I haven't been "blown away" by a Disturbed record since Ten Thousand Fists. Videos like this show why I try to expand my musical horizons. Another great video. 🤘🤘
"The Sickness" CD art has the face of "the guy" around the disc portraying the band members with their facial piercings. Teen-me thought it was so fucking cool they turned those faces into a character
I wasn't ever really a huge fan of the band, but I still like Believe. There's a lot of really cool riffs and catchy tracks on there, and it there are some pretty fun drum parts too. It brings me straight back to my LD50/Lateralus/Reroute to Remain/Chocolate Starfish/Issues era of teenage angsty nu metal :)
Having my first listen to "Asylum" and totally digging it! Thank you for bringing this to my attention. I stopped at "Believe", and never went back more, but I will definitely pick up "Asylum".
I totally agree about their last two albums, you did bring up a good point about their earlier albums though I grew up listening to this band i was 6 when the sickness came out so I have some nostalgic feel for the first two. Indestructible was sick in my opinion but I can see where your coming from, good insight sir
Never been a disturbed fan, had never heard a disturbed album until 2 weeks ago and decided to check out Indestructible and it was a fucking BANGER. Nothing life-changing but i was surprised by how consistently entertained i was the entire time, and a fair amount of the material got stuck in my head, super catchy, which i wasnt expecting. Made me intrigued to check out the rest of their discography.
Disturbed were one of the first bands I got into before really getting into metal so they have a soft spot for me. With that being said, they have an inconsistent discography. The Sickness is a bit overrated and hasn't aged that well. There's good songs, however there's lots of nu metal cheese to be found. Believe, Ten Thousand Fists, and Indestructible are their best albums. I feel when they aren't trying to be either nu metal or alt rock and are just being a hard rock band, they are at their best. Asylum had decent songs but also filler songs. Immortalized was boring and Evolution was easily their worst. I hope Divisive is a step up from their previous two.
As a former disturbed fan myself they were the gateway band that got me into metal music when I was around 14 or 15 years old (both Disturbed and Avenged Sevenfold). Personally their better years from 2005-2010 and albums like Indestructible and Asylum are probably there best ones (Asylum overall is my personal favorite as well). Ten Thousand Fists I use to love it but not as much as I use to. But since they came back from their hiatus on 2015 with Immortalized I completely lose that spark and distance away from them after Evolution.
Yeah I had a feeling that Evolution wasn’t going to get any high marks. I mean, surely that has to be the band’s low point going forward. No Mommy Don’t hit Me!
OH WAH AH AH AH!!!!!! I liked them WAAAAYYY more as a kid, they are a bit of a nostalgic band for me. I definitely don’t like them as much as I used to but I do have a soft spot for them for most part. S: Ten Thousand Fists, Indestructible A: Believe B: Asylum C: The Sickness D: Immortalized FUCK THIS ALBUM: Evolution
From what I gather from the comments and some friends I have that are fans, Disturbed is a band that requires either adolescence or nostalgia to truly appreciate. Gladly, I have neither.
Which is weird, because I was born in 2000, the same year the sickness came out, and I started listening to disturbed in high school in 2017 and 2018, which would be very late adolescence and early young adulthood, so it’s like I’m an exception.
@@neneargueta8332same here. Born in 2002, got into them later in high school once I started weightlifting. And that’s probably why I got so into them. Lots of great songs to work out to
Never listened to them and I’m always dubious about bands that do cover versions. Maybe I’ll go listen to Asylum. I might even review the new album when it comes out. You’ve inspired me.
The Sickness hit me hard as a teenager, so hard in fact that i never cared to listen to another album. It's like a restaurant that has it's signature dish and then there are also burgers and kid's meals on the menu.
Honestly, this video makes me want to try listening to Disturbed again. I was a never a super huge fan, they had some great songs like Stricken, Indestructible & Asylum, but I never really got into their stuff, they always seemed to be more of a singles band where you just picked out your favorite songs from each album... although I do remember Asylum being really good from start to finish. Great video!
