Primarily known for their nostalgic throwback sound of original, traditional Heavy Metal, Corners of Sanctuary (COS) threw their hats into the cover song arena for the first time last year with the band's renditions of several classic Def Leppard hits. Earlier this year, COS followed up with their version of Judas Priest's hit "Breaking the Law." With the group's recent signing to SODEH Records, the partnering has compiled the tracks all together, along with the addition of two new cover songs, and will be releasing a digital-only EP, "Taking Cover" this month.
"Taking Cover" will include "Rock of Ages," "Mirror, Mirror," the aforementioned "Breaking the Law," "Bringing on the Heartbreak," and COS-ified versions of The Osmonds' "Crazy Horses" and Warrant's "Inside Out."
A music video for “Inside Out,” is now streaming on Youtube.

"We stood clear of doing cover songs," said COS founder and guitarist Mick Michaels. "Our focus has always been original music, but this has been a great experience. Having the opportunity to have all the tracks together on one EP just adds to the cool factor...it allow things to be showcased in their own stand-alone light."
In addition to "Taking Cover," the band is also working on an all new, original EP titled "Metal Up," which is slated to release later this fall through SODEH Records. Plus, COS is already getting things geared up for the season as the band looks to drop a brand new track as part of their annual Holiday bundle.

"We are excited to be having this new EP come out through Sodeh Records," said Michaels. "The music definitely demonstrates where the band is at this moment... there's still a lot of fire brewing below and this EP will be a reflection of that."
With a handful of shows set for the remainder of 2023, including supporting Sponge in September, several benefits performances, and opening for the Heavy Metal tribute act Denim and Leather, (see schedule below), Corners of Sanctuary is already looking towards 2024 and beyond.
"There's still so much to do…so much this band wants to do," Michaels added. "We are just grateful that we’ve been given the opportunity to do what we love."
