DISTURBED Evolution Album Review | Overkill Reviews

[@oisinmcphillips2090]

Blayne reviewing a Disturbed album is something I never knew I needed

[@davidking9766]

"...then why are there 3 more?" Lmfao

[@fupamastah9331]

You can hear someone from the crew laughing behind the scenes when he says that

[@kristiankrastanov5995]

Nice contrast between the reviewers. The review was interesting to watch

[@journalofdreams]

"I will not be getting up." Blaine at his finest.

[@connorscott457]

I love Dylan cracking up every single time Blayne makes a joke

[@brennanchaudhry8925]

Respect to Dylan for standing by his opinion even in the face of Blayne’s admittedly accurate criticisms and general community feeling towards Disturbed. Good review

[@SetzarothTV]

"It sounds like Disturbed is stumbling around in a room full of acoustic guitars looking for another sound of silence" Never has an analogy been so spot on.

[@Metalvox_Anthony]

Blayne and Dylan are awesome. I love these tag team reviews. Keep up the good work guys!

[@ThatOneGuy7550]

No mention of the new Horrendous album?! C'mon guys! It's bloody amazing. (Also, I like the guy, Dylan. I think he's doing a great job on the channel.)

[@divineauspex9604]

They'll probably have a year-end list for albums they missed and I hope Idol makes the cut, because it's probably my AOTY, if not at least in the top 5.

[@aarontanner9332]

Nah it wasn't that good, some would say it was Horrendous

[@okbuddy2924]

It was mediocre IMO. Proggy. The new prog guy should review it. Not as good as their old stuff.

[@Steven34072]

The album got a shout out mention in one of the more recent review videos. I think Brad was the featured reviewer

[@brewtalityk]

new Horrendous is AOTY for many. It is indeed very good

[@patfix]

I saw Disturbed in the title and Blayne in the thumbnail...then I knew this was gonna be fun!

[@Nappa9000]

I didn't even know they were working on a new album...what a pleasant(?) surprise. BUT, Blayne and Dylan in the same video is what I've been waiting for.

[@leecherian3980]

Dylan, Thanks allot for your suggestion on Nothing More , great band and thanks to you i'm going to see them when they come to town.

[@karpizzlefromjhofffilms682]

Should have reviewed Ritual.

[@tezz434]

Agree, are we actually going to ignore that album?

[@savagevidz149]

REVIEW RITUAL

[@stupifried4207]

Ritual is badass

[@MetalMaclovius]

Agree

[@kristofbe1]

Although I can't stand Disturbed, I salute Banger TV for not being musical elitists and truly reviewing all styles of heavy music. Well done.

[@tpawsplayground]

I love this album so far. It's my mainstream guilty pleasure and they're still one of my favorite bands. Then I'll go back to death metal and other stuff you guys actually like. Oh, and symphonic metal.

[@HoldFastFilms]

I remember when their first record came out and some dude gave me the CD (probably from Napster or Kazaa ... ) and he was raving about it like he just heard Raining Blood for the first time. I put it in my stereo and I have hated them since. Never spoke to that guy again. Thanks for Castle recommendation Blayne! That shit is dope!

[@ashesofexistance]

Raining blood is shit.. you'd stop talking to someone over 1 band.. fucking stupid...

[@cyclone927]

HOLD FAST I actually was impressed with their fist album and the whole Nu Metal movement because I was 13 AND that was my intro to metal....and then I discover 80s trash metal and never went back lol

[@Slaytounge]

Fear is a good song from that album.

[@disturbedone8731]

Well... You're stupid.

[@ozman1760]

Haha stupid, Disturbed got so big because their first album was actually brilliant. It’s the gradual decline leading up to this hot garbage that have pushed metal fans away.

[@markkelly1977]

@BangerTV this is a winning combo for tag team reviews. Let’s see more of this

[@Clueless_Morgan]

Disturbed belongs in the lost episode of Metal Evolution: Soccer Mom Metal.

[@cyclone927]

Misanthropic IX They make what I like to call “WWE PPV Music” lol!!!!

[@jakesimmonds5043]

more like high school mallcore poser rock.

