UMUR
"Futility" is the debut full-length studio album by US death/groove/alternative/industrial metal act Dååth. THe album was independently released in April 2004. Dååth formed in 2000 as Dirtnap, but changed their name to the current one in 2003. The band´s only release before "Futility" was the "Child Says / Filter" single from 2003, which was a promotional single featuring two tracks also featured on "Futility".

Stylistically the material on "Futility" is a mix of death metal, industrial metal, and groove metal. It´s definitely not old school death metal, so a more contemporary version is to be expected, but as written combined with some groove- and industrial metal elements. It´s honestly a bit of an odd bastard combination, which doesn´t work that well. Add to that a demo sound quality production job, and "Futility" is not exactly a debut album, which sees Dååth hit the ground running. This is clearly an early experimental release, and judging by the quality of the output it should probably never have reached beyond the demo stage.

It´s incoherrent and it leaves the listener with more questions than answers regarding who Dååth are and which direction they intent to take their music in the future. This album sticks in every direction, but the biggest flaw is that Dååth don´t write or perform any of of those directions that well. a 2 star (40%) rating isn´t all wrong.
