 The songs become more engaging as the listens progress, not only for their strong charge but also thanks to the musical games these four “doctors” of music manage to set up.

 What matters is the refinement of this music, the lucid fanaticism with which it is played and composed; songs so cleverly structured that they can simultaneously follow a coherent “melodic” line represent a true rarity within extreme metal.

The album's atmosphere may be lacking, but the technical skill and creativity more than compensate. Discover the intricate world of Martyr's Hopeless Hopes—listen now to experience technical death metal at its finest.

 The biggest flaw is the composition of the songs on this "Discordia" which, although refined and very elaborate, ends up leaving the listener with a handful of flies.

 Nothing to say about the technical level, still very high for each member; the drummer maintains very high speeds rich in syncopations and physically very demanding.

Misery Index's album Discordia shows high technical skill and maintains the band’s blend of brutal death and hardcore punk. However, the album suffers from a lack of new ideas and compositional freshness, making most songs feel lukewarm and uninspired compared to its predecessor Retaliate. While the musicianship and production are strong, the overall impact is diluted, resulting in a decent but forgettable extreme metal release. Discover Misery Index's Discordia and decide if their brutal metal sound still breaks new ground or plays it safe.

 Not even from Cadavere Cannibale could one expect them to be so Brutal as to make a second copy of a copied album by adding two songs that are copies of other songs from their previous, easily available albums!

 Cadavere Cannibale, after my mom, are consecrated as the most Brutal group of all time.
