Candlelight Records has set a June 24 North American release date for "IX", the new album from CORROSION OF CONFORMITY. Produced by the band and longtime comrade John Custer, the album and lead single "On Your Way" will be available for preorders via iTunes, Amazon and other popular outlets beginning May 13.

Video footage filmed at the recording studio, including vocalist Mike Dean and drummer Reed Mullin laying down vocal tracks, plus guitarist Woodroe Weatherman tracking some of the albums killer riffs, has been seen by fans around the globe.

"The making of 'IX' was drawn out because of us having to step away to do other projects," comments Dean. "I think being forced to step away kept us hungry and then being back on the case with deadlines casting a shadow gave us a 'failure is no option' vibe and that really helped the final product."

"This album is another step forward for us," adds Weatherman. "It seems like we keep heading more and more toward our rawer live sound with the studio recordings."

Having recently returned from a successful European tour, the band is gearing up for the album's release and a year full of nonstop touring.