Disturbed were one of my gateways into metal when I was 13, when I first heard "Into The Fire" on the Madden NFL 09 soundtrack on PSP (remember THAT thing?). I check on them periodically, but I don't really end up LOVING any of the stuff they keep putting out. They are just kinda'.... there. I remember when that freaking Sound of Silence cover went viral on Facebook and all of the 50-60-year old dads and moms on there were all like, "oH My Goodness!!!! This is so beautiful!!!! 🥺😭😭😭😭" and I was like "...really? 😑". Are you up for doing every Asking Alexandria album?
I got into them when i was probably about 14 or 15ish when their 2nd album came out the sickness was one of the first cd's i ever bought with my own money. My early teens i was all in on nu metal, i thought it was the heaviest shit ever until i was about 17 when a guy i worked at a restaurant with slipped me a Nile album and my whole music landscape started to change. Ten thousand fists was probably the last album i ever listened to by them.
Disturbed has been one of my favourite metal bands, but I personally think Evolution is great, I love the acoustic elements on most of the tracks and I love 'Hold On To Memories' as the best song on the album. My favourite album has to be 'Immortalized' in my view, but I really enjoy the other albums as well.
I've been watching alot of your videos and am a huge fan! Great content my guy! I still have a soft spot for Disturbed. They were the first "real" metal band that got me into the heavier side of rock and metal. I seen them live when I was still a teenager when The Vengeful One came out and had such a blast. It's always fun and interesting to see others talk about nostalgia bands and whatnot haha.
I like the first 3 albums well enough. Not every song is great but I enjoy quite a few tracks off of each album. The next few albums are a bit more hit and miss for me. Then evolution. Well you described that one perfectly.
I love Simon and Garfunkel's version of Sound of silence but I also enjoy David's vocal performance on the cover! It's ironic how the success of that song led them to "Evolution", which is by far their worst record. Believe and Asylum are my favourites, but the rest didn't age well for me. To be honest, I'm a bit worried of what comes next with "Divisive".
For me they are like fastfood: simple, convenient, but i would get sick, if i only had them. That said they remind me of the time where i was 12 and heard them in AMVs. I sometimes like to go back to them, but they never evoke any strong emotions in me. They're kinda like a cheeseburger from Micky D's after a long day of work: enjoyable but nothing extraordinary.
You should look into the story behind Stupify from The Sickness album. I’d say it’s a pretty mature topic that they touch on for that song. Not juvenile at all.
Ive definitely fell off of disturbed as ive gotten older (and i was more into slipknot when I was starting out in my metal journey anyway): I relistened to The Sickness on the way back home from a wedding for the funsies, and while I'm surprised that i enjoyed a lot more tracks than i figured i would (Voices, Stupify, The Game, Violence Fetish, Conflict), and had fun with the worse songs like Droppin Plates and Meaning of Life, I wouldnt say i enjoy it as an album anymore. Good songs, not a great record to just listen to (and i have the same opinion on albums like Iowa, which ive gotten heat for). Which I think extends to a lot of their material. Like i enjoy handle of songs on each record up through asylum, and thats where i tapped out.
I always thought the musicianship of Disturbed didn't match the impact and power of the vocals. I think if the musicianship was more like Charred Walls Of The Damned or later heavier Judas Priest.... the instrumentation and vocal delivery would be more balanced. Bu that's just my opinion. Their riffs have always been really "standard issue" sounding nu-metal.
Disturbed is...Not something i outright hate, but its something that im just not really into anymore, i liked them when i was like 14, but nowadays i find their music "okay" not the worst, but not something i would willingly listen to, its like Broccoli, its not bad, but would you really choose Broccoli to eat when you can have something like a nicely done and tasty Lasagne? Edit: also Sound of Silence isn't the worst cover ever done, that honor goes to About a Girl by Puddle of Mudd
Definitely loved disturbed in my early teen years. The first four albums are very nostalgic to me in a similar way that Korn, Seether, soad, slipknot are, as I'm approaching my thirties my tastes in metal have evolved to where alot of that stuff is more bland. Whenever I hear something from the sickness on the radio I definitely don't complain though.
