DIO „Stand Up And Shout The Anthology”
Yet another Dio compilation from Rhino/Warner Brothers with the last compilation The Very Beast Of Dio (on the same label) only three years old. But as always, Dio anthologies are fairly similar.
DISGORGE „Consume the Forsaken”
Here in the UK, it is difficult enough to get hold of underground releases such as this let alone find reviews of them. There is a market for it, so why isn't there any promotion in the magazines? People are missing out on some superb exercises in brutality and sometimes I wonder whether I am the only one who listens to it.
DISGORGE „Necrholocaust”
Disgorge is a gore metal band from Mexico that have a good reputation in the underground of this subgenre. The music have the typical gore stuff that like so much to the followers of this style.
DISHARMONIC „Unholy Remains”
I think every band that comes from Volos, Greece is into brutal death metal or grindcore. Disharmonic follow this “rule” and present us a demo with 3 tracks and an intro in death and grind paths.
DISILLUSION „Three Neuron Kings”
Disillusion. For me an unknown band from Germany.
DISSECTION „Storm of the Light Bane”
What can i say about this album. Maybe the perfect mix between aggresion and melody! It is an excellent combination of death metal and black, but not the typical black death metal band of today.
DISSENTER „Apocalypse Of The Damned”
Dissenter come from Poland and they are into brutal death metal in the vein of Morbid Angel and generally American death metal bands. 45 minutes of interesting death metal with a production that could be better.
DISSOLVING OF PRODIGY „Time Ruins Also Beauty”
This is another band from the Czech republic that all I can say is if you like your riffs so thick that you couldn't pour them from a glass that was upside down then you will like this. This CD is very dark and doomy with a feel that the band are trying there hand at writing in the TYPE O NEGATIVE vain but much slower and heavier.
DISSONANT „Darken The Hour E.P.”
Mainly nu-metal for sure with some modern death metal influences. Pretty much sounding like Deftones, Nothingface and In Flames.
DOMAIN „…from Oblivion”
After a three-year suspension Domain regrouped, and recorded “From Oblivion” which was released on Apocalypse Productions in 2000. From Oblivion is a mix of many different styles of metal, which really makes it stand out in a sometimes-crowed metal scene.
