CORROSION OF CONFORMITY's 'Eye For An Eye' To Be Reissued In November - Sep. 5, 2012
Candlelight Records has set a November 6 North American release date for CORROSION OF CONFORMITY's "Eye For An Eye". This special reissue has been remastered/packaged and includes the EP "Six Songs With Mike Singing". Both titles have been out of print for years. It follows the successful release of the band's self-titled album earlier this year. A deluxe digibook edition of the album, limited to 1000 for North America, will be available at limited retailers and via Candlelight's official webstore. The digibook version includes extended liner notes and a rare pictorial gallery.

Twenty-six songs showcase the early sonic years of the North Carolina-based band. Far more punk than their later recordings, the album found an immediate fanbase. Amazon customers over the years have called the album an "undisputed classic," while noting it is "for the true skaters of the mid-to-late '80s," and "brings me back to a good time of hardcore/punk."

Comments guitarist Woody Weatherman, "We were just kids when we wrote and recorded these tunes." Vocalist/bassist Mike Dean notes, "Making that album was our dream and we worked hard to make it happen because it was the vehicle to allow us to go out and play two hundred shows a year, like the bands we looked up to — BLACK FLAG, BAD BRAINS, D.O.A."

Originally released in 1984, "Eye For An Eye" featured the original lineup of Weatherman, Dean, drummer Reed Mullin and vocalist Eric Eycke. Reissued to incorporate the 1989 EP by Mike Dean (who left the band between 1987-1992), "Eye For An Eye" is raw in sound but focused on message. The years that followed would see the band rise to worldwide popularity with breakthrough and Billboard-charting releases "Blind" and "Deliverance".

Formed in Raleigh in 1982, CORROSION OF CONFORMITY quickly transformed heavy music. Politically charged and socially aware, the band has influenced countless others and today remains humble about their accomplishments. With over 1.1 million albums sold in the United States, the band continues to find new fans via nonstop touring.

"We had a lot of fun doing it and it's great to have this album officially back out there again," says Weatherman. "I had basically written this off as being our sloppy beginner's effort but listening to it now, I really hear a few songs that hold up well," adds Dean.

Awww, fuck yeah! Seriously, "Eye For An Eye", "Animosity" and the Mike EP are the best things that they ever did. As far as the rest of their catalog, no thanks. They were hardcore and I prefer them that way.

Used copies of this go for big bucks. I've always wondered why the band never reissued it. Nice that it'll finally be available at a reasonable price.

Wow 28 years later and I still hate this shit. Sorry but CoC sucks when Eric/Mike is the singer. The stuff with Pepper Keenan rules but the rest of it? meh...the music is good but the vocals are awful.

Next up, please, the Animosity reissue! My CD was scratched to hell long before a time when it was possible to make burned CD back-ups of all your albums.

THIS ALBUM AND IT'S COVER ARE BOTH ICONIC AND SYNONYMOUS WITH THE WORD HARDCORE.

THEIR METAL STUFF WAS OK, BUT TO ME THIS IS THE "REAL" C.O.C.