Im the same I didn't listen to Disturbed growing up and when I finally did it was at the Download Festival and I wasn't impressed with their music while everyone around me loved them
i actually kinda like disturbed just cos of the cheesiness of the band, although i do think david draiman and the band have very little to say, as you said they're just pointing their middle finger like a high school disolusioned youth but theyre grown adults, my go to are the lost childrena nd ten thousand fists just cos i think those are the most listenable from top to bottom
I agree on your take on The Sound of Silence. Never cared for it. Never understood why everyone loved it so much or why it was one of their greatest hits. It just doesn’t sound good to me and doesn’t even make sense for this band. I mean I appreciate them going for a unique approach, but doesn’t fit for me.
I agree with the overall rating of Ten Thousand Fists, but gotta say that Decadence, Stricken, Guarded and the title track are absolute BANGERS. The rest of the album is pretty forgettable tho.
I don't hate the band. They have a few songs here and there that are bangers. That laugh that Draiman does in "Inside the Fire" is really cheesy and delightful at the same time 😆 overall, their earlier stuff is fine for the most part and their later stuff is pretty bland.
I've heard maybe three Disturbed songs in my life, including the 'Sound of SIlence" cover. Speaking of which: Thank you! i also hate that cover. The thing that gets me is that older folks who really grew up with the original, like my mother, were totally taken in by the bombast. "It's better than the original!" she said. Get outta here! They took away the stuff that made the song great in the first place -- as you said, it's the stark, honest sound of it -- two guys and their guitars (well, and some drums on the later "electric" version) and some absolutely gorgeous vocal harmony, and turned it into this overblown orchestral mess that throws everything but the kitchen sink at you. I like to adopt a tolerant, easy-going attitude about music and peoples' personal tastes, but there's just something so phony about this cover taht I find myself seriously questioning the aesthetic tastes of the people who fall over themselves to praise it. Anyway, never had any interest in them; by 2000 anything nu metal was so, so very far off my own radar. Maybe I'll poke at Asylum someday.
Believe is a solid album with some strong writing. Ten Thousand Fists and Indestructible have a few good cuts on 'em. Asylum is rock solid. The Sickness is fine I guess. Rest of their stuff doesn't do much for me.
I think The Sickness and Evolution are both terrible in their own ways, but their other albums are generally fine, with Indestructible and TTF being their best probably
I think the worst thing about them is the lyrics at this point, especially the last two albums, all super vague yelling at the air type of stuff. Draiman was never really a poet but he certainly wasn't illiterate either. It's too bad because as a singer his voice destroys he's fucking killer and unique. Also the guitar solos are underrated very melodic and tasty stuff especially on Indestructible
Me and my friend used to jam this band in the school yard between classes from a shitty flip phone speaker, those were truly the days lol. I believe indestructible had just come out too during that time. Heavy nostalgia factor to this band for that reason
Disturbed has always been one of “those” bands for me. Ya know, the one that annoys you because of the sheer amount of talent going to waste. At this point I’m not gonna pay attention to what they do, because even with zero expectations I still get bored. Maybe that makes me “close minded”, but I just can’t find it in me to care.
I didn't care for most of the album Asylum, but oddly enough the title track is easily one of my favourite songs of theirs. Indestructible and Ten Thousand Fists are probably my favourite of their albums. Aside from a couple of songs, I find The Sickness to be a little cringey. Immortalized and Evolution have a few songs that I really like, but for the most part I could take or leave them. I haven't had a chance to give Divisive a good listen, so no opinion just yet.
