After a couple years of myriad setbacks and false starts, Coroner bassist and vocalist Ron "Royce" Broder and guitarist Tommy "T. Baron" Vetterli both offered Mark Kadzielawa of 69 Faces Of Rock an update on the band's first studio album since 1993's Grin, confirming that they have been in the studio as of late tracking their upcoming sixth studio album. Tentatively due for release later this year or next year, the record will be the very first Coroner album to feature drummer Diego Rapacchietti, who replaced Markus "Marquis Marky" Edelmann back in 2014.

When asked if there will ever be new music from Coroner, Tommy Vetterli replied: "Yes. I know we've promised that for years now...yeah, people already made jokes about it, I totally understand, but you know, sometimes life is difficult. But we've actually started the recording, we have started recording drums, six songs are recorded and two more songs are ready, but Ron's part is missing and then we have to write another one, and then we hit the studio and record it. And...we'll see what happens."

Ron Royce was then asked how he feels about the new material, to which he replied: "Yeah, great. It's fun...it's really funny to to play new songs and put it together and produce the thing. But it takes time because...our B side chops, you know, we have 100% chops even more and that's the reason why it takes so long."
