Disturbed: This Moment (2011) - Song Review

Official Score = 2 1/2 Devils

I will be honest and say that I really like Disturbed... They are a great heavy metal band that actually gave me a lot of hope in a world that has been awash in popular music that includes teeny bopper singers that are meant to get 14 year old girls excited, (take that anyway you want... And trust me when I say that you are probably right... Sad!)

But for headbangers like myself from way back, seeing the downfall of great music in the late 90s through the early part of the new millennium was not only sad, but it was maddening, and thus I was glad to find bands like, 'Disturbed'... Now I will be honest and say that I was pretty sad to see that they have kind of gone on to other projects... Still they do rock!

I must say that, 'The Moment', from their album, 'The Lost Children' (2011), may not be the best, but it is not bad!

'This Moment' may not be the best song they have done, but it certainly is not the worst!

 Don't get me wrong, this song is fun, and it is cool that it was used in the soundtrack to, Transformers (2007), but it didn't have that pulse pounding element that most of the rest of their songs have... Most of their songs are like a watching a good horror movie or reading a good horror novel in and of itself, but this song is sort of like, 'listening to the end credits...' Definitely worth listening to if you like to wait for everyone else to leave the theater first... But otherwise kind of useless...

For the fans, the lyrics to: The Moment, by: Disturbed!

You will remember this moment as you dig into me
And from your smile now it seems as if you liked it
You'd better cherish this moment as you dig into me
You'll never get another chance at this

I won't stand another minute of your questioning me
You hear me, bitch, stop the interrogations over
I can't handle the feeling of your pestering me
How would you like to make my favorite list

No, you can't reneg
I love to see you beg

Dream this moment as you run away
You will only separate me from all I believe
This moment in brutality
You're the one who kept on pushing till I made you bleed

It seems your pride has been stolen since you stood up to me
I'll tell you now you know I think I really like it
So, learn a lesson from someone
Who will never repeat the many tragic mistakes of his past

I hope you savor this moment as you're still on your feet
So keep it quiet now, I think you're gonna like it
Words have their consequences when they're spoken to me
Better be careful when you're writing checks

Don't you question how
I stand above you now

Dream this moment as you run away
You will only separate me from all I believe
This moment in brutality
You're the one who kept on pushing till I made you bleed

Now, you know the answer, save yourself from danger
I cannot forget how all of this began
I know you know the answers, save yourself from danger
Beaten by a stranger, blood still on his hands

Dream this moment as you run away
You will only separate me from all I believe
This moment in brutality
You're the one who kept on pushing till I made you bleed
