CORROSION OF CONFORMITY - Technocracy LP (Blackberry Marble Vinyl)

Limited to 300 copies worldwide.

For a simple EP, Corrosion Of Conformity's "Technocracy" is finally the first sight of seeing the band come into their own. While before C.O.C. made a great effort to make themselves stick out in the already over-growing, over-populated hardcore punk scene filled with Black Flag and Minor Threat clones, and not only being part of the first original wave of hardcore punk along with the other two mentioned, C.O.C. were at least a step ahead of the game when it came to actually progressing. The musical leaps made from "Eye For An Eye" to their second album "Animosity" proved a more mature sound for the band in helping them gain a bigger audience in the metal scene at a time when hardcore punk bands started incorporating influences and touring with bands such as Exodus, Slayer, and the likes which is what made "Animosity" one of the first and best authentic crossover albums of all time next to albums from other Cryptic Slaughter, Hirax, Attitude Adjustment, and Suicidal Tendencies.
