Diskord
Diskord is a band from Oslo. The band was started in 1999. Diskord's music can be categorized as doomy, progressive/technical death metal, while several critics have labeled the band as hard to classify genre-wise.[1][2][3] Nevertheless, their releases have been critically acclaimed, as for instance evidenced by Austin Weber's piece in the No Clean Singing webzine: "Regardless of what comes out this year, I will be jamming Dystopics a lot; in retrospect. it’s my favorite death metal album from last year",[4] and their inclusion in Norwegian newspaper Tønsberg Blad's list of best albums of the year.[5]
