Korrozia Metalla was founded in 1984 in Moscow, USSR by bass guitarist Sergey Troitsky, better known under stage name Pauk (Spider). All other members of the band have also taken stage names: Boar (Sergey Vysokosov) - guitars, Schizophrenic - vocals, Crutch (Roman Lebedev) - guitars, Sucks (Vadim Mikhailov) - bass guitar, Morgue - drums. The band's first live show was illegally carried out in an appartement house basement. Annoyed by their noise, the neighbours called for police, which forced Korrozia to leave the stage.
Next year the band joined Moscow Rock Lab, which allowed to perform rock music legally. The band's first album, Orden Satany (Order of the Satan) was released in 1988. No Soviet state label was ready to release that kind of music, so Pauk created his own one, Corporation of Heavy Rock (КТР in russian abbreviature). Before the album was recorded, Schizophrenic was fired and since then Boar performed vocals as well as guitar. Morgue was replaced by Yasher (Lizard). Orden Satany presented a raw thrash metal with heavy hardcore punk influence (the so-called crossover thrash).
During Perestroika, censorship was lifted, and Korrozia soon became notorious for lyrics and imagiery that, although consistent with western death metal traditions, were quite provocative by Soviet Russia's measures. For their live shows, they employed strip girls to dance on stage and decorated it with pyrotechnics and "satanic" imagiery. Similarly, the band's lyrics consisted of black humour, describing violence, bloodshed and sodomy. Korrozia Metalla albums were named Cannibal (1990) or Sadism (1992), and their 'trademark' songs include such tittles as Vampire Tank, AIDS, Eat Alive, Dead Rasputin.
Since 1993 Pauk eventually fired all the original lineup and gradually shifted to right-wing ultranationalist lyrics, similar to that of Oi! and White Power bands. During the promotional tour for Computer Hitler album, Korrozia even employed a Hitler impersonator for their live shows. Pauk again indicated his interest in politics when nominated himself for mayor of Moscow. Currently he runs grindcore side project Anal Nosorog.
Korrozia's songs were covered by the number of artists. The band's best known song, Russian vodka, was covered by Koldbrann and Aggressor.
The band's lyrics contain a lot of abuse and references to violence, satanism, sex, alcohol, and, in the recent years, neo-Nazism. In recent years their music style changed to thrash metal with grindcore, punk and industrial influences.
Later, in second half of 00's the Spider changed the band's style to previous. For example, Война миров (The War of Worlds) and 666 like albums show less nationalist and more thrash and humorous, like in 80-90's.

The lyrics to Коррозия Металла's song Русская водка is a tribute to the Russian liquor, vodka. The lyrics are a call to action to imbibe the fiery spirit and give in to the devilish temptation that comes with it. The first stanza talks about filling the glass with fiery water and drinking with Satan. This is a clear indication of the rebellious and daring nature of the song.
In the second stanza, the lyrics talk about releasing the torpedo and the wild motor, both suggestive of the explosive nature of vodka. Vodka is likened to gunpowder, and Satanic in nature, reinforcing the dangerous and alluring quality of the drink. The chorus is a repetition of the desire to drink Russian vodka and a call to "give vodka" as if it is a weapon that can be used.
The lyrics of the song are intense and showcase the powerful effect of addiction, particularly to alcoholic beverages. The song's lyrics are a reminder of the dangers of indulgence and the allure of the dark side.

Historical context: Same as with Korrozia metalla debut album Russian Vodka was also recorded twice. This is re-recorded version from 1993 while the original rare version was made in 1989 and published ilegally on tapes by band's own label KTR. In 1993 band started re-recording the Russian Vodka material because original master tapes were lost and vinyl/CD reissue would not be possible without doing so. Aleksander Bondarenko was a drummer on 1989 version but Andrey Shatunovsky replaced him in 1992 thus that was him who played on new version of album four years later. 4 songs from 1988-1989 era which were performed live but not recorded yet (Chorniy korabl, Zov teney, Nizverzhenye v Malmstrim and Noiz) were finished and added to 1993 album too.