I appreciate what you’re saying. But when these albums actually came out your ratings would be slightly higher. I started becoming very disappointed with them after asylum
From somebody who grew up listening to disturbed, I am going to say that Disturbed is very repetitive on many many songs. Albums like Ten Thousand Fists, Asylum, Immortalized all are MY favorite records from them. I can see why YOU don't like their cover of Sound of Silence, but I fuckin LOVE it. Always wondered why people hated it but when you explained it, I get it. I will say I disagree 900% but I respect your opinion.
Was a big fan of Disturbed in the 2000s. I don't think any of it has aged well. I can't find one song I can play these days without smelling the nu metal cheese.
It’s funny that you hate the sound of silence cover, and yet Paul Simon saw the band perform it on the Conan O’Brien show and praised the band for the performance.
@@themetalmeltdownofficial sounds like you really don’t like or think less of Paul Simon because he praised the band for their performance, there isn’t anything wrong about that or anything.
Disturbed was the heavier linkin park for me. The first 3 albums were like Jesus Christ shit them out onto my iPod but they lost me at asylum. Maybe cuz I was transitioning into deathcore, posthardcore and metalcore stuff it wasn’t brooootal enough. Now that I listen to everything and anything maybe I’ll go back and give it a listen. Good reviews I agree with it all Disturbed is a good but not great band.
I defnitely think Asylum was the last good record they released, though I think Believe is by far the best. Everything from Immortalized onwards has been mediocre with the exceptions being a couple songs from the last two albums like A Reason to Fight, Feeding The Fire and Don't Tell me. I find the biggest problem with them to be consistency, they've always been hit or miss.
I never got into Disturbed, but then, I never got into the Nu-metal all that much. Their stuff didn't annoy me, I just didn't feel one way or the other. My ears pricked up when Ten Thousand Fist title track came out. I still think the song is awesome. And at the time, I did notice it was more straight-forward metal than their older material. It wasn't enough to get me to seek out more but yeah, Disturbed doesn't make me want to jam pencils in my ears.
Honestly, I think Trivium's Vengeance Falls is the best thing that David Draimen ever did, simply cuz I hate Disturbed and Veangance Falls has the Trivium vibe. The new album's gonna suck fucking ass and I'm gonna stay away from it like the black death
I think your channel would benefit from more professional video techniques it feels a little bit vloggy if that's what you're going for cool I think with the potential for growth however you would greatly benefit from implementing more professional video techniques and video editing styles to really make your videos pop and appeal and still the same type of content I think you have a lot of potential to be a high-end music album reviewer but I would like personally to see a little bit more of a professional feel
I enjoyed Ten Thousand Fists, it's probably my favorite album from them. I liked Immortalized well enough and Evolution was pretty good to me. I am, however, not looking forward to their new one coming. The name of it just gives me a bad vibe and I've seen David Draimens social medias. 😂 But that's just my opinion. Also...Was The Lost Children a compilation or something? I could've sworn they had another album.
I left Disturbed behind after "Asylum". It is their best album, and what came before had some bangers, some mid tracks, and some absolute shit, imo. Haven't heard the following 2 albums, as I heard they weren't worth the time, and it seems you've confirmed that.
Thank you for this, I guess. I am not a Disturbed fan at all. It will be interesting to see if there will be haters for this. And I also can't freaking stand their cover of The Sound Of Silence. It is so terrible. It should have never been covered. It's a classic song that needs to remain on its own in my opinion. I would give that song a -10,000 out of 10.
I know you're Canadian, but considering today is Election Day in the United States, I wonder why you didn't just review the discography of an iconic political band, for example, Rage Against the Machine? A much better choice in my opinion than a radio darling band like Disturbed that tries to get political at different times and often misses the mark.
These guys carry the mantra of a singles band, through and through. Which doesn't surprise that the music has gotten consistently staler, but the production being so inherently bad recently is inexcusable! From what I've heard from Divisive, it aint exactly great in that department.
