03:09 - throw this a thumbs-up if you still break out into the biggest shit-eating grin all these years later when that monster riff rolls in like a freight train! 🤟🏻
@@darthvihlis9751 that weird because when Karl started Leadfoot,they flew to Europe all the time.....9/11 happening hurt them financially due to this.....
Thanks Reed for being part of this perfect record. One of my favorites of all time and always thought the drums were one of main reasons. So much energy.
I was never much of a Corrosion fan until I heard this album. I saw this video on Headbangers Ball back in the day and bought the cassette the next day. (Yes... the friggin cassette!) This was a killer album to kick off the 90's and is one of the best from that decade to this day.
"Blind" is one of my all time favorite metal albums. Agell's vocals were incredible and really made this record. Liked the rest of COC datalog but this one stands head and shoulders above the rest in my opinion.
With my own continuing experience of corruption and incompetence by local government, law enforcement, justice system in general, progressive socialism, "healthcare" system etc... This song is starting to make more and more sense all the time.

I think Karl did a great job on vocals. He used to sing for a local punk band called Seizure here in Ct. in the 80s.They were the first punk band I ever saw in 85. Saw C.O.C. and D.R.I when they toured together in 85 also.
This is one of the F..KING COOLEST tunes! Attitude with a hint of good riff rock! Has a GREAT 70's/80's hard rock/early metal vibe to it! Glad they started to lean musically in this time period!
@@quesefoda1992 How would you describe it then? Everyone is going to have a different take on it. I did say metal too. I grew up in a time where there wasn't a million different subgenres.

