Corrosion Of Conformity "Animosity" LP

Before Corrosion Of Conformity would join the family of groove-truckin’ bands like Crowbar and Kyuss, the Raleigh, NC, unit were just three hardcore kids pioneering punk’s crossover with thrash-metal. Their second record, 1985’s Animosity, is a 26-minute blast that unites Metallica’s flaming-spear riffage, the Bad Brains’ cartoonish zip and the slow chug sections of Black Flag’s My War — but with an even more overt reverence for Sabbathian fuzz, hinting at CoC’s sludge metamorphosis in the following decade.