[@jakesimmonds5043]

using the term "metal" very lightly there

[@GotoMaki4Micah]

the band has stated several times over the years that they are a rock or hard rock band, not metal.

[@weregretohio7728]

Even my mom thinks this album sucks.

[@PieroChighi]

This is the best tag team combination you guys have ever done. Great job! Keep it up Dylan you already climbed to the top of the best reviewers on this channel

[@paulturner2192]

I like how the tag team hosts represent different generations, while also having sub-genre biases. Makes for more interesting reviews.

[@LordDestrus]

You guys are fucking amazing. Im a big Disturbed fan, but I think i find my rating of this album falling somewhere between both of you. Love you guys. Blayne, keep on riling people up. That shit is hilarious. You never let me down.

[@stevehartwig5914]

Great review, as always! I couldn't agree more on Blane's skull rating. Also big thank you for mentioning Castle, never heard that name before but dude they are crazy good!

[@Chatman666]

Dylan trying not to laugh is the funniest thing abt this video. Great review, boys. Kudos.

[@brandondeas1798]

Blayne's reviews on bands he hates are the best. Can't decide which was funnier, this or his cradle of filth review

[@theperfectimperfect]

Feel sorry for 'Requiem for a dream' Jared Leto having to argue on the affirmative for Disturbed. that was tough. Blayne killed as always

[@karpizzlefromjhofffilms682]

Insect Politics “Reqiun for a Dream” J Leto lmaoooo... I can’t unsee that now! Thanks mate.

[@CatsCoffeeGuitars]

Blayne is everyone's spirit animal.

[@SutekhTheDestroyer]

Friday and I get home from work super-early; still plenty of beer left in the fridge; load KZbin and there's a new Banger review. I don't even mind that it's Disturbed, today was a good day.

[@BangerTV]

TGIF!

[@ralphliggins3808]

I feel as though the band was up front before the album came out saying it was going to be a more acoustic album then their normal path. Of course the album was only okay, but i feel that people still weren't expecting what we got... me being one of them. Hoping to see what we will see from them down the road

[@Bemwidood]

I don’t know if it’s because we’re lockhorns deprived but i enjoyed the contrasting views on this album that provided for an interesting dialogue (locking horns XD). I consider myself to be similar to Dylan, i like disturbed and i’ve gotten into metal through gateway bands, but from the excerpts and summaries I’m not impressed with Disturbed’s latest effort so I agree with Blayne’s criticisms. Even though I haven’t listened to the album i’m wondering if Blayne’s rating was too harsh. I have a hard time believing that this album was worst than Machine head’s latest and Suicide Silence’s albums. In summary, BRING LOCKHORNS BACK! Skype people in and do lockhorns global!

[@JaconSamsta]

I listened to it briefly and well, it's hard to judge. There is no cohesion in the album, as was mentioned. It's one mediocre song after another which could all carry a 1 1/2 too 2 1/2 star rating on their own, but that, in my eyes (and I think Blayne would agree with me here) simply doesn't equate a good (or not terrible in this case) album. Imo, even if the music is utter crap, an Album can easily carry a 2 star rating just on the musical progression and contrast within the Album. Sure, it's a harsh rating, but not unjustified.

[@danielexplosion]

After having to hear new Disturbed, I IMMEDIATELY had to put on The Greatest Hit Of Disturbed. It was like therapy, and I feel better about myself for doing it.

[@lkisor80]

Lol that parody is great... I sometimes have a hard time listening to Disturbed because the parady is so true, most songs follow similar structure.

[@lappensal]

Instantly clicked when i saw Blayne in the thumbnail after i read it was disturbed he was reviewing. Needed a real good laugh and he never dissapoints.

[@JeezyFrankie]

Was hoping for a Soulfly review

[@luisornelas2318]

"Disturbed for me was kind of that band where it sounded like a dude was banging a duck" -Blayne "God" Smith

[@SuperMarioStar10]

Pretty good review. I was fairly disappointed with this new Disturbed album. I honestly hope Disturbed decides to tour and play 'The Sickness' album from start to finish in 2020 for the 20th anniversary. I'd rather see that than see them play new stuff.

