The first album I ever posted on this blog was COC's Technocracy. That shit kills it. Now, after a few month of listening to COC every couple of days I feel it's necessary to post up their 2nd full length, Animosity. If you think Technocracy is rad, Animosity will fuck your ears with vigor. Before COC morphed in to a southern rock groove metal band, they played some furious, no bullshit hardcore. As pioneers of crossover they definitely leaned towards the more metallic side of things, but on Animosity, it's mostly a punk rock band still. In a way, they almost have an Age of Quarrel Cro-Mags meets Black Flag with Sabbath breakdowns. Throw in some super political lyrics and some of the shittiest punks-playing-thrash solos you've ever heard and you've got a pretty good pedigree for this record. COC makes me wanna drop in, thrash on, and tune out.
