Long Whip / Big America - Corrosion Of Conformity (Wiseblood)

2. Long Whip/Big America - Wiseblood (1996) - Corrosion Of Conformity

[chicoshovelhead]

This entire album kicks ass. I play it so loud shit falls off shelves...eyes water...ears bleed...

[TheOtto]

Old school southern metal made before it's time. The most underrated metal band or band in all of history. I mean human history

[nohawkrismorrison]

Corrosion so underrated! So many good songs!!

[jessesisson]

Bought this album the day it came out, and for almost 30 years it's been my favorite album of all time.
This song just screams "Mid-90's".

[alanknox]

I remember reading the review of Wiseblood in either Metal Maniacs or Metal Edge magazine and thinking I have to go find this CD right now. This is how we used to discover new music kids.

The distorted guitar tone on this album is sonic perfection!! Thanks Mr. Custer!!

[badgerattoadhall]

Even in the 1990s this was an underated album.

[alabama]

sounds like something from 70's. One of the best albums in history.

[nicoleterlesky]

Fucking eerie. It's still appropriate for the times. How little things change over the years.

[mikb]

One of my favourite tracks of all time.

[jayross]

This song is fucking wicked, the lyrics hold value today as it did 20 years ago, as it will in 20 more 🤟

Saw the news today, some D.C. suit trying to break away,
Said he lost another million
Just another old man trying to pass the buck with a dirty hand
Good thing he knows his bible

Stick his ass in hell ever better in in this tiny cell
Make him understand the meaning
Of these words they try to preach just to keep them out of the nations reach
I guess it's all for the better

Take it all away
Take me
Won't you take me far away
Hey hey hey what's that game you play
Will it make me richer?
Cause I do not have a dime and I hate to waste your time
Maybe I'm wrong but I think this whip is too long

Now I was barely 21 lying in a ditch with a loaded gun
So I gave my heart away
But I got it back today in a velvet box stamped USA
Now all the neighbors call me hero.

I was about to lose my mind so I buckled down and did some crime
But it wasn't what they taught me
Hit the road in high pursuit now I'm on the run just like a suit
Didn't know it was this easy

Take it all away
Take me
Won't you take me far away
Hey hey hey what's that game you play
Will it make me a poor man?
Cause I got an extra dime and I lose it every time
Maybe I'm wrong but I think this whip is too long

Hey hey hey what's that game you play
Will it make me richer?
Cause I do not have a dime and I hate to waste your time
Maybe I'm wrong but I think this whip is too long

No more, no more
See I can't find the time to crawl across the line
But I can't stay here

No more, no more
See I can't find the time to crawl across the line
But I can't stay here till I die

[maverick]

Heard this band on a motocross video back in the day...loved them every since

[gelflingmama]

Still relevant today. Only now they don’t even try to hide it. 😂😂😂😢😢😢

[nickalexander]

Rip Reed Mullin such an innovative drummer one of the greats period

[jeppeforsatan]

Still in all of my life I can't find of or recommend a bette hard rock album than Wiseblood. The second album in that system might very likely be Deliverance.

[livinginaterminalstate]

Yep one of the greatest songs ever written

[afrolund]

This song along with "Foreclosure Of A Dream" by ... (You should know!!!) seem to be incredibly intuitive considering the current state our country is in!!!

[biesse]

More relatable in 2021 this is rocking

[dragons_red]

Can't decide if this or King of Rotten is the best track



Definently this one
