The “Toxic Skull” logo of Corrosion of Conformity (COC) was created by artist Errol Engelbrecht in the early 1980s. This distinctive design combines a spiked skull with the internationally recognized radiation symbol, encapsulating the band’s fusion of hardcore punk and metal influences. Over time, the “Toxic Skull” has become an iconic symbol within the music community, featuring prominently on merchandise such as T-shirts, patches, and skateboards.
