Info

Fort Worth in Texas is the home to Black Metal duo Disruption who have just unleashed a supremely enjoyable debut EP entitled simply ‘Opus 1’. What really makes this EP stand out is the vocals, which whilst they offer up powerful yet standard rasping evil sounding fare, leave the lyrics perfectly audible, and this is a clinching factor for me as the bands lyrics are seriously engaging. That isn’t all that Disruption have going for them though, as their simple guitar leads backed up by some very sturdy drum tones are incredibly fluent and catchy to listen to. Also, the intro to opening track ‘Necrosophic Fantasy’ is so bass laden it sounds like it was created using a cello. What I truly like the most though about Disruption is that they don’t try to reinvent the wheel, and instead focus on writing captivating Black Metal with a hint of Death Metal influence. So through intoxicating bouts of tremolo picking to ravaging melodic guitar leads, powerful vocals and pummelling blast beats, ‘Opus 1’ is simply out a crackling listening experience that will beg for repeated listens.
