Two tracks. Zero mercy. Southern-fried sludge straight to the jaw. 🤘💀
Alright mun… no messing about here — this ain’t a full album, it’s a two-track sonic haymaker. 😤
Good God / Baad Man sees Corrosion of Conformity doing what they’ve always done best: dirty riffs, swampy grooves, and attitude thicker than a pint of stout. 🍺🔥
Short? Yeah.
Sweet? Not a chance.
This is gritty, grimy, and built to rattle your bones.
🎧 THE SOUND – SLUDGE, GROOVE, AND PURE FILTH
This is C.O.C. in their natural habitat — somewhere between a biker bar, a desert highway, and a speaker stack turned up way too loud.
- 🎸 Riffs: Fuzzy, bluesy, and absolutely filthy
- 🥁 Drums: Slow, stomping, and heavy as sin
- 🎤 Vocals: Gritty, snarling, soaked in attitude
- 🌵 Vibe: Southern sludge meets doom-laced groove
It’s the kind of sound that makes you nod your head without even realising it… until your neck’s gone. 😅
💿 TRACKLIST – SHORT AND SAVAGE
- 🔥 Good God
- 😈 Baad Man
Two tracks. That’s it.
But don’t let that fool you — they hit harder than some full albums.
🔥 STANDOUT TRACKS – BOTH OF ‘EM, OBVIOUSLY
🔥 “Good God”
Opens like a storm rolling in. Slow, heavy, and absolutely dripping with groove. This one builds and punishes.
😈 “Baad Man”
Bit nastier. Bit meaner. Feels like the band just leaned in and said, “Let’s make this even dirtier.”
🎤 VOCAL / RIFF SPOTLIGHT – PEPPER KEENAN BRINGS THE GRIME
Frontman Pepper Keenan delivers exactly what you want here — raw, gritty vocals that sound like they’ve been dragged through a swamp and set on fire. 🔥
And those riffs?
Proper head-nod, beer-spilling, speaker-breaking goodness.

🎸 THE VERDICT – TOO SHORT OR JUST RIGHT?
Short answer?
Short… but absolutely savage, mun. 🤘🔥
Good God / Baad Man is like a double shot of something strong — quick, intense, and leaves a proper burn on the way down.

🍺 FINAL THOUGHTS
Sometimes you don’t need a full album.
Sometimes you just need two tracks that punch you in the face and leave you grinning. 😈
Stick this on loud, grab a pint, and let it rumble through your bones…
Because this one?
It doesn’t overstay… it detonates. 🤘💀🔥

As editor of The Riff Report, Michael writes festival guides, breaking news, album reviews, gig reviews, interviews, opinion pieces, nostalgia features, and behind-the-scenes stories from across the rock and metal world.

Through The Riff Report, he aims to shine a spotlight on both the biggest names in rock and the future stars waiting to break through.

Above all, Michael believes rock and metal are about more than music—they’re about community, friendship, and creating memories that last a lifetime. That’s exactly what The Riff Report exists to celebrate.