[@josearriaga1227]

I never understood the whole gateway band thing. I jumped right into the pool : Megadeth, Meshuggah, Fear Factory, Morbid Angel, Pantera, Marduk, 1349, Behemoth, Machinehead, Napalm Death, Kataklysm, Sepultura, Exodus, Arch Enemy, Hate Eternal, ETC. I listened to their discographies completely out of order also. I was just enjoying all types of metal. I never vibed with Disturbed or Numetal overall. It holds nostalgia value but thats it.

[@roelofzinn8227]

Blayne is THE MAN! I watch Banger TV's stuff whether it feautures Blayne in the episode or not, but damn it, Blayne just gets me grinning. I'd GLADLY buy him a few beers if I ever bump into him somewhere.

[@bateman2112]

If they had a comeback album could we get a go away album?

[@thursaiz]

Love this video, and despite my overwhelming agreement with Blayne, Dylan made some great points. I'm still laughing, so I'll watch it again!

[@thewalkingdunning-krugeref9664]

That new Outre Tombe record is so fuckin' gnarly. Thank you.

[@Shadownian]

New album....suuucckkkksss!!! Its not even disturbed...its like a David Draiman ego project. They get into the recording studio and make "Are you Ready" which is a great song. Then David says he wants to make a softer song...ok. Then they make another song. And next thing you know 6 months later and the album is done and David is sitting alone in the recording studio like..."Hey guys listen to this" and hes all alone. The band had left months ago. The majority of the album sounds nothing like Disturbed or even a rock band. Hell my favorite song is the Sam de Jong remix...lol

[@abhisheknambiar3655]

Good to see dylan in the video ...As the banger team wasnt actually having a prog person ....it was more death , doom , heavy and thrash and power...Now the team looks super complete.....Hail banger tv

[@Ronny1031]

I never thought I'd see Blayne review an album he'd want to review even less than Machine Head. But, here we are. Now, let's see him review the new Korn whenever it comes out

[@seancompton5393]

Love this channel i bought thou because of your review blayn keep up the good work guys

[@pong86r]

Like Blayne, born in mid 80's found friends that liked Sepultura and Slayer in the mid-90's by the time Disturbed and Mudvayne came out it was like baby metal.... well not "Baby Metal", but you know

[@carlgiles6196]

I've been a fan from the start i liked this album alot glad i bought it

[@image30p]

Ah... man. Priceless.

[@petebrown3715]

Love seeing my name at the end!

[@michaelh7453]

Just subscibed to the channel, its great to see people actually telling things as it is and not just panderring to the corperate big-wigs. Thanks for such an honest review of a album that i very nearly wasted my hard earned money on.

[@h1te]

When is Lock Horns coming back? Did it get banned because of Cannibal Cam`s shorts?

[@embracerodusk2537]

I'm glad my metal gateway was Master of Puppets and South of Heaven and not "Owwww ah ah ah ah".

[@Undaglibenglaubengloben]

The Great Southern Trendkill here - not too bad either :)

[@marikoth]

One of bangers best reviews, great job!

[@markcerne1313]

Ayyy nothing more, nice shout out

[@butchvito]

Why didn't you tell me Soulfly just released their new album? Also, did you guys review the new High On Fire? Disturbed is a little too extreme for my liking...

[@williambaldwin9346]

First was introduced to Disturbed in person. About 10 feet, or maybe even less from them when they were on stage at Ozzfest 2000.

[@personavisceration371]

My wife loves Grey's and pop/dance music and she rolled her eyes at that clip. Thought they should know.

[@Underjoggle]

“We wrote every song to be a hit” See, this is what happens when you try too hard.

[@buggydust]

it's very cute how dylan laughed at blayne's nonsense, id love to see yall do more side by side reviews! also cool to see polyphia get a shoutout! new levels new devils is excellent

[@FurFoxSakeFML]

Blane dude, you gona review the upcoming PESTE NOIRE to even out the ideological scale after that Neck Beard Death-camp caper you pulled ?!

