This came out in 1999 – or at least that’s when I got it. Here’s what I said about it back then (with some minor editing):
The title isn’t the only thing that dates back to the Bush administration; thundering Brooklyn foursome Biohazard have been stomping the terra since the ’80s. Trouble is, that’s where their music is stuck.
New World Disorder ignores the industrial-strength changes and electro-shock treatments metal has undergone lately for the old-world thrash-funk — mountainous guitars, plate tectonic bass, kinetic drums — of bands such as Prong and Faith No More. Too bad every Korn-fed band these days does this — and makes it sound fresher. Biohazard’s latest lives up to their name — it’s powerful, but basically a waste.
