COC as long as I can pretend that Pepper Keenan doesn't exist. Actually, my pick is based on two short records (Animosity and Technocracy), but both are among the very best metal/hardcore crossover albums ever.
I don't think you can ignore the Pepper Keenan era. Dealing with it is also one of the top metal/hardocre albums ever. Okay that's one against two. I think both band's debuts are close to each other. Four of a kind and Violent Pacification are way better than anything COC did after Technocracy. I am going to go with DRI in a close one.

Dealing With It is just one of the all-time great recordings of pure angst, just for the recording of them verbally duking it out in the basement with Dad. COC left their imprint and I like both eras, but DRI was very important for multiple reasons.
Gotta go with C.O.C. although I love D.R.I., too. I was lucky enough to see C.O.C. many times at CB's Animosity and Technocracy era. Plus, I interviewed Reed for my high school newspaper!
