The Austrian band
Disharmonic Orchestra formed as early as 1987 and released three innovative
death metal albums in the first half of the 90's before calling it quits in
1995. In the year 2000 the band reformed with three of the original members
and they have now finished the work on their new highly anticipated album
entitled "Ahead". The band was ahead of their time when they started out and
they developed a highly unique style of their own with a mix of grindcore and
death metal. Together with Pungent Stench they were one of the leading acts
from the German speaking countries and now that both bands are alive and well
again fans of innovative extreme metal should be very happy. "Ahead" is
basically a very groovy death metal album with plenty of weird rhythms, heavy
razor-sharp riffs and a fair dose of grindcore and nu-metal vocals.
Unfortunately the songs of this album are way too similar to each other and
there are no song that sticks out that much from the rest except for the
wonderful "The Love I Hate". It is still a very good, solid album and old
fans of the band should not be disappointed because they are still as weird
and twisted as ever before. This is something for all of you who want
something out of the
ordinary.