I’m cool with people having their own opinions, you either like something or you don’t, but for you to say that the cover for “sound of silence” is horrible, shows me that your just looking to for attention
@@themetalmeltdownofficial who said it “bothered” me, I just wanted to let you know that I see what your doing, also you fail to realize that the ballads on evolution are mostly inspired by a lot of singers we lost the prior year of the albums release, like Chester and Corey etc, it pretty clear when u listen to the lyrics on some of them like “uninvited guest” “hold on to memories” “already gone” a lot of people hate that evolution has so many ballads, but I think it’s pretty thoughtful of them to take them time to dedicate some songs to people who’ve passed…
@@tysdogvlogs6697 I mean, you dismissed everything I said as me just 'looking for attention'. Sounds like you're pretty bothered to me. But whatevs dude, song sucks, album sucks. Deal with it.
@@themetalmeltdownofficial your not even a disturbed fan soooo, how could we expect you to give honest opinions. Seems like u disliked them straight out the gate

IMO my favorite song from Disturbed is "The Vengeful One", especially when its played with Hellsing AMV.
The Sickness hit me hard as a teenager, so hard in fact that i never cared to listen to another album. It's like a restaurant that has it's signature dish and then there are also burgers and kid's meals on the menu.

The best Disturbed song is The Night

I don't hate the band. They have a few songs here and there that are bangers. That laugh that Draiman does in "Inside the Fire" is really cheesy and delightful at the same time 😆 overall, their earlier stuff is fine for the most part and their later stuff is pretty bland.
I hope he added that laugh for levity, cause of how deep and dark the song meaning is.
I've heard maybe three Disturbed songs in my life, including the 'Sound of SIlence" cover. Speaking of which: Thank you! i also hate that cover. The thing that gets me is that older folks who really grew up with the original, like my mother, were totally taken in by the bombast. "It's better than the original!" she said. Get outta here! They took away the stuff that made the song great in the first place -- as you said, it's the stark, honest sound of it -- two guys and their guitars (well, and some drums on the later "electric" version) and some absolutely gorgeous vocal harmony, and turned it into this overblown orchestral mess that throws everything but the kitchen sink at you. I like to adopt a tolerant, easy-going attitude about music and peoples' personal tastes, but there's just something so phony about this cover taht I find myself seriously questioning the aesthetic tastes of the people who fall over themselves to praise it.
Anyway, never had any interest in them; by 2000 anything nu metal was so, so very far off my own radar. Maybe I'll poke at Asylum someday.
This is the first thing that comes to mind when I think of Disturbed… lol

Iconic
Believe was the last good record. Yes, 10,000 fists was shit aside from like 3 songs.
Believe is a solid album with some strong writing. Ten Thousand Fists and Indestructible have a few good cuts on 'em. Asylum is rock solid. The Sickness is fine I guess. Rest of their stuff doesn't do much for me.
They are an amazing band i think that evry music fan shoud know them
Dude should just name is channel The Metal Fuckin' Meltdown.
If RUclips let me I would lmao
F'n lol
I think The Sickness and Evolution are both terrible in their own ways, but their other albums are generally fine, with Indestructible and TTF being their best probably
Believe is so underrated , it is on another level compared to the sickness.
I think the worst thing about them is the lyrics at this point, especially the last two albums, all super vague yelling at the air type of stuff. Draiman was never really a poet but he certainly wasn't illiterate either. It's too bad because as a singer his voice destroys he's fucking killer and unique. Also the guitar solos are underrated very melodic and tasty stuff especially on Indestructible
Should have done a7x discography would have been a better time then disturbed lol 😂
Lmao eventually, perhaps when they drop that new album.
@@themetalmeltdownofficial I’ll be waiting lol 😂
Me and my friend used to jam this band in the school yard between classes from a shitty flip phone speaker, those were truly the days lol. I believe indestructible had just come out too during that time. Heavy nostalgia factor to this band for that reason
You should review every motörhead album att some point. You've alredy done most of the metal great's so it would be criminal not talk about motörhead.
