Interview: Coroner - Back and Bigger Than Ever: Speaking with Guitarist Tommy Vetterli

After more than three decades, Swiss pioneering technical metallers Coroner return with a new studio album. Dissonance Theory will be released on October 17th, 2025, worldwide via Century Media Records. What does a new Coroner album look like in 2025, three decades (plus) after the release of the last one? It’s a question that every listener will contemplate and it’s a question that the band have clearly thought long and hard about too. Refusing to dredge the rivers of the past only and instead take a deep plunge into the dark unknown in an attempt to find relevancy. A challenge, and Coroner treat it more like a swinging pendulum, going back and forth, effortlessly combining modern technical flourishes with old-school thrashy intensity, and so much more. It’s not about the past, but it’s not quite about the future either. So… what does a new Coroner album look like in 2025, three decades (plus) after the release of the last one? The answer is pretty damn simple. It looks and sounds mighty fine.
