Corrosion Of Conformity: Bobby Landgraf on New Album & Metallica Tour

Corrosion of Conformity takes center stage as bassist Bobby Landgraf joins Metal Mayhem ROC to break down the band’s new double album Good God / Baad Man and a pivotal new chapter in the group’s evolution. Landgraf details how he joined Corrosion Of Conformity through long-standing musical relationships with Pepper Keenan and the band’s extended circle, stepping into the role without a formal audition. That foundation of trust carried directly into the studio, where the band built a sprawling double album through a mix of structured demos and spontaneous, full-band jam sessions. A key focus is the organic writing process behind Good God / Baad Man, including songs that emerged in real time while the band recorded together in the same room. Landgraf also discusses working alongside drummer Stanton Moore, whose groove-driven style helped shape the feel and direction of the material. Beyond the album, Landgraf shares insight from his time as a bass tech for Pantera on Metallica’s 72 Seasons stadium tour, offering a behind-the-scenes look at one of the most technically demanding live productions in modern metal. With new music, a major tour cycle, and a refreshed lineup, Corrosion Of Conformity continues to evolve while staying rooted in the sound and spirit that defines the band.
