    They feel energised with Keenan back in the fold, and while the pronounced riffs on the introduction of “Little Man” might hark back to their hardcore days, the emphasis here is on groove. [Feb 2018, p.46]

    Guitarist/vocalist Pepper Keenan, guitarist Woody Weatherman, bassist Mike Dean and drummer Reed Mullin still have an undeniable chemistry, and No Cross No Crown is a satisfying return to form.

    Furious first single Cast The First Stone sets the pace for an album that’s utterly relentless in its intensity. There are the now-expected acoustic interludes so you can catch your breath here and there, but as face-melters like Wolf Named Crow and Forgive Me will attest to, this is Corrosion Of Conformity with their amps and their snarls turned up to 11. Thank Christ.

    It's simple stuff, but it's as powerful and unstoppable as an avalanche. [6 Jan 2018, p.54]

    Even with thirty-plus years behind them, Corrosion of Conformity can still reach the nosebleed seats without sacrificing any integrity. It may all feel a little familiar, but it still burns going down.

    Solid album with plenty of blues and doom influences. Great to see Pepper Keenan back with a solid effort after nearly 13 years away. LetsSolid album with plenty of blues and doom influences. Great to see Pepper Keenan back with a solid effort after nearly 13 years away. Lets just hope there is less time between drinks for the next album! If they can build on what they created here then their next masterpiece is not far away. Overall a very solid album with a few classics and very few filler. 8/10… Full Review »