Honestly, I think that'd be kinda boring. A lot of their albums are very similar and I'd run out of stuff to say real quick.
@@themetalmeltdownofficial I don't fully agree, if you listen to ace of spades and another perfect day thay sound very different from one another.
Disturbed has always been one of “those” bands for me. Ya know, the one that annoys you because of the sheer amount of talent going to waste. At this point I’m not gonna pay attention to what they do, because even with zero expectations I still get bored. Maybe that makes me “close minded”, but I just can’t find it in me to care.
I didn't care for most of the album Asylum, but oddly enough the title track is easily one of my favourite songs of theirs. Indestructible and Ten Thousand Fists are probably my favourite of their albums. Aside from a couple of songs, I find The Sickness to be a little cringey. Immortalized and Evolution have a few songs that I really like, but for the most part I could take or leave them. I haven't had a chance to give Divisive a good listen, so no opinion just yet.
Their Debut was a thing.
Everything else..... was less.
I appreciate what you’re saying. But when these albums actually came out your ratings would be slightly higher. I started becoming very disappointed with them after asylum
For some godamn reason, I know Disturbed is formulaic and criticized by metalheads, and for solid reason, but man I hate that I actually like them 😂😂😂
From somebody who grew up listening to disturbed, I am going to say that Disturbed is very repetitive on many many songs. Albums like Ten Thousand Fists, Asylum, Immortalized all are MY favorite records from them. I can see why YOU don't like their cover of Sound of Silence, but I fuckin LOVE it. Always wondered why people hated it but when you explained it, I get it. I will say I disagree 900% but I respect your opinion.
Why do a Band discography Review If you Do not like the band? I respect your opinion but its very hard to review something you dont understand
Was a big fan of Disturbed in the 2000s. I don't think any of it has aged well. I can't find one song I can play these days without smelling the nu metal cheese.
It’s funny that you hate the sound of silence cover, and yet Paul Simon saw the band perform it on the Conan O’Brien show and praised the band for the performance.
Disappointing but not too shocking honestly, its a popular song all things considered
@@themetalmeltdownofficial sounds like you really don’t like or think less of Paul Simon because he praised the band for their performance, there isn’t anything wrong about that or anything.
Disturbed was the heavier linkin park for me. The first 3 albums were like Jesus Christ shit them out onto my iPod but they lost me at asylum. Maybe cuz I was transitioning into deathcore, posthardcore and metalcore stuff it wasn’t brooootal enough. Now that I listen to everything and anything maybe I’ll go back and give it a listen. Good reviews I agree with it all Disturbed is a good but not great band.
They were always hit and miss for me, The sickness was a ok record
I defnitely think Asylum was the last good record they released, though I think Believe is by far the best. Everything from Immortalized onwards has been mediocre with the exceptions being a couple songs from the last two albums like A Reason to Fight, Feeding The Fire and Don't Tell me. I find the biggest problem with them to be consistency, they've always been hit or miss.
Disturbed is great; almost as good as Korn, dare i say!
Why????
Say what you will about Disturbed but Asylum does rip
I never got into Disturbed, but then, I never got into the Nu-metal all that much. Their stuff didn't annoy me, I just didn't feel one way or the other. My ears pricked up when Ten Thousand Fist title track came out. I still think the song is awesome. And at the time, I did notice it was more straight-forward metal than their older material. It wasn't enough to get me to seek out more but yeah, Disturbed doesn't make me want to jam pencils in my ears.
Honestly, I think Trivium's Vengeance Falls is the best thing that David Draimen ever did, simply cuz I hate Disturbed and Veangance Falls has the Trivium vibe. The new album's gonna suck fucking ass and I'm gonna stay away from it like the black death
It'll probably be fine honestly, the singles I've heard are lame but inoffensive. Only one way to find out though...