[@285mrsmith]

Necrovortex is one of the funnest albums of the year. Great shout out.

[@echxes2252]

Blayne and Dylan are a fantastic duo! Great review!

[@drop-d-extreme7167]

100% agree! Great review guys. 👍🏻

[@johnbraucher1499]

You guys should totally put YOUR music out there. This album is amazing if you actually listen to it. Vocals especially are awesome. Ininvited guest is badass!!

[@TheEleventhLetter]

Did anyone anyone related the strange similarities with the Are you Ready of Korn blind's song, with the Disturbed one?

[@JV-rx3ov]

Jesus Christ, Blayne...I thought we were friends. Guess this review answers that. Damn. Nobody should be exposed to this record.

[@Soydrinker999]

"hey guys the sound of silence cover was really popular so lets make an album full of songs like it" - Disturbed 2018

[@effel651997]

So when the new tool album comes out wil 3-4 of you guys tag team review it?

[@damianp564]

"There's always a new basement." I cringed during every song clip but the review was fun. Dylan made for a good unwitting straight man to Blayne's jokes. As for Disturbed being a gateway band for some....well, if it make you happy but you don't have to sing about the first girl to give you a tug for the rest of your life.

[@virginiahamamelis3804]

Katatonia is excellent gateway metal. If you start with their most recent albums and go backwards you'll eventually get to Opeth.

[@chrono_s9699]

YEAAAAAAA NOTHING MORE got a shout out from BANGER! The self titled album is a damn masterpiece ❤

[@afout07]

How can you list Katatonia and disturbed in the same sentence? They're nothing alike

[@karpizzlefromjhofffilms682]

Alex Fout Yeah, what the actual ____? Disturbed are nu metal, Katatonia are doom metal and they’re actually worth your time.

[@DraugrGrog]

Katatonia is a good gateway band. No harsh vocals and generally easy to digest, but still fucking fantastic. I always use them as a recommendation to get someone in to harder music or just better hard rock. They are good for showing butt rock fans the light...

[@claytonshirey]

@@DraugrGrog no harsh vocals? Um dude have you listened to their first two albums?

[@DraugrGrog]

Of course. Have you listened to everything else in their discography? Ha. You get what I'm saying.

[@elvisman2000]

Katatonia is a gateway band? Seriously? Lol.

[@bagofparts]

Doesn't the track they played first sound a little bit like a american version of New Noise by Refused?

[@zaqston36]

Great review for an album that honestly Banger should not be reviewing. There is a line of which somethings should be considered too mainstream for the channel.

[@BangerTV]

Glad you liked the review. We know some viewers share your views but we consider it part of our job here to cover these records. Metal music is not just underground stuff.

[@Jacen436987]

honestly, you guys should ignore the underground stuff just because it'll piss off the hipsters.

[@joshlauze1944]

I'd love to see more reviews of popular metal bands more often, rather than average death/black metal band #52 all the time. Gotta balance it out a little more often.

[@claytonshirey]

@@joshlauze1944 they dont even review that many death metal or black metal bands

[@thewalkingdunning-krugeref9664]

They do it because it's good for the "comedy" aspect of the channel.

[@rockmovieswithtyler1989]

Please more Dylan losing his shit to things Blayne says! Absoluteley Histerical! Great Review!

[@animecasio8665]

Do disease by beartooth It came out a little while ago but I really want to see your opinion on it

[@Roonagu]

Say what you want.. but Draiman was great in Californication.

[@juanblanco1371]

Evan Handler and Draiman HAVE to be the same dude.

[@sakisbarbalexis8772]

I can't stop listening to the new Outre-Tombe album. Shout out to the shout out

[@psycold]

I finally figured out Blayne's review style, it consists of constantly seeming like you need to take a dump.

[@chuckelator]

I personally would have added Sentenced - The Cold White Light as a record to someone who is wanting to break through the gateway. Radio friendly alterna-metal with dark themes, as you all probably know already. Showed it to a buddy who's favorite band is A7x, and he really dug it, if that says anything.

[@eddiesidorov8635]

The great disturbed era ended with asylum. Anything after that did nothing for me. And it breaks my heart to say that because I used to really love them.

