Even if the
name gives reason to believe, DISARRAY doesn’t play
D-Beat. What a bummer ;) Therefore they quite know to persuade
with some other arguments. For whom does it not ring the bell
when music is combined with words like Southern Metal, snakes,
dust and Tennessee? It isn’t about to me to judge how many
Whiskey the three DISARRAY guys slammed during the recordings
to Edge Of My Demise, but what isn’t to dismiss
is the distinctive groove running through their veins and furthermore
the one or other latent Pantera or Pro-Pain touch. Enriched with
a lot of Rock and Stuck Mojo without their (for me doubtable)
hit melodies puts the musical picture in perspective. Not any
song ignites completely indeed, Breaking Point, Severed Ties
or Observance Of Human Error are fine and snappy tracks,
which know to satisfy with their “danceable” parts
and poke out of this album with their impulsive beat. Nice food
for neck muscles! It’s a pity that this level isn’t
standard on Edge Of My Demise, which invites to
nod one’s head. Following the Thrash colored opener Destroy
Me and ignoring the named tracks, a lot of smart songs invite
to nod one’s head without taking off in the end. Pantera
or Stuck Mojo is one until several numbers oversized. It isn’t
due to Gary Meskil’s job as a producer. Who sounds off in
Pro-Pain knows how a proper production has to be. And according
to this he transports his experiences in DISARRAY’s
fifth studio album by now. It’s as a matter of course that
Mr. Meskil improves Severed Ties with his voice. Counting
all together the result is an album that contains a lot of good
potentials that let everybody known these three Tennessee rockers
are in business since 1993. A well earned 7.
