I’m not entirely sure what the “story” is here. ‘Disturbed’ is a self-titled, or non-titled, compilation by the heavy metal band of the same name. Also commonly known as ‘A Decade of Disturbed’, is it a promo copy of an unreleased greatest hits? A sampler? An EP? It’s a bit of a random release, with only seven songs and clocking in at barely 30 minutes, it strikes me as some kind of budget compilation for people who weren’t previously fans of the band. But then, it’s also censored, so maybe it was something originally sent out to radio stations?

Does anyone know?

Anyway, with that aside, it IS Disturbed, and the seven songs on offer, despite being censored, are still absolute bangers. ‘Prayer’, ‘Stricken’, ‘Ten Thousand Fists’, ‘Inside the Fire’, ‘Indestructible’ and ‘Down With the Sickness’ are all metal classics, and more than worthy enough to make this a decent release.

But ultimately, the censorship and short duration, especially in a day and age of streaming, make this completely obsolete. Meaning that despite the quality of the material, I can’t justify giving it any more than three stars. Definitely one best left to the collectors.
