Corrosion Of Conformity
The sticker on this album boasts
"77 minutes of pure live Corrosion!" By the end of the album you'll
be wishing it was even longer. C.O.C.'s first ever live album certainly
delivers all it can in the little single cd package. The Kings of metal
jam-dom bust out lengthy, guitar ladden, improvisions of the tunes we
know and love. There's a good mix of old and new, although there's only
one track off "Blind", (gee, I wonder which one it could be? "Dance Of
The Dead" would've been killler too but eh, well) and no material off
any albums before it. The newer stuff sounds great live, "Congratulations
Song" is so damn catchy. The mix is great, every one of Pepper's palm
mutes, Mike's slaps, and Woody's little pick scrapes bust right through
your speakers. Also check out how the guitar bounces back and forth
around your head at about 4:17 on "Clean My Wounds". A definate must
for any C.O.C. fan.
