TECHNOCRACY
This ecological atrocity finally caves in on itself. Perhaps it's all for the better. Lock your doors and say goodnight, as toxins leach out of sight. We're living in the new age of electronic security. Technocracy. Probable cause. Technocracy. Bending some laws. Living in fear. Making something of yourself is making fifty grand a year. The technology that spawned our every convenience, creating more and more poison. Pledge of toxic allegiance. All American clones, on and on their sermon drones. Rabbit at your career. It goes on all around you. Part of this insanity. Working for the technocracy. There are limits to growth on this planet, but there is no limit to your greed or potential to exploit. The end of suffering? Or just an eternal scream?

This ecological atrocity finally
Caves in on itself...perhaps it's
All for the better
Lock your doors and say goodnight

As toxins leach out of sight
We're living in the new age
Of electronic security
Technocracy probable cause

Technocracy bending some laws
Living in fear making something
Of yourself is making fifty grand a year
The technology that spawned

Our every convenience
Creating more and more poison
Pledge of toxic allegiance
Technocracy probable cause

Technocracy bending laws
All American clones
On and on their sermon drones
Rabbit at your career

It goes on all around you
Part of this insanity
Working for the technocracy
Technocracy probable cause

Technocracy bending some laws
There are limits to
Growth on this planet but 
There is no limit to your

Green or potential to
Exploit, the end of 
Suffering or just an
Eternal scream

Mage the Ascension brought me here

Fuckdamn I love ass

Propagandhi anyone?

LOCK THE DOOR AND SAY GOODNIGHT

Imagine seeing this tour with Nuclear Death opening up.

I don't have to imagine: I got beaten during that concert.

I saw them opening for D.R.I. In 1990. Absolutely brilliant!!👌

I saw 'em Summer '87.

Seen C.O.C. live when they toured behind the "Technocracy" ep on September 13, 1987 in Vancouver Canada with No Means No opening (w/ their album "Sex Mad") I met vocalist Simon Bob on the floor before they played. He wanted to watch No Means No perform from the crowd's perspective. He had a tin lunch box with him. I asked "what's inside?" he said his microphone, he always keeps it with him so nobody can steal it. He said It was pretty expensive.

Saw them at the LYRIC THEATRE NYC with DEATH ANGEL NUCLEAR ASSAULT those were the days when 42st was know Disneyland the city had and edge and so did the music. So much good music from the CRO MAGS TO D.R.I. CRUmbsuckers and so on to many to mention.

I put four old C.O.C. songs on my channel. You may not have ever heard these songs before. Go to my channel "Dale Witmer" to listen to them. Enjoy!

"Technocracy" that is so metal!

I FUCKIN LOVE CROSSOVER THRASH METAL!!

its all for the better

One of the few bands that truly should have broke out and are talented to their core >: D
