#222 CORROSION OF CONFORMITY - BLIND Album Dive

Before CORROSION OF CONFORMITY gifted us with their signature “Southern Fried Sabbath” sound, the metal world was first introduced to BLIND, a unique blending of thrash, doom, and stoner metal tempered with heavy foundations built on straight-up Sabbath worship. Clearly a progression from the punk & hard-core centric sound of earlier COC and their maiden voyage into thrash metal territory, BLIND sounds as if Black Sabbath time traveled and came to power in the early 90’s as a modern-day thrash band complete with all the darker, doomier elements that were such an integral part of their signature sound back in the day. Surely, COC’s release of BLIND was pivotal in fostering the resurging popularity of Sabbath’s legendary, groundbreaking 70’s output.

Prepare to receive some sage “exercise” advice and understand why glasses aren’t always suitable for certain situations. Remember to never “fake your fartgasms” and don’t be a “dry handy jacker” after learning what “U.F.C.” actually stands for. Discover the latest metal conspiracy theory regarding the “source of the YEAH”, go ahead and invite “Pee-Paw” and any “homies that are chicks” over to give thanks, and be sure to tell them to JOIN US after Thanksgiving dinner as we give thanks for CORROSION OF CONFORMITY’s 1991 groove doom thrash classic, BLIND.
