Science Of Disorder: Heart, blood and tears

04/06/12  ||  gk

Sweden’s Science of Disorder are on to their second album and are armed with a new vocalist who has a more hardcore approach to his vocals. The music feels like a mix of various popular trends and honestly gets a bit annoying. The band can’t decide if they want to play death metal, metalcore of the Earth Crisis sort or be a Meshuggah clone. The result is an album that basically succeeded in annoying the hell out of me. The songs for the most part are filled to bursting with staccato riffing, shouty vocals, plenty of breakdowns and occasionally it feels like a Meshuggah riff has just been copied and pasted on to a song or two. Meshuggah’s “Nothing” especially feels like a major influence on the band but honestly, the songs are too similar to each other with the constant staccato riffs sounding monotonous and boring by the time we get to the second song itself. It’s like this band doesn’t really know what they want to do and are still searching for their sound.

4/10: Pretty dull stuff overall.

After going thru that crap, you most likely wanna read something way more interesting. You do, admit it.