[@Kelis98]

Disturbed’s songs have variation. Also don’t stop at ten thousand fists, asylum, indestructible, and the lost children are also great.

[@MRmagic11111]

The problem I have with Disturbed's cover is that for one it is a legendary song; It feels dark and has so many dimensions to it and it is played quite simply through the genres of old school folk music. What makes this work is that it is called the sound of "Scilence" not the sound of an epic orchestra... Disturbed.

[@EricAxel36]

System of a Down was my gateway band. That acoustic song in this video was hilarious, can't believe that's supposed to be a serious song

[@theartingskorpio1524]

I love this album, also you gotta listen to those lyrics a bit closely, No More does NOT talk about society going to shit but about war and how the government funds it and the song basically calls for an action to stop that, hence the "No more defending the lies Behind the never-ending war, It's time to make them realize, We will no longer be their whore" part of the song, the "whore" would be a reference to basically us whose money is used for funding war. Most if not all of the songs in this album have deep meanings about what currently goes on in the world and also what many people are going through in their lives.

[@michaelh7453]

Dude, Born in 86, thats the same year that i started going to see bands play live. You make me feel OLD LOL

[@EddieTHead-so1uw]

Can you guys review new Revocation album already!?

[@aic8001]

I'd compare Evolution to ReLoad more than the Black album

[@aprild9577]

Agreed

[@theopenworldofgaming5005]

Wow for the first time in a long time I am agreeing with blayne. Like this was a black album in the way it was so mainstream it seemed uninteresting because no song stood out as it should've in the disturbed tone. Would recommend checking the album though. Mediocre at best but could've been a lot better if they didn't make a follow up album to just the song "sound of silence"

[@MrRoundthetwist]

Disturbed + Grays Anatomy? Jesus what’s next.. Metallica and Lady Gaga? 😝

[@Tri1umph]

Cradle of Filth and Taylor Swift

[@kristofferrosvall8709]

At least Gaga is better than Disturbed.

[@sethhansen4454]

Guys, the joke. Is that Metallica actually performed with lady gaga

[@Strandinator243]

uff

[@xanderjcliffe-musicreviews7740]

8:35 Does anyone have a source for this?

[@carlosnieto_]

Do you have any album With 5 skulls?

[@maxpalmer3212]

My gateway heavy metal bands Disturbed Godsmack Metallica

[@williambaldwin9346]

So I bought this because it was a new Disturbed CD. Didn't hear anything on the disk before except of course Sound of Silence. Was very weird, and a bit confusing. I played it at work, and a friend of mine and I were just..confused. Not a bad album, but just weird.

[@mghafoori]

Disturbed is to Metal what The Black Eyed Peas is to Metal

[@MrGarccia]

The "no more" song, sounded like a copy of "just died on your arms tonight" , just I notice that?

[@buckygloober9225]

Everyone ive ever known whos into underground music uses Disturbed as a baseline for all jokes about metal & as an example of what style of metal not to play.

[@claytonshirey]

Strong agree

[@Shadowx011]

Smart musicians think alike. :)

[@ongkyansharullah9728]

Best tag team, so far

[@AILDdrums]

Review some Shining albums! The Swedish band, their 5th ablum Halmstad is one of my favorites.

[@splatterbrained]

Nice Brewtal Beerfest shirt! Welcome to Pittsburgh!

[@wildeyed76]

Agreed, the album is far from being up to par. I don't think I'm as disappointed as I was with Godsmack, as they've kept their sound just unplugged it and mellowed it down a bit. So far 2018 is full of disappointment over approving of new albums for me.

[@wildeyed76]

Shinedown is dead to me, they went commercial a loooong time ago. Do they even have a drummer anymore or just a beat box at this point? I agree on Breaking Benjamin and Bad Wolves, Sevendust did not disappoint at all with their latest.

[@ironimpactdojo]

Would love to see Draiman just go full power metal or just anything new and different from Disturbed. I hoped he was going off in a new direction w/Device, alas...the power of the Disturbed brand. Good weightlifting music, though (minus the ballads...).
