Gold-certified Southern metal outfit Corrosion Of Conformity have locked in a new drummer in Nick Shabatura. The latter scored the gig at the suggestion of Anthrax/Pantera drummer Charlie Benante, as mentioned by the band in the below newly shared video. He replaces Stanton Moore, who took over the drumming duties for the band from 2024 onward, assuming the role from the late Reed Mullin.
Shabatura‘s new position comes with the blessing of Moore, who stated on social media today, March 13th:
“I approve this message!
I went by rehearsals in Riffississippi the other day to meet and hang with Nick. He is an amazing drummer and a super cool guy. He showed up having completely done his homework and already sounds great playing with the band.
The plan was always for me to make this record with the guys and then to find somebody to do the touring. Well, we found the guy and he is Nick Shabatura!”
Corrosion Of Conformity have a new double album, “Good God / Baad Man“, headed for an April 03rd release date and have a wealth of touring planned for it. If you missed it earlier this week, the band debuted their new track “You Or Me“.
