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.

Гроб, как танк меня везёт на шабаш в Содом
Я давно её хотел соблазнить в аду
Растерзать и выпить кровь чёрную вдову
Ведьму знай - в Содом марш!
Ведьму знай - некрофил!
Ведьму знай - я вампир!

Танк вампира! Марш вампира!
Танк вампира! Марш вампира!
Вельзивул - король болот, атаман чертей
Всех покойников отец, пожиратель змей
Отыщи гниющий труп посреди болот
Жажда крови и любовь мертвеца зовёт
Ведьму знай - в Содом марш!

The lyrics to Коррозия Металла's song Танк вампира depict a scene of supernatural horror and violence. The singer describes himself as a vampire, who has long desired to seduce a black widow and tear her apart to drink her black blood. He then commands the witch and calls on the power of dynamite, announcing that his coffin is a tank that will carry him to Sodom for a debaucherous party.
The lyrics are visceral, evoking powerful images of darkness, death, and the demonic. They convey a sense of danger and excitement that is at once thrilling and frightening. The repetition of the chorus and the driving, heavy metal guitar riffs create a sense of urgency and intensity that perfectly matches the song's subject matter.
Overall, this song can be interpreted as a warning against giving in to our darkest impulses and desires, or as a celebration of our primal urges and the exhilaration of taking risks and embracing our inner demons.

Обожаю этот галоп на бочках у коррозии, редко кто в треше так часто его юзал, а звучит просто бешено!)
Небо из Спичек
Текст в стиле Venom! Да и сама песня немного как раз тематика черного металла ! Гениальные вещи раньше коррозия делала!
Death Beast
Бля, вот Паук, тащемта, мощнейший был текстовик в русском метале, Рита Пушкина с Сашей Елиным нервно курят в сторонке.
