Gone Gonzo  Posts: 1296 Joined: 3 Sep 2008   | Bit crap. But not really my scene so I can't really judge. |
Gone Gonzo Posts: 3923 Joined: 15 Aug 2008 | I can understand why some people don't like them... |
Gone Gonzo  Posts: 4269 Joined: 13 Aug 2008     | I don't like them. The singer (and his voice) just pisses me off. There you go, now that's 7 posts, you're well on your way to 100 |

Really? that was one of the main reasons I was drawn to the band, they have a very distinct Singer. |
Gone Gonzo  Posts: 2892 Joined: 6 Mar 2008   | Their music is ok, but they're very corporate. They have a fan club and shit, and they went and played for the soldiers in Iraq - which is fine, but reading an article about it, I just got the feeling that it was just for the positive PR. I like some of their music pretty well, I just don't really like them... |

Yes, and I hate his voice |
Gone Gonzo Posts: 3923 Joined: 15 Aug 2008 |
They weren't always very corporate, but if the music is good and the band is devoted, then why get mad if they are corporate? (hopefully they wont end up like koRn....*shudder*) |
Gone Gonzo  Posts: 1063 Joined: 27 Aug 2008    | I loved the sickness and Believe. A great band. For some reason I could never really get into much of their third album, or later stuff. |

I wouldn't call him a singer tbh... |

Believe was my favorite CD of their's, Indestructible was good, mostly the songs Criminal and Facade. |

He can sing, but he mostly just growls inhumanly... Edit: wtf happened to my quote? |
Gone Gonzo Posts: 4269 Joined: 13 Aug 2008 |
I have yet to hear him do the former. |
Gone Gonzo Posts: 3923 Joined: 15 Aug 2008 |
What songs have you heard? |
Gone Gonzo  Posts: 1871 Joined: 11 Jun 2008    | I think that Disturbed are johnny come latelies to a scene that was dead before they even made a song. Anything ever squatted out by the "new metal" scene was already done better by either hardcore, industrial, or black metal music before it. |

Believe was a good album though most the songs on Indestructible sound almost the same. They could have mixed it up a bit, only Inside the Fire is completely different to the others. |

I have no idea what they were called, the ones that sounded like a cat being tied to a barbed wire fence and stretched until it's guts came flying out. Edit: Oh wait, sorry that doesn't really help narrow the search down at all does it? They all sound like that |
Gone Gonzo Posts: 3923 Joined: 15 Aug 2008 |
They didn't really experiment much with indestructable, it was really easy to get into, but now, a couple months late, I find myself listening to believe more....my favorite song on idestructible is either criminal or deciever. |
Gone Gonzo Posts: 3923 Joined: 15 Aug 2008 |
ouch......you are the first one to actually give a point for not liking them...you have to listen to the songs that aren't played on the radio to find the good ones where he sings, as much of their music on the radio is just crappy... |
Gone Gonzo Posts: 4269 Joined: 13 Aug 2008 | My brother has all the albums. I hate it all. |

Ok....you win, you hate disturbed. |

If you cared about good singing, why would you dig through Disturbed's b-sides just to find servicable melodies? If I want singing I'm sticking in Otis Redding.. and if I want cookie monster growls i'm popping in MonsterX or Brujeria. |

the sad part is most of them credit Mike Patton and faith no more as their main influence. it's something that makes Mike ashamed to have ever been in fnm i was trying to find a quote from Dave "Oderus" Brockie where he calls them a bunch of irrelevant losers that need to grow up |

Mostly the drums...... |

haha That's harsh. There a hillarious clip on YouTube where Mike Patton is doing an interview and Wolfmother comes on in the background, he stops the interview and asks, "Wait, are you listening to this shit? What time period are we in? Holy shit." Helmet + Mike Patton = Nu Metal |
Gone Gonzo Posts: 3923 Joined: 15 Aug 2008 | I guess its a love or hate band from what I hear... |

That's what she said. Couldn't help it. Anyway: Disturbed is about as Metal as Godsmack is. That meaning, this Nu Metal, is BS. It's the sub-genre made when some dick cheese classified Puddle of Mudd as Hard Rock. User was banned for: The hypocrisy is KILLING me.. (Permanent) |

Phil Collins pisses me off..... I like their version better...O.o |

I have been reading on some music related threads, a general dislike for the band Disturbed.
Personaly they are one of my favorite bands, but I was wondering what the rest of the escapist thinks.