This remains my favorite era of CoC. It's such a shame it lasted only for an album. Now, it stands like an oddity in their catalogue compared to their other albums. But if you listen to it, it still sounds like one of the best metal albums ever released.
Hahahahhah same here! I’m 51 years old and I still feel a sense of calm wash over me when I’m listening to this stuff! My wife says that it’s too chaotic 😂😂. I definitely love her Beatles but she can have it! I’m gonna be a headbanger till they come take my body away to the incinerator!!! My wife represents calm and peaceful and I represent burning fucking evil love!! If that makes any sense to ya. Together we raise well rounded successful children who understand that mom is mom and dad is fuckin dad!
I had some early COC on tape when they weren't so metal and I was at a party way-back-when and a friend of mine sez you gotta check out this new album called "Blind" by Corrosion of Conformity and I was like "holy hell, bloody brilliant!"
Why did the singer leave? Pepper is a good singer but this guy had a really unique voice with a pretty killer range. That track “Great Purification” kicked ass, especially the vocals
john doe; I was also on A LOT of L.S.D. at that time as well as pot but still remember the music as well. and my girlfriend's little sister melting, but that was a few year's before this album came out. funny shit.
Karl killed the vocals here. He is astounding. Intense and weirdly real. Heavy music from CoC. I love Deliverance, but they were rocking it in this line-up! Greatest vocal performance ever potentially!
I love it man these guys they're my age and whatever peppercinian decides and what these guys decide and this singer is awesome you know what love it man quit knocking it down dude f****** love COC
I remember buying this CD after seeing this video on Headbanger's Ball. Thought it was decent, really liked "Vote With A Bullet", but didn't give it more than a few listens. Then Deliverance came out and blew my young goddamn mind.
Rest in peace, Reed Mullin. You will be missed.
Reed was a groovy fucking drummer while having energy and style. A damn shame we lost him.
K-DUB so sad,he was my most influential rock drummer
Glenn Fricker mentions the awesomeness of Reed's work here; ruclips.net/video/Mz2tTJIqrAo/видео.html @ 13:12 mark.
I hate we're losing sooooo many and have lost some of the best,..iconic,..influential,..and MOST DEFINITELY IRREPLACEABLE MUSICIANS AND ARTISTS!!!!
He was so fucking good
Criminally underrated album! One of my favorite albums ever by anybody on Earth.
Check out Karl singing for PATRIARCHS IN BLACK
Criminally underrated band.
Same here
Play It LOUD
Black Sabbath Sabotage too
Reminds me of Saturday night watching Head Bangar's Ball... Miss those days, music sucks so much ass now!!
+Lonnie514 Don't give up, metal still lives sister \m/
Lonnie514 It sure does!
hearts hearts hearts metal
Lonnie514
Headbangers ball.... My baby sitter and peer.
The amount of ass suckage is beyond belief w/ today's thug and bubble gum hip hop trash "music".
03:09 - throw this a thumbs-up if you still break out into the biggest shit-eating grin all these years later when that monster riff rolls in like a freight train! 🤟🏻
I will ALWAYS bang my head to COC, such an amazing and severely underrated band!!!
Hell yeah! I plug my modded Gibson Firebird with EMGs into my 06 Mesa Dual Rectifier with 2x12 cab and chug away!
Xibalba N7 Love that damn riff
I ride frieght trains
Nearly break my neck to this every-damn time. (Except when I’m driving).
RIP Reed! Will forever headbang to Blind & Deliverance in your honor! 🤘
"IF THE SYSTEM HAD ONE NECK, YOU KNOW I'D GLADLY BREAK IT!"
Brilliant line that makes me smile every time!
Live free, fall, or fight. That line makes me smile the same way as you...30 years later...so underrated band....
Who's still listening in 2024😊
2024
DUDE! C.O.C. is a forever band! Never will be irrelevant, and it's oozing pure metal!! 🤘🤘
I've been listening to it since '91 so...
I am listening to it now
Grow up evidently if we're here we're listening
RIP Reed Mullin. One of the top 5 drummers to me. This drum track changed my style. He was a definite influence
Karl is such a bad ass vocalist.
RoboticsNShenanigans blows away Pepper
Pepper is god.
Rob Erickson agree. Crushes the shit out of him.
Both are awesome and badass in their own distinct ways.
@@RicardoPetinga right I don’t get why there has to be a dick measuring contest, they’re both great
The best COC song EVER!
Most definitely.
RIP Reed Mullin! A Badass Drummer!
Such a perfect album. Blind, Deliverance, Wiseblood... just a great era for them! I loved Karl's vocals, but Pepper ruled too!
I love Pepper's work in COC, but I can't see why they let this guy go. This voice on top of this music, was so solid.
My understanding is he and the drummer did not get along.
He wouldn't fly, so that made touring with him impossible is what I heard.
@@darthvihlis9751 that weird because when Karl started Leadfoot,they flew to Europe all the time.....9/11 happening hurt them financially due to this.....
@@michaelaaron403 RIP Reed
I heard he would eat all the red Skittles, which pissed the rest of the band off to no end. They had no choice but to get rid of him.
Perfect ... From. My birth
All killer no filler on this album. Best COC lineup and album.
Perfect albums are rare, even in metal. This is absolutely one of them.
Thanks Reed for being part of this perfect record. One of my favorites of all time and always thought the drums were one of main reasons. So much energy.
I was never much of a Corrosion fan until I heard this album. I saw this video on Headbangers Ball back in the day and bought the cassette the next day. (Yes... the friggin cassette!) This was a killer album to kick off the 90's and is one of the best from that decade to this day.
Saw these guys @ the Purple Gator 9-3-91 Myrtle Beach SC. Mind blown!
I really liked that version of COC.
This album: so underrated!
"Blind" is one of my all time favorite metal albums. Agell's vocals were incredible and really made this record. Liked the rest of COC datalog but this one stands head and shoulders above the rest in my opinion.
Just to the bone rock n roll!! Does anyone know what dance he's talking about???
Heaviest C.O.C album!
tinderviddles i agree !!
tinderviddles I think the dance he is talking about is our nation's politics. "If the system had one neck, you know I'd gladly break it."
Dion Dula the title is not THAT difficult , is it ? ?
This was from a great album. Solid from the first to the last song.
With my own continuing experience of corruption and incompetence by local government, law enforcement, justice system in general, progressive socialism, "healthcare" system etc... This song is starting to make more and more sense all the time.
Speaking from the future.
YOU AIN'T SEEN NUTHIN' YET!
Kudos, Pepper, you've been their best singer since their OG singer. Yeah, been a fan since the "Animosity". 🎉
This song will get your blood pumping, kicks ass,
100% HELL YEAH!!! 🤘🤘🤘🤘
RIP Reed, thanks for the memories, another great drummer in the last few weeks, gone way too soon! 😭🤘🖤

Good ol' 90's metal. Served with good tasty groove and powerful flavor.

Lucky, that must've been a hell of a show!
You lucky dawg, to have seen c.o.c. & d.r.i. me jealous
Best COC singer
Absolutely love this track
You known this song is fucking awesome when there are no dislikes.
This is one of the F..KING COOLEST tunes! Attitude with a hint of good riff rock! Has a GREAT 70's/80's hard rock/early metal vibe to it! Glad they started to lean musically in this time period!
...kinda like Monster Magnet's Negasonic Teenage Warhead. Just F..KING COOOOOL!
hard rock? lmao

