On their pivotal 1991 album, Blind, Corrosion of Conformity transitioned from crossover thrash pioneers to a sludgy, even anthemic metal act who could really groove. The record is the first with rhythm guitarist (and soon-to-be frontman) Pepper Keenan and their only LP with Karl Agell on the mic, whose thrashy yelp gives these songs a unique feel within the CoC catalog. Songs like “Dance With the Dead” and “Vote With a Bullet” are still raging classics that demand to be played at high volumes.
