Corrosion Of Conformity arguably had one of the best comeback albums of 2012 with their self-titled album. However, the reformed C.O.C are far from calling it a year, as they’ll be releasing a new EP via Scion A/V Metal. Titled Megalodon, this EP will feature five newly recorded songs.

The Summer came and went in a flash, and suddenly it’s Autumn again, with all the usual back-to-school mayhem occurring and the holiday season just over the horizon.

Also on the main stage will be Halford, Devildriver and Nonpoint. The [...]
Scion Rock Fest will make a triumphant return, this year on March 13 in Columbus, OH. It’s another stellar package, with Cannibal Corpse, Shrinebuilder and Voivod headlining, along with over 20 other bands rounding out the bill. Best of all, entry is completely free! But, RSVP’s for the event have already been maxed out. Lucky [...]
Last year’s Scion Rock Fest took people by surprise – a well-run festival featuring a stellar lineup (Mastodon, Neurosis, High on Fire) of bands that was completely free for all attendees. This year it’s back, in a completely different city with a completely different lineup and four times the venues of last year – but [...]
