C.O.C. - Technocracy E.P. (FULL)

[@combatgirl38]

It's often worried me that at age 48 I can forget shit 30 seconds after I learn it but What the fuck?!! I haven't heard this album since about 1987 and I still remember All Of The Words!!! I still have this exact tape cassette too. This message is more succinct than ever. You dudes knew what was up. I know I won't be forgetting about you again, that's for sure!!

[@bobbymurphy3247]

Before they turned all doom! This is the COC I remembered,& I wish they were still in this style! The good ol days

[@jasonus]

lol

[@combatgirl38]

Aw, shit! I just commented above and it sucks to read this about them from a fan. I was hoping for better seeing that they're still active.

[@hazeymatheus9603]

vote with a bullet

[@DrBanzaiPhd]

@@hazeymatheus9603 the Blind album is awesome. Karl Agel had definitely had something to say.

[@hollowpoint3188]

Sounds like a bunch of racket I'm sorry but if you're telling me that dance of the dead, who's got the fire, 13 angels , vote with a bullet, ELM isn't saying anything other than in southern. You need to go get ur hearing checked🤣🤣🤣🤣☠

[@groundslothjiujitsu627]

[@Chrisdougable]

Whatever happened to Simon Bob Sinister? He sounds great with this band.

[@truthtodeafears]

Of course,but I still feel the vocals should be way more viciously unhinged to complement or even keep up with the crushingly impressive rush of madness and power these songs offer,just like on their albums before this one.

[@DamageInc86]

I sort of wish they could have beefed these songs up with the more straight ahead metal sound from blind, and with more thrash screaming style of vocals. I'd be interested to hear what this might have sounded like recorded in say 1990 maybe.

[@perseapina]

I might agree but i still like the vocals, they have that charming teenage snottines reminiscent of many early us hardcore bands

NOBODY TALKS ABOUT THIS LP?THEY HAVE ONLY GOTTEN BETTER!

[@sigmundhightower1766]

REED FUCKIN' MULLIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@nicoguarini28]

Reminds me of Dr.Know.

[@danielcarlson800]

Oh, Hell Yes!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@cthulhugamete]

True (Blind lasted a few weeks before I donated it to the used record store...anonymously), but the new stuff is more like a Crossover -Doom/Stoner Metal hybrid. Sounds like a thrashier version of Saint Vitus. Not bad. Though if you're a Thrash purist, probably not. That said, trying to pull off a pure Thrash/Crossover record after playing strictly Stoner Metal & Doom for the past 20 years would have come off as opportunistic given we're currently in an 80's Punk/HC/Thrash revival.

[@DamageInc86]

That's insane you donated that back. That was the first record I ever liked from COC. I had it playing almost constantly in my car. I think reed's drumming on blind is absolutely stunning if you really listen to it, and the guitar is heavy as fuck and still thrashy at times. Vocals can be a bit whiny sometimes, but he actually hits a lot of things that I could never pull off trying to sing along. The bass is also done really well, and ads a lot. Blind is probably in my top ten albums of all time. But then again I like more straight ahead metal and less of the technocracy style by default.

[@cthulhugamete]

thought they had ironed out the kinks in animosity by this EP....and then they were gone for quite a few years.

[@danielcarlson800]

Crap!!!!!!!!!

[@nicoguarini28]

No surprise they went into more doomy retro hard rock.They all were huge Sabbath and Vitus fans.

[@saraivatoledo1842]

Exhorder were clearly possessed by these guys \m/

[@sirlordwhitman]

Why did this band sack the only two good singers they've had. Eric Eycke and Simon Bob Sinister were the true frontmen for C.O.C.

[@canousi]

an ideal mix of heavy doom))) and straight ahead punk hardcore !!!
