Woody and Pepper of Corrosion of Conformity are in the house to talk about the new C.O.C. album Good God / Baad Man...or as album producer Warren Riker called it, Dark Side of the Doom. Here's the straight facts: It's been eight long years since the last C.O.C. studio album and the guys have come roaring back with more than an hour's worth of new music. Long overdue and very welcome. They share the story behind how the record came together, plus anecdotes about Judas Priest, their favorite music, hanging with Lynyrd Skynyrd royalty and more. You can find info on all things C.O.C. at the band's official website, www.coc.com.

For anyone who lives and breathes the stories behind the music, The UCR Podcast offers a deep, ongoing conversation about the artists who defined an era and those carrying the torch forward. This isn't just a recap of headlines; it's a thoughtful exploration from the team at Ultimate Classic Rock, led by host Matt Wardlaw. Each episode feels like pulling up a chair with knowledgeable friends who are just as passionate about the legacy of a landmark album as they are about a band's surprising new project. You'll hear candid interviews that go beyond the usual anecdotes, roundtable discussions where different perspectives collide, and analysis that connects yesterday's revolutions to today's scene. Tuning into this podcast means getting a richer understanding of rock's enduring impact, not only through its history but through its very alive and evolving present. It’s for listeners who want context with their news and substance with their stories, all centered on the legends and the culture they continue to shape.
