“While mastery isn’t unusual in metal, Corrosion Of
Conformity is fully baked enough to make us wish another 29 years on these
fuckers.” -- Decibel
“C.O.C. weren’t following any trends. They
just incorporated all the things they liked about thrash, punk and ‘70s metal
originators Black Sabbath into their constantly evolving sound. It secured them
artistic and commercial credibility.” — Allmusic.com
"Corrosion of Conformity not only brings
back one of heavy rock’s most seminal and defining bands, but it pushes that
band into new ground it’s never yet known. The achievement is substantial, the
performances crisp, the production clear but organic, but sure enough, these
elements and the varied aesthetic of the band come together to create something
wholly stronger than its parts." -- The Obelisk
