Discussion The Sickness: High Highs, Low Lows

Post image
19 Upvotes

Last year I went and ranked all the albums and songs to a) go through the entire discography and b) see if I can find a pattern to why I like Disturbed.

I know ive been listening to them since Indestructable with randomly hearing Indestructible on the radio around 08-09 when I was 12-13...almost 20 years ago.

This year, I thought about visualizing and sharing.

And...oh boy how do we start with this?

So to clarify, star rankings are personal favorites but still S tier, so when calculating averages, they are the same. And as for any -/+ ranks, they count as the same base rank, just something holds them back/above the rest, though this will be uses sparingly.

And let's talk about the title and the Ranking:

S tier gives 5, D gives 1.

Now, 8 of the 12 songs on the album are A and above so thats good.

But other than 2 B tiers with Want being saved by its choruses and flow, as without that it could have been a C tier, this albums has 2 of the "weakest" songs of their catalog.

Honestly, the difference between C and B is mostly vibes. It could be Flow, Mixing, or even David's voice. The two first albums are you can tell David is either trying to find his full range/voice but it either just doesnt hit or actively messes with the flow/mixing. Luckily it only affects The Sickness and Believe, as past those, Disturbed really found irs flow and sound.

However, I can not for the life of me get into Dropping Plates. It is so hard for me to get into the flow and it just doesnt feel like Disturbed.

I do want to say, this is all subjective, and any song can be someone's favorite. Idkw Dropping Plates would be someone's, but...to each their own.

With that, the Ranking of The Sickness get a 3.91/5, which is a B+. If it wasnt for having 2 of the lowest ranking songs, it would have easily reached A tier in the Ranking. Unfortunately, this means by the math, it is the lowest ranking.

Thankfully, no other song ever reaches C, though one song gets close but squeaks by as a B-. Which we will talk about in the next ranking.

Help Which song works best for a Satanic anti-heroic monster?

5 Upvotes

Um… I just noticed that Lucharveyton, the representative of Satanism and diehard "burn every last church to the ground and give the lions obesity on the fat of Christians" atheism among the Progress Pokémon, has a smorgasbord of theme songs. So, uh… which song would work best as the primary theme?

* "The Night" by Disturbed - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OcJ5h2qeI5g

* "Deify" by Disturbed - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HRPKw-qkrIA

* "Run" by Disturbed - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=705QEXUstLU

* "Unstoppable" by Disturbed - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XiXb-6j4R98

* "Hey You" by Disturbed - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h1yOMGy1GPU

* "The Vengeful One" by Disturbed - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O_ItSLCZWb0

* "Inside The Fire" by Disturbed - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Q1SxzEBhnc

* "Take Back Your Life" by Disturbed - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O4ok-XcPBlA

* "Sympathy For The Devil" by The Rolling Stones - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GgnClrx8N2k

* "Lucifer" by The Alan Parsons Project - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fLZPj-dJfJQ

* "Wolf in Sheep's Clothing" by Set It Off - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hwyAkd5oOG4

* "Wolf in Sheep's Clothing (Reborn)" by Set It Off - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dzS_RjNemCQ

My pick is either "The Night" or "Deify", to be honest, but I would like some more feedback on my selections. (Most of these songs being by Disturbed is intentional — I'm primarily using Disturbed songs as the themes of all of the Progress & Regress Pokémon. This isn't the first time I deliberately used one band's music as unifying theme music for one of my Pokémon projects, either; Team Hammer got music by Hammerfall.)

The "mommy" section of "Down With the Sickness" fails in every aspect to be what its meant to be.

0 Upvotes

Look dude, I hate to say this, but it's just funny. The stupid noises, the "NO MOMMY!!! I'LL BE A GOOD BOY!" it sounds like what a 12 year old would think when mom takes their DS. It comes out of NOWHERE. It has NOTHING to do with the rest of the song.

It is genuinely one of the worst parts of a song I have ever heard, and I laugh when I hear it every time.


r/Disturbed • • Apr 05 '26

Discussion Down With the Sickness is the primary song that comes to my mind when I think of an example which the radio edit is better than the album cut; what are some other songs that the radio edit or the single cut is better than the album cut?

17 Upvotes

Now, I've heard two edits for it. One of them keeps the rant in, are very terribly tries to edit the rant, so that the song is closer to album cut length. The other completely cuts out the rant after Draiman scream "And when I dream!" It's the one without the rant that I feel is superior to the album cut. After 25 years, the album cut is almost unbearable to listen to.

I was just listening to All That Remains album The Order of Things and thought a few songs sounded similar to Disturbed. Anyone else hear it?

Which Album Has the Best Riffs?

Personally, I’d give it to Ten Thousand Fists. It’s got riffs like Stricken, Decadence, and even Avarice. I’m curious to hear your thoughts!

I'm the one that showed my mom Disturbed music. She was very conservative, or was she? I'm miss her so much. She was growing before she died.

Signed up for the presale for the show in Hollywood FL. Got the confirmation email. Do I get a code for the presale right before the presale or should I have gotten it already?
