 "While Deliverance was a masterpiece, Wiseblood is nothing less than a good album, combining powerful riffs with sharp solos."

 "The worst episode is undoubtedly the single 'Drowning in the Daydream', forcibly sunny and harmless compared to the dirty, ultra-heavy blues of 'Albatross'."

Wiseblood follows Corrosion of Conformity's peak album Deliverance, offering solid Southern metal with heavy riffs and skilled musicianship. While it lacks some standout tracks and a raw sound, it still showcases the band's influence on the 90s metal scene. The album blends stoner rock, blues, and southern hard rock with moments of grunge and mainstream appeal. Guest vocals from James Hetfield add to its appeal. Overall, Wiseblood is a respectable but not groundbreaking release. Explore Wiseblood to experience a key moment in Southern metal’s evolution—listen now and dive into Corrosion of Conformity's powerful riffs and gritty energy!
