Cherry Red Records Blind: Expanded Edition

Originally forming as very much a hardcore punk band, in Rayleigh, North Carolina in 1982, C.O.C. then featured bassist and vocalist Mike Dean, guitarist Woody Weatherman and drummer Reed Mullin.
By the time of their third album “Blind” in 1991, Corrosion Of Conformity had switched to a very much more metal orientated sound, and was their first album to get more mainstream attention leading to a major label deal with Columbia Records.
The only album to feature Karl Agell on lead vocals, the band was also joined by Phil Swisher on bass and future Down collaborator Pepper Keenan on guitar and vocals.
Featuring the singles ‘Vote With A Bullet’ and ‘Dance of the Dead’, this version also features three bonus tracks, Condition A/Condition B, Future Now (an MC5 cover) and Jim Beam and the Coon Ass, which originally appeared on the b-side to ‘Vote With A Bullet’ EP.
This edition includes liner notes by Classic Rock and Metal Hammer’s Malcolm Dome based on new interviews with the band’s Reed Mullin and Karl Agell, plus producer John Custer.
