Through the years Corrosion of Conformity have put out some high-octane studio albums but the real power of the band lies with their live performances. Witnessing this powerhouse band live is the only real way to experience the true intensity of their music. Lucky for us they have unleashed the live COC experience on their new CD "Live Volume". 

The band's concert at Harpo's Concert Theatre on April 20, 2001 was captured for posterity and is now the definitive COC live album. The album contains some amazing live performances of old favorites like "These Shrouded Temples..." Vote With A Bullet", "Albatross", "Senor Limpio", "My Grain", "Long Whip/Big America" and "King of the Rotten" as well as tracks from their latest studio album America's Volume Dealer including "Congratulations Song", "Zippo" and "Diablo Blvd".

While listening to a CD is no where near the same as actually being at a concert, COC did a great job of capturing the energy of their live performances on this disc. The bottom line is this CD is a must have for any serious COC fan.  If you are not familiar with COC "Live Volume" would be an excellent way to get acquainted with what the band is all about. As far as live CD's go this is one of the best to hit the shelves in the past couple years.
