COC Recorded Their Entire New Album With Zero Isolation | Corrosion of Conformity

Pepper Keenan and Woody Weatherman of Corrosion of Conformity on one of the most unconventional recording decisions behind Good God / Baad Man — tracking the entire album with no isolation booth and no control room. Amps everywhere. Every guitar they owned in the room. Cabinets everywhere. Mattresses leaned against the walls down the hall. No silent room to listen back in. No way to know if a take was good until they stopped, rewound the tape, and listened. Most modern rock records are made in the opposite direction — carefully controlled environments, isolated tracking, perfect separation between instruments. COC went the other way entirely. Everything bleeding into everything else. The room as part of the sound. And it shows up in the record exactly the way you'd hope it would. This clip is from Episode 33 of The Sonic Road Podcast,
