I love Slayer just as much as anyone but am I the only one who thinks<br />Reign In Blood is overrated?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2464228780732396384.post-31569182371925027002009-05-24T08:18:42.269-07:002009-05-24T08:18:42.269-07:00I LOVE this album!I LOVE this album!HellOnHighHeelshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00543097693379186429noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2464228780732396384.post-1014326249497770402009-05-23T10:23:58.275-07:002009-05-23T10:23:58.275-07:00I understand where all you guys are coming from, b...I understand where all you guys are coming from, but check this out. Deliverance was the FIRST COC album I ever heard (I'd missed out on the Animosity days, etc.) Playing it over and over one day while cleaning the house, I was stunned by how complete an album it was. They essentially laid down the blueprint for Sludge metal, which hits all the right notes with me.<br /><br />So, if I imagine Animosity never existed, (which isn't hard for me to do) and only have Deliverance to listen to, I find it a great album. "Clean My Wounds," is an amazing track, as are several others on the disc.<br /><br />That's not to take anything away from Animosity, it's to ignore that it ever existed. COC is a different band after Pepper joined. Doesn't matter which version I like better. I still find Deliverance an very strong album!<br /><br />--RacerThe Ripple Effecthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15562244432603113694noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2464228780732396384.post-68719714415393710072009-05-22T07:06:47.691-07:002009-05-22T07:06:47.691-07:00Ok, this is hard.

If it never came into existence, it wouldn't matter -- sorry. It's good, but just good enough to enjoy, but not good enough for you to wake up in the middle of the night and find yourself playing air guitar to it -- which is what worthwhile albums do. (Reign In Blood bitches!)<br /><br />COC with Pepper is just okay. COC of Animosity fame...is something we'll just have to reminisce about.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2464228780732396384.post-43092428059822917232009-05-21T07:47:15.122-07:002009-05-21T07:47:15.122-07:00I like most of COC's stuff but Animosity is still ...I like most of COC's stuff but Animosity is still my favorite.

In large part due to the fact that they were a great hardcore/crossover band in the 80's. Pepper Keenan was a destroyer and the original members deserve responsibility for letting him wreck this band. There were and still are far better stoner rock bands than the C.O.C that has existed since Pepper Keenan joined. However there have not been a lot of hardcore bands the caliber of where COC were at between 85-87.
