Product Description

CD Description

Disturbed's debut found the band crawling through the mire of contemporary metal staples for a cohesive direction. The staccato primal scream that became the band's trademark helped break the single, "Down With The Sickness", in tandem with the song's Tool-meets-Pantera rhythmic complexities. From the rap metal grooves of "Voices" and "Stupify" (sic) to theneo-reggae vibe of "Violence Fetish", THE SICKNESS was a musical forecast of things to come for Disturbed. "Numb" foundthe band making a foray into more melodic and progressive territory, an approach they would further develop with 2002'sBELIEVE.

5.0 out of 5 stars Music that makes hairs stand on end., 9 Dec 2002
By Rowan Uren (Manchester U.K.) - See all my reviews
I've read other reviews on this album, and None of them give you any idea how superb this piece of music is. I've just recently seen Disturbed live and they opened with Voices- for that song alone this album should be snatched off the shelves. If you've ever been to a metal concert, and the whole place was pounding to the bass, then you know it's intense, if you haven't, see Disturbed. 'Beleive' Disturbed's latest album is tired, but 'The Sickness' is a classic piece of astoundingly good music. Buy it, Buy it now.

4.0 out of 5 stars Best alternative album I own, 12 Sep 2002
The album starts with the very good 'voices', a great start to a great album, the voals are unique and remain like this right the way through the album. The vocals are sang so quick in some songs they could be mistaken for rap but this is definitly metal, and at its best. Not too shouty, but the scratchy screams of draiman are great and uncopiable. The second song starts out different but goes back to the old style of Disturbed, if you like one song of theres you'll like this album as its all very similar but this does it no harm. 'Down with the sickness' the title song is good also I just love it, its great, the instruments, the vocals, shows the band at their very best. You can't help 'moshing' along. The best part of this album is the extra 'live' tracks, this band play absolutly great live although some of the songs have been made to sound more techno and this isn't good, although eventually they return to the original sound, i prefer the crisp metal sound that is unmistakably disturbed, they could sing nursery rhymes and you'd still know who they were. This is a must album for any metal fan, it doesn't sound anything like whats in the market and isn't too extreme like slipknot for example. Its a perfect balance of angst and calm with outstanding vocals and music, even if it is a little repetitive at times. I suppose I havn't said much bad about this album, but thats because it doesn't fault much. A must...it truly is an alternative album because its unique, not like linkin park, papa roach and the rest of the newbie music.

1.0 out of 5 stars Warning, Copy Protected CD, 26 Nov 2007
By J. Bartholomew (England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Good album. What Amazon does not say is that the disk is copy protected and will not playback on a computer CD-ROM or some car CD players. If you want to extract audio from disk to put on your new mp3 player, forget it!!

Rear cover of CD features the "Compact Disk" logo even though this CD clearly does not comply with Philips Red Book standards and should not be classed as a "Compact Disk".

If I wanted copy protection DRM, I would have downloaded my tracks from Itunes. Not impressed.

People should refuse to buy these "corrupted" none standard CDs and demand a refund if they have purchased them. Maybe then the record companies will learn that DRM is not the way forward.

4.0 out of 5 stars A promising debut
Disturbed are one of those bands that people often seem to put down for being 'just another nu-metal band.'

I personally disagree with this. Read more