Lyrics
You're dead
Heard too much, know too much, don't know if I can take it
If the system had one neck, you know I'd gladly break it
They've got us where they want us - stuck in this sick romance
They need no chain, it's in our brain
And we don't stand a chance
If we keep doing this deadly dance
End this sick romance
The dance of the dead
It's all in my head
Know the deal, the way we feel, those of us who care
Constant pain, the endless rain becomes too much to bear
Feel the need to concede, pretend its all ok
But the horror, today, tomorrow, will never ever go away
If you give in to the deadly dance
You've got to take that chance
The dance of the dead
Its all in your head
Ain't got the time or peace of mind to deal with the likes of you
Your narrow views, your two-bit moves just tell me that you're through
You're dead
You're dead
You're dead
Don't give in, live the sin, let them see the sight
There's no answer in the end, fall or fight
Keep in mind, that you'll find them standing in the way
Run them down to the ground, make the guilty pay
And there'll be no more deadly dance
End their idiot prance
The dance of the dead
It's all in their heads
The dance of the dead
The dance of the dead
Dead
Hang the ball
Bang the ball
Headband
The
Ball !!
now that,s how it,s done. rock on boyz
R.I.P. Reed Mullin....🤟😞
theese guys rock!!!!!!!!!
Reed Mullin is a BEAST on the drums!!!
CRUNCHY!!!!
I've always enjoyed the variety and technicality of the drumming on this album. It's not blasting double bass, but brilliant rolls and cymbal work.
R.I.P.
R.I.P.
RIP Reed!! 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
My favorite album by COC. Perfect
Check out Karl Agell on PATRIARCHS IN BLACK Reach For The Scars
Just saw them in Columbus. Only Reed and Karl, kicked ass. Great album.
Curt Pence I got hang out with the band after their show at the myth a couple yrs ago
Straight from the Golden Age of Metal... Awesome tune!
Love this song!!! An awesome Halloween party song
RIP Reed!

Alvin Andanar so the song vote with a bullet is off this album so was the album split for both singers?
I wish they woulda re recorded this whole album with Pepper doing vocals on all the songs
Vote with a bullet is pepper, they both sang on the album. Pepper didn't become lead singer till 94
killer song
Good memorie
Yes he is back!
RIP Reed Mullin 😢
RIP Reed Mullins
Under..rated all the time album.....dance of the dead ....one of the better compositions of all the time...

COC was a great metal band.
COC are the Beast of the Southern Metal 🤘🤘🤘
Karl is amazing

Thanks, used to have this, but could not remember
I don't remember alot from this time except the music, I was heavily dosed on LSD.
John Doe for me its was cocaine, pot and booze, lmao.
john doe; I was also on A LOT of L.S.D. at that time as well as pot but still remember the music as well.
and my girlfriend's little sister melting, but that was a few year's before this album came out. funny shit.
Immobile on the floor frying your brains out trippin balls....good times good times
THERE WAS A GIRL WHO SAID JUST LISTEN THANK YOU
This song is my favorite
Awesome song!!!!!
Holy shit. Everything Pepper Keenan does is just simply amazing. He's a fuckin' heavy metal monster!
11 people have no Concept of good music
11? For Humanity´s disgrace is more people than 11...the pretty girl Bieber got more of 11 fans
They obviously have no ideas about real mosh mentality!!!@@
210 posers now, fuck this band rocks who could do this?
Thanks for posting!!!!
This entire album is fantastic. A must have.
HOLY BATMAN YOU ARE RIGHT!
I've been a fan of C.O.C. since 1996, when I first saw the "Clean My Wounds" video on BEAVIS AND BUTT-HEAD.
Ultimate C.o.C.
Blind was absolutely the best album of their career and firing this singer was a huge mistake
Karl killed the vocals here. He is astounding. Intense and weirdly real. Heavy music from CoC. I love Deliverance, but they were rocking it in this line-up!
Greatest vocal performance ever potentially!
Where is he now?
@@drdeath223 I’m pretty sure he might have his own band now
I love it man these guys they're my age and whatever peppercinian decides and what these guys decide and this singer is awesome you know what love it man quit knocking it down dude f****** love COC
One of my all time favorite songs! Rock on you legends!
🤘❤️🤘
r.i.p Reed... your music will live on forever
sorry for double posting.... but i have to know whos at the vocals in this song ?
RIP Reed
Almost like Black Sabbath, ahh :=)
Makes me smile(literally)
I remember buying this CD after seeing this video on Headbanger's Ball. Thought it was decent, really liked "Vote With A Bullet", but didn't give it more than a few listens. Then Deliverance came out and blew my young goddamn mind.
This is so weird watching this after seeing COC Blind play last night in Cleveland.
this is one of the few bands tht kept their metal standard good even after a vocals change...
ya i here yaa !!!
This line up was amazing the blind album is one of the best albums ever.RIP reed mullin.
very appropriate song given the current state of affairs. Loved this back in 1991 and now it's even better. Makes more sense
"If the system had one neck, you know I'd love to break it."
RIP so sad.
