Dez Fafara on \”Suffer in Silence\” and working with Al Jourgensen:
\”Al has been a close friend for many years, he\’s a legend, and literally was the only guy I asked to be a guest on this record. He came over to the house, we had BBQ a hell of a lot of wine then I had the pleasure of watching him in my home studio do what he does! I fucking love this song so jam it loud!\”
COAL CHAMBER will release their new album
Rivals on May 19
th in North America via Napalm Records.

Rivals in special bundles packages including a CD/DVD, LP (Limited to 1,000 Purple LP\’s), T-Shirt, beanie and wristbands are available
HERE.

Rivals entitled \”I.O.U. Nothing\” can be streamed

While their implosion 12 years ago left a morass of questions and conjecture about what could have been, the members of
COAL CHAMBER aren\’t into dwelling on their past right now.
Why the fuck should they? With
Rivals, they\’ve written a new, emboldened chapter in their storied career, delivering beatdown riffage, lyrical diatribes and alluring sonic vistas the realm of heavy music can always use to move that culture forward. The return of
COAL CHAMBER is marked by two mindsets. The first signifies a celebration of friends who have experienced a greater clarity about them to want to come together in a practice space again. The other mindset posits that they had a case of unfinished business they needed to take care of with bold strokes, lead-pipe cruelty and aural finesse.
