Karl Agell, who was Corrosion of Conformity's vocalist on 1991's breakthrough Blind, discussed a number of topics with me, including:
- how he joined Legions of Doom, a doom/stoner supergroup involving ex-members of Trouble, The Skull, Saint Vitus, Pentagram, Leadfoot, and more.
- their first release, The Skull 3, due out September 13th through Tee Pee Records.
- the impact Eric Wagner (Trouble, The Skull) and his passing in 2021 had on this record and on Karl's career.
- his time in Corrosion of Conformity, the recording of Blind, his contributions to the record, and touring with Iron Maiden.
- his departure from Corrosion of Conformity, the tapes of him singing the tracks from Deliverance, and the possibility of any future reunion with COC.
- what fans can expect from Legions of Doom and their sets while touring in support of The Skull 3, which includes headlining Desertfest NYC's pre-party.
As a huge fan of Blind, it was an incredible experience to speak with Karl about that unique, standout album that blends hardcore, thrash, and many other styles. Legions of Doom and The Skull 3 are also well worth your time. Enjoy!
