Technocracy
Technocracy is an EP by the American band Corrosion of Conformity, released in 1987. It arrived between their 1985 album Animosity and 1991's Blind, and it is filed under thrash metal. One of its songs, "Hungry Child", is a re-recording of a track first heard on Animosity, so it makes a neat companion piece to that record.
The EP was reissued in 1992 through Relativity Records with four extra songs. Three of these are demo versions of songs from the EP, sung by bassist Mike Dean. That makes the expanded edition a handy place to hear how the material sounded with a different voice at the front.
