    Disturbed Hard To Touch But Not Indestructible Yet

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Jun 8, 2008 | 0 out of 1 found this Indestructible review helpful

    Pros: The albums keeps the band's sound without copying itself from album to album. This album is proof positive of that.

    Cons: The lyrics in the included booklet are so small that one almost needs a magnifying glass to be able to follow them.

    Disturbed was one of the countless bands that suddenly emerged from the woodworks in the "music goldrush of 2000." It was also among the countless bands that was quickly dismissed by critics and audiences alike. Some people called the band ..."nu-metal." Others even tried to compare the band to the likes of so many other countless rap-rock bands for some odd reason. But now, four albums, eight years, and one lineup change later, Disturbed has shown that it has separated itself from the boys, and become the men. The band's new album, 'Indestructible' is what fans have come to expect for the most part, from Disturbed. Much of this album's sound can be linked to any of the band's previous three albums. But what sets it apart from its past three albums is in how it has managed to keep its signature sound without copying itself again. Disturbed has managed to keep a certain sound from album to album, but still managed to write original pieces on each release. This album is no different in that aspect. It is solid songwriting, musically speaking. One of the best musical aspects, aside from the still amazing vocal prowess of vocalist David Draiman, is the guitar solos that come out from time to time. That kind of thing has become increasingly rare in today's rock world. It seems increasingly as if guitars are just down-tuned crunching instruments, rather than true musical instruments. But this album proves that while Disturbed is a modern rock band, it can still stay true to the old style. The perfect example is the 80's throwback styled guitar solo in the album's lead single, "Inside The Fire." Who would not want to throw up on the horns on that one? Answer: No one. Lyrically, the album is slightly difficult to follow, with the exception of the opening barrage of the album's title track. If one can manage to follow the nearly microscopic lyrics included in the lyrics booklet, one finds out that it is a tribute to the men and women oversees. That would explain the air raid siren, which opens the song. Ironically, the siren in question is meant only for that song, but fits quite wel for the entire album. It warns audiences of the impending aural assault, which they are about to experience. Overall, 'Indestructible' is an impressive from one of the rare bands to survive the "music goldrush of 2000." Disturbed has proven in the eight years since that it is not indestructible (the lineup change), but it is a band that is tough to touch. And provided it continues to put out such impressive albums as it has done to this point, it will eventually become one of rock's elite in the years to come. Read more Less

Pro Reviews: Indestructible

  • All Music Guide

    Disturbed's fourth fulllength offering announces its arrival with an airraid siren. It's an appropriate gesture for the popular Chicagobased metal collective, whose rapid ascension from buzzedabout Ozzfest highlight to commercial hard rock juggernaut has been as divisive as it has been impressive. While Indestructible doesn't meddle with the melodic hardhitting Panterainspired formula that fueled its predecessors, the dreaded numetal tag that followed the band out of the turn of the century seems wholly eradicated. If anything, Disturbed owe more to early'90s Metallica and Brian Johnsonera AC/DC than they do Tool or Korn, as each staccato, techheavy riff is balanced out by some truly artful soloing and frontman David Draiman's mean and melodious pipes. Standout cuts like "Inside the Fire," "Deceiver, " "The Curse," and the skullcracking title track, even though they could have appeared on any of the group's first three records, still manage to fire on every cylinder. Like its closest c...ontemporary, Godsmack, this is a band that favors reliability over experimentation, and each piece of Indestructible, whether it's the pseudohorror/fantasy artwork, the dropD riffing, or the obligatory "shoutouts" in the liner notes to the purveyors of each member's gear endorsement deals, fits together like the world's most obvious puzzle. That said, there's a reason each of the group's previous albums bested the million mark, and with metal growing increasingly selfaware and divided between hardcore and hard rock, a new Disturbed record seems like a solid foundation on which to duke it out. - James Christopher Monger, All Music Guide Read more Less

Biography

Disturbed

Heavy metal band Disturbed came together through the matching of a band with a singer. Longtime friends Dan Donegan (guitar), Mike Wengren (drums), and Fuzz (bass) played together in Chicago for some time before hooking up with singer David Draiman around 1997. Draiman had grown up in a religious family against which he rebelled, being expelled from five boarding school... Read more