I think your channel would benefit from more professional video techniques it feels a little bit vloggy if that's what you're going for cool I think with the potential for growth however you would greatly benefit from implementing more professional video techniques and video editing styles to really make your videos pop and appeal and still the same type of content I think you have a lot of potential to be a high-end music album reviewer but I would like personally to see a little bit more of a professional feel
I enjoyed Ten Thousand Fists, it's probably my favorite album from them. I liked Immortalized well enough and Evolution was pretty good to me. I am, however, not looking forward to their new one coming. The name of it just gives me a bad vibe and I've seen David Draimens social medias. 😂
But that's just my opinion.
Also...Was The Lost Children a compilation or something? I could've sworn they had another album.
It is a compilation, a collection of B-sides to be exact.
Dude Seriously??? TEN THOUSAND FISTS Is one of their best albums!!! 2/5?? Wtf?? Should of got 4/5. Smh...Album is incredible!!!
Yes, seriously. Calm down bud.
I feel sorry for you may your sanity rest in piece after putting your self through the abortions they call songs!
A kid commentary…
Honestly I’m not a fan of them at all. I like the sickness and 10,000 fists decent enough, but aside from that nothing for me
Sounds like you just hate Disturbed honestly... these albums are way better than what youre putting them to be
I left Disturbed behind after "Asylum". It is their best album, and what came before had some bangers, some mid tracks, and some absolute shit, imo. Haven't heard the following 2 albums, as I heard they weren't worth the time, and it seems you've confirmed that.
Thank you for this, I guess. I am not a Disturbed fan at all. It will be interesting to see if there will be haters for this. And I also can't freaking stand their cover of The Sound Of Silence. It is so terrible. It should have never been covered. It's a classic song that needs to remain on its own in my opinion. I would give that song a -10,000 out of 10.
One of the worst cover songs of all time, right up there with Motley Crue's "Like A Virgin".
Hmm why not review the new Disturbed album which came out a few weeks ago called Divisive?
Its not out till the 18th my dude. But yes, it will very likely be reviewed.
I know you're Canadian, but considering today is Election Day in the United States, I wonder why you didn't just review the discography of an iconic political band, for example, Rage Against the Machine?
A much better choice in my opinion than a radio darling band like Disturbed that tries to get political at different times and often misses the mark.
Fuck that would've been a good idea lmao. Ah well, maybe we'll just do a RATM video for shits n' giggles sometime soon.
Disturbed suck! Simply put! They are the Nickelback of metal!
These guys carry the mantra of a singles band, through and through. Which doesn't surprise that the music has gotten consistently staler, but the production being so inherently bad recently is inexcusable! From what I've heard from Divisive, it aint exactly great in that department.
I’m cool with people having their own opinions, you either like something or you don’t, but for you to say that the cover for “sound of silence” is horrible, shows me that your just looking to for attention
I said its horrible because its horrible. If you truly are cool with other people having their own opinions, this shouldn't bother you.
@@themetalmeltdownofficial who said it “bothered” me, I just wanted to let you know that I see what your doing, also you fail to realize that the ballads on evolution are mostly inspired by a lot of singers we lost the prior year of the albums release, like Chester and Corey etc, it pretty clear when u listen to the lyrics on some of them like “uninvited guest” “hold on to memories” “already gone” a lot of people hate that evolution has so many ballads, but I think it’s pretty thoughtful of them to take them time to dedicate some songs to people who’ve passed…
@@tysdogvlogs6697 I mean, you dismissed everything I said as me just 'looking for attention'. Sounds like you're pretty bothered to me. But whatevs dude, song sucks, album sucks. Deal with it.
@@themetalmeltdownofficial your not even a disturbed fan soooo, how could we expect you to give honest opinions. Seems like u disliked them straight out the gate
LOL Whaaaat??
Also I fucking hated the sound of silence as well 🤣🤣🤣
Yo their sound of silence cover makes me want to die. Much respect.
Why just why
Well you answered me already
I never get why people love this band. Its everything i hate about modern rock/nu metal.
Disturbed is da shiet! Uuuhhh Ah-ah-ah-ah!
