Harald Berger, the man behind Dishumanized, isn't your average metalhead. This guy's got a story, a real story. He's been thrashing and screaming since the dawn of the millennium, starting with Diabolic Voices, then Zerofour. Just the titles alone 'The Desert of Reality', 'The Downfall of Humanity', say a lot about the vision behind his music.
But band life, as we all know, can be a rollercoaster. Line-up changes, creative differences… it's enough to make you wanna scream into a pillow (or maybe into a microphone, if you're Harald!). So, in 2017, he took matters into his own hands, creating Dishumanized, a solo project where he calls the shots. No more band drama, just pure, unadulterated metal fury.
His debut album, "The Maze of Solitude," dropped in 2023, and it's a monster. Think thrash, think death metal, but with a twist. You'll hear echoes of Iron Maiden, Pink Floyd, even Rammstein, a delicious blend of influences that's totally unique. It's not just about the music though; there's a message here, a powerful one.
Dishumanized is a raging critique of our increasingly technological, dehumanized world. We're all glued to our smartphones, becoming 'smombies,' blindly stumbling through life, right? Harald calls it out: the brainwashing by mass media, the worship of 'optimization,' the creeping dependence on technology that turns us into automatons. It's a potent message, delivered with the raw energy of true metal.
But it's not all doom and gloom. There's a glimmer of hope, a rebellious spirit in Dishumanized's sound. It's a call to arms, a reminder that we're not just cogs in the machine; we're human beings, capable of critical thought, capable of resistance. And if that resistance sounds like a furious blend of thrash and death metal, well, all the better!
Harald's got big plans for Dishumanized. Live shows with a full band? Absolutely. More albums with guest musicians? You bet. This is just the beginning. Give 'The Maze of Solitude' a listen and let yourself get pulled into Harald's fiercely human musical resistance.
