First Time Hearing "DOWN WITH THE SICKNESS" by Disturbed

Ойындар

I told my friends/co-workers that "I Write Sins, Not Tragedies" by Panic At the Disco is one of the best white boy songs I've ever heard. Now they're sending me song suggestions and I'm doing live reactions here.

    I think the "softer" voiced parts of the song are very important, they really fit the message of someone who isn't violent or hateful by nature, but they have been driven to that by someone else. The juxtaposition in the way his voice shifts seems important to me.

    Never really had any abuse done upon me and my siblings other that the occasional switch (born in the south), but I have see it quite often. When I was in junior year my younger sister had a friend whose mother and father were both addicts. Dad did end up getting charged with possession but not the abuse but the mother was still heavily addicted couldn’t tell you how many times we’d get phone calls at 3am to come pick her up because her mom was shooting up and she didn’t want to report it and lose her mom. All came to a head one night when she called saying her mom was oding and didn’t know what to do. Long story short that was almost 8 years ago mom went to rehab and has be clean for 6 yrs now and the girl in med school gunning to be a doctor

    This song through its lyrics shows a transformation from being inhibited and calm, just taking abuse from family and society, until he inevitably explodes.. Letting out his "demon" in a violent explosion.. The part about the mother was, unfortunately, relatable for me.. I had a very abusive alcoholic mother.. From verbal and mental abuse to physical abuse.. And songs like this helped me to express that anger and hatred from years of abuse..

    Yeah especially in metal singer tend to vent out their trauma through songs. This so is about child abuse from an abusive mother. The last bit of the song is the kids finally standing up to the mother and airing out his trauma. Jonathan Davis from another band you’ve listened, korn, to does this a lot as well. He was abused for years as a kid by a family friend and his parent never believed him. The song Daddy from korn still gives me chills and is hard af 2 get through.

    I love this song because it's a bait for people who mindlessly listen to music. The way so many songs are consumed for the vibes with no understanding of the message. Rage for example or 99 Red Balloons. - This song baits you with the catchy Down with the sickness part. PART of the message is that from the outside it looks enticing, you wanna bop to it. But that segment shows that it's about abuse. That the sickness ISN'T something to glorify or admire. It's sickness. And they do it in a way that you cannot ignore. well until the radio edits the ART out of the music for commercial soulless consumerism. If you listen to this song with the Radio edit, I Judge you.

Super catchy dance tune, very obviously fucked up story if you even glance at the lyrics. Which was the point, according to the band, it's a commentary on how quickly Americans get over school shootings.

Most people i know listen to the censored version which cuts the vocals in that section entirely, leaving you with a kind of mid chord progression, but my dad and i always listened to this version.

    Honestly, listening to Disturbed NOW is so much better. David Draiman's voice has matured soooo damn well and has basically lost that "soft/weak" part you mentioned. Even when he's singing nice and clean like that, it still has a ton of power and edge to it nowadays compared to how it did back then. Don't completely give up on this song. Look for a few live performances in recent years that have good audio and you'll enjoy it a LOT more, trust me. All of that being said, this is by far my LEAST favorite "popular" song by Disturbed. Their last 2-3 Albums have been full of bangers.

    It's funny you mention ignoring the weird part. I had heard this song on the radio maybe 100 times before ever hearing that part cuz the radio version skips it. Honestly I bet there's some people that voted this song on the poll and watched this video thinking "wth his this part?" Lol

    I'm really glad you got the uncut version for your reaction- a lot of folks listen to the radio release version which has the entire Mommy bit cut out, without realising it's edited. Makes the reaction WAY less interesting when that's missing. Also, speaking of the Mommy part, 'Mommy' is a metaphor for society; apparently he actually has a great relationship with his mom! I've got to wonder how she felt when she first heard this somg though...

    Bro, this was honestly one of the highlights of having my real af white homies throughout school who'd throw music like you're only seeing now my way at the time. Rollin round town in the car and they show you a song they know you;ll love (like half these things you're hearing now...) I cant even tell you how hard it hit then in the moment. Like listening to Linkin Park and all this when they were taking off. Atleast you're doing this deep dive now and getting some of the experience. But damn if it isn't/wasn't better at a live show or ridin in a car with ya boys.

    To be honest this is one of those songs I try and switch off before he finishes his first "ooh aah aah aah" bit, and I've also never heard the intro so you can imagine my average listen time. I had no idea about that section of the song, I only know this as the soundtrack to the plague of zombie films that all hit at the same time back in the day. I see people saying it's against child abuse, and yes, that's a good thing to be against. But I don't think I've ever seen it handled this badly? Plenty of other bands and solo musicians have done it better, I think even Exodus' take, which is hardly a showcase of lyricism and has all the subtlety you'd expect of a thrash metal band, did a better job some 20 years earlier.

    Yes, it's a metaphor. "Mom" is mother society, beating down on individualism. Lots of people relate to it based on the literalness of having experienced physical abuse, but it can be seen from the broader societal expectations of conformity to a "norm."

    I still remember when this song came out and they played it on the radio non-stop. They removed the part where he goes crazy on his mom for the radio and because of that, I had a very similar reaction to you the first time I heard the actual album version. There I was jamming along to a song I thought I knew, when *that* suddenly happens. Still feel the song is better without that part. That being said it's not even that good of a song. Maybe I'm just sick of it. It was their big breakthrough hit, but for me, I don't even know if it would make my top 10 Disturbed songs.

    A few suggestions, try either: Change (In The House of Flies) by Deftones The Red by Chevelle, or Hey Man, Nice Shot by Filter Deftones have a really unique sound. Chevelle is like a less experimental and more aggressive version of Tool. The Filter song has a great build with a fun heavy payoff that I’ve noticed you seem to like.

    I love Disturbed and I thank you for checking them out. I appreciate the honest review, too. If you’re willing to give them another listen sometime, you might try Stricken, Stupify, or Inside the Fire. This is truly their only song with such shocking lyrical content, but that part is a metaphor, as you suggested. “Mommy” is meant to refer to the greater society and part of the hook is, “…madness is the gift that has been given to me.” That might help put things into context…or not.

For a lot people being abused as children was a part of life.. for me personally.. it gives a voice to those of us that lived in silence while it happened. And believe it not, for myself gives a sense of relief.. that some one has vocalized what I felt at that time. Just my thoughts.. others will no doubt relate or not relate in different ways.
