It will not be extra details about their extremely anticipated double-album, however Corrosion of Conformity dropped slightly deal with for his or her followers within the type of a canopy of Free’s 1970 monitor “Hearth and Water”. Their rendition of the music was launched earlier right this moment as the primary entry of their newly introduced Riffissippi Studio Jam Periods.
In line with the band, the Riffissippi Studio Jam Periods are a set of covers interpreted by Corrosion of Conformity primarily based on the band’s favourite artists. These items had been recorded as they’d some downtime whereas engaged on their new album.
Talking in regards to the cowl, frontman Pepper Keenan mentioned all of it happened serendipitously.
“After we had been monitoring this document, we had a really cool house arrange the place we might basically hold within the massive room with all the things mic’d and all the things we would have liked, together with a turntable and a bunch of our favourite data, which we might play and sit back between takes. We had been hanging collectively, and I pulled out a Free album and ‘Hearth And Water’ popped up. [Drummer] Stanton [Moore] jumped up instantly and mentioned, ‘Who the fuck is that!?’ He had by no means heard it earlier than. We had been baffled, however it was superior to us that he had by no means heard it. He mentioned, ‘let’s lower that!’ I mentioned, ‘man, that’s friggin’ Free and form of like holy floor that you simply don’t fuck with.’ However we began serious about it and rattling, Stanton charted it out just like the drum wizard he’s. I mentioned, ‘I can’t sing like that, man. He’s the king.’ Somebody within the room mentioned, ‘simply sing it such as you,’ so we went for it and had a blast doing it.
“It was a pleasant enjoyable break from the recording. It’s nothing too critical, only a bunch of fellas leaning into it, loving the rock. It’s an train in restraint. Hope y’all dig it.”
As a long-time Corrosion of Conformity fan, I’m excited to see what covers they resolve to do for this.

That ought to actually allow us to see the place their heads are at not solely as musicians, however as music followers like the remainder of us.
