Response to "Basically the worst CD I've ever heard"
You have it backwards, sonny boy. Those of us who got into COC before Blind and Deliverance were fans of a hardcore band who had integrity. Scrubs like you who only heard of them after they were on MTV's Headgiver's Ball were taken in by a bunch of washed up old sell outs. It's a good thing your stupid friend threw away Technocracy, he didn't deserve to own it in the first place. Now go back to your generic nu-metal.

Basically the worst CD I've ever heard.
Back in the day I was a huge Corrosion of Conformity fan. Like many people, I first heard the band during their Deliverance era and soon found myself trying to track down their back-catalog. I found Blind first, and even though Pepper Keenan wasn't on lead vocals, I still found the CD to be sort of enjoyable. However, once I got to Technocracy, I realized that the musically-talented good-songwriting serious-musicianship Corrosion of Conformity I knew only existed from Blind up.

This CD is absolutely horrible. I had a hard time even believing this was COC. It's just talentless garbage noise that sounds worse than the crappy middle-school garage band that plays down your street that'll never make it. I've heard a lot of different metal music in my time, but this CD was by far one of the worst things I've ever listened to. My friend (before I knew him) had the same exact circumstances as me about COC (first heard Deliverance, then wanted their back catalog) and hated this CD so much after he bought it that he threw it out after hearing it just once. He didn't want anyone else to have to suffer hearing how horrible it was. I warn anyone who loves Deliverance/Wiseblood era COC to stay far away from this CD and all those pathetic COC releases that came out before it. This CD isn't even worth a penny, so don't spend your money on it.

Animosity was interesting (as is Techncracy) but the best work was by C.O.C.'s sister band "No Labels" which shared musicians (Woody Weatherman and Reed Mullin) with them. No Labels was also the greatest Raleigh punk band. It was very ironic to see C.O.C. rise to stardom while No Labels passed into oblivion.

The best thing about Technocracy is the presence of Simon Bob Sinister. He was a much cooler guy than anyone (besides Mike perhaps) than anyone else in C.O.C.

It's too bad they never did an Album with Robert Taylor. He was the vocalist for a while.

Benji was also an interesting vocalist. If you can find a No Core bootleg you can enjoy early C.O.C. at it's best.

Otherwise I suppose Eye for an Eye is the best option you have.

I do wonder why Animosity isn't available on CD. Even if it is filled with the same pomposity of all the post EYE FOR AN EYE albums.
