATE THE HOUR and the Chicago-based NIRVANA tribute band SMELLS LIKE NIRVANA.

CORROSION OF CONFORMITY's first four albums left a permanent mark on headbangers, longhairs, and street punks everywhere: Underground classics "Eye For An Eye" (1984) and "Animosity" (1985) followed by slightly more overground bangers "Blind" (1991) and "Deliverance" (1994). By the time CORROSION OF CONFORMITY carved off "No Cross No Crown" nearly a quarter century later, they were legends in their own time, revered by two generations of punk, metal, and rock fans.

THE SWORD is celebrating the 20th anniversary of its groundbreaking debut album, "Age Of Winters", and is finishing up its highly anticipated tour with RED FANG on the West Coast.

THE SWORD has handcrafted their own immersive mythology underscored by undeniable and unpredictable guitar fireworks, cinematic themes, and otherworldly concepts. Since emerging out of Austin, Texas in 2003, the quartet — JD Cronise (vocals, guitar),Bryan Richie (bass, keys),Kyle Shutt (guitar, vocals),and Santiago Vela (drums) — has incited the obsession of a diehard fanbase and the applause of tastemakers such as Rolling Stone, Washington Post, Decibel and more. The band's catalog encompasses six full-length albums, namely "Age Of Winters" (2006),"Gods Of The Earth" (2008),"Warp Riders" (2010),"Apocryphon" (2012),"High Country" (2015) and "Used Future" (2018). The group has shared the stage with everyone from METALLICA to LAMB OF GOD and CLUTCH, in addition to selling out headline tours on multiple continents. After a two-year hiatus, the band officially reunited and returned in tandem with the celebration of the 15th anniversary of "Warp Riders". Hailed as a "classic" by Consequence, it originally garnered praise from the likes of Premier Guitar, SPIN and more.
