Subterranean Disposition: Subterranean disposition

13/11/12  ||  gk

This is the debut album from Subterranean Disposition, a one man band from Australia that supposedly plays some experimental death doom. Terry Vainoras, the man behind this project seems to have played in about half a dozen bands ranging from melodic death metal to symphonic black to doom and grindcore. I really don’t see a lot of experimenting happening here unless you count random ambient noises in the background and a short saxophone interlude but this is a pretty solid death doom album. The songs have some interesting dynamics and the interplay between soft and loud parts is nicely handled. The sound though has a lo-fi, recorded at home kind of feel to it and Terry really needs someone to tell him when to end a song. With 5 songs at over 50 minutes, this is a long album with really long songs that don’t always hold your attention. Still, not a bad debut by any means and there’s enough good stuff here to ensure that Subterranean Disposition will be on my radar.

7/10: With more hits than misses.
